About this House

One floor living on a spacious .6 acre lot. This home needs some TLC, but for the right buyer it could be a great opportunity. In the past few years the electrical, plumbing and the heating/central air systems have all been updated. Cosmetic changes (flooring, paint, lighting, etc...) are the majority of what's needed to make this great little house a home. Outside there is a nice covered front porch to relax on with family and friends. The property is very deep and offers a great rear yard lined by woods/trees. Parking is a breeze with a large 4+ car driveway and a detached 1 car garage.

    "Close to all major highways. Congestion along 5th Street Highway with shopping malls and traffic. It stinks here because of the Mushroom growhouses all over the place. There are a lot of impoverished people in this area."
  • Chivvone
    "If you have no car do not move around here, it’s horrible. There is no stores near, you’ll be walking for at least 2 miles and it’s only a Turkey Hill which means it’s super expensive, so if your in foot that’s your only option. "
  • Taylor D.
    "We own a dog, too! There’s a great walking trail near by as well as a dog park within a 10 minute drive. "
  • Chivvone
    "Everything is far, there’s no public transportation and no sidewalks. It’s dark, bushy with no sidewalks. Very scary and creepy at night. "
  • Chivvone
    "There’s alot of kids and families and no one communicates with each other. Everyone stays to themselves, comes and go. "
  • Lnwhggj
    "I like the quietness of my neighborhood, it’s safe, clean, pretty houses. "
  • angelwgreywings7
    "Live in the area, the trucks are a sheer nightmare during the day, using the road as a raceway between Muhlenberg and Maidencreek/Fleetwood. I'd never live here again, it's ridiculous."
  • Jessica A.
    "This is a wonderful area to live quiet and secluded, but yet you are only 5 minutes to stores and everything else you would want to get to is about 10 minutes. Country living with the ammenities of a city within minutes! Great new schools, lots of parks, plenty of things to do in Berks County."
