About this House

Picturesque setting in one of Readings most desirable neighborhoods. A short distance to elementary, middle and high schools. Tennis courts, YMCA, park and playground are equally as close. The kitchen and first floor bathroom have recently been renovated. The windows, siding, driveway and gutters have all been replaced within the last 4 years. The hardwood floors have also just been sanded and stained. Easy access to 93, 128 and the train station. The home and its improvements are a bonus, but it is really about the location and the people. If you are looking for a warm inviting neighborhood with a wonderful sense of community, you have found your home. We spent 28 years raising our family in this house and couldn't have been happier. The Birch Meadow area is a very special place, and we will miss it greatly. Open houses 7/17 and 7/18 from 5-7. 7/19 from 10-12 and 7/20 from 12-2.

    "We bought our home here in Reading 13 years ago when our first child was 1. We have 2 now and have been very happy with the schools and arts programs. Lots of walkers and joggers, several solid restaurants and take out places, a liquor store that has the biggest craft beer selection I've ever seen in my life, nice police officers, good road upkeep. I'm very happy to be raising my kids in this town."

    "Plenty of dogs in the neighborhood. Very friendly and most neighbors walk with leases. It is rare but being close to the woods and/or highway there are some fisher cats in recent years. Today a coyote was spotted in the neighborhood. Again, that was reported maybe 7 times in 10 years but pet owners need to keep an eye out for the little ones! "
