About 805 Margaret St

Welcome to 805 Margaret Street, a 2-story brick home tucked away on 0.17 acre mature lot at the end of a dead-end street. This property's location couldn't be more convenient, quiet yet close to schools, the Reading Hospital, shopping, West Reading's Penn Avenue with restaurants and easy access to major routes nearby. The main level has mostly all refinished hardwood flooring and hosts the living room with gas fireplace, the dining room with 2 built-in corner hutches, the sunroom/family room with vaulted ceiling and skylights, the bar room with exposed brick walls and access to the large rear deck and yard. The kitchen and the powder room complete this level. The upper level has 3 bedrooms all with refinished hardwood floors, the bathroom, the separate laundry room and attic access through panel in the hallway.
