About this home

Updated and well-maintained, this city home offers a practical layout and valuable upgrades. It features 3 private bedrooms plus a walk-through room that can serve as an office, nursery, or extra living space. The second-floor laundry adds everyday convenience, while laminate flooring, newer windows, and efficient gas heat provide comfort and easy upkeep. Outside, a smaller fenced backyard offers manageable outdoor space, and a brand new detached garage adds private off-street parking or storage. The entire property is currently rented, with the tenant on a month-to-month lease, providing flexibility for future use as a primary residence or investment. A smart opportunity in a convenient location.

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $27,200 — well below the ~$79,051 its asking price implies at Berks County's common level ratio (34.4%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $1,397/year. Worth pricing in.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($27,200, 1994 base year) × current millage — portals typically reprint the recorded 2025 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only — verify with Berks County before relying on it. Learn more: PA property tax calculator · Common Level Ratio by county.
