Listing description

1104 Old Swede Road sits on a quarter acre in Amity Township, directly behind Amity Elementary School, with the middle school and township police station within a block. Shopping and the post office are about three miles out, with Route 422 nearby for access to Pottstown and Reading. The kitchen has been updated with granite counters and stainless appliances and opens to the main living area. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are spread across two levels. The property has central heat and air, propane for heating and cooking, and electric for hot water and the balance of the home. Water is served by an on-site well, with public sewer through Amity Township at approximately $201 per quarter. Trash service is owner-selected, with several local carriers available. Outside, a covered gazebo anchors the rear yard, with a fenced garden and animal pen alongside and mature trees screening the wooded acreage behind the property. The detached one-car garage has electric service and a workbench. A parking pad accommodates three vehicles with room to expand, and the majority of the driveway and the area beside the garage belong to this property. Annual property taxes are approximately $2,853, and the home is in the Daniel Boone Area School District.

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $61,600, well below the ~$104,293 its asking price implies at Berks County's common level ratio (32.1%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $1,847/year. Factor that into an offer.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($61,600, 1994 base year) × current millage. School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Berks County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
