Listing description

Tucked into Wyomissing’s beloved Birdland neighborhood, 1617 Meadowlark offers the kind of everyday living that feels both elevated and effortless. From the moment you arrive, the circular drive and striking entry set the tone for a home designed to make life feel a little more special—whether you’re welcoming guests, celebrating milestones, or simply enjoying the comfort of a space that has been thoughtfully cared for over the years. Inside, the home’s custom design creates a sense of openness and flow that is ideal for both lively gatherings and quiet moments at home. The expansive ballroom invites you to imagine holidays, celebrations, creative pursuits, or the ultimate flex space tailored to the way you live, while the bright sunroom and private backyard with a saltwater in-ground pool offer a peaceful escape for relaxing, recharging, and enjoying the beauty of every season. Conveniences like the three-stop elevator and the recently updated main bath with steam shower and walk-in tub bring ease and comfort to daily life, while the home’s bright secondary bedrooms and carefully maintained spaces make it easy to settle in and feel at home right away. Designed by Elmer Veres of Muhlenberg, Greene and Veres with a Frank Llyod Wright flavor. Lovingly cared for by the original owners, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy a home with character, warmth and room to truly live well.

Assessment note:this home appears assessed above what its asking price implies at the county's common level ratio. The next owner may have a case for an assessment appeal worth roughly $5,715/year.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($401,600, 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 2025 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.
