Listing description

Charming brick cape cod in Muhlenberg Township, tucked behind mature trees and ivy that gives it real curb appeal from the sidewalk. This one has been beautifully renovated top to bottom, with the original hardwood floors freshly restained throughout and updates in every room. The kitchen blends the best of both worlds: original character like the gorgeous garden window paired with stainless KitchenAid appliances, double ovens, a farmhouse sink, and a butcher block island. A gas insert fireplace with brick surround anchors the living space, and the dining area opens through sliders to a huge, level backyard with a pergola-covered patio, ideal for entertaining. Upstairs offers generous, freshly updated bedrooms and a renovated bath. A full basement adds storage or flex space. Outside, a detached two car garage sits down a long private driveway on a lot that feels far bigger than the address suggests. Move-in ready and genuinely turnkey.

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.
