Welcome to your dream home in the heart of Reading, MA! This exquisite single-family residence radiates elegance and comfort. Enter into the family room, where a skylight bathes the space in natural light, highlighting the plush wall-to-wall carpet and the stunning windows with custom shades. The living room invites warmth and charm with its classic fireplace, gleaming hardwood floors, and sophisticated recessed lighting. The kitchen is a chef's delight, featuring Caesar stone countertops and a wine chiller, perfect for entertaining. This home offers two generously-sized bedrooms, each with wall-to-wall carpet (hardwood under), ample closet space, and convenient cable hookups. The 1.5 bathrooms are tastefully designed with radiant heated floors (upstairs only). The home's exterior showcases beautiful shingles and wood in a refined tan hue, adding to its curb appeal. This residence embodies refined living, combining style and functionality in a serene neighborhood abutting Conservation.
The roof looks brand new and the siding seems to be in good shape. The basement isn't big, but it has some potential to be finished. The boiler looks newer, but the oil tank seems older. The backyard is small and behind it is all wetlands and...
conservation.

Yes it's true, the stars have aligned. Welcome to 16 Plymouth Rd. in Reading! This lovely Cape is just the sweetest place ever. Oozing with charm, this beautiful home features a front to back fireplaced living room that opens through two (!) sets of French doors onto a glassed solarium-like family room. (Past owners have used this space as a third bedroom.) The adorable kitchen has a farmers door and center kitchen island. The light-filled dining room and half bath complete the first floor. The second floor boasts two bedrooms and a full bath. We can wait to have you visit this weekend when we can show off the beautiful lot, yard and surroundings. Abutting conservation land, you'll enjoy the back deck, the singing birds and all of the privacy. Close to town center and route 93.
