450 FOUNTAIN AVE Reading, PA 19606

Charm & Character abound at this hilltop property with huge pool and brand new HVAC (complete central air and heat system)! High up on Mount Penn overlooking the Antietam and Exeter valleys and surrounding hills in the distance lies this lovely, ultra-complete property with everything you need. Well-built with stone and brick, this magnificent home on over a half an acre boasts a pool bigger than most hotels would even have, and a view from the pool reminiscent of something you'd see on a magazine cover or an expensive home rental website. Pool upgrades include a new $10,000 heater and $6,000 pool cover. Two distinct porches are perfectly placed for your enjoyment: The large front porch with views of Neversink Mountain, and equally big screened in private back porch right off the kitchen. The first-floor layout is ideal with its half-bathroom between the kitchen and dining room which makes a square with the living room and great room while hardwood floors highlight the surface. Upstairs a nice long office/play room compliments the three very nice sized bedrooms, including the spacious master bedroom with a retro-looking master bath inside. Plenty of storage here with an attic and basement with several rooms. Lots of parking with a long driveway and a garage deep enough for two cars or plenty of your equipment. Perfect for pets or children with the fenced in area in the backyard. Antietam is a lovely place to live with multiple lakes, parks, well known hiking trails and several long-time, popular boutique neighborhood restaurants including the iconic and legendary Stokesay Castle about 300 yards through the woods. Close to everything yet tucked away, don't miss this impressive yet affordable gem on top of the hill. Click on the video icon for a stunning virtual tour.
