About This Property

217 Cherry Drive is sure to please a discriminating buyer who loves "old Wyomissing" but also wants  beautiful new updated living spaces. This home has had a complete top-to-bottom makeover that has maintained  classic charm & character while incorporating all of the features that today's homeowner desires. This 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home features an expanded  2nd floor primary  bedroom suite with a large walk-in closet and a beautifully tiled full bath. That primary bath will deliver a spa-like experience &  it is stunning.  The 2nd BR is spacious as well. The second full bath features a tub/shower combination and a double-bowl vanity. The 3rd BR is on the 3rd fl with the original curved railing and open stair, and is a quiet hideaway. The first floor living room/family room provides a wood-burning fireplace, and just off the living room is a large office/den, on the 1st fl. That den/study has it's own entrance from the outside. Also off the LR is a bright and expanded entry to the  splendid dining room with wainscot and a coffered ceiling. The kitchen has been remodeled, features new cabinetry and granite countertops and a seating/counter area that also links the  kitchen and dining room. The new appliances and backsplash finish the space. Just off the kitchen is a new half bath and a 1st floor laundry. All the new interior lighting & plumbing fixtures are  beautiful throughout the home. The basement offers lots of dry storage and a Bilco exit to the rear yard. All of the mechanicals are 100% replaced with all new electrical wiring, new water supply lines and drain lines, and 2 new HVAC systems to properly heat and cool the entire home. The windows have been replaced with energy-efficient units; every entry door has been replaced. There is new lighting both inside and outside. New siding and trim, which is rot-and-bug resistant, has been installed, and there is a new backyard deck, and lots of fresh mulch and manicured shrubbery areas around the house. Cherry Drive is a half-circle, tucked into old Wyomissing and close to the library, Reading Hospital, Penn Avenue, the creek and everything... yet is set apart in it's own small, peaceful neighborhood.
