Description

157 Tulpehocken Ave • West Reading, PA 19611 Back on the market, financing fell through (not appraisal). This beautifully restored 1920 Arts & Crafts / American Foursquare sits on a large corner lot ( 0.21 acre) with rare, detached 3-car garage, a unicorn in West Reading. The home first hit the market in early August and went under contract within days; it’s back only due to buyer financing, and we expect strong interest again. Book your tour ASAP. WHY YOU"LL LOVE IT:  Killer kitchen, built for cooks. Custom KraftMaid cabinetry to the ceiling, Taj Mahal level-7 granite, oversized island with prep sink, and a six-piece matching Thermador suite—built-in fridge, 5-burner gas range + hood, dishwasher, speed oven/microwave, and wine fridge.  Truly walkable lifestyle. Stroll to shops, cafes, and Kimberton Whole Foods at The Knitting Mills—the store is steps from bustling West Reading—and enjoy year-round festivals on Penn Ave (Fall Fest, farmers’ market, and more).  Hard-to-find parking & outdoor space. Detached 3-car garage with electric, a thoughtfully landscaped corner lot with custom privacy fencing, window boxes, and multiple spots to gather. INSIDE, THE DETAILS MATTER: A welcoming enclosed sunporch opens to a classic Craftsman living room with brick wood- burning fireplace and custom oak built-ins. Clever window seating hides the radiant heaters and adds storage. An inviting dining room anchors the first floor, adjacent to the magnificent kitchen. The enclosed rear porch flexes beautifully as an office, playroom, craft room—your call. A vintage-chic first-floor full bath retains original tile with an upgraded Kohler pedestal sink. Upstairs: three spacious bedrooms, a second full bath, plus a versatile pass-through 4th bedroom (ideal nursery/office/dressing room). A walk-up leads to the finished third-floor bonus level, currently a home office with access to a charming widow’s watch for mountain and Fire Tower glimpses. The daylight lower level expands your living space with a media/play area, laundry, mechanicals, and walk-out to the side yard. THOUGHTFUL UPGRADES & SYSTEMS:  200-amp electric panel  Seven new Carrier mini-splits for efficient, zoned heating/cooling  New energy-efficient windows throughout + new high-end front door  Fresh interior paint, updated lighting & ceiling fans  Sidewalk replacement coordinated with West Reading Borough, no cost to the new owner upon completion FAST FACTS:  4 bedrooms • 2 full baths (plus full third floor which could be an additional bedroom)  Built 1920; approx. 2, 000+ sq ft of finished living space across four levels  Lot 9, 147 sq ft ( 0.21 acre)  Detached 3-car garage + on-street parking  Corner property in the heart of West Reading’s walkable grid. THE STORY: Originally listed August 11, 2025 and off-market by August 13, this home moved fast. It returns solely due to a failed buyer financing, not condition or appraisal. Act quickly if you missed it the first time. Showing notes: Conveyed in impeccably maintained as-is condition. Contact your agent to schedule a private tour, appointments expected to book quickly this week. Social caption (copy/paste) Back on the market, buyer financing fell through (not appraisal). West Reading unicorn: Arts & Crafts corner lot + detached 3-car garage and a custom KraftMaid + Thermador kitchen. Walk to Penn Ave festivals and Kimberton Whole Foods. First time out, it went under contract in days, don’t miss your second chance. Message for a tour today.Show Description
