Description

Welcome to 1408 Garfield Avenue, an end-of-row brick townhouse in the heart of Wyomissing Borough, set along one of its most charming, tree-lined streets and the beloved parade route.
This home offers the space, character, and location buyers are looking for, with the opportunity to make it your own. Inside, you’ll find a standout living room with impressive scale, anchored by a striking wood-burning fireplace and mantle that naturally draws the eye and creates a warm, inviting centerpiece. A spacious dining room sits just beyond. Both spaces feature original hardwood floors and large windows that fill the home with gorgeous natural light, highlighting the home’s early 1900s charm. A charming dual-entry staircase, accessible from both the living room and kitchen, adds to the home’s character and flow.

An additional rear nook includes a ¾ bath and access to the backyard, offering flexibility for future updates or reconfiguration.
Upstairs, the second floor features four bedrooms, two larger front rooms and two equally sized rear rooms, along with a full bath. A bonus upper-level space provides even more potential for a home office or an additional living area. Ceiling fans are installed throughout the bedrooms for added comfort.
The exterior continues to impress with a covered front porch, perfect for enjoying summer evenings or the annual 4th of July parade, plus a backyard complete with a deck, firepit area, and alley access.
Recent updates include new south-facing windows, newer stainless steel kitchen appliances, a new furnace installed this fall, central A/C replaced in 2019, and a whole-house humidifier. With its solid brick construction, end-of-row privacy, and unbeatable Wyomissing location, 1408 Garfield Avenue is a great opportunity for buyers looking to personalize a home while enjoying timeless character and everyday livability. ***OFFERS DUE BY 7:30PM ON 4/26/26.***
