Dating from the early 1700s, The Gregory House is truly one of Berks County's most fascinating and historic homes. Its unusual architecture with a massive central stone chimney and unique roof structure make it an intriguing study. A trove of research has been collected and will be passed to the next steward of this piece of history. The present owners have made the Gregory House into a wonderful, welcoming home with a custom kitchen that is a pleasure to see and will impress the most discerning cook. Hand built by a master carpenter the cabinetry houses hidden drawers, sub-zero refrigerator, La Cornue 5 burner range and a 28" porcelain farmhouse sink. The kitchen also boasts beautiful wide plank floors and an immense walk in fireplace with a blue-stone hearth. The great room is really charming with a cast iron wood stove and original open beams and random width floors. Stairs lead to the second floor which offers a splendid retro bathroom with lavender tub and sink. There are three very nicely proportioned bedroom that all have the feel of a favorite bed and breakfast inn. This property has lovely landscaping created over the past 20 years by the owner whose skill and care as a horticulturist would be hard to match. The pool and pool house, designed by Cushing and Henderson in close collaboration with the owners, are quite spectacular. The 50' pool is surrounded by a blue-stone patio and flanked on one side by a stunning pool house, built in the style of a bank barn, with full kitchen and bath, 20' ceiling and a large vine covered veranda. In addition there is a small cottage at the entrance to the property that is currently leased. NOTE: BATHROOM COUNT INCLUDES COTTAGE AND POOL HOUSE.
