About This Home
As of July 2020This splendid early Germantown Victorian sits in the midst of a gardeners' paradise. Hostas, bleeding hearts, mature roses, hydrangeas, lilies, columbine, clematis and so much more make the 333 foot deep lot lush and glorious. And the 3-story residence with newer slate mansard roof is an outstanding example of late 19th century architecture in the Tulpehocken Station Historic District on the National Register of Historic Properties. With 3,561 square feet and cooled by 21st century central air (!), it offers distinctive woodwork, 10 foot ceilings, crown moldings, handsome fireplace mantels, both oak and random-width pine floors, and an abundance of sunshine with oversize windows facing southwest. Some details: 1st FLOOR: covered front porch with new deck and rails, broad entry hall with stained glass; large living room with marble fireplace mantel, sunny bay window and french doors to the porch (this room has been used by the current owner as an art studio for many years); formal dining room that could easily seat 12, with bay window, ceiling fan and french doors to rear patio; the swinging door leads to a butler pantry with cabinetry and closet; powder room; grand-sized eat-in kitchen with gas cooking, refrigerator, coal/wood stove and enough space for table and chairs; rear stairs to 2nd floor; kitchen exits to mudroom fully renovated about 2 years ago to accommodate washer and dryer; exit to patio and deep gardens. 2nd FLOOR: 3 large bedrooms: rear has closet, fireplace mantel, door to balcony that overlooks gardens; middle bedroom has closet and shares a full ceramic tile bathroom with sink, shower stall and toilet with the front bedroom that has bookshelves along one wall and two closets. These rooms are amazingly sunny. Hall bath with ceramic tile offers shower over tub, sink and toilet. 3rd FLOOR: 2 nice bedrooms, a large attic storage room, full bath with soaking tub. BASEMENT: full, unfinished, with gas domestic hot water heater, high efficiency gas hot air heat and central air, 100 AMP CB electric panel, separate floored storage room with drop ceiling. Please note: replacement windows in kitchen and on 2nd and 3rd floors, new porch decking and rails, quite wonderful custom-built shed in yard, top roof new about 15 years ago and new slate mansard installed more recently. Sellers can be flexible on settlement date. This wonderful property is being sold "as-is". Sellers' Disclosure and Inspection report available for review and posted here. Showings will begin on Wednesday, June 17.
