About This Home
As of July 2015Opportunity is knocking. Come and see this 9yr old "customized" 4 BR Denver II model situated on an almost .4 A lot that backs to trees and farmland beyond. No backyard neighbors here. Over $35,000 in upgrades were added at the time of construction including the gorgeous leaded glass and Masonite special order front door and the 2 smooth tapered columns in lieu of the porch railing that was the standard for this model. The owners also chose a side entry garage with an extra 16 x 10 turnaround macadam drive way and a large single insulated garage door with keyless entry and automatic garage door opener. A 700 sq ft. curved concrete patio was added and is perfect for outdoor entertaining. And with double spot lights, you can party even when the sun goes down. Inside, the foyer and hall are light hardwood and the first floor has 5 1/4" baseboards. The home has both a large formal living room and formal dining room and a spacious FR with gas FP flanked by 2 windows, which, in addition to the triple window on the back wall, lets in tons of wonderful sunshine. The heart of the home is the upgraded kitchen with maple cabinetry and upgraded contemporary handles. The countertops are corian, and the appliances are stainless steel: gas stove, dishwasher, built in microwave, and refrigerator. The island also has handy drawer rollouts for pots, pans and small appliances. All of the lighting is upgraded included the 3 hanging lights over the island and the chandelier in the dining room and ceiling fan in the family room, as well as all the lights in the hall. The home also has an elite natural gas heating system and central air as well as central vac. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a separate bath and walk in closet that has a California custom closet system, which the owner is loath to part with. (This closet was actually featured in an article in Berks County Living.) All the other 3 bedrooms are spacious with ample closets. The powder room and master bedroom and bath and hall have been recently painted in today's modern colors. The basement is partially finished with drywall, a wet bar, and half bath and has been the site of some memorable Halloween parties. Close to major highways, it is an easy commute to Reading or Allentown. Don't miss out on this one owner home listed for the first time.
