About This Home
As of April 2023Tucked behind mature trees and nestled on a private lot, I am excited to call this house my home! I take in all the nature views as I come up the driveway and I am in awe of the 1.82 acres that surrounds the home. As I enter the foyer, I am greeted with the grand Great Room. It showcases a vaulted ceiling, a stunning stone fireplace that serves as the room’s centerpiece and natural light fills the space. Around the corner is the kitchen. It is open and spacious which will be perfect for entertaining my family and friends. I love that the kitchen has an island, wall oven, and ample countertop and cabinet space. The large window providing nature views is a gorgeous backdrop for when I am sharing meals with my family around the table. The sunroom is another place to soak in the views. I can envision myself relaxing in here after a long day. This space could be used for my hobby room, home office or resting watching a good movie. The first floor also provides two bedrooms with a full bath down the hall. Then, up on the second floor, the owner’s suite that has a full bath, walk-in closet and its own private balcony that overlooks the lush greenery of the surrounding trees. Outside is where I plan to be all summer long. I can’t wait to host BBQs and pool parties for my friends and family. I can foresee us sipping beverages and sitting together on the deck or around the pool patio. Or, in the morning, I love the thought of sipping my coffee listening to the waterfall in the background. This home does not lack storage space. I love the attached garage and shed. It can fit all my tools and toys! Also, the location of this home is perfect. Nearby is Meadowbrook Country Club, Willow Hollow Golf Course, Blue Marsh Lake, Plum Creek Farm Market, the Reading Regional Airport, just off the highway, and many shops and restaurants. This home is perfect for seeking peace, privacy, and a connection to nature and I can’t wait to call it mine!
