About This Home

As of November 2021

This quintessential Mid-century modern sprawling split level located right on the Boulevard in Old Wyomissing has been updated and remodeled in every way…there is nothing to do but move in! You’ll notice the great curb appeal as you pull up to the house thanks to the tree-lined street, lush professional landscaping and curved paver patio sidewalk which leads you to the front door. Upon entering the home, you’re sure to be impressed with the open and airy feeling - this is truly a home for entertaining! The living room boasts newly refinished natural hardwood floors (which runs throughout the entire home) and a stunning accent wall with a custom tiled fireplace with recessed TV nook (the TV stays with the house), a mantle and a sleek electric fireplace. The kitchen offers a 9-ft Quartz Island with plenty of under cabinets, marbled subway tiled backsplash, Frigidaire Professional line stainless steel appliances, dual ovens, a Soapstone sink, a pantry and a breakfast area with sliders leading out to the patio and another set of sliders leading out to a screened in porch with ceiling fan. The dining room is massive and offers a cathedral ceiling with 2 ceiling fans, the original built in mini wet bar and built- in shelves as well as a wall of sliders again leading out to the screened in porch. The entire home offers an abundance of windows for plenty natural sunshine and breathtaking views to the outside. The first level up is where you will find 3 very generous sized bedrooms with one of them offering a newly updated en-suite bathroom, as well as an updated hall bathroom. The Master retreat is located on the top level and offers plenty of closets and an updated mid-century modern bathroom. The above grade lower-level family room is multi-functional and offers a stone wood burning fireplace, your fourth full bathroom, plenty of cabinets, a sink and a skylight as well as plenty of windows. The TV stays in this room also. The easy entertaining continues outside with a built-in gas grill, a multi-tiered patio and large side yard…large enough for parties or watching the 4th of July parade! There is a large laundry room with a man door for outside entrance, an attic for plenty of storage with a built-in cedar closet, a 2-car garage with attached storage shed and utility sink, a water softener and a radon system. Located 2 blocks to the Wyomissing Park walking trail and the Stone House, as well as close to the hospital and schools.
