About This Home

This is one to see!! Move in ready with a new roof and oil fired hot air furnace plus a high capacity central cooling system. A great place to live in the heart of Old Wyomissing just off the prestigious Wyomissing Blvd and Reading Blvd roundabout on a beautiful tree lined street. This classic Dutch Colonial has been expanded by the current owner to over 3600 square feet with the highest quality of materials and construction. The interior mill work is all stain grade solid Hickory in it's natural state. Enter this wonderful home into the bright and sunny living room featuring a brick wood burning fireplace, a double hardwood front and a side door to the covered porch. The adjacent dining room has a stunning tray ceiling and top hat lighting. It is open to the spacious eat in kitchen. This well planned kitchen has a casual eating area plus a large breakfast bar. Bring all of your cooking utensils, pots and pans - there are solid Hickory cabinets with Birch interiors in just about every size and use imaginable. Yards of counter space make food preparation a breeze. The family room is also bright and features a door to the sun room and a tiled area that is plumbed for a future wet bar. The sun room features a full wall of windows with access to the large deck and rear yard. Convenient first floor bedroom is off the bright and cheery sun room or and would make a great reading room as well. The large 2nd floor master bedroom is complemented by the spacious master bathroom. There are 2 additional bedrooms on the 2nd floor. The bonus loft level is bright and offers plenty of room for additional beds or play area.
