Stately Old Wyomissing Elegance The stately exterior of this gorgeous, brick colonial home catches the eye of any passerby on this quiet street in the heart of old Wyomissing. Nestled on nearly a third of an acre, this property exudes classic character with numerous restored features and elegant touches throughout, plus a newer roof, replacement windows, and more. Venture up to the covered front porch where a wood ceiling and recessed lighting pull you into the foyer’s vestibule, embellished by stunning woodwork. To the left, you will find the elegant, yet cozy living room with built-in shelving, crown molding, and boasting a double-sided gas fireplace with ornamental, wood mantel and surround that connects to the sunroom and breakfast room. The same patterned hardwood flooring in the living room can be found in the dining room where a coffered, square ceiling adds unique elegance. On the other side of the gorgeous fireplace is the bright sunroom with 3 walls of windows, built-in benches, crown molding & direct access to the back patio. Continue to the beautiful breakfast room where you can savor every sip of morning coffee surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the backyard, a vaulted ceiling with skylights, access to the back paver patio, and travertine flooring that flows to the kitchen. The family chef will love the kitchen’s Viking gas stove, farm sink, custom cabinetry, large pantry, built-in refrigerator and dishwasher with matching cabinet panels, eat-in island, and peninsula for extra seating, as well the vaulted ceiling with skylight and a butler's pantry with two wine fridges and enriched by tile backsplashes, mosaic tile work, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, the Master Suite awaits with patterned hardwood flooring, crown molding, walk-in closet, access to private, front balcony and a full bath with tile floors, double vanity, and three-piece glass and tile shower. Two additional bedrooms with hardwood flooring are down the hall; one with brick wall, vaulted, wood ceiling, direct access to the shared bath with tile shower and tub and a marbled-countertop vanity. Up to the third level, there is a spacious fourth bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and three dormers, private bathroom, and extra storage and closet space, while downstairs, the lower level has both an unfinished storage area and a finished space enhanced by tile floor, brick pillars, and a brick, gas fireplace. Kick back and enjoy any season on one of the two tiers of patios. One brick paver patio with an awesome brick gas fireplace under a sturdy, decorative lattice steps down to a large paver patio, perfect for hosting friends as kids play in the large driveway off the 3-car detached garage or in the flat backyard. And enjoy the unbeatable setting with the Wyo high school, fields, park system, pool, Penn Ave, and more just a short walk away.
