About This Home
As of July 2018Farr Road's Story__this quality Jepsen Builder brick home is located in the distinctive Wyomissing community of Birdland. These sellers are only the second owners of the home and enjoyed many, many years of memories in this lovingly cared for multi-level home. The floor plan of this home offers the most efficient use of the property's footprint with three levels of living space and one level to the basement for laundry/storage. The main level features a large open concept between the living, dining and den/sunroom with direct passage to the kitchen. A step down to the breakfast room from the kitchen with tranquil backyard views and another step down to the family room with brick fireside warmth, sliding doors to the patio/pool area and a conveniently located powder room! This "must have" spacious mud room enters from the driveway and offers a place for everyday items to be stored out of sight with lots of closets. The bedroom quarters are on the upper level with the Master tucked at the far end of the house surveying the serene yard views! Three additional bedrooms, a hall bathroom and pull down steps to the attic storage complete this level. Access to the rear grounds from the family room and an egress between the dining room and den. A concrete patio and pool deck curves around the pool and spa with many flowering plants plus year-round shrubs/trees to provide a nice botanical view and privacy buffer. The deep end of the pool is 10' with a diving board! You'll never want to leave home with comfortable spaciousness & entertaining flow throughout this home!
