Bring your family and horses home to this beautiful 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath house in a quiet, country setting, not far from Reading or Allentown. When you first walk through your front door, the two story entry way with turned stairs and a chandelier, is warm and inviting. The custom, eat in kitchen, with a two tiered island, pantry, and hardwood floors is the perfect place to sit around the table with your family and reminisce about your day. If you enjoy hosting dinners for the holidays or any occasion, the large formal dining room with chair rail is just what you need.

The basement is partially finished with room for a small kitchen, wine cellar, media room, and living area. Outside, you can relax on your large front porch after a busy day, or enjoy your home grown pears, apples, and grapes on your deck.
