About This Home

As of September 2020

YES, WE'RE UNDER CONTRACT, BUT OFFERS CAN STILL BE MADE! Privacy, seclusion, and beautiful views await you in this spacious, contemporary home nestled on a wooded hilltop. This custom built home offers a functional open layout for family togetherness, as well as sizeable bedrooms for relaxing solace. Newly installed front steps take you up to a welcoming front deck and main entryway. Once inside, you will see the dazzling main floor that boasts beautiful hardwood flooring (milled from trees on the property), stunning vaulted ceilings, large wood burning fireplace with custom stone tile hearth, capable of producing 10,000 to 80,000 BTU output per hour of heat with two outside combustion air intakes for maximum efficiency. Also, a beautiful array of windows facing south - allowing for brilliant light, warmth, and energy-efficiency. The eat-in kitchen has plenty of gorgeous cherry cabinetry, large island with sink and breakfast bar, tall stools, pendant lighting, ceiling fan, and bump-out dining area. You will also find a formal dining room with ashtray ceiling, laundry room, a butler s pantry with included wine fridge, plenty of closet space, and entrance to oversized two-car garage. Two sets of French doors lead to a large deck with gas grill and an endless view of preserved farmland. Stairs to the second level lead to a curved balcony overlooking the first floor open space. The amazing Master Bedroom suite features tiled shower stall with glass doors, separate soaking tub, new tiled flooring, walk-in closet, vaulted ceiling with fan, and an exit to front deck. There is an additional, newly updated full in-law style living space with kitchen, full bath, laundry hookup, bedroom, and living room. Framing exists for adding a private entrance. Three more good size bedrooms remain, one with vaulted ceiling and French doors ready for deck/private entrance to be added. The huge finished walk-out basement is ready for all types of fun possibilities with custom bar and room enough for pool table, dance floor, entertainment center, projects, or work areas, and features epoxy flooring and a separate utilities/storage area. A constant supply of hot water is provided via two specially equipped water heaters, and the energy efficient heater is supplied by two 100 gallon propane tanks. This wonderful home is in a rural setting yet close enough to major routes to shopping, dining, and entertainment. Green Lane Park Reservoir is just minutes away, or take in a ball game with the Reading Phillies. Less than an hour away are Dorney Amusement Park, Wind Creek Event Center/Casino, Steel Stacks Entertainment, and Bethlehem Musikfest. Adventure a little further to ski in the Poconos, head to the Jersey Shore, visit historic Philadelphia or the always fascinating New York City. Make your appointment today to see this spectacular one of a kind home!
