About This Home
As of May 2013Have you been waiting for the most unusual property in Berks County? Are you an investor thinking that you missed out on all the really good buys? Are you that visionary buyer who wants a remote location with a view that takes your breath away? If you are not daunted by the winding driveway leading to this home, then this is THE one! Despite having 3 kitchens in the main building, this property is a single family home, but what a home! The fireplace is spectacular and the timbered spiral staircase is unique. The main house has a newer roof with architectural shingles, 200 amp electric and propane gas heat. Many of the rooms open to center courtyard that leads to the pool. There is 2BR apartment above the 2 car detached 32x26 garage, but this is not rentable; it would have to be used by a family member. An additional 32/26 detached garage/workshop is just an extra plus. This one you have to see! This is an "as is" property.
