About This Home
Set on nearly 6 private acres, this contemporary home offers a rare blend of natural beauty, privacy, and modern comfort in a peaceful, tucked-away Berks County community. Surrounded by mature trees, lush landscaping, and vibrant flower beds, the property provides an exceptional retreat enhanced by the soothing sounds of the Little Saucony Creek. Wildlife is plentiful—all of the deer displayed in the basement were harvested on-site during archery season, underscoring the land’s remarkable outdoor potential.
Inside, the home welcomes you with a vaulted ceiling, skylights, and an open kitchen and dining area, perfect for gatherings. The cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and charm. The main level also features two bedrooms and a full bath, ideal for flexible living arrangements. The second level includes loft space, two additional bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with his-and-hers walk-in closets. The primary bedroom connects to the fourth bedroom via a Jack and Jill full bath, featuring a brand-new walk-in shower room and vanity area, combining practicality with a spa-like feel.
The finished basement, constructed with superior pre-installed wall panels with Styrofoam and studs, offers a large recreation room and wet bar, laundry area, powder room, lots of storage and utility space, and a heavily used wood stove that serves as a key heating source in colder months. French doors lead directly to the patio and private six acre lot. The home is equipped with a two-zone hydronic heating system and 200-amp electric service, offering efficient and reliable comfort throughout the seasons. A major highlight is the expansive pole building/garage. Decking from the home’s main level leads directly to the second story of the pole building, a versatile space that could be easily finished for additional living quarters, a studio, office, or guest suite. **Laundry chute, wired for speakers, central vac, wet bar, creek on property!
Relax on the deck or patio, where you can take in the peaceful creek sounds and the natural beauty surrounding the home. Offering nearly 6 acres of privacy, efficient systems, and thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor living spaces, this property is a standout opportunity in Berks County.
