About This Home

As of April 2021

A wonderfully located cottage type home nestled in a wooded valley for that country feel and setting, yet located very close to shopping, restaurants, blue marsh lake, hiking / trails, Penn State Berks campus, and Rt222 for easier travel. Property is rare in location with a stone home that offers newer roof, heating, plumbing, stucco, nicely expanded bathroom with many amenities including walk in tile shower, jet tub, partial heated floor and more. Many new updates to interior of home including built-in shelving and entertainment center and more. Property also offers a gated driveway, tree line and fence on road side for privacy. 12X24 shed/garage and plenty of parking and yard space! If you love wildlife, this is a great location for that also. Other amenities include Security cameras, generator hookup, steel door with keyless entry and an enclosed porch. A property with this solitude is rarely found in this price range especially one that has such conveniences so close!!
