About This Home

As of May 2014

Stunning 1853 Stone Home with loads of original architectural details, but tastefully updated to also include those modern amenities we all look forward to. That amazing combination of Old and New includes a Foyer, Main floor powder room, updated kitchen with stainless appliances, bright/cheery breakfast room overlooking the rear yard, deep window sills (with replacement windows), curved walls, original moldings and hardwood floors. A focal point of the living room is the brick walk-in fireplace with wood stove; great for cozy winter nights. The addition that was done some 25 years ago, allows for a spacious Master bedroom nicely accented with a stone wall that showcases the 1853 cornerstone and includes a jacuzzi tub. The entire home is meticulously maintained inside and out. The roof was replaced in 2010. A brick circular driveway was added to lead guests to the covered front porch with ceiling fan to enjoy relaxing outdoors from Spring to Fall. The grounds are beautiful, with flowing streams, inground pool with "barzebo", sand area for volleyball; just an amazing location for family gatherings. Additionally, there is an oversized garage and outbuildings providing..parking and storage galore. Character, Outstanding condition and convenience...just minutes from the Shoppes at Wyomissing. In order to have this home ready for the market the sellers of this home have been proactive. This home has been inspected by a professional home inspector.
