About This Home

As of April 2015

Here is your chance to own a one of a kind Converted Bank Barn on Oley Turnpike Road. After 23 years, this property is ready for a new owner. You will appreciate the care that was taken to preserve some of the original architect of the barn while adding the conveniences of home. The bottom of the restored barn offers a very large open space that is currently used as the living room. Use your imagination, this room could be used for entertaining large groups of quests. At one time it was used as a dress shop. Check with zoning if you want to turn it into a venue or shop. The kitchen is large and has over 50 handles including a chef's pantry. Some updating will turn it into a chef's dream. A powder room and furnace room finish the first floor. The original barn stairs were preserved and lead you to the second floor that houses the 4 bedrooms, 2 baths and a sitting area that leads to the patio and large lot just under an acre. This floor is ground level from the back and has also has a very large laundry utility room that could be used for many purposes. The master bedroom has it's own bathroom and walk-in closet. All the bedrooms have nice size closets. The owner believes that the second floor has the original wide plank barn floor under the carpets. The top (attic) floor reveals the original barn roof with peg beams and awaits a purpose. The central air and duct work are also in the top floor but the unit needs to be repaired or replaced. The first floor has heat in the floor and the second floor is heated by hot air. Anderson Windows are throughout. Don't miss your opportunity to own a piece of Berks County history and a home like no other in the neighborhood.
