About This Home
As of November 2018Step inside this Frank Lloyd Wright inspired design and modern marvel by architect Penrose Spohn. Situated on one acre of ground covered in lush foliage and atop flowing streams. This amazing home is perched on stone pillars formulated with careful design and 65' free spanning Vierendel girders, 2 x 12 roof and floor joists that rest on hangers and diagonally formed walls that work with X braces. Inside you'll be greeted with a stair case leading up to an open floor plan with sycamore floors. The living room boasts a log burning woodstove and suspended ceiling panels holding radiant heat coils. No stone was left unturned or detail left out. Over the years there have been numerous articles written about this house including the Berks Historic Property Tour and Garden Talk. We have the original blue prints, articles and information that go along with this authentic home. You'll be amazed at the design as well as the serene environment outside boasting stone walls, decks, streams and beauty. This home is a mastery of craftsmanship. Mr. Spohn said it best about the home, "a conscious and continuous effort was made toward the simplicity, clarity, and order". Call today for a tour.
