About This Home

As of June 2020

Presenting a unique opportunity to own a part of Pennsylvanian History with a Classic Stone Farmhouse located in beautiful Berks County. Just over 200 years old, with records indicating the original construction circa 1791. Historians will delight in the original wood flooring, beamed ceilings, deep window sills, stone walls and classic metal roofing. Historical Features include a stone walk-in fireplace, wide-plank flooring, inset Bible Boxes, and original wood doors with hardware. Featuring four bedrooms, two Full Baths in around 3000 sq. feet of living space. In 2001 a clever addition created an open plan kitchen and family room area with stone exposed walls and newer upgrades that seamlessly blend with the original features of the home. Plenty of room to grow as the attic is expandable with two potential bedroom spaces. Rear yard has wonderful views of the 3+ acre property, as well as the beautiful brook and rolling farmland. An expansive detached garage can house 5+ cars or can be easily transformed into a working space. This farmette is discretely nestled down a winding driveway just off Rte. 100 and a skip to the PA Turnpike. New well installed in May 2020. Come visit, admire and purchase a piece of PA history today.
