Along a quiet country road in Berks County's Oley Valley, sits 'Stonegate"; a true Gentlemen's Estate on 15+ park-like acres. The Entrance through the stone pillars and archway and down the tree lined drive lead to the stately stone Colonial Revival home that has been preserved and updated to meet the demands of today's homeowner. The property also features a 2 Bedroom guesthouse, 40'x70' stone bank barn, fencing for animals, 2 detached 2-car garages one with a workshop, in-ground pool, screened pavilion and a quaint pond with footbridge and new aerator. Entry into the main house is through the glass-enclosed Vestibule, which opens into the Foyer where ones eye is immediately drawn to the wrought iron and brass rail staircase and iron-gate with intricate scroll work. A formal dining room with a view to the barn leads into the Butler's Pantry and updated eat-in Kitchen. Off of the foyer is a lovely Living Room with stone fireplace and a placard reminding one that to "Chop your own wood and it will warm you twice"! A 2000 addition created a 28'x28' Great Room that incorporated a once outdoor tiled fountain as a focal point of the room. A view from every window, this room also leads to an outdoor flagstone patio. The back hall features a powder room, laundry room and exposed stonewall of the original house. The second floor features 4 bedrooms and 2 full tiled baths each offering their own unique character highlighted by their original glazed tile. The Master Suite was part of the 2000 addition to this home. Incorporated from the original structure is a sitting room that leads to the grand 18'x26' bedroom, Master Bath, walk-in tiled shower and wardrobe.
