Remarkable mid-19th Century homestead is unspoiled by time! Be the first to see this remodeled 3 BR, 3 bath colonial farm house on almost 3 acres surrounded by 70+ acres of protected land. In 2002 this property was annexed off of the Earl Trust Preserve, which is owned by the Berks County Parks Department. Full of warmth and charm of yesterday, but with all of the modern conveniences and location of today, enjoy the quiet seclusion and incredibly low taxes. The large barn is two stories with additional overhead storage. It is currently being used as a wood shop, a garage and for yard tools, but could be turned into a man cave, additional living space, a game room, a hang out, a mechanics dream or anything zoning would allow. The septic system is oversized to accommodate a 5 bedroom home and has a connection system in place for the barn if it were to be converted into living space. The farmhouse features an 8 x 44 porch on both front and rear of home. The backyard has a 16 x 13 deck and a 32 x 9 deck w/a 10 x 9 covered cabana w/a galvanized tin roof and a built-in kegerator. There is also the original smoke house, a root cellar, a large chicken coop, a wood shed and a fenced animal area measuring 110 x 75. On the inside of this beauty, you will find a lovely dining room with a completely refurbished 5 x 5 x 3 FP with gorgeous wood mantle from the original barn. Both LR/ DR boast bead board ceiling, new white oak flooring w/walnut pegs and deep window sills. The 28 handle kitchen features new granite countertops, a deep sink, a large island and plenty of counter space. Just off of the kitchen is a full bathroom and laundry room area w/sink. There are 3 BRs on the 2nd FL. The main BR has a private bathroom, bead board ceiling, large walk-in closet, deep window sills and 2 ceiling fans. Both bathrooms on the second floor have been remodeled. There is an alcove area at the top of stairs that could serve as an office space or homework station.
