Property Description
This 4 bedroom brick Victorian two story home has so much character and charm. Here is your chance to own a piece of Berks County history. Circa 1878, this home is one of the first built in Lower Alsace Township, in fact it was built prior to the separation of Lower Alsace from Alsace in 1888. Home has beautiful curb appeal with the original shutters and ornate wood trim. Enter into the living room which feels grand boasting 9' ceilings and gorgeous hardwood flooring, Pellet stove, deep window sills, and flows nicely into the large dining room. 29-handle eat in kitchen offers tile countertops and backsplash, stainless appliances and a rare built in original pull down ironing board. Just off the kitchen is the large covered porch, a great place for grilling and entertaining family and friends. The first floor office/study offers floor to ceiling built in shelving and cabinets. Upstairs there are 4 generous size bedrooms and a full bath. The walk up attic has been already roughed in for another full bathroom and would make an incredible master suite with exposed beams, brick walls and a little imagination. The basement has a charm of its own with partially exposed stone walls and high ceilings. The attached oversized garage could easily fit 2 compact cars going almost the entire length of the house. Would like to use the garage for something else, no worries, there is also off street parking behind the home. You must see this home to truly appreciate all that it has to offer, large spacious rooms and tons of space all in a convenient location just minutes from everything.
