Listing description

This is a remarkable opportunity to own a beautiful, fully renovated home on a 1.64 acre lot providing a high elevation off the road in a pristine rural setting. The majority of the lot is fenced and includes a detached, oversized one car garage (24' x 14'), fenced garden area (36' x 21') and a 16' x 10' storage shed with 2 skylights! The grounds are impressive and provide a pastoral view of the countryside, but the inside of the house is equally appealing! This immaculate home offers recessed lighting and ceiling fans in multiple locations, a first floor BR, full bathrooms on both levels, hardwood, tile, and LVP flooring, and a large basement. The Kitchen is a dream with quality granite countertops, tile backspash, ample Shaker cabinets with soft close doors and drawers plus Whirlpool stainless steel appliances (smooth top self-cleaning electric range, microwave over the range with exhaust fan vented outside, dishwasher, and refrigerator). The sunken Primary BR is a nice architectural application, and the other BR on the second floor has its own Powder Room! You will appreciate the custom oak turned staircase and the granite vanity and large scale tile floor in the second floor Bathroom. The wood stove is currently used as the primary source of heat for the house, and the ready-to burn wood stored in the Woodshed is included. There is an oil hot air heating system and central air conditioning, of course. Your comfort is assured as the house is protected by a Guardian by Generac 17kw propane powered, whole house generator! Dual pane, insulated replacement windows add to the comfort factor! Too many details to list. Come see for yourself. You won't be disappointed!

Not reported in the MLS feed

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $76,600, well below the ~$120,375 its asking price implies at Berks County's common level ratio (32.1%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $2,640/year. Factor that into an offer.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($76,600, 1994 base year) × current millage. School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Berks County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
