Nestled on a lush, one-acre private lot in the scenic Hamburg Area School District, this ranch-style home offers the perfect blend of peaceful rural living and modern comfort. The property immediately impresses with its expansive front yard and a sense of seclusion that is rare to find. A spacious driveway and an attached one-car garage with side entry provide ample parking for guests, while the surrounding greenery creates a serene backdrop for everyday life. Inside, the home features a thoughtful, open floor plan designed for effortless flow and accessibility. The main level hosts 3 comfortable bedrooms and a full bath, making it an ideal choice for those seeking the convenience of entry-level living. The heart of the home is the inviting eat-in kitchen, which serves as a natural gathering spot with plenty of space for a large table. Modern upgrades, including a ductless mini-split cooling system, ensure the interior remains crisp and comfortable throughout the warmer months. The living experience extends to the partially finished basement, with a huge rec room and 4th bedroom. Sustainability and coziness go hand-in-hand here, as the home is equipped with 2 pellet stoves, offering a charming and efficient way to stay warm during winter. Step outside to the fenced-in rear yard, that provides a secure area for recreation or pets. The property also includes a functional outbuilding for additional storage. Located just a short drive from local amenities yet tucked away from the hustle and bustle, this Bernville gem represents a unique opportunity to own a slice of quiet countryside paradise.

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $78,800 — well below the ~$111,703 its asking price implies at Berks County's common level ratio (34.4%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $1,184/year. Worth pricing in.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($78,800, 1994 base year) × current millage — portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only — verify with Berks County before relying on it. Learn more: PA property tax calculator · Common Level Ratio by county.
