Property Description
Nestled in the sleepy village of Seisholtzville, atop a small mountain you escape reality as you are transported back in time to an 1875 Farm house complete with barn and shed. This property is located in Hereford Township, Berks County's Village Preservation District. Throughout the 1.1 acres are lilac bushes, wild grapevines and a babbling Brook that marks the property's boundaries. Two wonderful man-made ponds stocked with koi and other species of fish exist for you to enjoy as you sit on the mahogany side porch in a rocking chair enjoying a tall glass of lemonade. As you enter the house you will find the original flooring, an eat-in kitchen, 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The main floor offers a bedroom/suite that could be used for guests and was added to the house in 1892 (converted summer kitchen). The third floor boasts a beautiful room that could be utilized as a den/study. Via the walk-in closet in the master bedroom there is a private room that could be that "mancave" or used for extra storage. This wonderful property is less than a mile from the Bear Creek Ski Area and less than 10 miles from Powder Valley Ski Area. When in season you can enjoy produce grown and for sale by the Local farmers as well as eggs and meat. On nights that you feel like stepping out for dinner you can enjoy a meal at one of Lehigh Valley's "Best of the Valley" restaurants, the Savory Grille as well as a wonderful neighborhood Deli just a few steps away. This Farm in the Upper Perkiomen Valley School District with all of its character will not be available long, call for your personal showing today.
