Beautiful Berks County Farmette, rich in character and charm, located on a scenic 1.6 +/- acre country lot just outside of Boyertown. The welcoming circa 1850 +/- brick farmhouse boasts an array of historical and vintage elements: exposed beam and wooden ceilings, ornamental woodwork, wainscoting, ornate columned portico entry, double door walk-in fireplace, antique cookstove, and decorative hardware. The first floor features a bright Living Room, spacious Dining Room, Kitchen, Breakfast Room, Full ceramic tile Bathroom, and Sun Room Addition- an exceptional vantage point for viewing the natural beauty just outside the door. A turned staircase leads to the second floor with 3-4 Bedrooms (walk-through design) plus a storage area. The full walk-up attic and basement are great for storage. The detached Summer Kitchen Cottage (24x12) offers additional living space and a unique cookstove; this structure could easily be attached to the main home. Some recent improvements include a new metal roof on both the house and summer cottage in 2019, a new well in 2022, and replacement windows. The in-ground Fronheiser pool has been covered for about 10 years. A large (22'x40') and picturesque red bank barn and secondary outbuilding are great for country farm endeavors. Rolling open grass areas, woodland, and an assortment of ornamental and flowering trees and shrubs create a beautiful backdrop for all sorts of wildlife. Located near orchards and farmlands, this attractive property is also close to shopping, recreation, and major commuter routes.

RR
Rural Residential District
The purpose of the Rural Residential District is to permit moderate residential development, to retain the rural and suburban characteristics of the Township, and to serve as a transition between areas of variable densities. A significant portion of the Rural Residential District is classified as having slight to severe limitations to on-lot sewage disposal due to flooding and a high water table. Development of these areas will be further regulated by the Environmental Protection Overlay Districts.
