Situated within the rolling hills of Hereford Township sits this stunning and secluded 99-acre horse farm. Deer Crest Farm, established circa 1867, is a 4 bedroom/1.5 bath stone farmhouse with many modern day updates (electric, back up generator, central air, insulation, windows, hardwood floors, and heating system). Approach the front porch of the home and you will immediately notice the meticulous landscaping and a front porch that spans the entire front of the home. Enter through the front door and be welcomed by a large center hall with glistening hard wood floors, that provides access to either side of the home and the second floor. The one side of the home has in-law suite capabilities with a separate entrance, kitchen, and stairwell to the second-floor bedroom. The main part of the home consists of a living room, kitchen, and dining room. The living room is complete with a stone fireplace, hardwood floors, and exposed ceiling beams. The dining room is stunning and will be the talking piece any time guests are visiting and provides access to the covered pool patio. The second floor consists of 4 large bedrooms and a full bathroom. The master bedroom has original wide plank floors and a stone fireplace to keep extra cozy during the winter months. The owner didn t take any shortcuts bringing all the major systems to modern day standards, and with a little personal touch modernizing the d cor, this home will be a showpiece for years to come. If the home itself doesn t have you sold, the grounds of Deer Crest Farm will take your breath away! Surrounding this stunning home is an in-ground pool (with newer liner), bank barn with horse stalls, numerous garages and other outbuildings, white vinyl fenced pastures for any animals to roam, and a pond. The 99 acres of land consists of both farm fields and woods, and covers both sides of Township Road, with the acreage across from the house adjacent to the Hereford Township Park. This amazing property offers unlimited opportunities. Whether you are looking for a horse farm, hunting location, multi-family estate, business opportunity, development possibilities, the options are endless. The farm is part of Pennsylvania ACT 319 (Clean and Green) to keep taxes extremely reasonable. While the farm is rather secluded, it is located just two miles from Bear Creek Ski Resort and is a short drive from major thoroughfares including, Routes 100, 78, 29, and the Northeast Extension of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Opportunities like this farm are very rare to find. Act quickly before the chance at this farm passes!

RC
Rural Conservation District
In accordance with the objectives of the Hereford Township and Washington township Joint Municipal Comprehensive Plan, and the purpose statements and community development objectives set forth in Article I of this Ordinance, the RD- Rural Conservation District is established to promote the conservation of the rural, heavily environmentally constrained, and largely wooded landscape that characterizes much of Hereford Township, particularly the hilly terrain that constitutes a portion of the federally designated Pennsylvania Highlands and an extension of the Oley Hills, a Berks County conservation priority. The regulations set forth herein are intended to achieve the following specific purposes: To preserve significant woodlands, thereby assuring Township residents of the continued benefits derived from them, including but not limited to natural diversity, stormwater management, groundwater recharge, buffering of human activity, reduction of wind velocity, and production of oxygen; To preserve the quality and quantity of Township water resources, including both surface waters and groundwater; To protect steeply sloped areas from unnecessary disturbance and inappropriate development, thereby preventing the erosion of soils, increase surface water runoff, and siltation of surface waters; To preserve the scenic rural character that is a crucial element of community identity, particularly in the central part of the Township; to preserve open space areas which are not necessarily used for agricultural purposes, but have landscape qualities which support the rural-agricultural character of Hereford Township or have historic features that represent the heritage of the Township; and To further preserve the overall rural character of Hereford Township through the use of Transferrable Development Rights which enable residential development to be directed to more appropriate locations.
