Property Description
Green Hills' Story?the approximate build date of 1774 makes this among one of oldest homes in Berks County! This rare central chimney home is a portal in time and consistent with the earliest traditional buildings of this distinct construction entailing stone exteriors, steep roofs, thick walls and small irregularly spaced windows. This would be a mansion compared to the small traditional 2-3 room layouts typically found from this era. This property has over 3,000 SF of wide open space and 3 finished levels, yet the architectural markers are still present?a "winder stair" leading up to the 2nd floor; walk-in fireplace originally used for cooking and brick/wood mantelpiece fireplace on 2nd floor; exposed interior stone walls, open beam ceilings, 18th century doors brought in to match originals, hand-forged 18th-19th century iron hardware can be found on doors and period banisters. This property even includes a third floor setup with bedrooms and a bath in between. Outside you will find a stone and timber framed pavilion with corner firepit at open patio, view of the creek from the front side of the house in winter months and unlimited opportunities for a flower garden along the semi-circle driveway. The sellers put much work & love into this home over the years. They converted doors to windows; rebuilt the stone exterior; replaced all windows, woodwork, electrical and plumbing; the lower level tile done in 2015; front part of roof done in 2015 and backside done in 2018. This unique home is being sold "as is" and does require some TLC.
