Description

Wooded Raised Ranch Retreat with Thoughtful Updates Throughout

Tucked back off the road with a wooded surround, natural stone borders, refreshed exterior lighting, and an extended macadam apron at the bottom of the drive, this raised ranch feels private and grounded while still connected to everything Berks has to offer.

The home’s whole facade has been designed to offer a warm welcome through recent upgrades — from a newer front porch with steps and railing, newer roof and garage door, new construction windows, and all updated storm/screen doors. Inside, the bright main level is wrapped in luxury, vinyl plank flooring and refreshed paint to create a modern feel.

The living room offers a comfortable gathering space with a double front window and decorative archway, flowing naturally into the dining room for simple, relaxed hosting.

Large sliding doors from the dining room serve up meals with a tree-line view and ample natural light, while the front deck is the perfect spot to fully soak in the setting during morning coffee or evening drinks.

The kitchen keeps daily meal prep efficient and organized with newer appliances, including a built-in range, dishwasher, and brand-new dishwasher, a double sink, pantry storage, electric cooking, plus recessed lighting and its own rear access.

The Master bedroom enjoys a private bath with newer stall shower, vanity, lighting, and fixtures, as well as newer washer and dryer laundry area for added convenience. Down the hall, two main-level bedrooms with luxury vinyl flooring offer the flexibility as bedrooms, home office, or guest space, while sharing an updated full bath with granite-topped vanity and tub/shower.

The massive, unfinished lower level offers a ton of potential. An awesome wood stove adds cozy ambiance and efficient supplemental heating, while the newer HVAC systems provide year-round comfort and utility savings. Behind the scenes, you’ll appreciate major updates already in place — from the 200-amp electric service, water softener, block foundation, a new 50-gallon hot water heater, and more.

This property has been carefully shaped to fully celebrate its setting, with a back entry that takes you right out into the trees, updated bottom deck steps and walkway out front, striking natural boulders and stone borders framing the yard and driveway, and more than 35 newly planted pines that will grow into a thicker, living screen of privacy and year-round natural beauty.
