Grand Wyomissing Victorian with Outdoor Entertaining Oasis

Set on a corner lot, in the heart of Wyomissing, just steps from the school, park system, playgrounds, and Penn Avenue shops, this three-story Victorian blends classic architecture and finished indoor–outdoor living.

From the street, the home makes a stately first impression with brick and shake siding, copper flashing, detailed trim, and three covered porches with slate steps — including a gracious front porch with Mahogany flooring, pillars, iron handrails, and wood ceiling.

Enter immediately into the lovely sunroom, where replacement windows fill the space with light and a beamed ceiling and hardwood floors add rich character. Then through the gorgeous front door framed by intricate windows, the main foyer is elevated by crown molding, tall windows with wood trim, and rich woodwork on the staircase.

Hardwood naturally flows into the living room, which is anchored by a corner brick gas fireplace with marble base, crown molding, and decorative glass transoms above the windows to the sunroom, and sliding wood doors to the dining area.

A combined dining room and kitchen forms the heart of the main level, designed for serious cooking and modern hosting. A massive eat-in island with Versiglia quartz with matching built-in serving bar, floor-to-ceiling subway tile, built-in shelves, and a large bay window in the dining area create a restaurant-inspired setting for everyday meals and entertaining.

Additional upgrades include a commercial 6-burner gas stove with grill and double oven, hammered brass hood with upgraded ventilation, brass pot filler, butcher block countertops, farm sink and built-in refrigerator and dishwasher with matching panels.

A tucked-away coffee bar/pantry with quartz top streamlines daily routines, and a separate mudroom with matching cabinetry and subway tile opens into a main floor powder room with wood floors and pedestal sink.

On the second floor, the primary bedroom offers hardwood floors, crown molding, a statement-making bay window, and a huge walk-in closet with both windows and a wall of built-ins, while the private bath features a jetted tub, tiled shower with glass surround, vanity with granite top, tile floor, built-in shelving, wainscoting, and crown molding.

Two additional bedrooms on this level each offer hardwood floors, crown molding, and their own en-suite baths — one with tiled tub/shower, the other with a claw-foot tub.

A walk-up third floor lives like its own private suite with hardwood floors, angled ceilings, storage closets, a turret office/sitting room, and an en-suite bath with tile floor, stall shower with glass surround, oversized vanity, and wainscoting.

The lower level adds flexible space for recreation, fitness, or storage, along with a laundry area with a wash bin sink to keep daily life running smoothly.

Out back, the larger corner lot opens into an expansive paver patio and walkways that create a true outdoor oasis, with a stone kitchen featuring a granite-topped counter and built-in grill, a wood pergola and stone hearth for evening gatherings, layered landscaping framed by privacy fencing, and a detached 2‑car garage with alley access and storage above.
