You will definitely want to see this incredibly well built, solid brick Georgian Revival located in the Centre Park Historic District. Designed by well-known local architect Alexander Forbes Smith, who designed the Reading Museum, Reading City Hall, Pomeroys Department Store, Berkshire Country Club, and many distinguished buildings in Berks county. This property is unique as he built very few residential properties, but shows the same attention to design and detail as in his larger projects. The property has been in the same family for over 90 years and maintains its original character from when first built. Enter the tiled foyer, followed by a wide central hallway. The large and spacious living room features a fireplace, built-in bookcases, and a picture window. Across the hall, you will find a panel study/office towards the front. The dining room features a large picture window and French doors. The butlers pantry is located between the dining room and the nice size kitchen and features plenty of cabinet space. There is also a half bath under the staircase. Upstairs features a heated sunporch off the landing, a bedroom with half bath at the top of the back staircase and a linen room. The main bedroom located on the second level featuring walk-in closet, and full tiled bath with separate bath and shower stall. There are two additional bedrooms, along with a full bath in the main hall. The third floor features walk-in cedar closet, two additional rooms and a full bath off the main hall. The property also features a backyard that extends to 3rd Street where the oversized brick two car garage is located featuring a work area, separate room and half bath plus upstairs loft with pull down stairs.
