This solid brick Cape Cod style home has been loved and cared for by the same owner for over 70 years and is now being offered for sale for the very first time!! It is hard to find available homes of this quality which would cost 100k's more to build today. It's solid brick with plaster walls, updated electric, replacement windows, a new roof (replaced in 2019), and a private well and septic. The other piece that makes this property so incredible is the land. It is located in the Oley School District and has over an acre lot that is slightly sloped, offering a gorgeous view of trees, mountains, and distant towns. As you enter the home from the welcoming breezeway you'll be delighted by the spacious, eat-in kitchen with solid wood cabinets, built-in appliances including dishwasher and microwave, and plenty of room for family and friends to gather for meals and fun together. Plumbing was put in a closet off of the kitchen for a first floor laundry but the washing machine can be put back in the basement where there is still plumbing hookup. The large living room has plush carpet that was just professionally cleaned. Underneath the carpet is hardwood floors. Enjoy the natural sunlight and views from the bay window that looks out and beyond the open lawn. Down the hallway from the kitchen are 2 bright and roomy bedrooms with hardwood floors and closets. The bathroom with a walk-in shower on the first-floor level can provide a true one-floor living space if needed. For those who are looking for more space, upstairs you will find 2 more spacious bedrooms and a half bath. The basement is unfinished. The 1-car garage is oversized and is waiting for your tool bench and yard equipment. Behind the garage, there is a 2-room, vinyl-sided outbuilding with electricity and older plumbing (once had a bathroom). With some work this space could serve various purposes including a workshop, storage, home office, she-shed, man cave, or home gym; use your imagination. A new roof was put on this building several years ago. If you want a beautiful property with a country feel but easily accessible to local towns, don't hesitate to look at this incredible property. It won't last in today's market.
