Architect Louis Vastardis, restored by local architect to retain as many original details as possible while updating the home. Located in lovely Hessian Camp. Beautiful stone entry of wood paneled walls and wrought iron stair railing. A large Living/ Dining Room runs the full length of the home and has a beautifully walnut paneled front wall. The nearly floor-to-ceiling windows in this raised room look out over the large wooded lot providing a real sense of seclusion. The kitchen has been renovated while retaining and restoring the original wood upper cabinets, new base cabinets have quartz countertops and tile backsplashes. A glass sliding door opens to a raised private deck. Three wood floored bedrooms and an original fully tiled bathroom are also on the main level. Lower level features a Family Room with nice stone and plaster fireplace and glass sliding doors to provide access to the yard and covered car park. Also another finished room that could easily be another bedroom, a workshop, and a bathroom with tiled shower. If you are a Modernist fan, this is a rare opportunity to own a true MCM home nicely restored in Berks County.
