www.15eaglespeak.com 34 acre farm and home for sale located in Berks county near the intersection of Berks, Lebanon, and Lancaster counties. This unique and beautiful property is a very rare find in this area - combining spacious land, a large, well-built home, a private mountain setting, but accessible from multiple urban centers. Set back from the closest road via a private driveway, the home is just under two miles from route 422 and is in the Conrad Weiser School District - just minutes from the school facilities. Situated on top of South Mountain and a few miles down the road from Eagle's Peak Campground, there is abundant wildlife roaming through the field and woods on the property. Deer are spotted daily and wild turkey and hawks are often seen. A babbling brook can be heard from the house as it flows through the field watering the pastures. A pond, complete with gradually sloping, sanded wading area completes this idyllic setting. Boxed high tensile fencing surrounds the pastures. The fields have been pesticide free since 2007 and are perfect for keeping livestock and horses and have been mowed for hay recently. Fruit trees - peach, cherry, bing cherry, apple, and plum - as well as blackberry, blueberry, raspberry, and wineberry bushes are planted throughout the property as well. The two story home was custom built in 2001 and is exceptionally sturdy - featuring 6" exterior walls. The large, eat in kitchen was completely redone in 2013 with custom raised panel, oak cabinets, granite counter tops, tile back splash, and under cabinet lighting. It opens onto an expansive family room giving the home a very open and welcoming nature. There is a full basement with partial daylight entrance on the north side. There is a full bath on both the first and second floors. A laundry room is found on the first floor right next to a side door - through which you can walk right out to a nice big wash line. The home has four bedrooms on the second floor with a first floor office that could also be a living room or even another bedroom (a walk in closet is situated just outside this room). The home is extremely efficient when it comes to heat: an outdoor wood furnace - central boiler is new in 2011 - means that there is no need to spend money on refilling the oil furnace's tank. All water used in the house is heated by the wood burning furnace. Radiant heated first and second floors provide comfort throughout the year. There is central air conditioning as well as a whole house fan for those times when air movement is all that is needed. The home has three heating zones and two cooling zones for maximum environmental control. The windows are rated Low E. Adjacent to the house is an insulated shop with plenty of room for projects and storage. It is heated and air conditioned and plumbed for electrical as well as pneumatic power throughout. There are several other utility buildings and sheds throughout the property and all are in good shape and usable. This property will be auctioned off at a public sale on Thursday, August 28th, 2014 at 5:00pm by Kline, Kreider, & Good.
