Property Description
This historic 1800s farmhouse in desirable Exeter Schools was once owned by Gertrude Sternbergh, a Reading concert pianist and patron of music and the arts. Ms.Sternbergh is remembered as the Grande Dame of Stirling Mansion at Centre Ave. and Robeson St. in Reading, where she lived from her birth in 1899 until her death in 1997. Brick fireplace, built-ins, and wood floors in living room, dining room with view of pond, and Ms. Sternbergh's original pink-tiled full bath provide rustic touches. Modern main floor addition (2005) features oak kitchen, large family/great room, and endless pool/exercise room with French doors and wonderful view of property. Main spiral stairs and second staircase lead to upper floor bedrooms, including master bedroom/full bath and private deck overlooking the woods. Two additional bedrooms plus hall full bath, laundry room, comfortably-sized fourth bedroom or office/study, and large flexible space for fifth bedroom or play area. Enormous walk-out basement is well-lit from modernized windows and offers additional storage or space to finish as desired. Bucolic fishing pond, wooded privacy, smokehouse, 2-car detached garage, and picturesque barn complete this sprawling 3 acre property. Barn boasts 2 floors, original animal stalls, high beams, electrical hookups and water availability, and many rustic elements ? perfect to finish for entertaining, parking, or home business use. Current total parking for 8 cars in barn, detached garage, carport, and lengthy private driveway offers plenty of room for commercial vehicles.
