220 BAYBERRY LN Reading, PA 19608

A house like this doesn't hit the market too often a custom Hearthstone Homes classical French Provincial in sought-after Rosewood Hills. This Wilson School District neighborhood is like no other because it is so close to shopping and highways, but tucked away on acres of open space. And this property's Bayberry Lane location is exceptional as it backs to fields of green on a quiet cul-de-sac with only four other homes near the community's walking trails. The grounds have been beautifully maintained with extensive perennial gardens, a large paver patio, fire-pit, a stunning formal stone fountain (big enough to raise koi), a gorgeous stone retaining wall that creates a two-tier yard. Step inside and fall in love with the grand two-story foyer and millwork like you'd only see in a custom home. The copious moldings include finely-crafted columns, substantial door headers, beefy chair rail, and precise wainscoting. The two-story foyer is grand with an elegant staircase flanked by the formal dining room to the left and a large, two-desk work station home office to the right (the custom cabinetry stays!).
