Property Description
Here is a great opportunity to own a truly unique property in Douglas Township, Berks County. Circa 1750's Old Mill, converted, Colonial with barn is very deceptive in its size and design. Huge eat-in kitchen has endless possibilities, highlighted by the floor to ceiling stone wall, which was part of the exterior wall of the Mill. The Cathedral ceilings with exposed beams & tile floors make this an entertainer's delight. The Family Room, just off the kitchen has a wood burning stone fireplace with woodstove insert, and hardwood flooring. Other 1st floor rooms include a Dining Room & possible Office/Bedroom. The 2nd floor offers a main bedroom with wood stove and full bath & 2 additional bedrooms, each very cozy, plus a hall bath. Spiral stairs lead to attic storage or potential future finished space. Well maintain exterior?stucco over stone, newer roof, newer deck overlooking the quiet Manatawny stream that borders the length of the 5.01 acre property (Deed reflects 7.7 acres). The huge post & beam barn, with newer roof, has been converted with multiple purposes in mind. Owner previously operated her art studio in part, used upper floor for rough storage, and added an efficiency apartment that includes a kitchen, living room, bedroom, & bathroom, which is currently is occupied by a Tenant and lease will be month to month. Other outbuilding included are the original ice house, which is today is nice storage shed with possible future use. Property is bordered by the Manatawny Stream on one side and the "Colebrookdale Spur", a historic short railroad line between Boyertown and Pottstown, operated by Eastern Berks Gateway Railroad.
