Since 1772 this homestead has been a part of Hereford Township, with stone bank barn, three pastured areas, and spring-fed koi pond. A wonderful addition was architecturally designed to incorporate the summer kitchen into the structure, which brings an open-plan great room with solid cherry floors, wood-burning fireplace and plentiful light. The attached custom-cabinetry kitchen has vaulted ceiling, quartz counters and gas cooking. An appropriately placed eating area sits adjacent to the original farmhouse with original wood flooring that carries into the formal dining room with fireplace and living room with built-ins. The focal point of the summer kitchen is the characteristic walk-in fireplace, with storage above. Two stair cases lead to the second level, the primary suite with vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, Brazilian cherry flooring, and attached bath. Original hardwood floors flow through the additional three bedrooms with open beams; hall bath and convenient laundry area complete the upstairs. Stunning touches of exposed stone are appropriately placed throughout the home along with original fixtures on doors. Presently-blooming gardens surround the home and envelope the Trex deck with pergola, with views of the massive maple tree, barn built in the late 1800 into early 1900's, and pastures. The back pasture is accessible by a well maintained path and is shaded by mature landscape and has RAM fencing. Two of the three pastures are electrified by solar power. A shed by the koi pond used to be an art studio and has electric. The roof of the home and barn are more recently replaced with black metal. Four horse stalls with fans and wash area below, reinforced floors above for storage and hay, as well as a garage space with finished area above (450 sq ft), great for office or studio. Property is in Act 319 for tax preferential assessment. Beautiful and practically designed in structure and landscape, such a timeless property!

Proudly Presenting The Bender Farm Homestead, Circa 1860. Restored and Enlarged Circa 1994. Perfectly Nestled on over Two Acres in Fox Hill Estates. From the 1860s through the 1930s, the South Mountain resorts welcomed dwellers from New York City and Philadelphia to escape to the "healing" mineral waters of the area. The Bender Family was deeply rooted in the Wernersville and broader Berks County area and at one time this residence operated as a specialized bakery for the resorts. Today, after the major restoration and 1,056 SF addition constructed in the 1990s, the historic charm of original hardware, wide plank wood floors, and its country setting blends wonderfully with modern amenities and a floorplan that reveals its authenticity while broadly adapting to modern lifestyles. Exterior features include a brick paver patio with retaining walls, plus screened and open porches that offer extensive outdoor living areas, plus an oversized, detached two-car garage, smokehouse, root cellar, and garden shed. The gourmet kitchen with breakfast area and island is highlighted with a tin ceiling, wainscoting, deep windowsills, granite worktops, newer LP-fueled Kitchen Aid chef's 5-burner cooktop, custom cabinetry, adjacent pantry, laundry room, powder room, and mudroom. The formal dining room with wainscoting exceptionally demonstrates form and function, allowing guests to circulate to and from other rooms and the host or caterer the ability to efficiently serve and clear from the kitchen. Yesterday's parlour has become today's formal living room with its adjacent library hall-wall that leads into the large family room with wood-burning fireplace as its centerpiece and its overview of the screened lounge area. The screened porch evolves to a three-season room during cooler seasons when the plexiglass inserts are installed. Upstairs, Douglas Fir wide plank floors, transom windows, and high ceilings all pay homage to yesteryear. The primary bedroom with walk-in closet and ensuite bath features a double-bowl vanity, jetted tub and stall shower. Another large bedroom enjoys access to the second level mahogany-floored porch with exquisite Victorian gingerbread millwork. Two additional bedrooms and the hall bath, along with a small sitting area espousing the attic stairway complete the living areas on the upper level. Utility system updates include electric water heater (2021), well pump (2017), water treatment & neutralizer system (2021-22), oil-fired furnace and central air conditioning (2017). Exterior painting completed 2015. The residence boasts ten-foot high ceilings throughout the main and upper floors, wide plank wood floors, original hardware, including porcelain doorknobs, transom windows on upper floor bedroom doors, mudroom at entrance from screened porch, invisible pet fence, custom windows with removable screens. This conveyance includes two parcels: Lot 51 (house & garage, 1.03 acres per public records) PIN# 51-4355-02-66-8920, and Lot 32 (vacant, 1.02 acres per public records) PIN# 51-4355-02-66-9872.
