49 Ridge Dr

Back in the day there was one custom home builder in Berks County that stood above the rest. His name was Stu Zager and if you were fortunate enough to have the resources to call on him to build your home it was a good thing. 49 Ridge Drive, Fleetwood, PA is one of the homes Mr. Zager built for the present owners. They are now ready to pass this gem onto the next fortunate owner. The home is located in the custom home community of Forest Ridge in Rockland Township, Berks County. It is well positioned on a one acre partly wooded lot that backs up to a fully wooded 18 acre parcel of ground. The large wrap-around deck gets the afternoon sun and features a sun setter retractable awning. The home is fronted with a hand made brick, some fashioned into rich looking quoin corners. The hip roof completes the traditional European style. Upon entry you are greeted by 9' high ceilings that elevate into a cathedral ceiling covering the great room and continue into the octagonal ceiling in the breakfast nook before settling back to 9' in the kitchen. The wood and tile flooring, trim accents and light fixtures are all very visible in this home of light. There are large windows throughout and almost 60 recessed lights throughout. There are built-in bookshelves, desks, cabinets and an entertainment center that were custom installed. the kitchen has a walk-in pantry, eating bar and Corian counter tops while the great room has a 2-story high brick fireplace and skylights. There are doors to the rear deck conveniently placed in the breakfast nook and den. There is also sweet music available from the central sound system. Recently the owners remodeled the master bath. Rather then explain what they did I will let the great home photos do the talking. If all this is not enough, the home is heated and cooled by a geothermal system. The unit is highly efficient and will keep the utility bills lower than a normal home system. The 3-car garage has stairs to the basement for convenience and is completely finished wall to wall. Finally, there is a laundry / mud room just off the garage area. This is truly a special home that has been well taken care of by the present owners. I am sure they had the next owner in mind. We hope it is you and thank you for visiting us online. Come see the home in person. t will not disappoint.
