If you are a fan of high end mid century architecture this home is more than worth a look. This 1950's eclectic brick-clad tudor styled home is located in the heart of Shillington which is located in Berks County, pa. The home was likely built by someone who had influence. This is evident when you look at the quarter-cut hardwood floors that run throughout the whole home. The owners did change the kitchen and bath floors to tile which richly complements the wood floors. The walls are made of plaster and the architecture features rounded doorways which was customary for the period. The present owner also added a large two-story family room and elevated kitchen nook to the home. They did a great job of blending the old world with the new by keeping the slate shingle roof look along with the brick exterior. The kitchen and baths have also been upgraded along with mechanical features and windows. There is a 4th bedroom on the second level and a media room in the finished walk-up attic. The home could easily be used as a four bedroom but may better be serve someone who only needs three with extra room space. The one-car garage and storage area are in the walk-out basement along with a laundry and workshop area. The home does not have much of a back yard so lawn maintenance is limited. The new family room addition took up most of the space but left a nice driveway to shoot baskets. the Shillington area is known for its cozy neighborhood feeling and close proximity to the senior, junior and elementary schools in the Governor Mifflin school district. Please look at the great home photos and decide for yourself. Should this be your home? Enjoy!
