Take a step back in time as you enter this beautiful 1786 farmhouse. With a deep vestibule, ornate woodwork, transoms, dramatically wide hallway entrance, candle chandeliers, and original walk-in fireplace you are sure to be immersed in the history of this home. The living room, dining room, and kitchen encompass most of the first floor, with the spacious kitchen being updated just enough to be comfortable with lots of cabinetry and counter space, tiled backsplash, and dishwasher, but still showcasing old-fashioned Dutch doors that lead into the hall and the formal dining room, which boasts its original corner cabinet complete with single pane glass. Through the door at the end of the first floor hallway, more modern conveniences await, including a full bathroom that has recently been updated with a new vanity, main floor laundry room, and a spacious sunroom. Upstairs the detailed staircase leads you to another open hallway with exposed ceilings and entrances to four bedrooms and a second full bathroom. Each bedroom seems more lovely than the last, giving you the idea that this home could be the ideal bed and breakfast. Upstairs yet again, you will find a sprawling attic that could easily provide more living space. Then downstairs, you will be surprised by the huge basement and its impressive stonework. But this unique property does not stop there. There is also a separate building, previously the original implement barn, now being used as a dentist office by the current owner, with 874 square feet, a waiting room, a powder room for customers, and plenty of parking. Of course, this office would work well for many different occupations, or could even be transformed into an in-law suite for multi-family living. But there is still more. You will also find a separate 220 square foot building that the seller uses as a break room, that could also be a great meeting area or studio, with two large glass block windows, oak hardwood floors, and a woodstove for heat. And then, yet another 784 square foot building makes the perfect workshop with two separate areas and another wood stove. There is also the log cabin springhouse, which was built on a natural stream in 1737, and was the original homestead for the property, as well as the original Bernville Schoolhouse. Inside the first floor has direct access to the spring, on the second floor the living area has been preserved, and a third floor provides a large storage area. All of this, and there is also a spacious 3-car garage on the lower level of the dental office. So, in short, this property has everything you could want. Call today for your private showing. You will not be disappointed.
