Comments for 466 OLD SCHUYLKILL ROAD , Pottstown, PA 19465
This stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath farmhouse blends timeless character with thoughtful updates and versatile living space, all set on nearly an acre. At the heart of the home is an impressive chef’s kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a custom wraparound island with seating for six or more, perfect for gathering and entertaining. Just off the kitchen, a bright sunroom/den offers views of the neighboring pond and French doors leading to the patio and fully fenced backyard. The first floor also features a welcoming living room with fireplace, a spacious dining room, newly renovated full bath and laundry room. Beautiful original hardwood floors run throughout much of the home, complemented by custom built-in shelving and cabinetry and original deep window sills with newer replacement windows. Statement light fixtures in the kitchen and dining room create stylish focal points while blending seamlessly with the home’s historic character. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom includes an ensuite bath. Two additional bright and charming bedrooms and a third full bath complete the second floor, with ample closet space throughout. The third floor offers additional versatility with a fourth bedroom and another finished room that could serve as a fifth bedroom, home office, or studio. Skylights, generous windows with deep sills perfect for cozy window seats, and a distinctive geometric painted floor give the space unique character. Outside, the fully fenced yard includes a play area, large raised garden beds, mature fruit trees, and an arbor with established grape vines, creating an ideal setting for gardening and outdoor enjoyment. A large multi-level bank barn is a standout feature of the property, offering a screened aviary with indoor brooding room for poultry, ample workshop space, and an expansive upper level with exceptional ceiling height that presents outstanding potential for expanded indoor recreation space, studio or gym use, or other creative possibilities. Connected to the barn is an oversized two-car garage with 9-foot ceilings and a second-story loft that could be finished into office space or additional workspace. Together, the barn and garage provide exceptional space and versatility and may offer potential for a small business if permitted by the township (buyer to verify). Some of the most noteworthy improvements include a standing seam metal roof installed in 2018, new siding and windows on the garage in 2021, newly installed dishwasher and range in 2026, and fresh interior and exterior paint.
