One of the few East End homes William Bray did not design with the help
of Carl Nystrom, this massive Georgian Colonial Revival style house has
fluted columns and pilasters, Greek Key designs over the windows, a
classically decorated portico, and a gambrel roof. Edward Bradley was a
lumberman who first logged Michigan’s Northern Peninsula before coming
to Northeast Minnesota in the early 1880s to organized the logging firm
of Bradley and Handford.
This handsome Colonial Revival home sits on 3.48 acres of land in the
North Tulpehocken Area/Schuylkill Valley School District and is nearly
8,000 sq. ft. in size. It has been said to be the finest example of its
style in Berks County. Built in 1925, it features the latest in style
for the period. With a more open floor plan than earlier Colonial
designs, it is an easy home to move about in.
The main floor does not
lack the fine elements of the Colonial period. There is plenty of
woodwork to go around, such as chair rails, custom trim work, and crown
moldings. Hardwood floors abound throughout this home. Many people have
called attention to the beauty of the main stairway leading to the 2nd
floor. Large windows keep the home light and bright. Entering through
the front door brings you into a large gathering room.It extends the
full depth of the home, where there are French doors leading to one of
the several patios. To the right, you'll find an ample den/library with
fireplace. Beyond that, there is a large living room which is also the
full depth of the home. Again, there are French doors - these leading to a
sunroom with large glass sliding doors. This side of the home also
contains the main open staircase, a powder room and a small butler's
pantry. Now, going to the left of center, we find an elegant and
spacious dining room with 2 "shell top" display niches. You could seat
lots of family and friends here. Moving on, we find a sizable breakfast
room with lots of windows and French doors that lead to patios and the
sizable in-ground swimming pool, as well as, a
sizable butler's pantry with lots of storage. There is a kitchen and a
large laundry area, along with more closets, cabinets, and drawers. Here
you'll find the stairs to the basement and an extra set of stairs to
the 2nd and 3rd floors.
Now, onto the 2nd floor. At the top of the main
stairs, we turn right and go to the 1st master sized bedroom. This also
extends the depth of the house and has a door to access the flat roof.
Off of this room, is a full bathroom and a separate dressing room with
lots of cupboards, drawers and closets. Next, you'll find another nice
sized bedroom and a Jack and Jill bathroom leading to still another
bedroom of nice size. The last bedroom on the floor is master size and
is paneled in pickwick pine. It also includes a full bathroom. It's a
handsome room which most recently was used as an office. As we walk down
the hall, there is a cedar closet, a closet with drawers and cabinets, a
large linen closet and a cleaning closet with a fancy slop-sink. By
now you've noticed the handsome arch top doors at either end of the
hall.
Now, to the 3rd floor. Here are 3 more reasonably sized bedrooms, a
full bathroomand a wall long closet. There is also access to the
roof. The basement is full height and quite usable. It consists of 5
rooms. The most interesting is the "bomb shelter" or safe room. This is a
solid concrete space with a bank vault style door, dressing rooms,
bathroomand a generator. Two smaller rooms were used as craft rooms.
The basement also has its own door to the outside.
The exterior has its
own points of interest, beginning with the circular driveway. There is
ample parking and a 3-car garage. There is a good sized fenced in
swimming pool, a reflecting pool, and a lawn that extends to the
Berkshire Country Club Golf Course. The property is well shielded by
mature trees on both sides, so you'll have lots of privacy and play
space.
Now, as for that acreage. The 3.48 acre property consists of lot
10 and 12 of the original Greenfields subdivision. The house sits on lot
10 (1.58 aces). The vacant lot, lot 12 (1.87 aces), can be purchased
separately (approval pending).
The house and property need a good amount
of repair (plaster repair, MEP work, radiators, etc.) and some fresh
ideas. Schedule your showing today, and imagine the possibilities of
making this house a grand home once again.
