Property Description
The 1920 Whitner Mansion is secluded on 20 acres with spectacular views and is only 6 minutes from Wyomissing. Completely rehabbed in 2015-2016, this stone home boasts 8,500 SF of living space with gracious room sizes for all your entertaining. Every room was repaired and painted, many new light fixtures, ceiling fans, new furnace, many replacement windows and doors, new flooring, generator installed, enlarged and repaved driveway, and all new professional landscaping. The refinished hardwood floors in the foyer, dining room and living room are now stunning. The kitchen has all new appliances, a beautiful fireplace, and ceramic tile floor. The study with fireplace, wainscoting, large crown molding and warm carpet is a great place to relax and read. There's a total of four fireplaces, with one in living room and sunroom, too. And the two brightest rooms to enjoy on the first floor are the breakfast room and the sunroom. There are two stairways to the second level - the grand main stairway and the back stairway from the butler's pantry. The second floor consists of 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and a convenient laundry room. The main bedroom has an adjoining dressing room with double vanity and a private bath with hot tub and walk-in tile shower. There's one hall bath which is shared by three bedrooms, and one princess bedroom with private full bath. Then, on the third floor, there's a huge family room, or perhaps a game room, with a kitchenette and a full bath! On this level there's also a great cedar closet, and another room which could be used as exercise room or another office/study. Now, moving onto the outside, the terrace runs the full width across the rear of the house, approx. 80 ft, and provides the breath-taking views of the city in the valley and the mountains beyond with the Pagoda. In the summer you can relax and enjoy the very large in-ground pool. The property is abundant with wildlife, especially deer and turkeys. Seller is a PA Licensed Realtor
