Comments for 311 GREEN LANE , Reading, PA 19601
This stunning sprawling Cape Cod was built by renowned builder Ward Hayes as his own primary residence. Set on over a half acre of beautifully landscaped grounds in the prestigious Greenfields community of Bern Township, this 3,575 square foot (estimated) home overlooks the gardens and the Berkshire Country Club fairway beyond. Inside, you’ll find beautiful random-width hardwood floors, plaster walls, beamed ceilings, exquisite crown molding, and chair rail throughout. The home is very well maintained. The spacious living room features a gorgeous fireplace flanked by built-in bookshelves and steps down to a sun-drenched sitting area with flagstone floors, surrounded by windows offering beautiful views of the gardens and golf course. A large flagstone patio is perfect for entertaining. The main floor also includes a bright formal dining room with a raised-hearth fireplace, an updated kitchen with granite counters and gas cooking, a tiled back hallway leading to the backyard and a covered porch, laundry room, two pantries, a powder room, workshop access, and an oversized two-car garage. Upstairs offers a large multi-purpose suite over the garage that can serve as a fourth bedroom, office, or in-law space, plus two additional bedrooms, a full bath, attic storage, and a generous open hallway that could function as a sitting area. The primary suite located on the main level features a private sitting room/office, built-in bookshelves, walk-in closet, and a nicely updated full bath with walk-in shower, vanity, and soaking tub. A true showcase of quality and craftsmanship from one of Berks County’s most respected builders. A must-see home in an unbeatable location!
