About This Home

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A UNICORN? WE FOUND ONE IN MUHLENBERG TOWNSHIP, BERKS COUNTY! A truly one-of-a-kind property in Berks County offering the rare combination of 31.01 acres, privacy, wildlife, and everyday convenience—something that is incredibly hard to find. This 2,620-square-foot, six-year-old home features 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a first-floor primary suite with heated bathroom floors, designed for long-term comfort and flexibility. The home is solid, well-built, and thoughtfully maintained, offering peace of mind and practicality without unnecessary excess. Set well off the road with no neighbors in sight, the land functions as a natural wildlife sanctuary where deer, turkey, and countless bird species are part of daily life. The setting feels remote—like your very own mountainous retreat—yet it remains just five minutes from shopping and modern conveniences. That level of contrast is exceptionally rare. Unicorn rare. The home also includes a walk-out finished basement, recreation area, or additional living space, with a sliding door that leads directly out to your 31 acres of land. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a 16×20 black Trex deck with bump-out and white railing, along with a fully enclosed front porch with gated entry, creating multiple spaces to enjoy the property in every season. Inside, the kitchen is equipped with upgraded appliances and a double oven, while the home features Adura plank flooring and carpet throughout. Mechanical systems include private well water, a well-maintained septic system, and a 1,000-gallon propane tank supplying a full-house generator, ensuring comfort and reliability year-round. The acreage offers extensive road frontage and subdivision potential, providing future optionality for development, investment, or continued private enjoyment. The entire property is enrolled in Pennsylvania’s Clean & Green program, offering favorable tax treatment while helping preserve long-term value. This is a legacy property—quiet, private, intentional, and irreplaceable. Nestled in Berks County, Pennsylvania, this extraordinary property offers both tranquility and convenience, situated within comfortable reach of New York City, Philadelphia, Harrisburg, Reading, and Allentown. Please call to schedule a private showing. Please do not access the property or drive back the private lane without a scheduled showing and accompanied by an agent.
