Step into a piece of Pennsylvania and Berks County history with this extraordinary 28.07-acre country estate. Nestled in the heart of Ruscombmanor Township, this property offers an unparalleled combination of rich heritage, pure land, and panoramic, sweeping views of the historic Oley Valley. With portions of the property dating back well into the 1700's, this historic farmhouse is deeply rooted in local industrial and architectural heritage. The main living room carries a remarkable story, having served as the original carpenter shop for the historical Oley Furnace. Inside, classic features honor that historic craft, including exposed timber beams, original wood floors, deep-set windows, and character-rich detail that cannot be replicated today. Modern amenities bring it up to today's more comfortable living standards, including replacement windows, a composite roof, generator hookup, modern appliances, including a dishwasher, and exterior capping across almost all of the exterior buildings. The warm, inviting main floor flows into a traditional eat-in kitchen and dining space, anchored by classic plaster finishes and timeless stonework, along with a timeless wood fireplace accented by stone. The eat-in kitchen offers an abundance of countertop and cabinet space, along with modern appliances. Rounding out the first floor is a half bath. The second floor offers a spacious loft, and two bedroom areas, along with a conveniently located full bathroom. Completing this home is a fully unfinished basement, which houses the home's mechanicals, storage, workshop and laundry areas, along with a walkout. Perched in a elevated position, this property commands breathtaking, postcard-worthy vistas looking out over the rolling hills and countryside of the Oley Valley. Enjoy mornings on the porch taking in the scenery or evenings in the fields watching the sun set over open pastures and wooded boundary lines. For over six decades, this land has been lovingly tended using strict organic practices. No synthetic pesticides or chemical herbicides have touched this soil during this owner's 60+ years, making it a pristine, eco-friendly canvas for organic farming, homesteading, permaculture, or vineyard aspirations. The fertile pasture and farm grounds feature a natural spring water source and a private pond, along with numerous pastures, fields, and outbuildings, including a bank barn, all of which offer an ideal setup for livestock, crops, or an off-grid lifestyle. The bank barn offers 2 separate detached garage spaces, along with numerous horse stalls and other livestock and crop cultivating amenities that once kept this farm up and running. A third detached garage space can be found in the old butcher building. All of these out-buildings are equipped with electric to suit varying needs. Whether you are looking to steward a historic property, expand an organic agricultural operation, or simply establish a private retreat with valley views, 155 Oley Furnace Road is a historic gem that you won't want to pass on.
