Property Description
Own a piece of Topton's treasured history! This historic 1800's church has been renovated into a large family residence which is accompanied by an attached apartment. Originally built in the late 1800's and known as the St Peters Union Church, this home has a tasteful mix of original features yet has been updated to suit today's more modern lifestyle. The first floor consists of a warm and inviting front living room with french doors that lead you through to an office area and a large family room area open to the kitchen. This area showcases some of the character and charm of the original church. There is a breakfast nook with pew bench seating and the focal point of the altar, with a 2-story wall of book shelving and a balcony from the 2nd floor choir loft. A first-floor bath / laundry room is situated in a separate room conveniently located just off of the kitchen and there is a rear exit door to access a private screen enclosed back porch. This home also has both front and back stairways leading to the second floor; where there are 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and an exceptional amount of storage space. Upstairs you will continue to see characteristics from this structure's origin with a hymnal book closet in the master bedroom, the original church ceilings and an abundance of natural lighting from the two-story double hung windows. The apartment is adjoining but is a separate residence; with separate utilities and systems. It is currently occupied by a long term tenant, adding additional value to this property by covering your ownership costs. The apartment consists of a living room, eat-in kitchen with laundry, and 2 bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. Come tour this very well maintained and unique small-town property conveniently located for commutes to the Lehigh Valley or Berks (minutes from Kutztown University). Within walking distance of schools, parks, and local eateries.
