615 W Bellevue Ave, Reading, PA 19605

Welcome to 615 W Bellevue Avenue, a one-of-a-kind historic treasure in the Muhlenberg School District, just moments from Laurel Run Park’s walking trails, picnic areas, athletic fields, and pickleball courts. Tucked among mature trees for ultimate privacy yet conveniently close to major highways, this iconic Daniel Zacharias Homestead seamlessly marries Berks County heritage with thoughtful modern upgrades. The charming farmhouse greets you with a brick-paver entry that flows into a country-style eat-in kitchen boasting granite counters, a spacious island, stainless steel appliances, an exposed stone accent wall with wood stove, and open-beam ceilings. Entertain effortlessly in the dining room with soaring 9-foot ceilings and deep window sills, or relax in the living room featuring a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick gas fireplace. A 1999 addition expands the main level by nearly 600 square feet, adding a generous family room, built-in cabinetry, and a full bath. Upstairs, discover three bedrooms—including a tranquil primary suite—a beautifully remodeled full bath with tile flooring and double vanity, a convenient half bath, and a versatile bonus room perfect as a nursery or dressing area. Among the many special features worth mentioning include a new roof, fresh paint, gleaming hardwood floors, two fireplaces, wood stoves, and efficient four-zone gas heat. Beyond the main residence, a converted smokehouse now serves as a cozy guest cottage with a large multi-purpose room and wood stove. An oversized two-story garage—drywalled, insulated, equipped with a mini-split system, upgraded electric, and abundant upper storage—completes the ensemble. A covered front porch with catwalk access to the guest house invites peaceful outdoor living.
