Proudly Presenting The Bender Farm Homestead, Circa 1860. Restored and Enlarged Circa 1994. Perfectly Nestled on over Two Acres in Fox Hill Estates. From the 1860s through the 1930s, the South Mountain resorts welcomed dwellers from New York City and Philadelphia to escape to the "healing" mineral waters of the area. The Bender Family was deeply rooted in the Wernersville and broader Berks County area and at one time this residence operated as a specialized bakery for the resorts. Today, after the major restoration and 1,056 SF addition constructed in the 1990s, the historic charm of original hardware, wide plank wood floors, and its country setting blends wonderfully with modern amenities and a floorplan that reveals its authenticity while broadly adapting to modern lifestyles.

Yesterday's parlour has become today's formal living room with its adjacent library hall-wall that leads into the large family room with wood-burning fireplace as its centerpiece and its overview of the screened lounge area. The screened porch evolves to a three-season room during cooler seasons when the plexiglass inserts are installed. Upstairs, Douglas Fir wide plank floors, transom windows, and high ceilings all pay homage to yesteryear. The primary bedroom with walk-in closet and ensuite bath features a double-bowl vanity, jetted tub and stall shower.
