Description

Welcome to 100 Brookline Plaza – A Grand 1928 Stone Home Full of Charm and Possibility. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped corner lot, this 1928 all-stone traditional home offers timeless character, expansive living spaces, and incredible versatility. From the moment you arrive, the mature trees, flowering shrubs, and classic copper gutters speak to the home’s enduring craftsmanship and unique charm. Inside, you'll find a grand living room with a wood-burning fireplace, upgraded flooring, and custom built-in shelving—an inviting space for gatherings or quiet evenings. The formal dining room, with its built-in corner cabinets, opens to a lovely stone patio that invites outdoor entertaining. A screened-in porch through the living room connects to the patio and leads to a peaceful, private backyard surrounded by lush, established landscaping. The eat-in kitchen retains its functional, classic layout and features custom cabinetry with thoughtful touches like a pull-out pantry, a separate built-in pantry, and a wall oven—ready for you to make it your own. Every corner of this home holds original charm, from the deep window sills to the authentic hardware that has stood the test of time. Upstairs, a wide, stately staircase leads to 4 spacious bedrooms and a hall bath with retro tile—perfectly preserved or ready for your personal updates. The 4th bedroom is made of a primary suite spanning the two walk-through rooms and includes a fireplace, a tiled en-suite bath with a glass stall shower, and a private balcony overlooking the courtyard. Currently used as a two-room suite, this flexible space could easily accommodate a nursery, extra bedroom, private office, or cozy sitting area with a built-in window seat. There is an additional dedicated library or office area with a cedar closet that adds to the home's charm and functionality, with access to a large attic offering storage or future living space potential.
One of the home’s most distinctive features is a completely separate wing—previously used by a medical professional—that opens the door to countless possibilities. With its own private entrances, this space includes a front room ideal for a waiting area, living room, or consultation space, and a second room with gorgeous built-in cabinetry that could serve as an office or dining room. A full kitchen, butler-style pantry setup, and a full bathroom with a stall shower make this area fully independent and ripe for use as an in-law suite, rental unit, creative studio, or small business space. The home includes a two-car attached garage and a carport, and the full basement offers abundant storage and houses the home's updated systems, including a newer water heater and oil heat. This is a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind home where original beauty meets extraordinary potential. Great location, local to a Berk's County award winning private school, Alvernia and Albright Universities, and Tower Health Reading Hospital. Whether you envision restoration or renovation, 100 Brookline Plaza is ready to inspire. Let your imagination take the lead—reminiscent of old Wyomissing style charm, this grand residence is full of possibilities.
