Welcome to 1041 Reading Avenue — a landmark property where history, artistry, and opportunity meet. Nestled in the scenic village of Greshville just outside Boyertown, this extraordinary commercial property blends an 18th-century Pennsylvania German stone barn with a charming farmhouse residence. Known locally as Greshville Antiques and Fine Art, this long-established business has been a creative cornerstone in the community for over 45 years. Now, for the first time in decades, it’s ready to inspire its next chapter — whether as a distinctive home, a live-and-work retreat, or a new business venture. Estimated to have been built circa 1742, the original farmhouse offers timeless charm with thoughtful updates. A welcoming side porch serves as the main entrance with an inviting outdoor space perfect for relaxing or greeting guests.The large patio off the porch is the perfect place to overlook the lush grounds and unwind after a long day. Inside, the home features gracious living and dining rooms and a cozy family room currently used as an office, showcasing a beautiful walk-in fireplace with a functioning Hampton Cast Iron Wood Stove finished in porcelain. The bright, eat-in kitchen opens to a convenient laundry area and full bath to complete the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite features an adjoining sitting room — ideal as a nursery, home office, or even a potential walk-in closet. A second bedroom and a large hall bath with dual walk-in closets complete the upper level. Attached to the main house, the guest house (added in 1955) provides a private entrance, comfortable living area, galley kitchen, full bathroom, and spacious bedroom — perfect for guests, extended family, or potential rental income. At the heart of the property stands the historic stone barn, a breathtaking example of 18th-century Pennsylvania German architecture. Once part of a 600-acre farm, the barn has been restored to highlight its original hand-hewn beams, hay ladders, thick-plank threshing floors, and arched stall doors. Inside are multiple gallery and work areas, a 38x27 woodshop with stalls, a large side storage room, and an expansive loft above. The barn is temperature controlled with both heating and air conditioning, making it ideal for year-round creative, commercial, or event use.Both the home and barn utilize a Portage & Main outdoor wood-burning boiler/furnace — a secondary heat source option that efficiently warms one or both buildings through underground piped water. Set on 4.9 acres, the property also features an above-ground pool, ample parking, and open green space framed by mature trees. Zoned Village Commercial, this one-of-a-kind property offers boundless potential — from an artist’s retreat or bed-and-breakfast to a home-based business or private residence. 1041 Reading Avenue is more than a property — it’s a preserved piece of Pennsylvania’s heritage, with nearly three centuries of history and 45 years of creative legacy ready to welcome its next visionary owner.
