636 Main Street, Schwenksville.

636 Main Street in Schwenksville is full of surprises. Its curbside view is of a stately Victorian-style home, solidly built but with a definite retro vibe.

Once inside, however, its modern look and feel are immediately apparent.

The living room retains some of the classic feel of a vintage home. Yet the hardwood floors make the setting very inviting, and the ceiling fan is a nice amenity.

The kitchen, however, is where the real time-travel is apparent. There are no coal-stoked stoves, no cleaver-hacked butcher blocks, and no drippy ice boxes here. The food-prep area is tidy and efficient, and the nearby table, with deck views, is inviting.

The master bedroom, too, is very current-day in its aesthetic.

There’s guest house out back that would make a lovely in-law suite or a revenue-producing B&B-style guest house.

The rear of the home offers additional treasures: an airy deck and views of the picturesque Perkiomen Creek and Trail.

636 Main Street in Schwenksville has an asking price of $535,000.
