Distinctive Colonial Saltbox offering timeless character, impressive updates & a versatile floor plan in highly desirable Centre Hills Village. Framed by mature trees, rich exterior tones & crisp trim, the home carries a touch of New England-inspired character. Step through the front door into a delightful foyer where Brazilian walnut hardwood flooring, traditional millwork & a transom window overhead create a memorable first impression. From here, the home unfolds naturally into the spacious formal dining room, enhanced by crown molding & generous windows, a wonderful setting for holiday celebrations or evenings gathered around the table. Pocket doors connect the dining room to an inviting family room filled with personality. A dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick propane fireplace creates a striking focal point, while custom built-ins add architectural interest & useful display space. A wall of sliding glass doors draws the outdoors in, while connecting to the deck & yard beyond. The kitchen is equally suited to entertaining a crowd or everyday life. Locally crafted Shunk cabinetry is complemented by granite countertops, a classic subway tile backsplash & ceramic tile flooring. A contrasting center island adds workspace & seating while incorporating the oven & smooth cooktop, with stylish pendant lighting overhead. A convenient pot rack, abundant cabinetry & generous counter space round out this thoughtfully designed kitchen. Adding remarkable versatility to the main level is a separate guest area currently utilized by the sellers for Airbnb accommodations. With its own private exterior entrance, the 15' x 15' living room features wide-plank wood flooring & a Murphy bed, transitioning easily from daytime use to overnight accommodations. An adjoining office, separate bedroom, full bathroom & main-level laundry complete this portion of the home. A short-term rental permit is currently in place for a room & bathroom within the residence, adding appeal for those seeking dedicated guest quarters or adaptable living arrangements. A beautifully detailed staircase leads upstairs, where engineered hickory flooring continues throughout. The generously proportioned primary bedroom features charming architectural angles, crown molding & multiple windows. The remodeled full bathroom is a standout with a furniture-style dual vanity, vessel sinks, oversized tiled walk-in shower with frameless glass doors, multiple shower heads & striking blue tile accent. Built-in cabinetry provides impressive storage, while the customized walk-in closet incorporates shelving, drawers & hanging space. A second generously sized bedroom features a sloped ceiling & soft daylight. An additional full bathroom offers a furniture-style wood vanity with vessel sink, wall-mounted faucet & tiled tub/shower surround with built-in niche. Outside, a fenced side & rear yard is framed by trees, established landscaping & a spacious lawn. A composite deck with vinyl railing offers plenty of room for dining, relaxing & entertaining. Adding personality is the storybook-style garden shed, complete with a metal roof, barn-inspired doors, windows & flower boxes—practical storage with undeniable character. Additional improvements include Marvin double-pane replacement windows & a new roof installed in 2026. Distinctive redwood siding, with vinyl siding on the converted addition, complements an open-loop geothermal heat pump & central air conditioning for efficient year-round comfort. Minutes from downtown State College & Penn State University, this outstanding Centre Hills Village location keeps everyday conveniences & recreation close at hand. Enjoy easy access to Route 322 & I-99, nearby shopping, favorite eateries, Millbrook Marsh Nature Center, Slab Cabin Park & Centre Hills Country Club. Distinctive architecture, remarkable versatility & an exceptional State College location create a home that's anything but ordinary.
