About This Home

As of April 2025

If you are looking for expansive space, a sense of privacy, and breathtaking mountain and valley views, all within 20 minutes of downtown State College, this is the property for you! Located on a hillside near the Colyer Lake area, this 6,000 square-foot home on 3.86 acres is both impressive and inviting, with a brick exterior, an oversized three-car garage, polished hardwood floors, wood trim and beams, and solid wood doors.
The main level offers everything you need: a spacious family room featuring a brick gas fireplace; a large kitchen with abundant storage and counter space; an adjacent dining area with access to the back patio; a separate dining room that can accommodate a table for 12; and another living area with wood beams and plenty of character. Continue to the addition, where you’ll find all the bonus space you could imagine! Two generously sized rooms, totaling over 1,700 square feet, currently used as a library and a home office, provide endless possibilities. Throughout the main level, the well-maintained hardwood floors unify the space, creating a seamless atmosphere of warmth and elegance.
There are two staircases leading up to the second level. The west wing of the second level includes a spacious owner's suite with two adjoining rooms that could be used as game rooms, craft areas, private studies, an art studio, or a fifth bedroom, all bathed in natural light from skylights. Continue down the long hallway with built-in bookshelves to the east wing, where you'll find three large, light-filled bedrooms and a full bathroom off the main hall.
On the lower level, there are 1,200 finished square feet along with additional unfinished space for storage and mechanical systems. The Thermopride oil furnace features a Reme Halo air purifier (installed in 2024) and a humidifier (installed in 2020). The water heater was installed in 2014, and the home includes a Culligan water filtration system. There is a walkout level door to the exterior off the finished space and three sets of stairs lead back up to the main level with one providing access to the garage. The garage not only has room for three vehicles but plenty of space for outdoor, sporting, gardening and lawn equipment; perfect for storing your kayaks or paddleboards for nearby Colyer lake!
This exceptional home truly has everything you could ever want, with all the space you need! The sellers are offering a 14-month home warranty for peace of mind, so you can move in and start making this magnificent home yours.
