About This Home

As of March 2019

A renovator's dream! Classic brick two story in State College Borough offers lots of potential. Currently a side by side duplex, but now being sold at a reduced price as a single family home (duplex rental ability will be removed by a covenant). Plentiful wood floors, plaster walls, large trimwork, and abundant windows provide charm and character. There is a walk-up attic for storage and the basement is unfinished except for the laundry room. There are newer circuit breaker panels and there is a newer roof. A large deck overlooks the pleasant back yard. Several parking spaces are at the rear of the lot off Berry Alley. Close to Penn State and downtown State College in the charming Highlands neighborhood. This property can't be rented to students per a deed restriction and is a contributing property in the Holmes-Foster/Highlands Historic District. Here's your rare opportunity to own a classic era brick home close to campus, downtown, restaurants and entertainment!
