About This Home
As of May 2019They simply don't build homes like this anymore! This stately 1917, one-of-a-kind historic stone residence is enchanting--a celebration of magnificent masterful architecture. Built by Breneman, PSU Engineering Chair, it has good bones & exceptional old-world carpentry. Notice 9' ceilings, maple floors, solid wood doors, a lovely grand staircase, built-ins, French doors, fireplace & more. Find a newer kitchen with granite countertops, eat-in space & a cozy window seat. Adore the arched cabinet in the generous dining room. The living room & adjoining covered porch are simply beautiful, warranting time to linger. Upstairs, the master suite is quite spacious with sizable full bath, dressing room and adjoining office/library. Two additional bedrooms, updated full bath & laundry room complete the 2nd floor. Don't miss the finished attic, offering even more space. Home warranty, replaced roof & windows, updated wiring, carport & detached garage access from the alley. Blocks from campus!
