About This Home

Welcome to 531 Kennard Road where privacy, charm, and outdoor living abound! Drive up the private lane and into your peaceful oasis on nearly an acre surrounded by mature trees and beautiful landscaping. A home filled with character and charm, enter through the lovely stained glass front door and into expansive hardwood flooring and abundant sunlight through many windows. The spacious living room features two huge picture windows, a gas fireplace, and lovely built-ins, while the stylish remodeled, gourmet kitchen features maple cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel Bosch appliances including a gas cooktop, wall oven, and warming drawer, tiled flooring and backsplash, and an island. Boasting a vaulted ceiling, a heated tile floor, and sliding doors to a stamped concrete patio with a covered pergola, the dining room provides for wonderful entertaining and dining spaces. Enjoy the sun all year round in the gorgeous Florida room complete with a vaulted beamed ceiling with skylights, and sliders to several private decks. Retreat to your primary suite featuring hardwood floors, several closets, and an ensuite bath with a tiled floor, solid surface countertop, and large walk-in shower. Two additional ample-sized bedrooms, one with built-ins and one with access to the deck provide for great guest and office spaces, while the hall bathroom boasts a tiled floor and a stylish vessel sink. A sizeable mudroom/laundry room with a utility sink and storage cabinets and an oversized, heated two car garage with a storage attic and central vacuum system complete the main floor. Relax or entertain on the expansive and private rear composite deck by the outdoor wood burning fireplace or under the custom pavilion. The separate office provides for a great working space, an artist's studio, or a private hang-out space, while the detached oversized one car garage/workshop is great for a shop, hobbies, or storage. Other features include a hidden brick patio area, perennial gardens, a garden plot, and a chicken coop. You'll feel like you're in your own world, yet you're minutes from the Village of Boalsburg with it's quaint shops, restaurants, Boal City Brewery, and parks, close to Rothrock State Forest and Tussey Mountain Ski Area, and in close proximity to downtown State College, Penn State's campus, and Rt. 322/I-99 access. A rare combination of charm, character, privacy and outbuildings on almost an acre lot so close to the action. There is an adjacent 0.8 acre lot available for sale, as well!
