About This Home

As of October 2025

545 Ridge Avenue, State College PA 16803

Welcome to this stunning, fully renovated Cape Cod located in one of the most desirable areas just blocks from the Penn State football stadium and close to campus. This beautiful 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been thoughtfully updated from top to bottom, offering a perfect blend of charm and modern convenience. The chef’s kitchen is a dream for entertaining and flows effortlessly into the spacious living areas, complete with a gorgeous gas fireplace for cozy gatherings. The first-floor primary suite features a luxurious private bath, and a convenient mudroom with brick flooring and first-floor laundry adds ease to daily living. Step outside to a covered porch and outdoor fireplace, ideal for relaxing evenings under the stars. Professionally landscaped and within walking distance to downtown, next to the golf course, this home offers not only comfort and style but also a fantastic location. Previously used as an Airbnb, it presents a strong opportunity for rental income or game-day hosting.
