Property Description
Welcome to your own slice of rural Central Pennsylvania paradise, nestled high on Purdue Mountain in the sought-after Bellefonte Area School District. This charming ranch-style home offers an extraordinary blend of privacy and flexible living across a magnificent 1.75-acre wooded lot.
As you step inside, you'll immediately appreciate the thoughtful flow of the main level. The inviting open floor plan seamlessly connects the family room and the eat-in kitchen, creating an ideal setting for gatherings. But the truly unique feature of this home is the incredible convenience of **two separate kitchens **. The lower-level kitchen is functionally equipped with an electric oven/range & Cherry Cupboards, ceramic tile flooring and hardwoods and the Main level kitchen has a new gas stove and laminate flooring, microwave, and an extra refrigerator, making meal preparation easy. and a total of 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms—an exceptional layout for in-law quarters, guests, or multi-generational living.
Anchoring the cozy atmosphere are two fireplaces, perfect for tranquil evenings on the mountain. The living space extends naturally to the outdoors through multiple decks, which are central to the home's charm. Retire to the primary bedroom and step onto your own secluded **upper deck**, where the current sellers loved unwinding to quietly observe the wildlife at dusk. Enjoy the other 2 decks for entertaining, grilling, or just hanging outside. Start your mornings savoring a cup of coffee while watching the sun rise.
The lower level is home to a fully finished daylight basement with a walkout entrance, providing versatile additional living space for guests, a game room or relaxation.
Beyond the home, the 1.75 acres is a certified natural wonder. Stroll through your private sanctuary and discover a magnificent tulip tree, abundant blooming flowers, and numerous fruit-bearing plants, complemented by a spacious garden area ready for planting fresh vegetables.
Practical updates include newer metal roofs and siding on the house and garage, which add modern value and curb appeal.
