Immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of Hartslog Valley nestled in Central Pennsylvania with this picturesque 10.3-acre property, now offered at a recently reduced price. Just a stone's throw away from State College, Altoona, and the vibrant scene at Lake Raystown, this diamond in the rough ensures you are never away from engaging activities yet encased in rural charm.
Commanding your immediate attention is the cozy 3-bedroom house complemented by a barn, a shed, and a pondscape bursting with life—replete with geese, turtles, and fish. Venturing into the heart of the house reveals an ample living room and separate dining area, offering great possibilities for family gatherings and home customization. The kitchen, thoughtfully remodeled to retain its farm charm, invites you into its comforts. Additionally, the residence has been continually updated, including a coin dating back to 1861 found carefully sealed in the original logs for a unique touch of history.
Built for all the seasons, this house underwent a series of refreshes to enhance livability. This includes a new sunroom and deck extension in 2018, optimally designed to relax and enjoy the picturesque pond. The property also features a metal roof from 2010 and a heat pump equipped with air conditioning installed in 2017. The distinct furnace manages coal, wood, and oil, and you'll find a stockpile of coal in the basement, ready for use. Ensuring constant supply of warmth, a new water heater, pump, and tank were added to the list of improvements in 2011.
Evoking days of yore, the expansive barn keeps its originality with handmade logs, making it an ideal space for storage or hay and even offers areas for cattle or horses. It's not unusual to spot deer, turkeys, or, if you're lucky, an occasional bear on this splendid property, infusing the charm of the wild into your everyday life. Grab this rare opportunity to own a piece of the beautiful Pennsylvanian countryside at an incredibly reduced price!
