King of Hillcrest! This magnificent, stately brick Georgian estate resting on a sprawling 0.57 acre corner lot in West College Heights commands attention. Refined and meticulously maintained, be captivated by the blend of classic charm and modern amenities. Stroll up the brick sidewalk and through the classic rams head front door with dual sidelights and into a welcoming foyer with handsome fluted trim work. Once inside you'll be greeted by expansive hardwood flooring, plaster walls and ceilings, embellished trim work, and abundant natural light through the plentiful Pella windows. The spacious living room features a wood burning fireplace and access to the large sunken office complete with cherry desks and built-ins. The classic dining room is highlighted by crown molding and chair rail, and features a hidden closet under the stairs and a wall of glass with a sliding door to the enclosed, heated brick porch. There's room for everyone in the sprawling kitchen which boasts plentiful white cabinetry and granite countertops, an abundance of windows in the nook area, a back staircase to the second floor, and barn beam accents. An academic's delight, the large den is highlighted by plentiful bookshelves and built-ins, a wood burning fireplace, and a half bath. A huge mudroom with a plethora of closets and pantry space, a main floor laundry room with exterior access, and a full bath with a soaking tub or pet wash complete the main floor. Ascend to the second floor and find a spacious primary suite complete with a wood burning fireplace, a walk-in closet with an ante sink area, access to the upstairs exterior balcony area, and a remodeled bath with a tiled walk-in shower. Four additional bedrooms and two additional full baths, plus several linen closets, round out the second floor. Upstairs in the walk-up third floor attic you'll find ample storage and a cedar closet, meanwhile the lower level rec room is great for games or media, and there is more storage in several basement closets and in the mechanical room. Relax on the rear brick patio, under the covered back porch, or by the heated inground pool complete with a waterfall feature and a pool house. The private and gorgeous back yard oasis boasts an abundance of flowers, landscaping, mature trees, and even a fenced garden area. A rarity in College Heights, you'll appreciate a coveted oversized two car garage with an attached workshop and an additional carport space. You're just a few blocks to Penn State's golf courses, the bike path, and campus, plus a short distance to Radio Park Elementary and the shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues of downtown State College.
