Property Description
Adorable cottage with breathtaking outdoor oasis just steps from Bellefonte and all its wonder! Renovations to this 1 BR/den or 2 BR/1 bath home include paneling removed and drywall and insulation added, new kitchen, new bath, new windows, and refinished original hardwood Fir floors. True treasure of this oversized, larger-than-most lot is the idyllic outdoor space that mirrors the charm of the home's interior. Sun-kissed yellow exterior, window boxes with blooming flowers and covered front entrance is inviting. Natural light fills the rooms and circular floor plan makes home cozy. New front door leads into open space and hardwoods throughout. To right is window with beautiful millwork and instead of hall closet is quaint window seat with baskets and cubbies for storage underneath and wooden pegs on wall for hanging jackets. Nice-sized room for bookcase and comfortable chairs. Adjacent room has 2 windows with mirror strip in between. Angled corners offer great spot for couch and comfy chair and under 3rd window is perfect place for table and chairs. New kitchen makes the most of its space and has texture everywhere! Angled ceramic tile countertops are striking and include breakfast bar with 2 stools. Travertine stone backsplash compliment maple cabinets while new SS appliances add modern touch. 2nd BR or den has ceiling fan, sizable closet and access to back yard. New bath is impressive with Travertine tile floor, Travertine tile counter with large oval basin, full tub/shower with white tile, and unique lighting. MBR is roomy with added closet, neutral paint and window. Both rooms have entrances to the bath. Touting both huge back and side yards, enjoy this outdoor space from sun up to sun down. New Trex steps lead to re-designed fenced-in backyard. Pockets of space each have their purpose and splendor. Pebbled circular path leads to thriving vegetable garden. Spectacular River Birch provides shade for wonderful patio. Currently a wrought iron table and chairs are before a stone trimmed fountain while Adirondack chairs sit in shady spot edged with ? circle of bricks. Towards back of yard is a fire pit and spot for picnic table. Vibrant flowering shrubs bloom at different times throughout the season. Serene sanctuary! Adjacent is 10-by-12 screened-in porch, a niche to appreciate nature. Detached 1-car garage offers protection for vehicle plus cabinets and gardening station. Large side yard features flowers, trees and shrubs also. Abundance of appeal!
