Every home has a history, some MUCH MORE SO than others! This Mid-Century Modern is a meticulously maintained one-owner home built in 1958 by Wallis and Patricia Lloyd, founders of Central Pennsylvania Festival Of The Arts! This premier arts festival required a ton of vision to start it years ago. Lucky is one who follows the footsteps of Mr. and Mrs. Wallis, who poured their hearts and souls into every inch of this property, both inside and out. Fall in love with the endless, unique features and consistent functional design. With over 2,600 square feet of finished space, everyone has room to work and play. This five-bedroom 2.5 bath home is anything but ordinary, as one with an eye for Mid-Century can appreciate. GOOD KARMA is present throughout, and nature is on display all around. There are so many options for entertaining both inside and out. The backyard offers a large detached screened-in gazebo and is the perfect place to relax or host a gathering. Inside in every room, one can expect windows and hardwood galore! The step saver kitchen is well-designed, high-quality, and boasts a pantry that is to die for. Two levels of bedrooms, each having a full bath, easily accommodate all familial arrangements or long-term guests. The tranquil setting is one display as one cozies up to the fireplace overlooking the wall of windows, and even a private baseball hoop and playhouse in the flat backyard. Embrace the lifestyle of being doorsteps away from Penn State and continue a tradition of living life to its fullest! You can almost still hear the music playing, as so many notes were taught under this roof!
