Close your eyes and imagine hearing the sounds of the calming creek gently flowing by. This home has lots of character & is customized throughout: from impressive 2 stone floor-to-ceiling mountain stone fireplaces to private bathrooms for both bedrooms on the upper level. Spring Creek is a class A trout stream and only a 1/2 mile from Fisherman's Paradise and 9 miles to Penn State University. Nothing can compare to falling asleep listening to the gentle flow of the Creek, especially on a warm summer's night with the window open & the light of the moon shining in. This home was custom made by a true artist whose handy work is expressed in the log barn beams, custom kitchen cabinets, hidden compartments, spacious living room, expansive mountain stone fireplace and built-in storage cabinets. Two bedrooms each have access to a full bath, plus a bonus of a screened-in porch perfect to sit & listen to the creek while relaxing in the evening or with your morning coffee. The integral one car garage is an added bonus and is heated. The best of all worlds as you are enjoying the sights & sounds of the Creek and the view it has to offer. Only a short walking distance to open land owned by the Pa Game commission you can enjoy the walking path access to wooded hiking trails & endless fishing opportunities. Don't wait long this home is sure to sell fast! Seller is related to Listing Agent & PA License REALTOR.
