This captivating prairie style dwelling overlooks the 14th hole of Penn State's Golf Course on Park Avenue in sought-after College Heights. This historic 1949 home, designed by architect Douglas Lockwood (an apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright in the Taliesin Fellowship), offers an unmatched combination of function and exquisite design. Wright not only influenced the design but also approved the plans, according to a previous owner, ensuring that the home embodied his signature principles of organic modern architecture. The living room boasts warm hardwood floors, sleek shelving, and expansive glass windows that wrap around the space offering breathtaking views of the outdoors. This perfect mix of modern design and natural beauty creates a cozy, contemporary haven. The kitchen features stainless-steel appliances and opens to a spacious family room, which has direct access to two expansive decks—perfect for entertaining and hosting guests. Just next to this inviting space, a formal dining room offers a refined setting that flows effortlessly into the heart of the home. The first-floor primary en suite offers the ease and comfort of single-level living, while two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the thoughtfully designed main level. The finished lower-level walk-out offers a private retreat complete with an additional en suite bedroom, a versatile bonus room ideal for a home office or gym, and laundry area. Additional: One-car garage, shed. Easy proximity to campus, downtown venues, the football stadium, golf course and the enchanting Arboretum.
