Tucked away on 5 private acres in Port Matilda, this unique property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful country living with convenient access to State College-located less than 10 miles from North Atherton Street shopping, dining, and everyday amenities. Backing directly to State Game Lands 176, the setting is both private and expansive, with thousands of acres of protected land just beyond your property line. The home features a thoughtfully arranged living space on the second level, where natural finishes and abundant light create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The kitchen and living areas are designed for both comfort and function, while the lower level offers flexible space including a second bedroom, garage, storage, and workshop potential, enhanced by radiant floor heating. Outdoors, the land has been intentionally cultivated with sustainability and future use in mind, offering established garden space, mature plantings, and room to expand. With infrastructure already in place to support a larger residence, this property also presents a compelling opportunity for those seeking a private retreat today with the ability to grow or build for the future-all in a highly desirable Centre County location.
