What's special

Welcome to a home in a very kid-friendly neighborhood, just a short walk to Sheridan Park, elementary/middle school, and minutes from Altoona amenities with easy interstate access. This property is more than just a house, it's a warm inviting home. It offers a backyard oasis perfect for relaxing or entertaining, chickens that produce fresh eggs can also come with the home if the new owner wishes, and well maintained wood burning fireplace. Additional highlights include a spacious 2-car heated garage, two backyard sheds for extra storage, and a nonconforming extra room that could be used as another bedroom, office space, playroom, or whatever your heart desires.
