Welcome to Hummingbird Hideaway, a beautiful 163-acre Centre County woodland retreat with long-range views across multiple mountain ranges. Set where you can see for miles, this Crockett Log Homes cabin was built in 2003 and offers the kind of setting that makes it hard to leave, especially when the sunrise comes up over the mountains. The 4-bedroom, 3-bath log home features a first-floor primary suite with a gas fireplace and jacuzzi tub. The living room has cathedral ceilings and a large stone wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and inviting centerpiece for the home. The kitchen is well appointed with an island, propane range, double wall oven, and hickory cabinets handcrafted by a local Amish craftsman, who also built the fireplace mantle and stairs. Solid wood flooring runs through the living and dining areas, while the kitchen and bathrooms feature radiant floor heat. Quality Marvin windows and doors, central vac, and a 1,000-gallon buried propane tank add comfort, efficiency, and convenience. The Superior Walls basement has outside access and offers room to expand into additional living space, a large recreation area, or storage. Outdoor living is a highlight, with a covered porch wrapping the entire way around the home, offering plenty of space to relax and take in the peaceful wooded setting and sweeping mountain views. Outbuildings provide excellent storage, shop space, and room for hobbies, equipment, and even the boat. Built in 2018, the 32x60 Fisher Brothers pole shed is insulated, and the 40x60 TriState pole building was built in 2002. The property is accessed by a township dirt road with winter maintenance and has trails throughout the land. For the outdoor enthusiast, this property is hard to beat. Three wooden blinds and two ladder stands stay with the property, and the land holds an abundance of deer, bear, and turkey, with even an elk spotted on the property at one time. Located less than 200 yards from Sproul State Forest and the Salt Lick Trail access road, you are close to thousands of acres of public hunting land, along with nearby State Game Lands 92. Howard Lake and the Bald Eagle State Forest area are only about 15 minutes away, adding even more outdoor recreation opportunities to this incredible mountain retreat. Come experience Hummingbird Hideaway for yourself at the open house on July 18 & July 31 , where the views, setting, and privacy are even better than the pictures!
