1172-1174 Dix Run Rd

Embrace the beauty of this multi-faceted property nestled in the valley of Julian on 144.32 acres with spectacular mountain and wooded views. Dix Run, a natural waterway, flows through the property and creates a peaceful water feature with native trout. Enter into the massive 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom Chalet style home with exposed, original beams and beautiful, custom wood features throughout that are products of the land. The centerpiece of the house is the Great Room with vaulted ceilings, an exposed loft area, and a breathtaking floor-to-ceiling, stone, gas fireplace providing a peaceful warmth. The open-concept kitchen features abundant counter space and a classic island configuration to maximize workspace, flexibility, and gathering space. The adjoining eat-in area is large enough for a dreamy farmhouse-style table to gather around. The cozy but spacious family room is a great place to watch the Penn State games, play a board game, or kick back and relax. On the main floor you will also find a full bath with a soaking tub, a small bedroom/office, and a separate laundry room. Storage is something this home does not lack, the entry hall hosts ample closets and cabinets to store all your coats, shoes, and belongings. From the entry hall, there is direct access to the In-law/Aupair suite, beauty salon, and an oversized 3-car attached garage. The second floor of the home is the perfect place to relax. More than just a refuge from a long day, the well-appointed primary bedroom includes two walk-in closets, a sitting area, kitchenette/laundry, and private bath with a walk-in shower. The other spacious bedrooms and loft area overlook the Great Room. Another residence on this property is a 28 x 54 modular home ready for you to finish to your desire, strategically positioned amongst the trees with delightful stream frontage. Livestock can roam within the 30+/- acres of fenced pasture and escape from the weather in the large holding barn. Saddle up and enjoy the breathtaking views from the many riding trails. A workshop, 60x80 in size is perfect for your projects and equipment storage. This magnificent property is also home to the popular Stoney Brook event and wedding venue that features a beautiful barn structure with a bar area, outdoor seating with firepits, and camping sites. So many possibilities and even more features too numerous to list - contact your agent for all the details. One of the home's most valuable features is not apparent to the eye, but its a pleasant commute to nearby State College and Penn State University - only about 20 minutes. This lovely estate is a special find.
