The Details

Located just off the Diamond in Hollidaysburg's Historic District, this mid-19th century brick residence combines exceptional period craftsmanship with flexible, multi-building living. With Chimney Rocks visible on the skyline, the property sits in the heart of town yet offers complete privacy behind its walled courtyard. Authentic Historic Details The main house showcases the artistry of its era throughout. A grand wood staircase with turned balustrade anchors the entry hall, while gleaming hardwood floors, high ceilings, and exposed brick create dramatic spaces. Period fireplaces with original mantels serve as focal points in multiple rooms. The standout feature: original stained-glass windows in vibrant jewel tones. Arched transoms with Art Nouveau florals, geometric side panels, and ornamental accents bring color and light into the living spaces--true works of art that can't be easily reproduced. Main House - Flexible Floor Plan 4 bedrooms and 5 full baths across three floors. First-floor living includes formal living and dining rooms, family room, and a sunroom with multiple exposures. The second floor features three bedrooms, including two suites with en-suite baths. One second-floor bedroom opens to a private balcony overlooking the courtyard below. The entire third floor functions as a self-contained apartment with its own kitchen, family room, bedroom, and full bath--ideal for extended family, guests, or flexible living arrangements. The Courtyard - Your Private Garden Oasis The heart of this property is the gated, walled courtyard that connects all three buildings. Brick walkways meander through established gardens anchored by the signature mimosa tree, creating intimate outdoor rooms for dining, entertaining, or quiet mornings with coffee. Wrought-iron fencing, mature landscaping, and multiple seating areas give the space a European garden feel--rare to find in the center of a bustling borough. The screened sunroom opens directly to the courtyard, blending indoor and outdoor living seamlessly. The Cottage - A Complete Secondary Residence Across the courtyard sits a fully detached 1-bedroom, 1.5-bath brick cottage with loft (1,535 sq ft)--a complete residence in its own right. With its own kitchen, living areas, and private entrance, the cottage offers true separation and flexibility. Use it for extended family, long-term guests, a home office or creative studio, or explore rental income potential. The cottage enjoys the same courtyard access and historic charm as the main house, making it feel like a seamless part of the property while maintaining total independence. Prime Location A block to Hollidaysburg's town square, shops, and restaurants from this quiet, private setting. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved historic property with modern versatility and exceptional outdoor space. Currently known as the Mimosa Courtyard Inn.
