Welcome to Altoona's Venbury neighborhood! This fabulous townhome is the perfect downsizer! Recently retired...empty nester? This 55+ community is perfect for you.

A finished walkout basement is well suited for visiting adult children or family and friends when they visit. A brick patio is a great place for a small fire pit and couple of chairs for relaxing. Most of the mechanicals have been updated in the last few years as well as the roof and composite deck. New siding will be going on soon! A quiet cul-de-sac gives a friendly community feel. Close to restaurants, shopping, casino and interstate! This really is the perfect location!!
