About the host

Hosted by Sharareh Zolghadr

Host profile image
Hello! My name is Sharareh (Sherry) me and my husband and two sons have been living in state college for over 25 years. I am a scientist and my husband owns a small business and does rentals throughout the state college area. We have always loved hosting parties and meeting all the wonderful people that come to our town. We're looking forward to hosting you!

Why they chose this property

When we walked into this house my husband said "we are saving this old building". That was our main motivation and to use as much material as we can that came from the church,To restore it to as close (to original) as we can and have it still be a home.
We will do the best we can to keep the flair and the flavor the same.

What makes this property unique

Very tall ceiling, the original wood floor, the tall entryway door and the round windows are just some of the charm in this house.
