Description
Welcome to your new home! Conveniently located in the Northeast neighborhood in Lancaster City, it's just a short walk to several beloved Lancaster businesses, including Lancaster Brewing Company, Quips, Lancaster Science Factory, and ABG. One of the things you'll notice right away that makes this property extra special is the width- the first floor is over 21 feet wide! Another striking feature is the abundance of natural light that streams in through multiple windows on the detached side. It's not every day that you find a property in Lancaster City that feels so spacious and sunny. The gorgeous honey-colored flooring is waterproof, made from sustainable materials, and was recently installed throughout most of the home. Within the last ten years, several other items have been updated, including a new roof, new water heater, new electric heat pump, new A/C unit, a new main sewer line, spot repointing of brick, new fixtures, updated wiring, whole house painting and wall repair by a professional, installation of a radon removal system and much more. The second-floor features three bedrooms, one full bath, and a bonus space that could be used as an office, nursery, walk-in closet, or even to expand the bathroom. Come check it out before it's gone!
