This gorgeous home in downtown Lancaster offers the ideal blend of contemporary, urban living with stunning, old-style architecture. Built in 1879, this home carries with it the rich history of Lancaster. The curb appeal begins with painted brick fa�ade, wrought iron railings wrapping the front porch, and a cheerfully painted front door. Step from the front porch into the tiled entryway and you are enveloped in an oasis of cool colors, high ceilings, and the warmth of sunlight. The living room?s tall windows are new and energy efficient. With beautiful hardwood floors and unique architectural details, such as a lofted shelf and carved banister, this room invites you to linger a little, put up your feet, and savor life?s details. Back the hall is the expansive dining room and kitchen. Gone are the days of a crowded kitchen. The high ceilings, crown molding, and windows make this space feel open and alluring. Sip your morning coffee at the breakfast bar or watch your kids do their homework while you cook supper - there is space for everyone. With chopping-block countertops, tile flooring, and eye-catching cabinetry, this space is truly the heartbeat of the home. Just off the dining room is a half-bath and laundry area - both convenient and discrete. Walk out the kitchen door to the side porch and head back to the bonus room. With built-in shelving and space aplenty, this room is perfect for a home office, guest quarters, or even a workout room connected but private. Upstairs is the spacious, sunlight primary bedroom. New carpet, fresh paint, and a lovely view across Lancaster City, this room will provide an escape from the world. Curl up for a lazy Saturday of Netflix, or finally read that novel you?ve had on your reading list forever. Two additional bedrooms are equally as spacious and welcoming and ideal for kids or guests. The full bathroom completes the upstairs with a full bath and shower, tile floor, new vanity, and fresh paint. Head outside into the back yard. An expansive patio plays the perfect host for cookouts and garden parties. Up 2 steps, and there?s a grassy area. Let your pets run or plant your dream garden in this green oasis in the city. With its modern upgrades and central location, this is a Lancaster property worth seeing.
