Simple living in Lancaster
Established in 1791, Quarryville, Pennsylvania, is a tight-knit community of 2,700 residents. Primarily comprised of farms and agricultural plots occupied by Amish residents, Quarryville serves as the city center for southern Lancaster County. Occupying 1.3 square miles, Quarryville has two state highways and one U.S. route running through it, making the town more accessible than some of the surrounding rural areas. “When I’m driving home, I get views that people who live in cities will never experience in their lives, and I get to experience them every day,” says resident and Realtor Ally Glomb of Berkshire Hathaway HomeSale Realty. “I don’t take that for granted.”

Family-owned shops and farm-to-table dining options
Shopping is simple in Quarryville: clothing, shoes, home goods and hardware are available at the locally owned Good’s Store. Animal feed is sold at the family-owned R.H. Rohrer & Sons, Inc. mill, furniture can be purchased at the family-run Newswanger Furniture store and groceries are gathered at the GIANT on the west end of downtown. “You have everything you need,” Glomb says. “No matter where you are, a grocery store’s only three minutes away.” She goes on to explain that for more shopping, residents do have to drive about 30 minutes, but “it’s nice because you’re close to the city without ever being affected by its busyness or its noise.” There are several locally loved restaurants in Quarryville, like Quarryville Family Restaurant, a classic family-owned diner serving home-cooked meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner; The Daily Grind, a coffee shop that partners with local dairy suppliers, farmers and bakers to source farm-fresh ingredients; and El Milagro Bakery and Taqueria, a casual, authentic Mexican restaurant and bakery.

Quaint cabins to historic properties on multi-acre lots
“Quarryville is a very quiet, safe, family-oriented community,” Glomb says. “And people move here when they’re ready to settle down.” The architecture is fairly diverse, with quaint log cabins, rustic split levels and historic late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century homes all being available for sale. The average home value in Quarryville is about $350,000, with price points ranging from around $100,000 for a new two-bedroom trailer, to $200,000 for a detached 1800s-style historic row home, and into the mid $300,000s to $400,000s for a three-bedroom traditional single-family home. For those looking for larger estate homes complete with multi-acre lots should expect to pay upwards of $600,000. Most homes sit on large plots of land with sprawling yards on all sides, but the houses closer to downtown Quarryville are more tightly packed into neighborhoods. Several new neighborhood communities are being developed near downtown, like Hidden Valley Estates and Fritz Meadow, both of which will feature large, newly built traditional-style single-family homes.

Parks in Quarryville
Largely comprised of farmland, there’s no shortage of outdoor activities in Quarryville. From neighborhood parks to hiking trails, hunting lands and campgrounds. “It’s a very beautiful place to live,” Glomb says. Huffnagle Park is a neighborhood recreation space complete with large and small picnic pavilions and an inclusive playground for children of all abilities. Legion Memorial Park offers 15 acres of open spaces, sports courts and recreational services like summer camps, sports leagues and exercise classes. The park is also home to the SECA Pool, which has swim lessons, water aerobics, a swim team and lifeguard training courses. The Theodore A. Parker III Natural Area is 100 acres of preserved Pennsylvania forest, with a trail running along the Stewart Run stream and a variety of plant life like trout lilies, violets and mayapples and animals like birds, deer and raccoons. The historic Enola Low Grade Rail Trail stretches across southern Lancaster County and spans eight municipalities including Quarryville. In Quarryville, its access points aren’t far from shops and restaurants, and beyond Quarryville, it runs through the Lancaster countryside along working Amish farms. State Game Lands Number 136 is a small, wooded hunting area, with white-tailed deer, turkey and squirrels being the most hunted species and red fox, raccoons and mink being the most common furbearers. The area also has hiking, bird watching and geocaching. For a weekend of relaxation, Oma’s Family Campground and Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort offer camping options, the former located in the Amish countryside and offering campers the opportunity to visit nearby farms to purchase home-grown vegetables, flowers, plants, bread and pies and the latter being a more developed destination complete with a waterpark, sports courts and hayrides.
