About This Home

As of November 2022

Welcome to this stately brick semi-detached home in the thriving community of Ephrata. As you walk up the front steps, you'll be greeted by a cheery front door and inviting porch where you can relax and enjoy the breeze. If you like porch sitting, this home has two great porches for your enjoyment. When you enter the home, you will notice the charm of hardwood floors, 10 ft high ceilings and large windows that let in lots of light. All of the windows (except 2) were replaced with vinyl tilt-in style in 2018 keeping you extra warm in the winter. The first floor provides a large living room, dining room with ample space for entertaining, and kitchen with first floor laundry. The back door off the kitchen opens onto the back porch and the private, fenced in yard that leads to your two off-street parking spaces. On the second floor of the home, there are three bedrooms and a full bath with both a shower and a clawfoot tub. The back bedroom provides access to your own little balcony, while the front bedroom boasts a beautiful bow window. Proceed up to the third floor to find what could be a fourth bedroom, den or art studio along with a walk in closet. This home is in a fantastic location with the Ephrata-Lititz Rail Trail only a half block away, coffee shops and eateries only 2 blocks away, and the community pool, elementary school and high school football games all within walking distance. Don't miss out on your opportunity to own this home with affordable taxes!
