A rare opportunity to own a completely reimagined single-family home in the heart of Lancaster City’s vibrant SOWE/Cabbage Hill neighborhood.

Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms including a primary suite with ensuite bath, plus a conveniently located 2nd-floor laundry area. All bathrooms are brand-new with ceramic tile, upscale fixtures, and modern design.
The basement level offers even more flexibility with stone and brick accents, clean finishes, and space ideal for a home gym, wine cellar, or cozy lounge.
Enjoy the outdoors in the large backyard with new sod and plenty of room for entertaining or relaxing.
Key exterior upgrades include:
Full roof replacement, new gutters, and downspouts
All new windows, doors (front & rear), and fresh paint
Brick repointing, masonry repairs, and updated steps/railings
Yale smart keypad locks for front and back entries
Major mechanical updates provide peace of mind:
All-new 100-amp electrical panel & wiring
Brand-new HVAC system (gas heat, electric AC) and full ductwork
New hot water heater
Recessed lighting with dimmer switches throughout
This is more than a renovation—it’s a rebirth of a historic home with modern comforts, low-maintenance systems, and timeless appeal, just minutes from Lancaster’s best dining, shopping, and downtown culture.
