Step inside to discover a perfect blend of timeless character and modern luxury. The spacious main level is filled with natural light and features refinished hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace, and original built-ins that nod to the home's 19th-century roots. The rare, open-concept floor plan seamlessly connects the living area to the high-end designer kitchen, complete with quartz countertops, an statement custom range hood, gorgeous tile backsplash, and polished nickel fixtures. A thoughtfully designed coffee bar with pantry storage adds everyday convenience and style. Beyond the kitchen, a flexible bonus room offers endless possibilities—use it as a formal dining room, office, or playroom. A second staircase off this room and additional built-ins add a layer of historic charm. Toward the back of the home, you'll find a mudroom area with custom coat rack and shoe storage, a beautiful new powder room, and access to the fully fenced backyard and detached two-car garage via the private rear alley. The second level offers an elegant and thoughtfully designed layout, featuring two spacious bedrooms and two luxurious bathrooms. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a sun-filled bay window, dual closets, and a spa-like ensuite bathroom boasting a lovely double vanity, large tiled walk-in shower, and desirable soaking tub. A convenient second-floor laundry room adds function, while the second bedroom opens directly to a private balcony overlooking the backyard. A beautifully finished hall bathroom with tiled tub/shower serves guests or family with style. The third floor provides two additional bedrooms—perfect for guest rooms, a home office, or a cozy retreat. This home is move-in ready with brand new, efficient natural gas HVAC and no detail overlooked. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a character-filled home with luxury finishes and a two-car garage in one of Lancaster’s best neighborhoods!
