About This Home

As of February 2023

Tucked in an established neighborhood in the heart of Lancaster is this updated four-bedroom home. Classic architecture meets designer finishes in this 1706 square foot duplex, and each room flows effortlessly into the next. Featuring OFF-STREET PARKING in the back with additional parking on street.

When you walk through the front door you’ll be in the spacious living area, a warm and welcoming lounge space with a vibrant red accent wall, vinyl tiled floors, and a bold stone fireplace in the corner. This roomy living area has plenty of space for all of your favorite furniture, and large windows allow for plenty of natural light. The living room transitions into the fully furnished kitchen, a recently upgraded space finished with name-brand appliances, glass and chrome finishes, custom cabinets, a built-in wet bar, granite counters, and a beautiful wood plank backsplash that brings it all together. On the other side of the kitchen is a second sitting area, a sun-filled space with a brick accent wall, soft carpeting, and more windows to let in plenty of sunlight. There is a full bathroom on the first floor that has a tub/shower combo.

A staircase leads from the living room up to the second story. Here you’ll find three private bedrooms; blank canvases to create a space for everyone in your family. These bedrooms are open and airy, all with large windows, plenty of outlets, and spacious closets. On the second floor you’ll also find a designated laundry area and a second bathroom with a glass enclosed shower.

A second staircase leads to a bonus space/4th bedroom on the third level. This open space has lofty ceilings, exposed wood beams, plush carpeting, and decorative light fixtures. This could be used as a home office, playroom, teen hangout space, home gym, or guest room.

If you love to entertain, you’ll love the private backyard and lounge areas. An elevated deck is the perfect place to put a picnic table, outdoor dining area, hammocks, or outdoor couches and create a comfortable outdoor hangout space. The backyard is a combination of brick pavers and grassy spaces, and a swing set is already set up and ready for fun. Fences line both sides of the backyard for privacy, and the storage shed at the back of the property is perfect for storing tools, outdoor toys, or seasonal decorations.

This home is just minutes from local grocery stores, banks, public and private schools, coffee shops, parks, playgrounds, and commuter routes. If you’ve been looking for an upgraded, move-in ready home, come check out 535 Chester St!
