About This Home
As of July 2026Welcome to 71 Circle Drive, Ephrata PA - a creekside property overlooking beautiful Cocalico Creek offering an in-ground pool, extensive updates, and a setting that combines outdoor enjoyment with convenient access to local parks, trails, shopping, dining, and downtown Ephrata amenities. The backyard features an in-ground pool with a new liner and pool pump installed in 2023, creating a relaxing outdoor space with scenic creek views and room for entertaining, summer gatherings, or quiet evenings outdoors. The backyard features a second fenced off section of the yard, perfect for seperating pets and children away from the pool area. Replacement windows and Andersen sliding doors help fill the home with natural light while creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces. Inside, numerous major improvements have already been completed, including a new roof and new HVAC system in 2022 for added efficiency and peace of mind. The kitchen includes appliances replaced in 2021, while the full bathroom was completely remodeled in 2024. A new electric water heater was also installed in 2026. The basement includes a perimeter waterproofing system, sump pit/pump, and water softener. Located approximately 0.3 miles to Ephrata Public Library, 0.6 miles to the Warwick-to-Ephrata Rail Trail, 0.8 miles to Ephrata Linear Park, and about 1.5 miles to grocery stores, this location offers convenient access to everyday essentials along with nearby restaurants, coffee shops, cafes, community events, and downtown Ephrata attractions. With scenic creek views, valuable system updates already completed, and easy access to recreation and local amenities, this property offers a unique opportunity to enjoy both comfort and convenience in Lancaster County.
