About This Home

As of February 2023

Step back in time in this beautiful and historic 1895 Queen Anne Victorian home, Columbia’s famous Long Mansion, featured in the 2019 Columbia Architectural Tour. This 6 bedroom/2.5 bath home has been restored to its former glory and has kept its original charm. The mansion still contains the original woodwork, pocket doors, doorknobs, ornate hinges, and unique stained-glass windows. The wrap-around front porch offers a wonderful space to host family, neighbors, and friends! This home comes with a recently replaced roof, updated mechanical systems, and privacy fence installed in 2020. The updated and spacious kitchen is perfect for hosting family gatherings. The chef in the family will enjoy the granite countertops, abundant storage, double oven, and deep sink. The third floor of this home includes an extra bedroom and full bathroom. Additionally located on this floor is an open concept game room with pool table, an exposed brick gallery wall, a relaxing balcony with beautiful view, and a turret room with built-in butcher block maple tops and sink area. This turret room is an ideal studio space for the creative thinker, artist, or artisan. This home overflows with character and possibilities! The location of this home is within walking distance of schools, churches, pubs, restaurants, the Columbia Market, antique shops, and the lovely Northwest Lancaster County River Trail. It also perfect for commuting to both York and Lancaster. Homes with deep and rich histories such as this are not found on the market every day. Schedule your showing today, and have the opportunity to travel back in time!
