Elmwood House for Sale

Elmwood condenses industrial workplaces and modest suburban villages, and residents live a quick drive away from popular York County retail hubs. The community is settled beside the bustling Interstate 83 corridor and between the towns of York and Springettsbury for shopping runs or dining destinations, while the state capital of Harrisburg is a half-hour from home for work. Most homes are established, with little room for new development. “Elmwood is within the Suburban School District, where there’s really been no land left for years,” says Sandra Fake, a sales associate with Coldwell Banker with 29 years of experience in York County. “That means not much is available as far as new construction.” Homes in Elmwood range from $175,000 to $320,000, varying by age, remodel status and square footage. The neighborhood is populated with brick ramblers, Cape Cods, split-levels and Foursquare-style homes built from the turn of the century through the Postwar era. Semi-detached townhouses are also available in the community. “Elmwood is an old section of town,” says Fake. “People usually take care of their homes, so it’s hard to find fixer-uppers in this area.” Residents drive down
