About This Home

Step into timeless character and thoughtful craftsmanship in this beautifully restored late Victorian (c. 1885) detached home located in Chestnut Hill, one of Lancaster City’s most desirable neighborhoods.  Rarely offered, this property features no shared walls, blending historic charm with the privacy of a single-family home. A double-door vestibule welcomes you inside, where original wood flooring, custom millwork, and meticulously restored baseboard and crown moldings set the tone. The home’s architectural integrity shines through with reproduction entry and foyer doors, original windows paired with storm windows for efficiency, and cedar shutters enhancing the classic brick exterior. The kitchen offers a seamless blend of old and new, featuring inset cabinetry and heated floors for everyday comfort. A marble fireplace anchors the living space, while modern upgrades—including all-new electrical (200 amp), copper plumbing, dual-zone central air, and a natural gas boiler with hot water radiators—ensure peace of mind. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a flexible third-floor space ideal for a bedroom, library, office, or studio. Additional highlights include a deep two-car garage with attic storage, composite roofing with the look of slate, and charming brick sidewalks that complete the curb appeal. A truly special home where historic detail meets modern livability—right in the heart of Lancaster City.
