Property Description
Located in Ephrata's most coveted neighborhood, this is the total package: a sprawling ranch layout, premium updates (including new Hvac and replacement windows), exceptional neighborhood setting, and the kind of meticulous ownership buyers instantly recognize. Rarely does a rancher of this caliber become available anywhere in Lancaster County. From the moment you arrive, it's clear this property has been exceptionally maintained and thoughtfully upgraded. Inside, you'll find ultra-durable 40 mil luxury flooring-one of the highest-quality and most resilient flooring options available-designed to handle everyday life while elevating the home's overall feel. Major mechanical and infrastructure updates provide true peace of mind, including a new high-efficiency Bosch HVAC system with smart thermostat, new electrical panel, and radon mitigation system. The kitchen and utility features continue the theme of quality and convenience with a new Whirlpool refrigerator, garbage disposal, Kineto reverse osmosis drinking water system with dedicated tap and refrigerator connection. Nearly every inch of the home has been improved, including new GFCI outlets throughout, updated Schlage deadbolts, cleaned and sanitized HVAC ductwork, new laundry shutoff valves, and attic fan installation. Exterior improvements are equally impressive. The roof was replaced in 2018 by Zimmerman Exteriors with previous owners, gutters and downspouts were updated with gutter guards added in 2025, the chimney was cleaned and capped in 2024, the cupola was freshly painted in 2024, and the front stone walkway was repaired and sealed 2026. Professional landscaping enhancements include Emerald Green arborvitae, dwarf globe blue spruce, and inkberry shrub installations, while the entire sidewalk was professionally power washed to complete the curb appeal. Additional highlights include replacement windows, Levelor cellular blinds throughout, an ADT security system with multiple exterior cameras and video doorbells, and a spacious basement that offers incredible flexibility. Enjoy the ease of expansive first-floor living without sacrificing location, all while being moments from parks, schools, tennis courts, and the heart of Ephrata in this stunning, meticulously upgraded home.
