Property Description
Multiple offers received. Offer Deadline 04/20/26. Whether you're looking for a spacious single family dwelling or a lucrative two unit investment property ready to cash flow, your search stops right here. The magic of this home is how perfectly it can serve either purpose. With a fire door between both apartments and a wall that can easily be removed (as it has been before) between the front entryway/stairwell and the living room, this home can easily serve as a spacious single family dwelling that flows elegantly throughout. When you stand outside looking upon this home there's a few things that stand out. The color scheme accenting the beautiful windows and timeless brick that reflect the historical beauty of the home. The pattern of the slate on the front roof of the home is preserved perfectly from a time when architectural beauty truly served as a priority. The three floors of this home tower boldly, standing as an essential piece of what makes E Orange street so beautiful. When you step inside, there are a few things that stand out on the first floor of this home. Impressively high ceilings, a formal dining room with plenty of room for a sizable table, a large living room with windows reaching almost floor to ceiling, and a gorgeous kitchen with corian countertops, modern stainless steel appliances, including the coveted double oven. Throughout the home you'll find an elegant combination of luxurious hardwood floors and plush carpet. The primary bedroom makes life better with a private bathroom, and in-suite laundry. The 2nd bedroom can alternatively serve as an office space. When you walk through the fire door into what is currently apartment 2, you'll ogle the continuous handrail spanning all the way from the 1st floor up to the 3rd floor. If utilized as a single family residence, the apt 2 kitchen can be converted into, or utilized as a bedroom as it served previously. Never find yourself stranded with 3 private parking spaces behind the house to call your own. The location is ideal, as it is merely minutes from several of Lancaster's most desirable locations, including Central Market. This home isn't just an investment property, but a home that can be utilized in different ways depending on your current needs, or wherever life takes you.
