Property Description

New price- bright and airy West End gem move in ready and full of charm! This beautifully maintained and spacious home in the heart of downtown Lancaster has had only four owners across 100+ years and is ready for its next. Perfectly located, you can walk to Central Market, Chestnut Hill Café, Buchanan Park, Cabalar, West Art, and more. With a recent price improvement, this is a terrific opportunity to own a home in one of Lancaster's most desirable neighborhoods. Recent upgrades include a new deck, fence, and landscaping in the backyard-ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, you'll find fresh paint, new Scandinavian floating LVP flooring (original hardwood underneath), and upgraded kitchen appliances with a dishwasher, induction stove, and refrigerator. The newly renovated full bathroom features a soaking tub, fresh tile, and modern fixtures, with a convenient half bath located off the kitchen. Forced air ductwork is in place for central air to easily be added, if a buyer desires. Enjoy the neighborhood feel of a tree lined side street from your large covered front porch, freshly painted! Just one block long, Elm Street gets very little through traffic and is situated conveniently on the edge of Chestnut Hill, with easy access in and out of the city. A pre-listing inspection has been completed, and the report is available for review.
