Property Description
This converted semi-detached, brick Victorian is a two-unit ; the first floor has served as office space since the 1970's; the 2nd/3rd floor is a large apartment. There is a 6 -7 space parking lot at the rear accessed from North Christian Street. A deeded easement on 38 East New Street, around the corner but abutting the parking lot in the rear, allows #626 to use its driveway to access East New Street. Set in Lancaster City's historic Ross District in the Northeast Quadrant, the RO zoning, appropriate for residential, commercial, and institutional purposes, makes these properties attractive for a variety of purposes: medical offices, professional offices, general offices, even group a home. The office on the first floor of #626 includes a large multi-desk area, conference room, private office, and kitchen/work room.; it has two powder rooms and central air. There is a concrete access ramp from the rear parking lot. The second/third floor unit serves as a shabby-chic three bedroom apartment that's larger than many city houses. Its kitchen isn't retro - it's pure '50.'s! Basically in need of cosmetics, the property is being sold as is. The owners, both of whom are licensed Pennsylvania real estate agents who might share in the profit or loss on this sale, have no knowledge of any substantial defects and have no intentions of performing remedial work on the building.
