This timeless 1940s Colonial Revival home, nestled on a .75-acre lot in the picturesque School Lane Hills neighborhood of Lancaster, seamlessly blends historical elegance with modern convenience. Situated among majestic, mature trees, the property boasts a gated entrance, a circular driveway, and generous parking space. The outdoor areas are equally impressive, featuring a spacious flagstone patio equipped with built-in speakers for a tranquil retreat. The lower-level patio, highlighted by a built-in granite table, is ideal for entertaining family and friends, while the upper-level patio provides extra seating and space for grilling. Inside, the inviting home exudes warmth with beautiful hardwood floors and tile, complemented by natural light streaming in through the windows. The custom kitchen, overlooking the lush backyard, is a chef’s dream with professional-grade appliances, including a Wolf gas cooktop range, two Bosch wall ovens, as well as a built-in dishwasher and Sub-Zero refrigerator with integrated paneling. Granite countertops, radiant heated floors, and underlit cabinets add a touch of luxury. Off the kitchen is the dining room with built-in storage, a butcher block coffee bar, and a comfortable sitting area. Adorning the living room is an elegant carved wood fireplace with a marble hearth and surround with room on top for a TV. A bright sunroom, with gorgeous Italian tile, is a quiet spot for reading or enjoying meals and opens directly to the back patio. Also opening to the back patio is an office/family room with rich wood paneling, built-in bookshelves, and a cozy wood fireplace insert—ideal for working from home or relaxing in front of the TV. On the second level, you’ll find five bedrooms, three renovated full bathrooms, and a laundry room with a wall-mounted ironing board. Each bedroom has its own thermostat for personalized comfort. The owner's suite is a serene haven, showcasing two walk-in closets and an elegant bathroom with double sinks, a tiled walk-in shower, custom cabinetry, and a cozy sitting nook. Two of the other bedrooms are ideally suited for guests, with two adjacent bathrooms and a private staircase to the main level. The finished lower level has a versatile rec room that can accommodate a TV, games, or gym equipment. It also opens to an extra storage room with a Bilco door for access to the outside. The utility room in the lower level provides extra storage, and there are also hookups for a second washer and dryer. A substantial first-floor storage area with a garage door ensures ample space for all your needs. The storage area opens to a convenient mudroom with access to the kitchen. The mudroom includes radiant heated floors and a closet that can double as a pantry. Additional features of the home include built-in speakers on much of the main level, security cameras all around the home, and a whole-house gas-powered generator that activates automatically during power outages. Perfectly located near dining, shopping, entertainment, Downtown Lancaster, Lancaster Country Day School, Franklin & Marshall College, and Buchanan Park, this historic home offers the perfect combination of effortless living and refined elegance.
