Listing description

Live in the heart of Lancaster City—where everything you love is just a short walk away—while making a smart move for your future. This fully updated two-unit property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy city living with built-in income. Imagine starting your day with a walk to Lancaster Central Market, grabbing coffee on your way to Penn Square, and coming home to a space that blends historic character with modern comfort. The property features a spacious 3-bedroom, 1-bath unit and a well-appointed 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit—both completely renovated in 2021. Thoughtful updates include LVP flooring, granite countertops, updated lighting and plumbing fixtures, and central A/C in both units, along with efficient gas heat. Inside, you’ll find the details that make a house feel like home—exposed brick, arched windows, and natural light pouring in throughout the day. Both units offer generous kitchen cabinet space, ample closets, and the convenience of in-unit washer and dryer. Currently tenant-occupied, this property allows you to step into ownership with immediate income. Live in one unit while the other helps offset your mortgage—giving you the freedom to enjoy your home while building equity at the same time. Located just steps from the Amtrak station and within the LGH employee zone, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Walk to restaurants, shops, and everything downtown Lancaster has to offer. Opportunities like this don’t come along often—the chance to live well, simplify your life, and make a smart financial move all at once.
