Built in 1880, this beautiful home sits on 0.8 acres and overlooks pastoral Lancaster County. It also is a quick jaunt to downtown Lititz, the Coolest Small Town in America (according to Travel Magazine) or to downtown Lancaster. This location offers the perfect blend of urban and rural. The Chestnut Street neighborhood is quiet, friendly and welcoming. From the front porch of the home, you can look out across the neighboring farmland. Set up a rocking chair and sip your morning coffee, or watch the lightning bugs appear with your children on a summer evening. Entering the home, you are met with a wide, warm space. Windows line the living room, highlighting the lovely hardwood floors and rustic exposed wood post. Pocket lights add additional, subtle lighting for a movie night with friends or opening gifts on Christmas Eve. The room sweeps around into the dining room and fully updated kitchen. The openness allows for hosting and entertaining; the design allows for warmth and welcome. A custom island anchors the kitchen, offering seating for up to four. Granite countertops, hardwood cabinets, new slate appliances, granite sink, and gorgeous pendant lights make this a space where the family will gather to eat and laugh and make lasting memories. Beyond the dining room, at the back of the home, is a large mudroom, laundry area, and full bathroom, complete with a shower to rinse off whatever outdoorsy-ness you may not want indoors. A wood-burning stove keeps the first floor cozy in the colder months and adds ambiance to family meals. At the top of the stairs are two bedrooms and a full bathroom. The bedrooms provide space for children's rooms or guest bedrooms. The exposed ceiling beams are original to the home, adding texture and character to the rooms. With built-in closets and loads of windows to offer sunlight, these rooms will make your children or your guests feel immediately at home. Walk back the short hall to the master suite. The grand room immediately sweeps away whatever cares the day has amassed. With a vaulted ceiling, seating area, walk-in closet, and french doors to your personal balcony, the atmosphere whispers "relax." The ensuite bathroom is spa-like and just as inviting with natural quartz accents and marble countertops. As you stand on your balcony, sipping a glass of wine, you can survey the large backyard, perfect for gardening or letting the kids run and play. The driveway is recently paved and offers ample parking. In addition, a home office, workshop, and extra-large garage has been constructed. With a custom work area, natural wood, expansive work space, pearled metallic flooring, and garage space for up to 4 cars (or boat, RV, etc), this property is ideal for a home business, woodworking shop, or an automotive enthusiast. In addition, this Chestnut Street property has a new roof, new siding, new electrical and mechanical, and new heating/cooling units. Come to Lititz and make this exquisite home yours.
