This beautifully maintained 4 bedroom, 2 full bath end unit offers over 1,700 square feet of inviting living space, rich with warmth, texture, and timeless detail. From the moment you step inside, you are welcomed by soaring 9 foot ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a striking exposed brick wall that stretches the length of the living area, creating a truly memorable space. The seamless flow from living to dining feels both open and intimate, enhanced by curated lighting and natural light pouring in from both the front and rear of the home. The kitchen is equal parts stylish and functional, featuring crisp white cabinetry, a classic subway tile backsplash, open shelving, and stainless steel appliances. Just beyond, a rear mudroom and full bath offer a convenient everyday entry, perfect after enjoying time outside. The outdoor space is truly special. A fully fenced backyard with a 6 foot privacy fence, beautifully landscaped garden beds, and a blend of stamped concrete patio and stone walkways creates a private oasis ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or quiet evenings around the fire pit. Upstairs, you will find three well appointed bedrooms, including a light filled front bedroom with a charming bay window that brings in an abundance of natural light. The rear bedroom features its own private balcony. The full bath showcases clean, modern finishes paired with ornate tile flooring. The third level offers a finished attic space, perfect as a fourth bedroom, home office, or creative retreat, complete with cozy angles and natural light. Additional highlights include mini split systems for efficient cooling, updated fixtures throughout, two off street parking spaces, and the added benefit of an end unit, providing extra light and privacy. Located in Lancaster’s desirable West End, 23 Ruby offers more than just space. It offers character, charm, and a lifestyle that is truly hard to replicate.
