About this home
Welcome to 1425 Center Road, a beautifully maintained cottage-style home located in the heart of School Lane Hills, one of Lancaster’s most desirable neighborhoods. This exceptional property offers a rare opportunity for mostly one-floor living, a gracious open layout, and a stunning private backyard with in-ground pool, perfect for relaxed living and elegant entertaining.
Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, this home features a thoughtful floor plan filled with natural light, hardwood flooring, and a blend of classic charm and modern comforts. The spacious living room welcomes you with a gas fireplace and custom built-ins, creating a cozy yet refined space for gathering.
The updated kitchen is a standout, with a center island, granite counters, and an open connection to the formal dining room, which offers lovely views of the rear yard and pool. Just beyond, the first-floor family room is a true highlight—boasting a wall of windows, a wood-burning fireplace, stone flooring, and a layout that invites indoor-outdoor living year-round.
At the heart of the main level is the luxurious primary suite, offering a spacious bedroom with ample room for a king-sized bed, an adjacent walk-in closet with custom organizers and cabinetry, and a spa-like en-suite bath with a custom shower and integrated laundry area. A second bedroom and full bath complete the main floor.
Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms and a third full bath—one bedroom includes a private balcony overlooking the pool and gardens. A bonus room with independent HVAC offers the perfect space for a second living area, studio, or private office.
The private backyard is designed for both quiet enjoyment and memorable entertaining. A stone terrace offers multiple seating areas, while the in-ground pool and poolside fireplace create a resort-like atmosphere. The oversized attached garage provides generous storage and vehicle space, and the unfinished basement offers exciting potential for a future rec room, gym, or workshop.
The front of the home is quarried stone, and the rear of the home is clad in James HardiePlank siding, offering lasting curb appeal and low-maintenance convenience. All pre-listing inspection reports are available, giving buyers confidence in the home’s condition and care.
Centrally located with quick access to LCDS, Franklin & Marshall College, Buchanan Park, Central Market, the Fulton Theatre, top-rated restaurants, and Lancaster’s vibrant downtown, this home blends comfort, quality, and location into one rare opportunity.
