About this home
A RARE Conestoga River WATERFONT retreat — right in your own backyard. Welcome to 1865 Wilderness Road, a truly special property where everyday living comes with river views, peaceful surroundings, and direct access to the water. This is the kind of setting that is hard to find: private, scenic, and naturally beautiful, yet still close to the conveniences of Lancaster.
The moment you step through the front door, this home makes an impression. You enter directly into the main-level living room, where your eyes carry straight through the kitchen to the river beyond — an immediate reminder that the Conestoga is part of the everyday backdrop. From morning coffee overlooking the water to summer evenings on the deck, weekend kayaking, tubing, fishing, cookouts, firepit gatherings or simply unwinding outdoors, this home offers more than a place to live — it offers a lifestyle.
The main level features a spacious bedroom with a huge walk-in closet and access to a Jack-and-Jill-style full bath. The eat-in kitchen opens directly to the upper deck, creating an easy connection between indoor living and outdoor enjoyment.
Also on the main level is a converted garage, now finished as an impressive flex space with a second laundry hookup, connection for a second refrigerator, built-in shelving and desk/workspace areas. Whether used as a home office, studio, hobby room, pantry extension, storage-rich drop zone or multi-purpose living space, this room gives the next owner options that are both practical and valuable.
Upstairs, the second floor offers a spacious primary-style suite with full bath creating a private and comfortable retreat. A second large bedroom with walk-in closet completes the upper level, adding even more usable space and flexibility while maintaining the charm of the Cape Cod-style design.
The finished walk-out lower level expands the home even further, offering a living area with connection to add a wet-bar, bedroom, full bath with an oversized spa like walk in shower, laundry area and full wall of custom built-in shelving and cabinetry. From this level you have direct walk-out access to the backyard and lower-level deck and direct access to the garage. This level is ideal for guests, extended household living, recreation, or a private owners retreat.
Outdoor living is the true showstopper. With an upper deck off the kitchen, a lower deck from the finished walk-out level and the Conestoga River as the backdrop, the setting feels like your own private escape. Relax, entertain, explore, or simply enjoy the view — this property delivers the kind of outdoor experience buyers rarely have an opportunity to pursue....
