About this home
Welcome to this beautifully remodeled Lancaster City townhouse in the historic Ross neighborhood, named for George Ross, the only Lancastrian to sign the Declaration of Independence. Fully remodeled in 2023 and thoughtfully maintained since, this 1,639-square-foot home offers the character of classic city living with the comfort, function, and convenience today’s buyers want.
Step inside to a warm and inviting main level featuring soaring 9-foot-plus ceilings, exposed brick detail in the living room, and a bright, comfortable layout ideal for everyday living or entertaining. The home blends historic Lancaster charm with modern updates throughout, including a fully remodeled kitchen, updated baths, and appliances purchased in 2023.
The second floor continues the spacious feel with ceilings over 8 feet and includes a primary bedroom suite with its own fully updated private bath. A second fully updated full bathroom adds convenience and flexibility. With three nicely sized bedrooms plus an additional room that can serve as a fourth bedroom, home office, guest room, or creative space, the home offers room to grow, work, host, or unwind.
Unlike many city townhouses, the third floor remains highly functional with ceiling heights over 7 feet, making the upper level feel comfortable and usable rather than cramped. The home also features central air conditioning and natural gas forced-air heat, both only a few years old.
The lower level provides valuable storage space, laundry with premium washer and dryer purchased in 2023, and direct outside access. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard that was stoned and patioed in 2025, creating a low-maintenance private outdoor retreat perfect for relaxing, dining, entertaining, or enjoying quiet evenings at home. A second-floor balcony overlooks the backyard and adds even more charm to the outdoor living space.
Location is a major highlight. This home is approximately a 15-minute walk to Downtown Lancaster, including Penn Square, Southern Market, Lancaster Central Market, restaurants, shops, boutiques, and the Lancaster Amtrak Station. Local favorites including Stubby’s, Quips, Cork & Cap Restaurant, and the Lancaster Science Factory are just moments away.
Move-in ready, fully remodeled, spacious, and walkable, this Ross neighborhood home offers the best of Lancaster City living with modern comfort and timeless character. Schedule your showing today....
