    What's special

    Modern fixturesGuest roomBack patioHardwood floorsUpdated appliancesAmbient lightingNew windows
    This beautifully renovated home on North Shippen Street, built in 1900, is an architectural gem. The front window boxes and freshly painted façade make this home look like it’s straight out of Magnolia magazine. Once inside, the open-plan living room, dining room, and kitchen make it a versatile space for entertaining that wild gaggle of coworkers or hosting an intimate candlelight dinner. The original hardwood floors, ambient lighting, soothing color palate, and floods of natural light create a warm and welcoming space. The kitchen’s granite countertops, tile flooring and backsplash, modern fixtures, and updated appliances will draw you into the heart of the home and inspire you to pursue all your culinary aspirations. Just off the kitchen is a discrete and convenient half-bath. Climb the stairs to the second floor and step in to the primary bedroom. Feel your stress dissipate as you open the window to hear the chirrup of songbirds and the sounds of the city settling. Watch the twilight illuminate the gorgeous hardwood floor and the wainscoting panels. Recline with a glass of wine and a good book. The secondary bedroom is light and airy, with a warm, wooded accent wall—perfect for an additional bedroom or guest room. The full bathroom is spa-like and fully renovated with lovely new tile and countertop, fixtures, and flooring. On the 3rd floor is the 3rd bedroom and another full bathroom. A quiet retreat (with a gabled view of Shippen Street) for a guest room, library, or home office. And that’s not all! A partially renovated basement provides a place for a yoga studio, playroom, or man cave. The back patio provides a picturesque outdoor space for sipping coffee while watching the sunrise or eating al fresco on a summer evening. The surrounding garden is private, lush, and green – a plant-lover’s dream come true. This home offers space for everyone. With all new windows and central air, you will be comfortable year-round. This Lancaster home requires nothing but for you to move in and make it yours.
