Wood-burning fireplaceDetached garageFresh paintOriginal hardwoodsCovered front porchLong private drivewayThree bedrooms

The hard work is done. This School Lane Hills brick home has been thoughtfully updated where it counts, starting with a brand-new Bryant dual-fuel HVAC system, a 97% efficient gas furnace paired with a variable-speed heat pump for quiet, efficient comfort year-round. Recent updates also include windows, the sewer line, water heater, sidewalks, and an EV charger. All that’s left is to move in. Inside, you’ll find fresh paint, original hardwoods, a wood-burning fireplace, an updated kitchen, three bedrooms, and two full baths, including one on the lower level alongside the laundry and a convenient outside entrance. Enjoy the covered front porch and a fenced backyard with a peaceful native plant garden that draws pollinators and thrives with minimal care. A long private driveway leads to the detached garage, a rare combination this close to the city. Close to Buchanan Park and F&M, and only minutes from downtown Lancaster’s restaurants, shops, museums, and cafes.
