Set back on three-quarters of an acre, with sweeping cornfield views out front and a private in-ground pool out back—this is the kind of setting you come to Conestoga for. There’s something special about this property before you ever step inside. The home sits well off the road, creating a sense of privacy and presence, while directly across the street, open farmland stretches into the distance. From the front porch, the view is pure Lancaster County—quiet, scenic, and surrounded by the countryside that makes this area so desirable. Inside, the home is every bit as impressive. Generously sized rooms give the entire floor plan an open, comfortable feel, anchored by a beautiful kitchen with plenty of space to gather. A first-floor half bath adds convenience, while upstairs, the rare advantage of two full bathrooms makes the second floor exceptionally functional. Then there’s the backyard. A large sunroom with its own entertaining bar opens directly to an in-ground pool, creating an incredible indoor-outdoor entertaining space. Summer afternoons by the water, evenings at the bar, family gatherings and weekends with friends—this backyard was designed to be enjoyed. A finished basement provides even more living and recreational space, while the massive garage offers exceptional room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or a workshop. But what truly separates this home is the setting. You can renovate a bathroom, you can't recreate three-quarters of an acre, a home set this far from the road, and open Lancaster County farmland as your front-porch view. A beautiful home, an incredible pool, and one of those unmistakably Conestoga settings that simply feels like home.

LDR
Low Density Residential District
The purpose of this district is to provide for low-density residential development opportunities in the areas generally surrounding the central village portion of the Township and the areas to its north. This area contains established residential developments as well as agricultural and undeveloped areas, and provides opportunities for development of single-family detached dwellings. This area will rely primarily on private septic and water systems, although there is opportunity for the development of community systems in the future, especially in the areas near the Village.
