This beautifully renovated Lancaster home, built in 1900, has early 20th Century charm, but with all the modern amenities. The large front porch with iron railings leads to an inviting entryway with Pennsylvania bluestone floor and beautiful woodwork. Take a deep breath as you enter the home. The open, tranquil living room welcomes you with light and warmth. New windows are throughout the home, and allow for sunlight and a cool breeze to sweep through the house on a crisp Fall Day. A wood-burning fireplace will keep you cozy on a winter’s evening. The open floor plan of the living room and dining room creates an ideal space for entertaining. Ambient lighting, elegant wainscoting, and luxury vinyl plank flooring bring the space texture and character. Pass into the kitchen and pause to appreciate the gleam of the stunning tilework, quartz countertops, crown molding, and soft-close cabinets. Combined with the brand-new appliances, this is a kitchen that any chef (professional or aspiring) will appreciate. An added pantry and coffee area provides even more storage and convenience. Sip a cup of coffee in this calming kitchen, while listening to the morning sounds of the city awakening. A discrete half-bath stands just off of the kitchen to complete the first floor. Up the stairs are 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and laundry area. The vinyl plank flooring continues throughout the 2nd floor. The central laundry area has a solid wood countertop and tasteful cabinetry. The bathroom boasts a walk-in shower, quartz countertop, shiplap accent wall, and additional storage. Each bedroom is bright and welcoming, with spacious closets, beautiful woodwork, and loads of natural light. The primary bedroom is designed with both comfort and beauty in mind. Wainscoting, built-in cabinetry, large closets, and spa-like ensuite bathroom create an oasis for you to escape the cares of the day. The 3rd floor hosts a 3rd bedroom with hardwood floors, built-in shelving, and cozy alcove that overlooks Ruby Street. Use this quiet space as a bedroom, guest quarters, or home office. It is a retreat where you can read, work, or rest for hours uninterrupted. Every inch of this exquisite home has been upgraded and renovated, and every detail attended to with an eye for design and color. Once the indoors has amazed you, step out into the back yard, where you’ll find a new composite deck with outdoor wet bar. A fenced in yard leads to a detached, 2-car garage for off-street parking (yes, in the city!) and additional storage. This central Ruby Street home is a gem that you will want to make yours.
