A true craftsman built in the style’s heyday, this beauty has its exquisite original chestnut trim in tact, unpainted and in grand shape. Updated where it counts and kept authentic where it adds to the charm. Spend Sundays on the wide porch watching the Amish horse and buggies clip clop past the tapered columns topped by a low gabled roof. (A hallmark of the Craftsman style). Enter through the reception area with gleaming hardwood floors and flow into the living room with wide windowsills, high baseboards and chestnut woods into the formal dining room with built-ins and finally into the beautifully remodeled kitchen. ( Reno by Pineberry Remodeling. Quality work!) The heart of the home, this kitchen has some old features ( built in cabinets, wrought iron oil lamp holder, quaint phone desk) and some brand new features ( granite counters, live edge wormy maple wood shelves, live edge coffee station and soft blue backsplash. ) There is a balcony off the rear of the home accessed through the master bedroom. 3 more bedrooms and full bath round out the upstairs along with a walk up attic for extra storage. Exit through the conveniently updated half bath into the charming backyard with a courtyard feel. Imagine string lights floating from the house to the adorable barn style garage and workshop. Step back in time and enjoy this walkable locale. The school, the post office, Lampeter Cafe & the annual Lampeter Fair all within your daily steps count. Convenient to Willow Street, Strasburg and 20 minutes to the Lancaster Amtrak station. 4 Bedrooms, 1.5 Bathrooms, Central Air.

Traditional Village Zoning District
The area around the Village of Lampeter, encompassed by part of the growth boundary, is designated for traditional village land use. It is typified by the presence of a village square, centered on the intersection of Village and Lampeter Roads, and surrounded by a variety of other uses. This area encourages a mix of compatible residential and nonresidential uses within the same block and adaptive reuse of historic structures is encouraged. These should all yield a revitalization of the Village area, characterized by an active, pedestrian friendly community with a variety of residential uses and densities, retail, professional and institutional uses, eateries, and recreational facilities.
