Rare opportunity to own a truly special home situated directly along the Conestoga River. Enjoy peaceful mornings, breathtaking sunsets, and unmatched Lancaster County views from two expansive levels of deck space — perfect for entertaining or relaxing by the water. Across the river, take in picturesque scenery of an Amish farm and a historic 1800s mill downstream. Lovingly owned and enjoyed by the same family since 1967, this home offers space, flexibility, and character throughout. The first floor features an open-concept living room, kitchen, and dining area ideal for gatherings. A second kitchen area, half bath, and private office (which could easily serve as a 5th bedroom) add versatility for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs, you’ll find four well-sized bedrooms with generous closet space and a full bathroom. A walk-up attic provides additional storage or future expansion potential. The lower level includes an additional family room, separate laundry area, and a full bathroom with a walk-in shower. Beneath that, an additional storage level offers excellent space for kayaks, lawn equipment, and river gear. Home has oil heat forced air, but owner primarily heats with wood thats flows directly into Hvac sytem. The property also features separate upper access with an additional driveway and parking area — a rare convenience for riverfront living.
