Property Description
At last, the Lancaster City property you have been waiting for — a rare marriage of ornate historic architecture, fine craftsmanship, flexible living, and investment potential in one of Lancaster's most dynamic mixed-use corridors.
Set along North Queen Street, this striking semi-detached residence immediately captures attention with its distinctive façade, brick archway, turret-style architectural detail, Tudor-inspired gable accents, and sandstone brick elements. Recently repainted and thoughtfully enhanced, the exterior blends historic presence with artistic charm. A truly unforgettable feature is the enchanting alley wall and gate — crafted with wood clapboard siding, cedar shake shingles, an ornate wooden door, and a whimsical hanging sculpture that evokes the feeling of stepping into a secret garden.
Inside, the home offers approximately 4052 square feet of above-grade living space, with additional lower-level and third-floor areas that expand the possibilities even further. A total of 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 2 half bathrooms, a basement, finished third-floor space, patios, porch areas, a gazebo, pocket doors, crown molding, wood wainscoting, custom hardware, custom interior trim, decorative fireplaces, and 2-zone HVAC.
Extensive renovations completed between 2020 and 2025 brought modern comfort and confidence to the home while preserving its architectural soul. Improvements include a remodeled kitchen, four new bathrooms, updated electrical, plumbing, heating, central air, an on-demand tankless water heater, approximately 80% replacement windows, and general renovations throughout. The kitchen is beautifully finished with fine custom cabinetry, beautiful upgraded countertops, and a layout that supports both everyday living and entertaining. The primary bath ensuite is especially impressive, featuring marble and tile finishes, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower that creates a refined retreat within the home.
The floor plan is exceptionally versatile. The first floor includes an office suite adjoining a sitting room, with its own exterior entrance — an ideal setup for a professional home occupation such as a CPA, attorney, consultant, or private studio. For buyers seeking a live-work property, this layout offers both presence and practicality.
The second floor adds another layer of flexibility, with a separate exterior stairwell and independent ingress/egress leading to a portion of the home that could function as a one- or two-bedroom apartment with its own kitchen. Whether used for extended family, guest quarters, rental income, or future conversion, the layout creates options that are rarely found in a Lancaster City residence of this character.
The third floor offers additional bonus space, bedroom potential, loft use, studio space, or future renovation opportunity. The lower level provides approximately 1,400+ square feet of basement area, adding storage, utility, and expansion flexibility.
Outdoors, the property continues to impress with hardscaping, herringbone-patterned patio areas, select stonework, a gazebo, covered porch spaces, and garden-style features that feel private, curated, and unexpected for the city setting. The property also adjoins a parking lot and currently leases one parking space.
Zoned MU Mixed Use, the property may offer additional potential for multi-unit conversion, professional use, or short-term rental use, subject to buyer due diligence and municipal approvals. Based on the current layout, the home may have the potential to be subdivided into multiple units, with a possible three- to four-unit configuration depending on zoning, code, permitting, and design feasibility.
