211 E Chestnut St, Lancaster, PA 17602

Description

Welcome to 211 E Chestnut St—where timeless Lancaster City charm meets thoughtful modern living in an unbeatable location directly across from Musser Park. This classic 1890 row home is filled with character you simply can’t replicate, featuring high ceilings, abundant natural light, beautifully refinished original hardwood floors throughout the main level, and touches like exposed brick that add warmth and personality. The main level also offers the convenience of a dedicated laundry room combined with a powder room—an uncommon and highly functional feature for city living. Upstairs, you’ll find three true bedrooms across the upper levels, along with a versatile bonus space that offers the potential for a fourth bedroom, home office, or flex space to fit your needs. Step outside and enjoy one of the best settings in the city, with Musser Park just across the street and easy walkability to Lancaster’s top dining, coffee shops, and entertainment. The backyard is a true serene oasis, featuring a private deck (recently repainted), mature landscaping, and a full privacy fence—an ideal setting for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying quiet outdoor space in the heart of the city. The home has been carefully updated to blend historic appeal with modern comfort, including a tankless water heater (2021), updated crawl space insulation in the laundry area, a new back glass storm door, beautifully refinished first-floor hardwoods (2022), a new HVAC system (2023), and a full interior paint refresh in 2024.
