Description

Welcome to 153 E Ross Street — a beautifully updated Lancaster City home that perfectly combines classic charm with modern comfort! Step inside to find a bright and open living area with fresh updates throughout. The stylish kitchen features sleek black quartz countertops, updated cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Upstairs, you’ll find comfortable bedrooms filled with natural light, and a modern bathroom complete with an LED light fixture featuring Bluetooth connection and nightlight settings. The spacious, semi-finished basement offers versatile space currently used for laundry, a tiki bar, and storage. Outdoor living is a delight with a private patio and fenced backyard—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Enjoy city life by being just a short walk to Lancaster’s best attractions—Central Market, local breweries and restaurants, the F&M campus, and the train station. Practical updates and thoughtful care make this home truly move-in ready. Fully renovated in 2016, the home has since received numerous improvements, including all new kitchen appliances, a new furnace, ⅔ new roof, updated bathroom flooring and vanity, new wall-to-wall carpet on the second floor, new washer and dryer, and new ceiling fans and light fixtures. The third floor benefits from both central A/C and a “permanently” installed window unit that conveys with the home. Nearly all plumbing has been upgraded to PVC for peace of mind. This beautifully maintained home offers comfort, character, and unbeatable convenience in the heart of Lancaster City.
