Description

Welcome to 259 School Lane, a beautiful four bedroom, two and a half bath home in a highly sought-after area of Mount Joy, where you can walk to the train station, library, and the shops and restaurants of Main Street. This custom-built brick two story Colonial has been meticulously maintained by the original owners and offers great curb appeal, with brick walkways and mature landscaping. The first-floor flows from the foyer through the living room, dining room, and kitchen/family area, where you will find chair rail, crown molding, and custom cabinetry. A cast enamel gas stove on a brick hearth adds ambiance and extra heat in the cooler months. French doors lead to an inviting multi season sunroom, where you can view the oversized Azek deck, spa, and private yard bordered by hemlock trees. A large laundry/mud room, private office, and finished two car side entry garage complete the first floor. The foyer's central staircase leads to an open upper landing with a primary bedroom/bath, double vanity main bath, and three other bedrooms with custom closets. The 500 sq ft lower-level family room features rustic finishes and an island counter with plenty of storage, that was purposely designed with a growing family in mind. With its attention to detail, this home offers the warmth and charm that buyers are sure to find appealing. Don't miss your chance to tour this remarkable property.
