Ask around Chestnut Hill, and you'll hear it before you see it: this block is one of Lancaster City's best-kept secrets. Inside this home is a sun-filled, open-concept first floor unfolds in rich hardwood underfoot. A half bath was thoughtfully added downstairs, alongside an elegant mudroom — as functional as it is refined. The second floor features a bedroom with its own private balcony, a quiet perch above the city. The primary suite has been reimagined with a former bedroom converted into a spacious en-suite bath and dedicated laundry area, alongside abundant closet space. The third floor presents two additional bedrooms, ideal for guests or a refined home office. This home was extensively updated in 2022, offering true peace of mind: all-new windows, a new HVAC system, a new water heater, and updated electrical with 200-amp service — a rare, comprehensive package that's hard to find in the city. Outside, the private, beautifully landscaped backyard offers a rare urban sanctuary. This is a home to be experienced. View this listing at: http://carynsaunders.homesale.com/mls=PALA2091498
