About the Listing o307A - 161,38728

Welcome to the ''Gilded Age'' Townhouse of your dreams. Distinguished by the 2025 Preservation Initiative Award, this beautifully restored 1862 Victorian home balances elegant historic craftsmanship with thoughtful modern updates that make it a truly unique treasure. Its 4-bay wide footprint, as opposed to the typical 3-bay rowhouse, gives it a scale and livability that sets it apart from its peers. With five original marble mantles, ornate plasterwork, functional wood-burning stove, pocket doors, and countless preserved period details this house showcases the architectural refinement of a bygone era. The European-inspired kitchen is both elegant and functional, while the rebuilt 2025 front stoop restores the townhouse's classic curb appeal. The garden level complete with kitchen, bathroom, private entrance, and additional laundry offers exceptional flexibility as a guest suite, or artist's studio. The large private green space, complete with patio, perennial garden, and privacy fencing, creates a peaceful outdoor retreat rarely found in Center Square. The attic provides abundant storage, completing this exceptionally functional historic home. If you've been waiting for a Center Square home that blends historic charm with modern comfort, 209 Lancaster is a rare opportunity.
