About 228 N Mary St
Welcome to 228 North Mary, in the heart of Lancaster's Chestnut Hill. This beautifully restored American Gothic semi-detached home has the very important modern conveniences of central air, instant hot water, oversized garage and solar panels. For the past 20 years the owners have painstakingly restored old forrest pine floors, walls, paneled ceilings and exterior brick. The home was repointed before any interior work began. From the spectacular first floor to the cozy third floor suite the home reflects quiet restraint to allow for a number of styles and tastes. The second floor is an entire primary suite with laundry, walk in closet, soaking tub and modern bath room. The large bedroom with accompanying sitting room completes the picture. One would be remiss not to mention the "perfect city garden". A combination of bountiful boxed raised vegetables watched over by a spectacular perennial flower bed starring poppies of enormous size bring a special feature to this space. A pergola provides outdoor space for dining reached by a curving path of carefully laid bricks. The double garage completes the back of the property and allows space for a car and a workshop. Experience the charm and comfort for yourself, schedule a private showing.
