About 142 Howard Ave
Discover the ease of single-floor living in this beautifully renovated downtown home. The main level offers everything you need day-to-day: a bright, open living area, an updated kitchen, a full bath, and a convenient bedroom with laundry just steps away - no stairs required for daily life. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a half bath offer flexible space for visiting family, hobbies, or a home office. Location is a real highlight here: you're just a third of a mile from Southern Market, the Marriott, and the future site of Willow Valley's Mosaic tower, with the heart of downtown dining, shopping, and arts all within easy walking distance - perfect for enjoying an active lifestyle without needing a car for every errand. Outside, a privacy-fenced backyard provides a peaceful, low-upkeep retreat, and the home's historic facade adds timeless charm. Give yourself peace of mind with all-new mechanicals (electrical, plumbing, and HVAC), a new roof, and new windows throughout - so you can move in and truly relax. Don't miss this opportunity for comfortable, low-maintenance living in the heart of downtown Lancaster.
