Property Description
As you pull up, you'll notice the substantial exterior investment already completed for the next owner — newer roof, beautiful grey Carolina siding, updated gutters, downspouts, exterior lighting, garage doors, and a refreshed front entry that gives the property a polished, timeless curb appeal.
What immediately separates this property from so many newer homes is the quality of craftsmanship and construction from this era. Homes built during this period were constructed with a level of solidity and permanence that is increasingly difficult to replicate today — more substantial framing, thicker materials, and a feeling of durability you notice the moment you walk through the door. There's a warmth and integrity to the home that simply feels different from much of today's lighter 2x4 exterior construction.
Step inside and the home opens with a comfortable, inviting flow that balances everyday functionality with spaces designed to truly live in. The kitchen and main living areas were extensively remodeled with attention to both aesthetics and wellness, including low-VOC finishes and thoughtful upgrades that create a clean, comfortable atmosphere throughout the home.
One of the standout features is the four-season sunroom — a space that feels like a retreat year-round. With natural light pouring in and views of the backyard, it becomes the perfect morning coffee room, reading lounge, or gathering space when entertaining family and friends.
The home continues to show pride of ownership throughout, with updated interior doors, refreshed trim and baseboards, fresh paint, plush newer carpeting, and beautifully remodeled bathrooms — including radiant heated flooring that adds a layer of comfort you rarely find at this price point.
Outside, the property truly opens up. Sitting on approximately a half-acre in the highly sought-after 17601 Manheim Township location, the setting offers both privacy and convenience. You're close to Lancaster's best shopping, dining, commuter routes, parks, and highly regarded schools, including nearby Nitrauer Elementary.
A particularly special feature of the property is the raised garden terrace with five custom cedar garden beds — a beautifully designed space for flowers, herbs, or farm-to-table gardening that enhances the home's connection to outdoor living and wellness.
The backyard also features a red brick patio ideal for outdoor dining, relaxing evenings, or entertaining guests in a peaceful setting.
Even the utility spaces have been thoughtfully updated. Just last month, the owners installed a brand-new stainless steel utility sink and faucet in the basement, continuing the theme of careful maintenance and meaningful investment throughout the property.
Mechanically, buyers can move forward with confidence knowing many major systems and improvements have already been addressed, including newer HVAC, radon mitigation, and numerous capital improvements totaling well over six figures in investment.
1842 Longview Road is not simply a house that has been updated — it's a home that has been carefully maintained, thoughtfully improved, and genuinely enjoyed. It offers the next owner the opportunity to step into a property where so much of the hard work has already been done, while still leaving room to personalize and make it their own
