Overview

Step into a piece of Lancaster history. The Old Champion Home at 325 E Chestnut St was built between 1834 & 1839 by Michael Garaghty, the craftsman behind the Mumaugh Memorial, and nearly two centuries later it remains one of downtown's most distinctive addresses. Set on a rare 0.43-acre double lot, this 4 bed, 2.5 bath home offers 2,752 sq ft of warmth, character & craftsmanship you simply cannot replicate. Five fireplaces anchor the home with timeless ambiance, while 1.5'' thick poplar floors, a sandstone foundation & 10x10 timber framing tell the story of how homes were built to last. Gather in the cozy living room, where a high-efficiency wood-burning stove serves as the heart of the home. Perfectly positioned in front of a stunning bay window, this spot offers panoramic views of downtown Lancaster while you enjoy the warmth of a crackling fire. Modern living blends seamlessly with historic charm. The first-floor owner's suite features an updated full bath & the large eat-in kitchen, refreshed in 2019 with an expanded center island, is built for slow Sunday mornings & dinner parties that stretch late into the evening. First-floor laundry adds everyday ease & the finished attic offers a flexible additional bedroom or quiet retreat. Outdoor living is just as inviting. Sip your morning coffee on the screened porch, host friends in the brick courtyard. A detached 2-car garage & patio awning complete the package. Beyond the front door, you are steps from downtown Lancaster's shops, restaurants, galleries & historic landmarks, with sidewalks, mature trees & that unmistakable small-town-meets-storied-city feel. Major updates include a new dimensional roof (2018), gas furnace (2019), waste & drain lines replaced with CPVC to city lines (2022) & full potable water supply replaced with PEX (2024). Enjoy the charm of an 1835 home with modern reliability.
