What's around 527 North 2nd Street

About this property

Welcome home to North Second Street, where historic charm and modern updates come together in the heart of Columbia. Built in 1880 and renovated in 2024, this four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath end-of-row home pairs original character with updated kitchens and baths. A wrought-iron fence and a flowering rose bush frame the front, and a covered entry welcomes you in. The main level is bright and open, with original hardwood floors running from the front door to the kitchen. An arched opening connects the living and dining rooms, and windows on the front and sides bring in natural light. Classic radiator heat and ceiling fans keep the rooms comfortable through the seasons. The kitchen has maple Shaker cabinets, white quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and open shelving. Stainless appliances include a side-by-side refrigerator with water and ice, an electric range, and a dishwasher. The workstation sink, with its built-in cutting board, sits beneath two large windows that fill the room with natural light. Beyond the kitchen, the large mudroom houses the laundry with a live-edge wood shelf and a powder room tucked behind a pocket door. On the second floor, original transom windows sit above the doors. The primary bedroom is connected to a large bath with two vanities, a walk-in shower, and a pair of walk-in closets. The front bedroom is very sizeable and has three tall windows facing the street. The hall bath has been fully updated with a tub/shower and a wide vanity with plenty of drawer space. The third floor has two connected rooms with recessed lighting and dormer window nooks. They work well as a bedroom suite, a home office, or a guest space. Out back, a covered side entry with lantern lighting opens onto a railed concrete walkway that wraps around to a private rear patio along the back of the house, edged with bright marigolds and an attractive concrete paver retaining wall. It's a pleasant spot for morning coffee, grilling on a summer evening, or winding down at the end of the day. Beyond the patio, there is elevated rear yard and an off-street parking space. Downtown Columbia is a short trip from your door. On Saturdays, the Columbia Market House, one of the oldest operating market houses in the country, fills with vendors selling fresh produce, flowers, baked goods, and prepared meals. For dinner or drinks, Columbia Kettle Works on North 3rd Street brews its own beer and pours local wines and cocktails, often with live music. Griddles Malt Shoppe on Locust Street serves cheesesteaks and plenty of nostalgia, and Hinkle's Restaurant has served the town for generations. Columbia's antique and vintage shops make for a great afternoon of browsing, alongside coffee shops, boutiques, and the National Watch & Clock Museum. A short walk to the Turkey Hill Experience makes for a fun, hands-on afternoon of all things ice cream. Outdoor enthusiasts will love easy access to the Columbia Crossing trailhead which connects to 14 miles of riverfront trail along the Susquehanna. Very quick access to Route 30 makes about a 15 minute commute to Lancaster City, and cuts down on the time to get to York and Harrisburg as well.
