About this home
Designed for gracious living and unforgettable entertaining, welcome home to The James Rose House in School Lane Hills. Steeped in history and architectural distinction, it was featured in the 1891 publication Art Work of Lancaster and more recently highlighted in the prestigious C Emlen Urban Book. Set on an expansive one-acre lot, this magnificent all-brick manor offers over 5,000 square feet of elegant living with 7 bedrooms and 4.5 baths. Thoughtfully remodeled, the main home spans three beautifully finished levels and showcases 5 fireplaces, 2 staircases, soaring ceilings, coffered ceilings, graceful arches, built-ins, and extraordinary millwork. A warm and inviting formal entry hall features stunning wood floors, sweeping staircase, and dramatic stone fireplace with elegant sightlines to the sunroom, living room, music room, and formal dining room with new marble fireplace surround accented with hand-cast tiles. The spacious walk-in butler’s pantry leads to the freshly updated kitchen, with beautiful cabinetry, lighting, island, and a commercial-grade range. The second floor offers 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, including a serene primary suite with a sitting area, fireplace, convenient laundry room, and a newly renovated ensuite bath. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the third floor—perfect for guests, offices, or creative pursuits. A detached carriage house adds exceptional flexibility with 2 bedrooms and over 1,200 sq ft of additional living space, while the expansive grounds offer ample room for a future pool or tennis courts, completing the estate-like setting.
