Set on over two acres in the quiet setting of Farview Farm Estate, this custom-built home offers a level of space, craftsmanship, and privacy that’s hard to come by in Lancaster County. From the moment you walk in, the scale and detail stand out. The two-story great room anchors the home with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, custom built-ins, and natural light pouring in through oversized windows. It’s open, inviting, and designed to feel just as comfortable on a quiet evening as it does while entertaining a home full of guests. The kitchen was designed for someone who truly enjoys cooking and gathering. With an expansive island, copper sink, walk-in pantry, and clean, high-end finishes throughout, it flows seamlessly into both a relaxed sitting area and a more formal dining space. The dining room is framed by coffered ceilings, detailed millwork, and a wet bar with wine storage, creating an ideal setup for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The owner’s suite is privately tucked away and includes its own fireplace, tray ceiling, direct access to the rear patio, a spacious walk-in closet, and an en-suite with radiant heated floors, a large glass-enclosed shower, and a clawfoot tub. A second suite on the opposite side of the home offers flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Just inside from the three-car garage, a thoughtfully designed mudroom includes a dedicated pet washing station or additional clean-up space. Upstairs, you’ll find three more bedrooms with a mix of private and shared bath layouts. A bonus room provides even more flexibility, whether it’s used as a second office, gym, or media space. From the upstairs sitting area, French doors lead out to a balcony overlooking the property, a quiet spot to start or end the day. The lower level adds over 2,000 square feet of finished space designed with entertaining in mind, complete with a custom bar, media area, full bath, and a large custom-designed wine storage area that adds both character and function. Out back, the setting opens up even further. A newer heated saltwater pool creates a true backyard retreat, with a shallow lounging area ideal for relaxing or sunbathing, along with a deeper section designed for swimming and even pool volleyball. The surrounding patio offers both covered and open-air spaces, a fireplace, and built-in seating, creating a natural extension of the home for hosting or unwinding. Mature landscaping and a partially wooded backdrop enhance the sense of privacy, with frequent visits from local wildlife. Built by RL Hershey Custom Homes, the property carries quality throughout, from the hardwood flooring and natural stone finishes to the integrated smart home system managing lighting, audio, climate, and more. Even the roof reflects the level of craftsmanship, featuring hand-hammered individual shingles designed with a 50-year lifespan. All of this, just minutes from downtown Lancaster, Millersville Univers
