Agent Description

Step into the character and charm of this remarkable historic Second Empire Victorian in the heart of Columbia.

Outside, the property offers both a pleasant front yard and a large backyard with abundant off-street parking - a rare and valuable feature for a historic in-town property.

The spacious outdoor areas provide endless possibilities for entertaining, gardening, studio use, or simply enjoying the setting. Located on a welcoming neighborhood street in historic Columbia, the home is surrounded by a growing community of independent shops, cafes, galleries, and thoughtfully restored historic properties, while remaining an accessible and affordable alternative to neighboring Lancaster communities.
