Key Insights
If you’ve been waiting for the right opportunity to simplify your lifestyle without sacrificing comfort, this is it. Nestled in the highly desirable Sawgrass section of Crossgates in Millersville, this semi-detached home offers the rare combination of first-floor living, premium upgrades, and breathtaking golf course views. Even better—it’s move-in ready and better than new construction, meaning the work has already been done for you.
Why This Home Stands Out (And Why Buyers Are Taking Notice)
In today’s market—especially here in Lancaster County—buyers are becoming more intentional. They’re not just looking for a home… they’re looking for a lifestyle. And if you’ve been following my recent market updates (be sure to check out my latest Lancaster County Market Statistics blogs), you’ll know that homes offering low-maintenance living and thoughtful design are in high demand—particularly among downsizers and 50+ buyers.
This home checks every box—and then goes further.
With 1,532 square feet, a two-car garage, and a layout designed for ease, you’ll find everything you need right on the main level:
- A spacious primary suite with a beautifully finished tile shower
- An additional bedroom and full bath for guests or a home office
- An open-concept great room with a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and crown molding
- A designer kitchen featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a statement range hood
Upstairs, you’ll find flexible space for a potential third bedroom along with unfinished storage—perfect for future customization or simply staying organized.
Better Than New Construction—Here’s Why That Matters
Let’s talk strategy for a moment.
Many buyers initially consider new construction—but what they often don’t realize is how quickly costs add up with upgrades, landscaping, window treatments, and finishing touches. This home eliminates that uncertainty.
Here, it’s already done:
- Professionally designed landscaping with a privacy wall
- Blinds installed throughout
- Upgraded lighting fixtures
- Built-in bench seating around the fireplace
- Thoughtful design elements that make the home feel complete from day one
This is what I call a “smart buy” in today’s market—you’re stepping into value that’s already been created.
The Lifestyle You’ve Been Waiting For
Step outside and it all comes together.
Your private patio overlooks the 9th fairway of the Crossgates Golf Course, complete with tranquil pond views. It’s peaceful, scenic, and exactly the kind of setting buyers are searching for right now.
And beyond your backyard?
The Crossgates Community offers:
- Walking paths for daily strolls
- Tennis courts and a ball field
- Easy access to dining, including the popular local spot The Bunker Restaurant
- Close proximity to downtown Lancaster for shopping, culture, and healthcare
This is low-maintenance living at its finest, with an HOA that takes care of snow removal and lawn mowing—so you can spend more time enjoying life, not maintaining it.
