229 East Chestnut Street Lancaster, PA
This one and one-half story house is a rare survivor. It is half of a double house built ca. 1830 to 1850. It is part of a row of two double houses of similar type.
The houses are of frame construction, with pedimented dormers. The dwellings appear on an 1850 map, and may date as early as the 1830s.
These diminutive homes face the Grubb Mansion located across the street, which is Lancaster’s finest example of a Classical Revival townhouse.
