230 North Charlotte Street Lancaster, PA
This Queen Anne-style house boasts one of the finest Victorian porches in Lancaster. The house was built ca. 1881 for newlyweds Attorney Edwin K. Martin and wife Caroline (Varick) Martin.
The house was built for this newly married couple by the groom’s father, the coal dealer / developer Barton B. Martin, who lived next door with the other Martins at the landmark house called West Lawn.
The house features an entry pediment with ornate scrollwork, a spindlework frieze on the porch, and an entry door with leaded glass.
