627 State Street Lancaster, PA

Newlyweds Elizabeth Miller Engle and Norman B. McCulloch purchased this house as their first home in 1928. Mr. McCulloch was an insurance agent from Pittsburgh. Mrs. McCulloch was from Lancaster.
The house had been built that same year by Henry G. Maurer, building contractor. He built many homes throughout Lancaster City and School Lane Hills. He was a lifelong resident of Lancaster City, and was actively involved with the Carpenters’ Union and with St. Andrews U.C.C. Church.
The house has a hipped-roof entry and dormer, and Flemish-bond brickwork in a Colonial Revival style. A magnolia flowers here each springtime.
