Property Description
Welcome to 12 Wright Avenue, a well-loved and beautifully maintained piece of York's history. Built in the late 1800s–early 1900s and proudly featured multiple times on the Christmas Home Tour, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch offers the perfect blend of timeless character and thoughtful updates.
Set on a large, flat lot along one of downtown York's most sought-after streets, this home greets you with English garden landscaping and a partial wraparound porch—the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening conversation. The backyard is a private retreat, where a paver patio invites you to relax in the shade of mature trees and landscaped borders and a stone path leads to a lush green lawn.
Inside, the home was tastefully remodeled in 2003 to preserve its historic charm while offering modern conveniences. You'll find tall ceilings, wide hallways, bead board accents, French glass doors, and custom built-ins throughout. Hardwood floors add warmth, while tile in the kitchen, laundry, and bathrooms bring practicality.
The spacious primary suite is a true escape, featuring a sitting area framed by a wall of windows, a walk-in closet, and an ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, a tiled shower, and a clawfoot tub. A second bedroom and full bathroom with walk-in shower sit nearby, while the third bedroom—currently used as an office—boasts a bay window and cozy gas fireplace.
The home also offers a large dining room with fireplace and built-ins, a laundry room with abundant storage, and a kitchen designed for both function and charm, complete with butcher block countertops, gas slide-in range with down draft vent, warming drawer, and island seating.
Practical updates ensure peace of mind, too—the roof was replaced in 2024 and HVAC system was replaced in 2025. Every detail of this home has been carefully preserved or updated to honor its history while creating a warm, welcoming space for modern living. Part of the Historic Overlay District.
