Welcome to 2249 Bob White Lane, a timeless masterpiece steeped in history and elegance. Originally commissioned in 1799 by the esteemed German farmer John Pfeiffer and his wife Maria, this distinguished Georgian Brick home, affectionately known as "The Pfeiffer House" or "Springside Manor," graces nearly half an acre of meticulously landscaped grounds in the coveted Bel Air North development of Manheim Township.
Featured prominently in Lancaster County Architecture, this architectural gem is believed to have been constructed by the renowned builder Gottlieb Sehner, known for his impeccable craftsmanship seen in details such as the pedimented front entrance and distinctive brick water table. The home shares striking similarities with Sehner's other notable works, including the Sehner Ellicott-von Hess House in Lancaster City.
Following an extensive two-year renovation and restoration, this residence blends historical charm with modern amenities, ensuring its grandeur endures for another 225 years. The property boasts not only the main house but also a Summer Kitchen, an oversized 2 ½ car detached Carriage House style garage with a versatile upstairs loft, and a lovingly restored original "out house" converted to additional storage.
A true sanctuary for discerning buyers and lovers of historical homes, this estate showcases unparalleled craftsmanship with its Georgian "Four over Four" layout, 9-foot ceilings, and a wealth of period details. Inside, discover the artistry of original woodwork, corner cabinets, and beautifully refinished heart pine and chestnut floors throughout. Five fireplaces add warmth and character, while the attic retains one of the original smokehouses, a testament to its rich heritage.
