Property Description

This property will be offered at Public Auction on Wednesday, May 20, 2026 @ 6pm. The listing price is the opening bid only and in no way reflects the final sale price. 10% down due at auction, 2% transfer tax to be paid by the purchaser, real estate taxes prorated. Rarely does a property of this architectural pedigree come to auction. The Carriage House at Roslyn, built circa 1896 and designed by renowned Lancaster architect C. Emlen Urban in the same Château Esque style as the adjoining mansion, showcases a distinctive bell-shaped roof, arched carriage doors, and detailed battlements with Romanesque influences. Commissioned by Peter T. Watt, co-founder of the iconic Watt & Shand department store, the estate reflects the height of Lancaster's historic architectural legacy and Urban's celebrated craftsmanship. Offering approximately 4,000 square feet, the structure presents a remarkable opportunity for restoration and adaptive reimagining, with the main building already stabilized and reinforced, ready for completion and modernization. This nationally and locally significant property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated as a Level I Historic Site, the highest classification in Lancaster County. Positioned on a 1.2-acre parcel at 321 N. President Avenue, it also overlooks President James Buchanan's Wheatland residence across the street. An extraordinary opportunity to own and reimagine one of Lancaster's most architecturally important historic structures.
