MARRANO OPENS NEW MODEL AND COMMUNITY IN LANCASTER

“Marrano is celebrating twice the excitement this month with the grand opening of a new, affordable community and a new model home in Lancaster,” began John Manns, vice president of sales and marketing for the builder. 
 
Creekside in the Pleasant Meadows community in Lancaster features 23 single-family home sites situated along gently curving streets with trees and ponds dotting the landscape. 
 
“Private, deep lots back to federally preserved land for homes with starting prices from the $220s to more than $280s,” noted Linda VanNortwick. “This community is already becoming one of our most popular in Lancaster.”
 
The decorated model at 27 Sterling Place illustrates a two-story design with approximately 2,300 square feet of living space. The country cottage façade features a combination of gables, coordinated siding schemes, custom trim, stone accents and a full front porch.
 
Inside, the two-story foyer showcases hardwood flooring. “The perfectly sized den is located at the front of the home for convenience and privacy,” VanNortwick added.  In the model, it is decorated as a formal dining room – demonstrating the versatility of the plan. (Below: third image)
