Description

AUCTION with Pre-Auction Offers: Welcome to a rare opportunity in the heart of historic Strasburg, Pennsylvania. Known by many as the Wiker home, this one-owner residence at 108 West Hillcrest Avenue has been a landmark of care, tradition, and timeless design since it was built in 1956 by Harold and Beverly Wiker. Inspired by the charm of Colonial Williamsburg, this home is rich with handcrafted detail—wide plank floors, custom cabinetry, paneled walls, and multiple fireplaces that create warmth and character throughout. Outside, you’ll discover beautiful gardens, stone paths, and a peaceful backyard that opens to preserved Lancaster County farmland—ensuring lasting views, open space, and serenity for generations to come. Inside, enjoy a gourmet colonial-style kitchen, a cozy den with a stone hearth, and a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet and a luxurious bath featuring a walk-in tiled shower and soaking tub. Come experience the quality, care, and heritage of this extraordinary home—an opportunity that truly doesn’t come around often. This property is scheduled to be sold at public auction on Saturday, May 3. But don’t wait—the family is also accepting pre-auction offers, and the home may sell prior to auction day. This exceptional home is a true homage to Colonial Williamsburg, carefully designed by its owners to capture the grace and craftsmanship of early American architecture. Combining period authenticity with modern comfort, this property offers an unparalleled living experience in one of Pennsylvania’s most historic towns. Because of the uniqueness, desirability, and the special qualities of this home the seller has decided to offer the property for sale using the auction method. The Seller is accepting Pre-Auction offers. If an offer is accepted prior to the auction date, the auction will be cancelled. The MLS listing price is often the suggested opening bid for the auction and may not reflect the reserve price. We expect the property to sell for a higher amount than the MLS list price
