Why this home stands out
Built in 2018, 5247 Lombard Street skips the maintenance surprises that come with older stock — the systems, finishes, and structural bones are all relatively young. At 1,870 square feet across three bedrooms and two and a half baths, the layout gives everyone room to spread out without the upkeep burden of a sprawling footprint. The half-bath placement keeps daily traffic sensible, and the overall design reflects the practical, livable floor plans that define newer construction in this part of Chesapeake.
