Extraordinary Opportunity to own the Musser Herr House in Historic Strasburg Pa. Built circa 1875, this house has been referred to as a “mansion" and rightfully so! As you enter the front double original wood doors you'll be moved by the impressive preservation and care of this home's original features. The woodwork in the main house retains graining which was popular in the late 1800's, random size plank flooring, the windows retain the old “wave” glass, grand ceilings and chimney cupboards. The second floor also features high ceilings with 4 bedrooms and bath and a separate small private room that is accessed from the kitchen for an additional bedroom or bonus room. While this home conserves its original heritage it also offers the benefit of today's current conveniences. The kitchen leads to a first floor addition constructed in 2008 with a full bath that currently serves as a family room but also could be used as a first floor owners suite with a separate heating and air conditioning zone. On the side of the home you will find a screened porch that provides an added room to the home during the May to October season. When the trees are in bloom you will experience total privacy.
The property also includes several outbuildings, a large bank barn with a basement and fruit cellar, two stalls, a large area above the stalls with heavy random width flooring and an area where hay and straw were stored, a chicken house currently used as storage area and a 3 bay garage containing a second floor and work area. The rear property is a meadow surrounded by mature trees. Included on the acreage are many maple trees that are spectacular with Fall foliage and a variety of beautiful trees especially when in full bloom.
This property has heating and cooling that has been updated and it's in excellent condition! Conveniently located within walking distance to the Strasburg and Jaycee community park, the library, daycare, borough office, restaurants, gift and ice cream shops, food stores and much more! A very close drive to the Strasburg Railroad and Pennsylvania Railroad Museum.
