7 Beds | 3 Baths | Salamanca, New York
A rare slice of American history, this circa 1880s Greek Revival mansion is packed with local lore, architectural character, and serious restoration potential ✨
Inside, the home spans three full stories filled with original detailing, tall ceilings, and classic proportions that reflect its historic past. According to local records, it once hosted Franklin D. Roosevelt and Eleanor Roosevelt, and was even the first house in Salamanca with a bathtub 🌿
The layout offers 7 bedrooms and 3 baths, with a recently improved third-floor efficiency apartment already giving a head start on restoration. Updated plumbing has also been completed, while much of the home still preserves its original structure and charm.
This is a full-scale renovation opportunity—ideal for a private historic residence, boutique B&B, or long-term preservation project 💫
A true “diamond in the rough” for anyone drawn to homes with history, scale, and storytelling built into the walls.
