The Mary Sachs is a spectacular limestone mansion built in 1926 by a prominent Harrisburg businessman. This 8,000+ square foot estate sits above the flood plain along Harrisburg’s scenic river front. The property has been beautifully restored by the previous owners to preserve it’s character and charm while offering every modern amenity. There are numerous sitting areas with abundant natural light and the views…STUNNING! On the first floor you will find 4 bedrooms, all with en-suite baths. An ‘Owner’s Suite’ or in-law quarters boasts a bedroom, full bath, kitchen and living room. On the second floor are two additional bedrooms with en-suite full baths, a large kitchen with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, dining room with a skylight and a huge living room with a fireplace and separate entrance. Every space is filled with natural light streaming and views that will dazzle. The third floor is a blank slate! A bathroom is roughed in, four possible bedrooms and common space…this could be additional living/workspace, or a revenue generating rental opportunity. Garage or ‘carriage house’ is ready for your personal touches; storage or parking on the first floor, but the second floor is another potential revenue producing possibility. A large studio space with a bathroom already roughed in, gas, electric and water utilities already installed. The property is currently being run as a Bed and Breakfast, but the possibilities are endless! Fulfill your dream of being an Innkeeper! Or enjoy living in and entertaining friends at this historical gem on The Susquehanna yourself!
