Gracefully spanning Salem's historic Mill Race, this restored 1901 Victorian is believed to be the only residential home built over the Mill Race. Rich in history and timeless craftsmanship, it features original fir floors, period millwork, updated major systems, and beautifully landscaped grounds with tranquil outdoor living spaces. Original horse carriage rings remain at the curb, offering a rare glimpse into the home's remarkable past, just moments from downtown Salem. Lovingly restored to preserve its architectural integrity, the home offers thoughtfully updated kitchen and bath spaces that complement its historic character without sacrificing modern comfort. Extensive improvements include updated electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, and other major systems. Enjoy a screened porch, courtyard terrace, and spacious deck overlooking the Mill Race, creating an exceptional connection to the surrounding landscape. The original carriage house and unfinished basement provide additional character, storage, and future possibilities. Located near the Oregon State Capitol, Willamette University, parks, restaurants, and shopping, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Salem's most historically significant and distinctive residences.
