Discover the iconic Strawberry Mansion, a Queen Anne gem built c.1920 by architect Thomas Gerity. This
7,807 sq. ft., 5-bed, 2.5-bath historic home, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, awaits
restoration to its former glory!! Its red brick facade, cross-gabled massing, and high gable roofs exude
Victorian grandeur. Inside, 12-ft etched ceilings, classic wood moldings, 10-ft pocket doors, and original
fireplaces evoke a bygone era, while a bracketed entrance porch and semi-octagonal front bay add
architectural allure. Once home to magnate William S. Gerity and later an adult care facility, this fixer-upper offers endless potential for a gorgeous single family residence, multi-family, commercial, or AirBnB/
VRBO use in Elmira’s vibrant historic district. Large windows and spacious rooms invite light and warmth,
blending majesty with opportunity. Sold as-is, this is a rare chance to revive a piece of Elmira’s heritage,
where history and vision converge. Don’t miss owning this storied mansion, ready to shine anew.
NOTE: heating system is not operational due a few radiators having been removed. Property is being SOLD AS - IS.
