Built in 1927

At the entrance of one of the city's most sought after neighborhoods, Academy Manor, this captivating historic home offers an enchanting blend of timeless old world elegance and modern comfort. "Spanish Corners" was built in 1926 by world renowned engineer Farley Gannett as his family residence. This 'Old World Spanish' style home designed by Architects Lawrie and Green has been woven into the fabric of Harrisburg's historic tapestry... serving as the birthplace of the Harrisburg Community Theatre and Harrisburg Symphony. The Gannett's designed this home with entertaining in mind, and it was thoughtfully crafted of concrete and stucco, unique elements of cast stone, a Ludowici tile roof, bespoke ironwork, and custom Terra cotta Promenade Tile. The home has been meticulously preserved with respect to the architectural details of the style and period. This home boasts 12' barrel ceilings, walnut trim, original cypress windows and French doors throughout, making the home bright even on the dreariest of days. Upon entering you are greeted with an unencumbered view of the length of the home through the loggia which is flanked on the left by a grand living area with a large fireplace, and on the right by the music room with cast stone columns. Continuing through the loggia we encounter a handsome library with a barrel ceiling, fireplace, and built in bookshelves. Floor to ceiling arched French doors open on both sides of the loggia accessing delightful courtyards with bubbling fountains. Advancing further, the formal dining room with a stunning stained glass window (believed to be an original by Tiffany) and fireplace sets the stage for the dinner parties of your dreams. The adjacent kitchen features a comfortable breakfast nook and butler's pantry and has access to the service stairwell. The gracious main staircase ascends to the upper level, which features 6 bedrooms, all with contiguous wood floors, and 4 full baths. The primary bedroom suite boasts two fireplaces, a bay window, Juliette balcony, and a period tiled bath. A secondary bedroom suite touts an original 7 jet brass and gold shower, and soaking tub. The remaining 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths complete the upper level. The lower level with many daylight windows offers three large rooms originally used as a ballroom, a study, and a card room. There is also a half bath, a walk-in cedar closet, a laundry room, and abundant storage space. The detached 2 car garage accessed from Penn St. also has a bedroom and full bath above , perfect for an on-site caretaker or studio. This storied property is conveniently located just minutes to the Capitol Complex, Downtown, Riverfront Park, and highway. Come Fall in Love!
