About This Home
Welcome to one of the most historically significant homes in Ligonier, a nationally recognized residence known as the Isaac Straus Home located within the prestigious Ligonier Historic District. Originally built around 1900 and later reimagined in 1911, this home stands as a direct connection to Ligonier’s past, once owned by a member of one of the most prominent families in the city’s early development. Homes like this weren’t just built, they were designed to define an era. Spanning over 5,500 finished square feet, this residence offers 7 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 2 half baths, combining a rare level of space with architectural character that is nearly impossible to recreate today. From the moment you step inside, the craftsmanship immediately sets it apart. Original woodwork, detailed trim, stained glass accents, and expansive living spaces reflect the quality and intention of the early 1900s. The grand staircase, built in cabinetry, and intricate finishes throughout the home tell a story of a time when homes were constructed with permanence in mind. The layout offers a unique blend of scale and flexibility, with multiple living areas designed for both entertaining and everyday living. Each room carries its own character while still flowing seamlessly from one space to the next. Outside, the home continues to impress with its commanding presence along Main Street, complemented by outdoor living areas, an upper level porch, and additional structures that enhance both functionality and charm. Located just steps from downtown, this property places you in the heart of Ligonier while offering a level of history, character, and architectural detail that simply cannot be duplicated. This is more than a home, this is a property that has been part of Ligonier’s story for over a century and now it is ready to be part of yours. 1) Pre-Approval Letter/Proof Of Funds Required for All Showings 2) Additional Photos Available Upon Request
