Historic Elegance Meets Modern Excellence – M.D. Herington’s 1881 Revived Home
Renovations finishing mid-July!
Step into a rare piece of Kansas history—this beautifully restored 1881 residence, originally built by M.D. Herington, founder of Herington, KS. Impeccably updated from the foundation up, this historic home combines timeless character with state-of-the-art renovations, creating a truly unique and turnkey opportunity.
The home retains its original handcrafted banister and the historic bell tower, while undergoing a full-scale modernization inside and out.
Every room in the house has been remodeled to meet modern standards, including:
All-new plumbing and electrical systems with tankless hot water heater.
Upgraded insulation throughout the entire first floor for energy efficiency
Original framing has been inspected, repaired, and bolstered to prepare this home for the next 150 years of life.
Renovations performed exclusively by licensed local contractors
Inside, the home boasts LED lighting throughout, a wheelchair-friendly first floor, and refinished hardwood flooring upstairs. The expansive downstairs master suite includes its own private exterior entrance, a spacious walk-in closet, and a luxurious master bath complete with jacuzzi tub.
Enjoy a roomy attached two-car garage, nearly half an acre of land, and a prime Main Street location—blending historic appeal with unbeatable convenience.
Included in the sale is the adjacent parcel featuring a nearly 1,300 sq ft shop, perfect for use as a workshop, rental property, or future separate resale.
