William Murray House, Colonial residence in Salem, US

The William Murray House consists of a two-story wood-frame structure with two distinct sections featuring three window bays on each side.

Built around 1688, the western section of the house underwent modifications in the early 18th century when its overhanging second floor was replaced with a flush wall.

The residence contains preserved First Period architectural elements and turned woodwork from the Second Period, documenting the evolution of New England building techniques.

Located at 39 Essex Street in Salem, Massachusetts, the William Murray House provides visitors with insights into colonial-era residential architecture.

From 1759 until the mid-19th century, the two sections of the house maintained separate ownership, resulting in the construction of individual staircases.
