Located on the western end of the town, Selma Mansion is one of the oldest historic structures in Norristown, Pennsylvania. The mansion was built in 1794 for General Andrew Porter around an already existing structure General Porter purchased from Alexander McCammon in 1786. The mansion was built in the Federal style, although the proportions and interior woodwork are Georgian and Colonial. The porches, which have been added in the mid-19th century, are built in Italianate style. A Pennsylvania state historical marker is placed on the building. The mansion offers "haunted" tours of the mansion that "investigate its paranormal properties" which have been reported by previous visitors. Visit by appointment and on Special Open House Events.
