A piece of history is on the market for the second time since it was built in 1890 by the Paine family. Last sold in 1973, this HISTORIC CENTER HALL boasts well preserved original hardwood flooring and most of its original layout, with pocket doors between galleries, 14' ceilings, a broad front porch, and views from the large dormer window of downtown, the river, the famous Doullut houses, and the West Bank.
Featured in architectural reference books for it's classic design and home to history, this house is ready for a new owner tp continue its legacy in Historic Holy Cross. There is room to add an additional bathroom and/or bedroom on the second floor and the kitchen has a wonderful layout and space for modern appliances and amenities. 503 Flood Street has a large fenced corner yard with both a front and back porch, space for parking and once included a large garden. This is a renovation opportunity for someone who loves history and understands the quality of historic homes in our beautiful city.
The roof and gutters are new (Summer/Fall 2025) and the foundation has been inspected and maintenance completed (March 2025). There is no central HVAC system - has never had one. Bring your contractor and your vision.
