??? SERIOUS PROJECT — HISTORIC 1869 HOME + 3 CITY LOTS — $30,000 PLEASE READ BEFORE INQUIRING: This home is NOT move-in ready. It has been heavily vandalized and neglected and will require significant cleanup, repair, renovation, and investment. This is a property for someone with vision, experience, resources, and determination. It may be the perfect opportunity for an ambitious renovator, contractor, investor, historic-home enthusiast, or someone looking for a major project. If that sounds like you, keep reading. ?? ?? THE OPPORTUNITY The property includes a historic home built in 1869 sitting on THREE CITY LOTS in a beautiful, established neighborhood right next to the library. The three lots have been locally valued at approximately $10,000 each — $30,000 total. The house itself is essentially being offered at no additional cost. The home has been inspected by the city inspector, who evaluated the structure. We were told the home is structurally sound and, based on that inspection, does not currently meet the criteria for condemnation. There is also no known mold issue identified during the inspection. The city has also completed an appraisal of the property, although we are still waiting to receive the official paperwork. ?? HERE’S THE HARD TRUTH There is a LOT of work to do. • No running water currently • City curb stop has been installed • Possible plumbing leak that will need investigation • Appliances have been removed • Significant garbage and debris left throughout the property • Basement requires substantial cleanup • Multiple damaged windows, including two broken windows • Extensive restoration and renovation needed throughout This is not a cosmetic fixer. This is a true project. But underneath the damage is a beautiful piece of local history. ? ORIGINAL HISTORIC FEATURES The 1869 home still has: • Original crown molding • Original iron registers • Original leaded-glass windows • Beautiful stained-glass window • Hardwood floors throughout • 14-foot ceilings on the main floor • 12-foot ceilings on the second floor • Large mudroom • 3 bedrooms • 2 bathrooms • Full basement with boiler The previous owner lived in the home for approximately 10 years before moving out of state. The home was later occupied by family members, and unfortunately, when they left, the property was vandalized and left in its current condition. We know this property isn’t for everyone. And that’s okay. We’re looking for the person who walks in and sees what this house COULD be. Or someone who sees the value in the three lots and the location and wants to create something completely new. ?? Beautiful established neighborhood. ?? Mature trees. ?? Right next to the library. ?? Three city lots. ??? Historic 1869 structure. ?? $30,000 for all three lots AND the house. The house is free with the purchase of the three lots. This is an absolute challenge, but it could be an incredible opportunity for the right person. If you’re a contractor, investor, experienced renovator, historic-home enthusiast, or simply someone with a BIG vision, send us a message. Serious inquiries only. Please understand the condition of the property before contacting us.
