Multi Family · Built 1938 · Historic
Investment opportunity awaits with this unique Howard Moffitt duplex 'Baby Alamo'; constructed in 1938 and as legend would have it, inspirational to his move down south to Citrus City, Texas in 1943. With no formal training in construction or architecture, Moffitt began building homes as a side business from his auto parts distributorship. Moffitt's house designs were concocted from popular magazine photos, consultation with close friends, limitations of available building supplies and most importantly, whimsy and charm. Each side offers 2 small bedrooms, 1 bath and unfinished walkout basements. They command $1,100 per month rent and the tenants pay the utilities. Property conveyed in 'AS-IS' condition. Please park on Center Ave. for Showings.
