About this home
Single Family · Built 1901 · Historic
This home was built in 1901 and has been a rental for years. The floors slope in different directions. Inefficient wall fan heaters. Post and block foundation. Needs lots of work everywhere but is "kind of" liveable. Financing would be very difficult. "Why would anyone ever consider buying this home??" For starters, modern septic installed in 1999 and last pumped and inspected in 2022. Quality city water with very low rates. Decent electrical panel. Metal roof. Good size double garage. Great "rock free" soils with fertile garden space. Walking distance to grocery stores and bus stop. And the best part, Only $259,000. Plus as extra bonus, Owner contract terms offered if you've got at least $50,000 down payment. Maybe worth a look?
