This property was selling for $285,000 in October 2010.
I just don’t understand why this wonderful house is left to rot. The asking price of $285,000 is crazy. It will cost at least another $100,000 to bring it back to life. From my investigating I see it is owned by Fannie Mae. Why doesn’t Fannie Mae take the loss and let it go for back taxes in a lottery. At least some of us working class people might have a chance to restore this beauty to it’s original grandeur before it falls down.
I have loved this house from childhood.I drive by and look to see if anyone has moved in..I would love to make it into a home..its a shame its not being loved..what a wonderful home it would make for someone who loves its beauty…My grandkids would just love it s yard space…HOW SAD
This house was just bought by my family member 2-2011 who has all intentions of making this house more beautiful then ever before. It needs a ton of work so it will take some time but keep an eye out he’s on a roll to perfection I’m sure you will agree once completed. He will then move in his family of 5 who intends to reside there for years to come.
