Brick Second Empire Fixer Upper in Grayville IL Under $20K – Sold

Here is a brick second empire fixer upper in Grayville, Illinois (pop. 1,666). The city was founded by the Gray family and became well-known for its oil, but in the 1950s the population began to drop. Many architectural gems built by prominent citizens still stand in Grayville, however, most notably the William W. Gray House, a Queen Anne designed by George F. Barber and built in 1865, just two blocks away from our featured home (see below).

Flat roofs have a tendency to leak if not well-maintained, so I am assuming the weird structure built on top was to prevent that.
