OHU50K NOTES

Located on a corner lot, this c.1905 fixer upper boasts a lovely wrap-around porch, gorgeous staircase, beautiful built-ins, hardwood floors, and so much more. Sadly, many of the homes built around this time lost family members in World War II. In fact, Red Oak is noted for a disproportionate number of casualties in both WWII and the American Civil War.
