Cheap-ish Circa 1912 New York Colonial Revival Home For Sale Under $120K – Stunning! – Sold

UPDATE:

“This house is known as the Alton Simmons House. The 2.5 story, gambrel roof home located in the Warehouse District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004, along with 26 other Ward Wellington Ward houses in the Syracuse area.

Ward Wellington was an architect who worked and lived in Syracuse and designed more than 250 homes during his career. Twenty-six of them are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

This home for sale for $119,900 exceeds my expectations tenfold at this price point!  I am in awe of the rich woodwork. Not only that, but kudos to the generations of owners who kept the kitchen and bath in keeping with the era of the house.
