Circa 1869 Illinois Fixer Upper With Lovely Original Elements $45K

OHU50K Notes $45,000

You may not think it by the exterior of this fixer upper that it would have so many stunning original details, but mixed in with dropped ceilings and fake brick are such elements as stained glass, natural woodwork, ornate hardware and tiled fireplace. The three bedroom, one bath diamond in the rough sits on a third of an acre corner lot in a small town (pop. 693) on the banks of the Sangamon River in central Illinois.

Realtor Comments

This home has so much potential and is just waiting for a new owner to bring out all of its best features! The detail on the woodwork, stained glass, and original hardware has so much charm. The dining room has a tiled fireplace. This house needs some work, though most windows have been updated to vinyl. This would make a great investment property. Large corner double lot, 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, with 1 bed and bath on the main floor. 2 bonus rooms, 1 on each level, that would make great offices, dens, play areas, craft rooms, etc. Enclosed porch and wood deck. This home is being sold as is. Metal shed, circle drive. Come check out all of the possibilities that await you with this small town charmer.
