Oh, this poor Italianate! The circa 1880 fixer upper looks like it has been the dumping ground for the whole street for years. Warning: Don’t look further if you have a weak stomach. I had to delete a few images, because they were just too disgusting.
I had to ask myself, would I tackle this? This from a woman who put an offer on an old Masonic Lodge in upstate New York that was filled with pigeon poop from top to bottom. I put another offer on a Victorian in Argyle, New York, that had an attic loaded with bats and a foot of bat guano. I was young then. While I love the Italianate’s brackets and dentil work, its staircase and bullseye molding, I don’t think I could deal with the filth. Could you?

I have a difficult time dealing with squalor and chaos…

I read the warning, popped a few dozen tranqs, braced myself…and I’m still traumatized for life. A bust of Elvis and a poster of Justin Bieber amidst the shmutz and decay only added to the trash-dump “charm” of this house-of-horrors.
