OHU50K Notes $40,000
With a rock wall, corner lot and carriage this Missouri fixer upper for sale draws us right in. When we step onto the wrap-around porch and open the front door, we are even more drawn in by the rich, dark woodwork, hardwood floors and tiled fireplaces. As we take more steps inside, our heart skips a beat as we are drawn to the stunning staircase withe built-in bench, pocket doors, leaded glass windows and vintage lighting fixture. Sure, the home needs work, but what a beauty it could be again. As Madonna sang, “I hear you call my name, and it feels like home.” ( Why does every old home remind me of a song?)
