Brick Italianate in Swansea, IL Under $58K
OHU50K NOTES
This is the kind of project that inspired me to create OHU50K five years ago. Look at all the exterior detail. It is amazing most of it is still intact. The interior has had some unfortunate “improvements,” namely that 1990s tile, but the mantels, grand staircase, transoms, hardwood floors, clawfoot tub and ornate cast iron radiators are awaiting restoration.
The brick Italianate is located on a corner lot with two detached garages in a low-crime neighborhood.
