OHU50K NOTES

Overview

What a beauty! This handyman special is located in the small town of Wheeling, Missouri (pop.271), next to the c.1888 First Baptist Church and opposite the city park.

I was unable to find any history of the house, but perhaps the two front doors indicate one side was an office. Maybe it served as the rectory for the church next door at some point. In any event, the home must have been originally owned by a prominent member of the small community.

Details

The c.1914 Classical Revival has so many original features which the realtor describes below. You can tell the house has been well maintained, but it does need a touch of TLC. I think the low price has more to do with the small town location than with the condition of the home.
