Behind this home’s handsome brick exterior, visitors will find a great deal of historic charm in the property’s light-filled spaces. Arched doorways, cove ceilings, and wood detailing grace the home’s interior, while a large bay window provides for plenty of natural light.
A certain quirkiness compliments this historic charm, and visitors might be amused to find intentionally-leaning kitchen cabinets, an in-built telephone nook, and small brick oven and bar in the basement. A cupola atop the house’s detached garage gives the building an almost farmhouse appearance.
The house’s location just blocks from Chandler Park - and its Family Aquatic Center and Golf Course - adds to its appeal. The I-94 expressway and shopping and dining options of Warren-Conner are also very close to the property. While in decent condition, the property will require a number of renovations and repairs, including repairs to bathroom and kitchen, among other. Prospective buyers should review the presale inspection report. Please also note that the purchaser will be responsible for the current year (2014); property taxes at the time of closing.
Please note that the rehab cost will often cost more than the winning bid price. Failure to bring a property up to code within 6 months will result in forfeiture of property (9 months for historic properties). Auction dates are subject to change. Check the site regularly to be aware of any schedule changes.
