If only the walls could talk, I wonder what they would say? Besides, "please buy me and fix me up", of course. I'm sure it was once a lovely home.

The house may have once be quite a nice home, but judging from the pillar on the front porch, it may now have some structural problems - in a addition to everything else. But then, she is 107 years old.

I'm amazed that this is another home that is over 100 years old. Research says it was built in 1909 and was victim of foreclosure in 2010.

However, it has a questionable history going back to 2001; which is as far back as I could trace things. It looks like someone bought it in 2001 for just $3000 & fixed it up enough to sell again in 2003 for $24,328. A year later (2004), it sold again for a mere $8000. That's a significant loss.

Six years later, that new private owner tried to sell this house once again for a shocking $1,500 but had no takers. 2012 was when it went into foreclosure. It finally sold at foreclosure auction in late 2012.

Obviously, it has been abandoned along the way. I wonder what stories about people this old house could tell. It's sure had a rocky history during the past 15 years. What's the overall neighborhood like?

Has a lot of character and at least a little space around it as well. It does look like it was a nice home once. ;)
