This circa 1900 Folk Victorian house is a diamond in the rough with lots of possibilities. .. . it just needs your imagination and handyman/person. Perfect for the enthusiast who appreciates the charm of an older house who wants to restore her to her to her original beauty. If you’re looking to get away from the hustle & bustle of the city and relax working in the country on a historic project – this is the house for you! Just visualize a secluded quiet farmhouse situated on small hill with surrounding fields…this will surely bring a calming smile to your face. There are a lot of unique original features in this home - there are three chimneys which have 2 working fireplaces with additional hook-up access for wood burning stoves, built in bookshelves, a 2nd set of stairs off the kitchen leading up to bedroom #5, and a standup brick floored basement. There is also high ceilings and a couple of interesting unfinished rooms in the attic. There is a 2.8kw solar panel system to help reduce electric bills (which is paid for - not leased), a small 6' x 8' greenhouse, and a fiber optic junction box on Middletown Branch Road directly across from this property’s driveway. In closing…. one last visual…. . On a clear night, the huge sky is filled with twinkling stars and planets which are not so spaciously viewable in many places. FYI…. this property is not ideal or a candidate for government financing so cash or conventional financing is needed.
