COME SAVE ME! CASH SALE ONLY, home is not financeable in its current state. Here is your chance to own a piece of history. Lots of charm here. Sitting on 3 acres on a beautiful lot with Walnut trees and Lilacs, this awaits your new home or the opportunity to take this home back to greatness. This Octagon home has a lot of history dating back to the 1870's when William Anderson built it. Octagon homes were believed to promote health by means of superior cross ventilation. Restoring it could be a big job, but the home's remarkable style and storied history are surely worth the effort.
