Handyman Special, Needs Total Rehab, Water Was Shut Off Last Winter When House Was Winterized And Now There Are Leaks If It's Turned Back On. Nice Original Features Remain - Mantles, Pine Floors, Tile - So This Could Be A Rewarding Rehab Job. Probably Could Not Get A Mortage As Is, Except For A 203K Loan For An Owner-Occupant.Handyman Special, Needs Total Rehab, Water Was Shut Off Last Winter When House Was Winterized And Now There Are Leaks If It's Turned Back On.
