Built for local banker Frank Morse in 1885, this house has all the hallmarks of the grand Italianate style. The interior of the home offers loads of old house charm including a winding walnut staircase, 3 fireplaces, ornate trim and more. The exterior retains its original bracketed cornice, open front porch and sturdy brick construction. The house needs major restoration to bring back its luster but the result will be a one-of-a-kind property.
