From the Zillow listing:
Rare opportunity to secure and restore a Historic property. The HENRY CHAMPION HOUSE, designed by William Sprat a prominent early architect. Federal period architecture. This home is on the National Register of Historic Places since 1972. (see listing attachments for detail) Great potential- the home is situated in a commercial zone but used residentially. Opportunity awaits the entrepreneur with vision. Detached 3 car bar/garage. Level acre and a half plus lot with high visibility in Westchester Village offering proximity to major highways. This grand dame with a 3 gable windowed roof needs a new steward and will be sold “as is.” Inspections are for buyer information only and no repairs will be made by the sellers who enjoyed occupying the home.
Let them know you saw it on Old House Life!
