From the Zillow listing:
Built in 1900 and filled with character, this truly unique 2-bedroom, 1-bath home is ready for someone with a vision to bring it back to life. Step inside and you’ll find original woodwork, impressive, paneled doors, an ornate staircase, built-ins, stained glass and architectural details that are hard to find in homes today. The unfinished upstairs offers a blank canvas with plenty of possibilities. Two separate staircases lead to the upper level, creating the potential to divide the space into two distinct areas and customize it to fit your needs. Years of neglect mean this home will require significant work, but beneath the overgrowth and wear is a property full of charm, history, and potential. If you appreciate old homes and aren’t afraid of a project, this could be an incredible opportunity to restore something truly special. Wood-burning stoves and hand-operated well pump are reserved by the seller.
