The little building out front is the town’s first doctors office! How cool! The house was his residence. It needs some updating, but I think it should be kept as close to original as possible! Built in 1890 in Monterey, Virginia. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and 2,500 square feet. $125,000 New Price: $110,000
From the Zillow listing:

The framework surrounding the doors, the staircase, built in cabinetry in the dining room and all the remaining wood work will shine again with restoration.

What I love about the home
This home is older construction that has stood the test of time and use for over 125 years. Like many of the homes on Spruce Street in Monterey, this property has its place in local history as the home of one the earliest know doctors in the town. The small building located beside the home was his office and was constructed with the same craftsmanship as the house. Still in good condition this building could be used as a a hobby shop, workshop or space for any kind of home to all your craft ideas. An additional town lot also conveys with property.
Let them know you saw it on Old House Life!
