        One of very few historic houses left to be restored that is relatively untouched. It should be considered a "shell" since one would want to add 21st amenities, kitchen and baths. However it is worthy.

        The gracious entrance hall includes a vew through the house to an original arched faux marble fireplace. The original newell post, railing and balustrades are in tackt and ready for restoration. The rooms are generous with high ceilings. There is a living room, separate dining room, eat-in sized kitchen, half baath and utility room on first floor. There are three bedrooms on second floor and a bath.

      The building appears to be in basic excellent condition. Important to a restoration, is the condition of the under structure. A formal inspection by a third party inspectors has just been completed on the crawl space, sill and floor joists to assure a prospective Buyer. This report is available upon request. The condition was declared "Overall-good condition."
