I love the 1926 front porch and wroight iron and the (original?) staircase. The stubby shutters on the first floor are a puzzle but easily remedied. The interior is mostly a blank slate which could be beautiful.
Oddly enough the street view shows regular full length shutters, but also stucco that’s sliding off the facade. Probably repaired about the same time the roof was replaced and funds didn’t extend to the correct shutter replacement.
The 1920’s portico is lovely in itself, but completely wrong for this house and kind of ruins the whole facade. It’s too anemic and much too small in scale for what would otherwise be a very robust and handsome Greek Revival structure.

Really? I thought it looked fine, I wouldn’t change it.
I kind of agree. The porch is nice, but it leaves the rest of the house looking bare and not that welcoming. To me anyway. Maybe if the exterior was painted some other colors?

I say it’s the windows giving it that bare look. The 1/1 windows are not giving the home what it needs. I’d give them 6/6, like the bottom left window is. Landscaping and BAM, a nicer presence.
They appear to be 6/6, they are just behind really dark screens. I can see the lines though.
Now that I think about it, probably landscaping would really help the curb appeal – bushes, flowers, etc.
what is that shiny floor – looks like marble but seems kind of odd for this house?
this house has a nice almost mansion feel to it. and with that price, plenty of money left over to fix it.
Yes, the shiny “marble-looking” floor looks like it was added recently. Doesn’t look like it fits in. I’m sure the floor would have been wood when built.
Beyond Beautiful!!! Perfect!! Love it!!
I love it just as it is stumpy shutters and all!
for that low price, get the paint buckets OUT
