Aside from fixing the water damage, this house looks like its move in ready. Most of the updates I would do is trying to restore the wood trim, but id would do that over time as I live in it. This house is in a area Ive been looking at and the price is right.

Hands off, everyone – this one is MINE… For real, I hope! After four years of searching for just the right place, this one checks virtually every box, despite some significant moisture issues and related damage. I hope it won’t jinx everything to write this, but I was actually hoping Kelly would overlook posting it for just a few more days… But if it’s meant to be, it will – and if so, I promise to do my best to see that the “after” will not leave my fellow OHDers in despair… : )
Fingers crossed!!

Thank you, Roxxx!
The farmhouse of John Angle Fox (1817-1912), who married Rebecca Cross in 1849 and bought a large farm from her father Joshua Cross, after whom the road is named. Living with Angle and Rebecca in 1850 was her brother Latham Cross, a carpenter and possibly the builder.
Over the years, many members of the extended family lived on the farm, some buried in the family cemetery across the road. It’s a fine old place that could use some sprucing up and a bit of color.

I was hoping you’d come through on this one, Jim – Thank you!
Check out this detail on the stair stringer. I’ve never seen something like it.
