Truly incredible Turn of the century Pierce and Bickford mansion. Home is currently uninhabitable. No Heat, water not connected, no functional bath or kitchen but ready to restore! Be a party of this districts revitalization! Beautiful second floor views of the river. Amazing natural mahogany woodwork. Wonderful stained-glass. Large rooms with pocket doors and beautiful fireplaces and built-in's. Incredible barn would need serious structural work. Newly restored porch. Incredible newer roof with copper valleys and ornamentation. Could become a showpiece of our historic district!
