House one looks like a real winner– probably not too many hidden problems once the septic’s in and other details are finished. It could be a fantastic investment property both long and short term.

House two is a rehabber’s dream (heavy sigh…) It could be a showplace when finished, but possibly a nightmare to work on– can’t even imagine the hidden horror lurking behind those deceptively beautiful period details. Still….

Thanks for posting the pictures– love it :)

Actually both houses look good. And that’s not the beer goggles talking either.

It’s obvious whomever was living in the second house knew they were leaving. Several shows on television have talked about people who are forced to leave their homes and, for some reason, they leave everything behind. Rather than try to sell some stuff on ebay or craigslist, they just leave.

Weird.
