Its 83 years old. It sits on a half acre of land with fruit trees and grapes. Its closer to the Empress than Gettysburg or the pink house. It has over 2800 square feet of floor space, four solid bedrooms and two others that could be used as bed rooms, a large dining room and a mud room, and a lot of unfinished space in the basement. It has a 2 car garage with a workshop in the middle. The house is in good shape, the yard is fairly well landscaped (the garden area is a bit weedy and there's a kinda cobbled together chicken coop, but the lawns are mowed and the trees are healthy.) And it backs onto an undeveloped 40-50 acres. So how come its $16,000 less than the pink house and $11,000 less than Gettysburg?

Well, there's only one bathroom. The kitchen was last updated somewhere around 1924 and lacks a lot of the amenities. Its on a busy street and isn't fully fenced. Its not as well maintained as Gettysburg, and it isn't zoned for horses (we think).

Makes me feel vindicated on my assessment that the pink house was only worth 185,000.
