This house has some really cool history. The owner had decided to renovate the original structure and added details based on George Barber’s architectural works. He’s a prominent figure for houses built between the 1890’s and 1910. You’ll see his…
This house is an interesting opportunity for someone. It has been subdivided into 5 different 1 bed/1 bath units. I love the idea of that and that it’s near the local colleges so it gives students a place to stay.…
