Far from turn-key, this circa-1920s Victorian style could be fabulous for the right buyer who isn’t afraid of a little hard work. Because the interior needs it. According to the listing, the owner of this cutie in Delaware County can expect to completely rehab the kitchen, repair sheet rock, and renovate the bathrooms. Hm. It’s close to the hamlet of Arkville so it’s not the kind of country property that is located on dozens of rolling acres. It’s a residential quarter-acre, and that’s it. Although we love the house and see the potential (total rehabs never scare us), the lack of land might be a deal-breaker. If we’re going to be up in Delaware County, we kind of want some land under our feet, but that’s just us. Thoughts?
