    Other than the color of the kitchen cabinets I could make this place work. Especially for the pocket change price.

    Very cute, although I agree with JP that cabinet color has to go. In my area, that house would go for over $600,000.

    Adorable! I actually could live with the cabinet color, but I would probably paint them something other than red and keep red as an accent somehow. But the house is great. And that price! As rosa said, in the Northeast you couldn't get a garage for that.

    Yes.

    as I panned down that block, there are not trees. I wonder if it’s one of those old neighborhoods that lost its trees due to some disease

    I’m just charmed at how cute it is from the outside, and then on the inside it has pretty hardwood floors, which are typical, but still they’re nice, the bump out bay in the living room which is an added feature, and the little nook, the kitchen sits in. Very very cute. And I like the red kitchen cabinets even.

    it has a garage which for this price is pretty unusual. I wonder why it hasn’t sold?

    houses like this go for an extra hundred thousand dollars in the city of St. Louis in neighborhoods with you want to live in

    okay----cute houses in my 'hood. Well, the place two doors down sold to a flipper. The flipper bought another house nearby several years ago for $60k, and it was on the market a year or two later for $240k, and sold. 'course----this is a very low-income slum; nothoing like Fran Louisco or other upscale places. But yeah---his latest acquisition is a bit stigmatized. It's the one that 35 years ago, Lonnie Mow and his wife rehabbed, then moved. Lonnie Mow passed away, not long ago. Well, the place changed hands several more times, and a couple in their 50's bought it, and lived there 20+ years. But then---he got tired of living, and shot himself, and several years later, she passed after being ill for awhile. Both deaths occurred on the property. So, it could be haunted. I don't know, but I would not care to live there, knowing that. OTOH, the Bentler place up near Bonaparte, IWAH sold for a nice sum, but still very cheap compared to either coast. Hope th
