The ballerina house is back. A project awaits. Jaw dropping architectural integrity. The home of George Lant, built circa 1880 by George Lant who also built Trinity Methodist church from 1864-1866, is on the market for $31,500 with a flat roof fix underway. In need of tuck pointing and brick sealing, or new stucco on the exterior that would otherwise seal the brick, the home was originally stuccoed, and you can see the original on the small arched veranda. The home will likely need all new HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. But to those that work hard, awaits a full 1,400sf brick basement, a full walk up attic, almost every wall (except a few closets) is 3 wythe solid brick - even the interior walls and the turning corridor that solely goes to the veranda. Original slate roof. Asymmetrical fenestration, offset one story square tower, French Second Empire mansard details. Looking for architectural integrity? How about 3 exterior doors with original hardware and no modern locks, or a double entry, or original late 19th century light fixtures, or a gas wall fixture, or original closet hardware, or 9'9" pocket doors? Looming for location? The 184' deep lot with original brick paver path and patio area is shaded with mature trees, and is 4 blocks from the new medical school and around the corner from the new restaurant Waltons. Huge opportunity!
