Septic.
Well water.
Electrical wiring.
Structural work.
And that's just for starters.
Got some time on your hands? Not afraid of some intense, hard work? How about some cash hidden away under a mattress? Just received a substantial inheritance that you don't know where to invest? You might do a lot worse than investing it in this place. You could turn it into a showplace, or a small rustic get-a-way along Route 1. Maybe you've been thinking about those retirement years and the idea of opening a little shop to lure the tourists making a beeline for Camden or Rockland. This just might be the place.
I've already done it.
You get your hands dirty this time.
I'll just dream.
Uhhh, not me. But thanks for the suggestion.
ReplyDeleteHmm, this could be it!
ReplyDeleteYes, I think that would do very well. Now, where's my lottery ticket?
ReplyDeleteI thought that retirement was about 'rest', maybe not idleness, but rest nonetheless... By the way, I think you are right about this place!
ReplyDeletePt might be too late to fix this place.
ReplyDeletenot handy enough, foolish enough or rich enough to attempt it. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm past the fixer upper stage. Now I want someone else to do the fixing up!
ReplyDeleteI think I might start with a SLIGHTLY smaller project based on how long it takes me just to get around to vacuuming my own house. :-)
ReplyDeleteBeen there done that, too. But I would know what mistakes to avoid the 2nd time around.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a wreck, and I'm not quite the sort who can repair things on his own.
ReplyDeleteDone it myself as well. Not once, not twice, but am on my third old house. No more, I say!
ReplyDeleteNeeds a LOT of TLC . . .
ReplyDeleteThat could be a sweet home.
ReplyDeletewow.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to know what happened. Did the people completely abandon their mortgage and everything? The windows on the top floor are really tall. It might have been nice at one point.
