503 Watson St, Ripon, WI – $120,000
3 Bed, 1 Bath, 2208 square feet. Check out the aerial view.

17 Jackson St, Cape May, NJ – $1,400,000
13 Bed, 11 Bath. Known as Poor Richard’s Inn and is listed on the National Register of Historic Homes. As usual, major picage going on. I know I must not have a single dial-up user since I post so many pics. If I found myself in Cape May, I would have to stay at this bed and breakfast, in Room 2 since it is my favorite!

Check out the street view, this neighborhood has some beautiful houses! And the aerial view.

1 Main St, Oxford, AL – $84,900
4 Bed, 3 Bath, 1.88 acres. Just realized this house is in Oxford, I think my sister lives in Oxford. Crime in Oxford use to be double the national average, but the last few years, crime has gone down to just over the national average. Check out the street view here, I wonder what kind of neighborhood this is. Check out the aerial view, I wonder what buildings/area is next door, buildings were there in the Google aerial view (not the street view though.) This is a foreclosure, so no interior pics. Looks like a cute house from the exterior, I love the fence too!

117 Sheboygan St, Fond Du Lac, WI – $249,900
7 beds, 7 baths, 7945 square feet. What a house! Too bad it is 6 multi-units! At this price though, I’d kill to turn it back into a hugemongous single residence. Known as the Henry Boyle Mansion. The aerial view. Searched for a while, could not find a build date! Guess that is why I missed it in my search and just happened upon this house when looking at the previous one. Hmmm…I have to guess this one is built 1890’s…maybe…anyone want to agree or disagree with me?
