9270 N Main St, Windham, OH – $134,900
5 bed, 2 bath, 2488 square feet on 3.11 acres. I would be the first to admit, this is an ugly house…right now. I see this house as it could be though. I see the old fashion windows back, take off that aluminum siding and restore the original (or if not there or repairable then replace with something other than what is there now), brackets on the underside of the eaves (or dentil molding similar to what is under the eaves of the porch), a beautiful paint job, landscaping and whatever else I cannot think of right now. And of course, the interior! You can just see the house peeking through the trees on the street view here.
