Built in 1871

Welcome to this large historic brick home with space galore. From the beautiful hardwood floors and ornate tin ceilings, to the wood molding and trim, there is no shortage of character throughout the 2,600+ SF home that was built in 1871. While the property features beautiful details and has been fairly well maintained, it is in need of some TLC and repairs to bring it back to its full potential. With a little love, this house could be transformed into the stunning and spacious masterpiece it previously was 150 years ago. Located just blocks from historic downtown Fort Scott, it is situated within walking distance of local shops, restaurants, and entertainment. Don't miss out on the opportunity to purchase this house with a great equity position and renovate it as you desire!
