Property Description.
Words cannot describe how absolutely stunning this large historic davenport home once was. Placed high up on a hill on the corner of East 15th St And Bridge Ave in Davenport this diamond in the ruff cleaned up would look like it was straight out of a fairy tale. We noted the following issues needing attention. There are a few cracked or broken windows. The wrap around porch has settled and is in need of a complete rebuild. The roof doesn’t look the worst at first glance but has exceeded its useful life and is leaking in two spots; where the porch meets the home and a second spot where a falling tree made a hole. Inside will require a complete makeover patching, painting, and flooring will be needed in every room. At some point it appears the home was left without heat and there are potentially some broken water lines. Luckily all the plumbing for the home runs up one kitchen wall for the kitchen and both bathrooms making it a great candidate for a quick pex re-pipe. Previous occupants tried their best to install what looks to be a used electric water heater in place of the gas one however it is not right and will need removed and correctly replaced. Now that the bad is out of the way what it has going for it! A freshly jetted and wide open sewer system, stunning woodwork and fireplace, running heat, an updated breaker box for the electrical system and the size! Its hard to find an affordable home this big these days 4 bedrooms 2 baths and a possible 5th bed in the walk up attic space. Fenced in back yard and a underground 2 car open garage.
