This 1900’s built American Foursquare is a true storyteller and still has so much more to say! Renovations are required but good bones and authentic features remain making it a sure bet for the historic enthusiast, handy owner occupant or savvy investor looking for a great deal on an equitable project with high returns. A columned front porch + architectural details score this one high from the curb. Inside you’ll discover over 3,000 SQFT, patterned hardwood floors, pocket doors, a mantled fireplace, crown moldings, unique archways + massive, light filled rooms spanned over 3 levels. Formality reigns over the main level with a large entry, living room, dining room, dedicated study, kitchen and a full bath. The kitchen and bath have been cleared to the plaster with the exception of original cabinets/porcelains planed for repurposing. 4 Bedrooms and a full bath are privately located on the 2nd floor. Fun feature, 1 of the bedrooms sports rooftop access and 2 others offer closet connectivity plumbed for a wet sink for ease in brushing teeth before bed! Space continues in the finished attic serving APARTMENT VIBES w/a large living room, bonus bedroom (total of 5!), a private bath and full kitchen w/outdoor access to a NOW REMOVED deck. Consider options for in-law/teen suite, Air BNB, passive rental income or a dedicated work from home environment. A full basement completes the value. This property has so much to offer, must be sold in its current As-Is/Where-Is condition and is priced reflectively. Seller will make NO REPAIRS – NO EXCEPTIONS. Bring your vision and best offer to 161 Lexington Avenue and become part of Dayton’s resurging Historic home movement in beautiful Ole Dayton View! Sight unseen, wholesale or "intent to purchase" contracts will not be considered.
