ATTENTION all you history buffs that have dreamed of living in a century old home. This is a diamond in the rough, it truly is! Built in 1918, just after the Great Paris Fire of 1916, stand this majestic Grande Dame waiting for someone to bring her back to life. 3000 square feet combined on 2 levels with potential to be a showplace once again. Typical to the period, there are multiple living spaces on the 1st floor, kitchen and bath. The stairway to the upstairs sleeping quarters is simple and solid. Original hardwood floors throughout. The remaining wallpaper is cheese cloth backed, giving the idea that it may also be original, though in poor condition. Most of the woodwork is also original. So much potential here! There is a need for some leveling, primarily in the center of the house. The property is subject to the Church Street Historic District restrictions for the exterior only.
Directions:
From downtown Paris, Tx; South on Church Street; house on west side of street
