Property Description

This is an AUCTION bidding will begin on Djsauctionsusa.com on 9/14/2025 and will end with a live/onsite simulcast at 11:00am EST on Saturday 10/4/2025. This is your chance to purchase a home with what our local radio personality said was the best front porch in Mt Sterling. This home is a blank slate for you to come in and make your own. Sitting on a .4 acre lot with its own private driveway to off street parking this stately home is right across Main Street from First Christian Church and close to downtown. It would make a stunning single family home but also has the potential to be a multi-generational home for families where older parents may want their independence but need family close. It could also make a great Air BNB or Short Term rental income for you as well. As it was at one time divided into a couple of apartments upstairs several years ago but then brought back to a single family home. It can be yours to make what you want with great bones. The roof and vinyl siding were replaced approx. 10yrs ago. The inside as you will see in the photos the plaster will need some repair along with the wall paper removed. The home will either need new gas lines plumbed in or gas removed all together and taken all electric. The home will need rewired as being built in the early 1900's the home still has tube and wire electric. It would most likely need new plumbing as well. While doing all of this it would be great to put in central heat and air. I tell you all this on the request of the owner. This home has wonderful wood floors and French doors along with all sorts of old home charm that for the right person could make a show piece and wonderful home. At the back of the house is a wonderful little patio type area that leads to the back yard which has a nice little garden shed sitting next to a large shed they have used for storage. There is also an area that you could build a nice detached garage as well. I encourage you come and take a look at this home it is a diamond in the rough and you can make it your own and enjoy some front porch sitting while enjoying some sweet tea or lemonade.
