Calling all dreamers, DIYers, and investors! Welcome to 1315 Albert St, a 1909 North Hill foursquare sitting on a roomy 55 x 138 corner lot at Albert and Sheridan. With five bedrooms, two staircases, and the kind of old-house character buyers search high and low for, this classic is ready for a little TLC and a whole lot of imagination. Bring your vision and bring this North Hill beauty back to life!
The bones are what make this one special. A big covered front porch stretches across the front of the home, just waiting for a couple of rocking chairs and some flower pots. The corner lot offers great natural light and a generous yard with plenty of room to garden, relax, or entertain.
Inside, the entry foyer features a sweeping front staircase that sets the tone for the character throughout. Original hardwood floors run through the main level, and the natural woodwork, pocket doors, and built-in china closet showcase the kind of craftsmanship you simply can't find in newer construction. Imagine them restored and shining!
The living room is anchored by a decorative fireplace, the perfect focal point for your future gathering space. The dining room features a charming window seat, ready for new cushions and a cozy reading spot. The rooms throughout the main level are generously proportioned, giving you a great canvas to create the layout and style you've always wanted.
The kitchen includes a convenient back staircase, a classic feature of homes from this era. It's ready for your favorite cabinets, counters, and finishes. This is your chance to design the kitchen you want instead of paying for someone else's choices!
Head upstairs to find three bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor. Keep going up the walk-up attic to discover two more bedrooms, giving you five in all, with flexibility for guests, a home office, a studio, a hobby room, or extra living space. That's a lot of room for the money!
Even more potential: a full basement offers space for storage, a workshop, or laundry, and the home has central air. Out back, a detached one-car garage and a paved driveway provide off-street parking plus room for tools and outdoor gear.
This home is being sold AS-IS and is ready for updates and personal touches throughout. Whether you're dreaming of a classic restoration that honors its original charm or a fresh, modern makeover, this home gives you the space, the layout, and the architectural details to make it truly yours, and the opportunity to build value along the way.
Investors, this one is worth a look: five bedrooms on a corner lot in an established neighborhood, close to everything, with a long list of character features already in place.
The location is a big plus. You'll be surrounded by the classic tree-lined streets and historic architecture the North Hill is known for, just minutes from shopping, dining, parks, schools, and major routes, with Downtown New Castle right around the corner.
Cash and conventional financing welcome. Homes with this much character and space don't come along every day. Schedule your showing, bring your ideas, and start picturing what 1315 Albert St can become!
