    Any idea of the value of the lot without the buildings?

    No clue. Vacant lots in this area don't become available frequently. I wonder what the ROI would be on a teardown and new construction.

      I'd buy it and turn it into suburban Bag-End.

      I mean no I wouldn't but if I won the ol' lotto, that's absolutely the first thing I'd do. We both talked about it many times. Win lotto, start a long-term renovation to turn an existing eyesore into a modern hobbit hole.

      Please love yourself.

        The front of the house does have a storybook feel to it. I love the lamppost by the front door. I imagine Mr Tumnus living there.

          Infills are very common here in older neighbourhoods and communities. Depending on the area it is often more economical to tear down and rebuild from scratch than renovate an old home. If the area is desirable and lot values in the area are steadily increasing, infilling a residential property that had an old house is they way to go in the long run. Urban areas that are high demand for infills have strong property value retention and neighbourhood renewal.

            You're right, it's got the Bag-End look which is really cute. The door, the overhang of the door, the roof window all cute but that is going to take a lot of work. I'd gut it and re-sheetrock and go from there the floors could be ok but thats about it. But it gets an "A" from me for cute. But now it's a 400k+ house, is that supportable?

              In this neighborhood, yes, easily.

                  George is a heckuva woodworker. That means he'll be a great cabinet guy.

                  Just think of all the new wrinkles he'll have on his horn!

                    Homes across the street run anywhere from $450 to $600. Granted, size might be different, but you get the gist.

                    In my town there are no two homes that are the same.

                        This is the cheaper part of town.

                        If you want to get pricey...
