Imposing Carpenter Gothic Home

Post by Willa »

In the province of Nova Scotia, Canada. Asking price $ 269,000 CAN - about $ 201,000 USD:

The decor is so-so, sad 80's kitchen reno. However - the original details of the house are most excellent. Check out those extra pointy interior shutters for the windows. The house itself has many fine details, but the exterior is a knock-out, IMO.

(Someone in the comments section said this was Carpenter Gothic so I am going along with that. There's also a couple of archival photos of this house, which once had a twin - !!!! - but it burnt down.)
