About this home

Old brick, big character, and a whole lot of possibility! This distinctive two-story building in Cerro Gordo is ready for someone with vision to write its next chapter. Believed to have originally served as a blacksmith shop, it features a spacious main-level shop area, upstairs living space, and an attached garage. Upstairs offers three bedrooms plus a bonus room with potential for a fourth bedroom. French doors lead from the living room to an upper porch overlooking the neighborhood—a charming spot with plenty of potential! The brick exterior and tall windows give it a presence you simply can’t recreate with new construction. All upstairs windows and three downstairs windows have been replaced, giving its next owner a head start. Substantial repairs and renovation are needed, but there’s plenty here to spark the imagination. Bring your ideas, your tools, and your appreciation for a building with a story—this one is ready for a fresh start!
