This is my Moby Dick. And yes, coincidentally, it is white. This gorgeous Italianate beauty on Caroline Street has the most beautiful bones, but sits vacant. The decay is already apparent, but I am truly hoping someone will save this Grande Dame before it’s too late.
But this isn’t all of it. Yes, this is a pretty old house that has tons of potential. However, this property is also HUGE for city standards. Behind this house sits an adorable little cottage I have also been coveting, accessible via Starbuck Lane, which happens to be one of my favorite streets in the city. Upon a look at the tax maps, I noticed that these two buildings sit on one giant lot. There is also a small old barn on the property, which I’m afraid , seems not worth saving at this point. However, you could build on the footprint still. Oh, the possibilities! I drool.
If you or someone you know owns this house, let me know! Me likey!
