Although being sold “AS IS '', this Historic Country Home is totally livable and has had many improvements throughout the years. It is not listed in the Historical Registry so there are no limitations on repairs and improvements. Files from previous owners indicate that this home was originally named “Newbold Messuage” and was once owned by many prominent government officials and 4 US Postmasters. Underneath the Rotunda was the original Georgetown Post Office, which was once a mail/stagecoach stop. It eventually closed in 1920 when the Columbus Post Office opened. At one point, the breakfast room was once the local Doctor’s Office with the entry being in the Laundry Room. Cash or FHA203K financing only. This is a rare opportunity to live in, fix up, restore, and create sweat equity! See it today and make it yours!
