Wow! $140,000! The garage alone would cost that much here in Denver! I'll take it! 
Just kidding. While I'd love to buy it and fix it up, alas, I'm stuck in Denver for a while. The weather is much nicer here, too. I grew up in NY state and the winters are pretty brutal.

My God...the size of that house here where I live would cost upwards of £2 million...in pounds.... ( in a liveable condition)...which that isn't... I think in all honesty whoever buys that has to raise it to the ground and start anew...

They did a good job.
Wise to keep the photos small and interesting.
Love the neighborhood.
After gutting and rebuilding the kitchen
one could live in the house while gutting one bathroom before doing the other bathroom.
Then one room at a time.
Best of luck.

I disagree. After watching a lot of home improvement shows, there is nothing wrong that can not be fixed with $$. It would be a shame to lose that historic charm.

I hope that you get a quick sale without a lot of haggling.

Wow! Love it. A real bargain for someone who is willing to spend some $$$ to update it. Beautiful home!

It is a beautiful home. In my younger days I would have loved to work and restore it.
I can. I kinda do the same thing around my place. It's ignoring stuff until it becomes overwhelming.

I can understand needing to save for repairs, and maybe making only the critical repairs; but keeping a kitchen clean, the place where you make the food you eat-nope I can not understand that.

If I was younger I too, would have loved that house. It has so many features that I like. Someone will buy it and restore it. I am sure it will sparkle again.

S140K sounds like a price that should allow you to rid yourself of this place fairly quickly. That price will allow the buyer to spend a bunch of money to fix it up, and still be within the price range of similar homes in that area. Good luck and hope you get a quick sale.

WOW! It needs a LOT of work. So much water damage. I'd be afraid it had mold in the walls. Too bad it was not kept up. It was a lovely home in it's day. Now...not so much
Uh.....home repairs cost. My house was built in 1953. My sister & I spent $90,000.00 in plumbing & electrical alone - still needs painting & some remodeling.
The older houses weren't built with pre-fab walls made of soft, cheap material that soaks up water.WOW! It needs a LOT of work. So much water damage. I'd be afraid it had mold in the walls. Too bad it was not kept up. It was a lovely home in it's day. Now...not so much
My house had some flooding on the bottom floor but no mold. The walls are sealed plaster.

Had a showing today, so I had to leave for an hour. No feedback yet on that. The person is still probably trying to recover from laughing.
