Detroit's Charming Country Cottage Chops Price to $76K

Built in 1908, Old Redford's country cottage (and accompanying horse barn) just galloped back onto the market after a winter hiatus. Listed last summer at $90K, the asking price has slipped down to $76K. Not bad for 1,900 square feet and an entire acre of yard, right?
Full of oddly-shaped spaces and old woodwork, the interior hasn't changed much over the last century. The s-shaped staircase leads up to the only bathroom and three bedrooms, all with cove ceilings. Bonus spaces include a surprisingly roomy basement, the original horse barn (now functioning as the garage), and the beautiful, wraparound porch. We're not sure how much value Meijer can add to a property, but the new location will open just down the road later this summer.
