Fix up this Islandview Victorian, yours for $60K

What a difference a few years makes. This house is located on Field Street in Islandview, near Kercheval. The development in West Village is heading that way; a church has been recently renovated across the street (we know the rumors of what it could be — if anyone has details, here’s the tip line) and another development is in the works across on Kercheval. This house sold for $1,000 in 2011. It’s now listing for an even $60,000.

This is one that looks like it needs a complete renovation from the ground up. But the potential is big here. It’s just over 2,000 square feet, with five bedrooms and a wide open attic space. This is definitely for someone who’s ready to take on a really big project. It’s close to West Village and just down the street from Belle Isle. This one could really be a knockout in the right hands.
