$99,900
If you can get past some junky photos from the real estate agent, this five-bedroom on Oak Drive really is as "magnificent and grand" as the listing claims. Granite and hardwood floors are found inside.
$125,000
You'll be hard-pressed to find a home with more historic charm than this 1927 tudor. Inside: Hardwood floors, leaded glass in windows and doors, limestone fireplace.
$15,000 (starting bid)
This pretty house is a bank foreclosure, so it's heading to auction with a starting bid of $15K. Behind all that brick and stone you'll find five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and about 3,000 square feet.
$99,900
This 3,900-square-foot giant just hit the market, asking under $100K for five bedrooms and five bathrooms. Also mentioned: "maid's quarters," a deck, and a finished basement.
$57,000
This beautiful fixer-upper needs some attention, but we'd say its dramatic design would be worth it. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms, 2,700 square feet.
$128,500
On the pricier end of things, this house comes with "all the bells and whistles." They're not kidding--there's even a sauna within. Five beds and baths, a sunroom, and a finished basement add up to 3,000 square feet.

Yet another pretty tudor on Oak Drive, this one contains four bedooms, three bathrooms, and 3,000 square feet.

Huge 3,300-square-foot colonial asking $100K on leafy Muirland Street.
$69,999
Everything is updated in this four-bedroom tudor, which also includes the potential for expansion on an unfinished third floor. Look for a sun porch and some refinished hardwood floors inside.
$62,500
This house's asking price was just chopped by $12,500. How long it's been vacant is unclear, but this could end up being a great deal--assuming all its pipes and electrical are still in place
