Steller price & $8,500 incl for exterior re-paint(just cleaned) & prof hardwood floor re-sand/poly. Nestled in the heart of historic Opelika, just a stroll from downtown & the new Floral Park, this 1894 Queen Anne-style Victorian is a rare architectural treasure! Behind its turreted façade and decorative bargeboard gable lies a beautifully preserved 4-bed, 2-bath home filled w/warmth, craftsmanship & character. A dramatic curved concrete stairway leads to a hand-carved front door & series of inviting foyers.
