This 1903 semi-detached in Paris needs real work — the kitchen has no proper cabinetry, the main floor hardwood is worn through in spots, and the interior cosmetics are a full project from top to bottom. Buyers should go in clear-eyed about the scope.
The bones are solid: original brick, decent room sizes, and a standout feature in the form of a ground-floor salon space with its own separate entrance. That space has track lighting, a wash station, and a vanity — it could work as a home-based business, studio, or rental offset with some planning.
The mechanical side has seen recent attention — furnace and AC replaced in 2023, roof done in 2017. The backyard is fully fenced with newer wood fencing and a covered rear patio. Two-car gravel parking at the rear. For a buyer willing to put in the work, the price reflects the condition.
