I made an offer :D

So I mentioned that I've been looking for an inexpensive victorian house back east and many of you brought this one to my attention yesterday when it was posted on cheapoldhouses instagram page! (Thank you by the way)

Realistically, I think my chances are VERY slim on getting it, as there has been a lot of excitement over it online, but I guess if you don't try, you never know :D

I want you all to be involved in this exciting search, as it is YOU who are making this possible for me :))) 

Like I said, this one seems so unlikely that it will work out and assuming it doesn't, I will keep you in the loop on what comes up in the future!

Thank you all so much for your incredible support and cross your fingers for me :)))

-Christine

I made an offer :D

We’re in a similar situation! 1897 Victorian in Elmira, NY. I LOVE my house, and yours too! Enjoy!

Filomena Jack Studio

That is not the mansion she bought. It looks similar but they moved into a different one.

Sarah Jones

Aahhhh And then you got it! I just found out about you, and I’ve absolutely cherished your journey.

Andreja Bradshaw

Best of luck! It's gorgeous and the whole vibe of the house really suits you.

Riona O'Faoladh

Such beautiful homes are impossible to find here in Houston,Tx xD. Wow.

Sharon J. Edwards

Any word on the house bid yet?? Hope you get it 🙏🥰

Brenda L.

I looked at the house on Zillow. That house is screaming you. I hope you can get it and working on it to make it your touch would be a dream.

Laura Gilb

This is so cool! I really hope you are able to own that beautiful house! I can only imagine the incredible things you would do to it. Good luck, Christine! *fingers crossed*

Melodie figueroa

So happy to hear! That house totally needs you! (I had tagged you on the insta post for the house) and can 100% see you making that space amazing. I did a big house like that once and it was a labor of love. Totally worth it! 💜 I recommend writing them a love letter. Worked for me. If you don’t win this bid we shall keep an eye out for another. 🔮📿

Latest article: "Buyers will have until 5 p.m. Dec.18, to submit offers. A vote will then be taken based on which buyer has the best restoration plan and intended use for the property." https://www.newyorkupstate.com/homes/2019/12/for-sale-in-upstate-ny-fixer-upper-civil-war-mansion-for-50000-with-10-bedrooms.html

Angela Pogue

what is the update? Did they accept your offer? This house is beautiful.

Jessica Morris

Umm, this is a bit ironic. One of my best buds name is Charles McCarthy. He even kind of resembles the photo.

Jessica Morris

I have to admit that a little part of me hopes she keeps the house she’s in now so she has a place on both coasts with one close to her mom. Then again, with 10 bedrooms in this NY house, maybe her parents are moving with her 💁🏼‍♀️

Ellerie “Sit in Your Tears” Maddox

I hope her bid included something about her current home. Showing the amount of care and artistry she invests seems like it would make the offer much more appealing. I think the hardest part for me would be not being able to bid on another home in the meantime because funds are tied up.

Shaunty Michael McMillin

She most likely won't know until after December 18th. The listing has an update and says multiple offers made and that buyers have until December. 18th @5 pm to put an offer in. Fingers crossed for Christine still though!!

caitlin interlicchia

Right? The suspense and anticipation is killing me!

Wednesday

Did Christine win the bid? Inquiring minds want to know.

Mike Lehman

I found this house

Kim Thongdee

I saw this, and saw so much potential! defiantly a big project, but if anyone should get this house, its you!

Tess Annett

Very excited for you!

Megan

Definitely you, it looks amazing. Hope you get it and we get to see your spin on it...I would go the other way more addams family/ Munsters ...😊🕷🦇

Beci Johnson

You should have a peak around New England. I live in MA and they are tearing down old houses all the time, we have loads of pre-20th century homes in rough shape. I wish someone would save them, but all anyone wants these days are shoddy white cardboard boxes and Ikea. I see construction crews gutting beautiful old homes all the time and knocking them down to build new ones. they rip up the old georgian/colonial hand planed oak floors and remove the Victorian mahogany built in bookcases. If this one doesn't work out, come east and save a lovely old home from the ruthless modernizers!

Victoria

BTW this sight may help you as well. Filled with a list though out the U.S. and they have listing for all different styles of house as well. https://circaoldhouses.com/historic-real-estate-agents/

Lynn Weingarden-Marston

Good for you! Just outside Syracuse NY (My old stomping grounds) Good luck!

Cyn

Omg!!!! I saw this on cheap old houses and almost died!!!! It’s perfect!

Kristina pierce

This house is amazing! I live kinda close by if you ever need some help 😂🖤

Cassandra

It looks perfect for you! I really hope you get it!!! fingers crossed!!!🖤🖤🖤

Rachael Ruby

Considering where it is upstate, if you get this house, I hope you build a heck of a wine seller!! (oooh, I'd love a tutorial on a goth-y/witch-y wine rack!)

Izile

When will you know if you got it?

Aunt Debbie Halloween

I want you to have this house!

PennySized Dreadfuls

Totally. Lots to replaster. I imagine the plumbing all has to be replaced...not to mention when was the electrical last updated. Lots of work...BUT if you have the time/energy/money. I mean we will all literally pay Christine to watch her redo this house here on patreon for the next 15 years :D

Celeste Young

You are SO deserving of this! Fingers crossed you get such a beautiful home!

Katie Lewis

Girl, ima need you to speak with some authority over this house. Being overly modest in your words won’t help you get the house any more. Speaking highly and confidently about your chances of owning this house whether you get it or not is only gonna help you and your confidence. You got this! The house is yours and if it turns out not to be the case then it wasn’t meant for you and something better is waiting! ♥️

Ashley

"We asked the professional opinion of a historic preservationist, who believes that the home requires very little work to bring it up to safe living conditions. " Be nice if the listing agent would agree to a few more pics, like the bathrooms and kitchen. The roof doesn't look bad from the aerial view but there's definitely been water damage at some point.

Angela Pogue

Good luck!

Cassandra Cork

OMG, I follow cheapoldhouses on Instagram and this one came up. I was discussing making an offer and my mom wanted to know why it was so cheap. We both decided it must be VERY haunted for that price, or they're looking to start a bidding war... Best of luck!

Jared Malone

Aaah! Good luck!

Lana S.

That house is large and a lot of work. I would guess given all of her commitments thus would be more work than is manageable. It is def in rough shape

MichelleShari

It’s beautiful! Good luck!

Katy Kreitzer

I saw that house and heard it’s haunted!!! I hope you get it!!

Crystal Nye

Galen Blanton

Even if the inside is garbage, this house is a steal at anything believe $120,000

Alfreda Payton

this came out about it the other day too https://www.messynessychic.com/2019/12/04/a-lonely-new-york-mansion-for-sale-possibly-haunted-still-a-rare-steal/

Jennifer Ray

Peggy

I know it's unlikely that your offer will be accepted, but I really really hope it works out for you!

Leah Wasil

Erika Robbins

That house is amazing!!! I know you freaked when you saw it. I'm glad you took the step and made an offer *hug*

Sherrie Potgieter

Who needs an exorcist when you could just have a Christine McConnell come befriend your ghosts and demons?

Sarah

It would be a MASSIVE incentive... honestly we would probably get along ;)

Christine McConnell

1) Is it haunted? 2) Would that be an incentive for you to get it?

Sarah

Good luck! I hope you get it!

Beth Sistrunk

omg I so hope you get this....I cannot wait to see what you could turn it into!

Melissa E Busby

Its beautiful. I hope you get it!

Rudy Bonilla

OH MY GOSH this is beautiful. Fingers crossed!!!

Kelsey Kristina

OMG - just looked at the Zillow - it has a widows walk at the top of the tower! And SO MUCH woodwork and trim perfectly intact! And a huge lot! And lots of spooky areas! And some good wallpaper! And a spooky old guy that's probably haunting the place! And there is a 13 in the address! I'm so excited for you! Good luck!

Aunt Debbie Halloween

WOWW HOW EXCITING! :DD I’m so happy for you! I am 100% sure you that if you won’t get this house, an even better one will come along. Keep visualising your dream house and it will come to you n_n love from the Netherlands xxx

Hannah Graham-de Vries

Oh WOW!! It looks straight out of a dream!! I so hope you'll get it, would love to see what you make of it! It'll be even more magical ✨ Crossing my fingers as hard as I can, good luck!

Naama

Excuse my French, but “god damn!” That’s nice. Good luck ✨

Fraser Poorman

Good luck on your bid! The house looks like it's in surprisingly good shape for what they're asking.

GothKittyLady

I don't know Christine, you've got a ton of people sending you good juju so fingers crossed!!

Suzanne Peroustianis

I love that your patrons are so involved with this and suggesting things! I would never be able to even find such deals. We're all so excited with what you're going to end up

Malaika

Christine, I'm not sure if you've seen the same listing on Old House Dreams, but one of the commenters looked at the house in 2009 and they have added links to the floor plan and tons more pics from back then. https://www.oldhousedreams.com/2019/12/02/1861-gothic-revival-in-auburn-ny/

LC

OMG. just went through the pics...that is really good deal if you get it..also HOLY F you're gonna have a lot of work to do. But...that place is amazing and im sure you would bring it back to life. Definitely a life long project, that place.

Celeste Young

It’s gorgeous, I hope you get it!

Athena Pennington

I wanted this house so bad, now maybe I'll get to live through you.. fingers crossed!

Claire Elise

Fingers crossed!

Cherie Wheeler

I almost freaking tagged you in that post! In SO GLAD!! I showed it to my husband, hoping he'd wanna jump on it. It's such an Addams Family House. It would make the coolest B&B. You got this!

Sara Logan

Wow, it is SO perfect for you. I can totally imagine you there. I really hope you get it! Fingers crossed!

Clare Buswell

Ok, when I checked this out, I was scrolling through the rooms and BAM the one room with floral wallpaper hit me, it's the same as our bedroom, the wallpaper and trim is like the same from the period correct reno the last owners did. YIKES! ALSO this town is full of historical homes & they treat their downtown nice & old timey :)

Angela Pogue

*fingers crossed for you! thats exciting

Cami Walker

No houses are not this cheap. That is a starting bid and obviously the house needs a lot of work and there are property taxes as well.

Sarah Cortez

Whatever and everything she wants!!! :)

Sarah Cortez

Christine, this looks like something HGTV might be interested in. Filming you remodel! We should all send letters to the agent to consider you!

Sarah Cortez

I just saw that property on my instagram feed! I love it so much! It looks stunning. Hope you get it! Fingers crossed!

Christine

A shining!

Sarah Cortez

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/113-North-St-Auburn-NY-13021/89482589_zpid/.

Sarah Cortez

Noooo! :) I have remodeled some of the oldest houses. Nothing ever happened except for imaginations. Christine would probably enjoy it.

Sarah Cortez

YES! 🙌 That first photo it looks like a gingerbread house and another one looks so dark and moody. Completely gorgeous and completely you.

Cariushka

Oh the videos of you fixing up this house would be incredible! I hope you get it! You would make this place amazing!

Amber Combs

Are you worried about it being haunted? :) It's beautiful, best of luck!

Susan Nack

What a beauty of a home ~ looks like it is meant for You:). I can imagine the wonderful (and much-needed) TLC you'd provide for it. Best of luck! 🤞🏼🤗

Grace

I apologize but I snooped on that house. If the bones are good, the layout is OUTSTANDING.

Hayley Hochstettler

Best of luck!!!!

Jennifer Crumley

Good luck Christine! It looks really cool!

Carnation

So exciting! I wish you all the luck and my fingers are crossed!! I hope you get it, it screams your name! 😍

Monica Adams

if you get it you will have your work cut out for you but it is a beautiful area...wishing you luck

Robin D.

The house looks amazing! I've always loved Victorian style homes too. Crossing my fingers for you!

Caitlin Kenny

I was thinking there must be some serious work needs done too, but theres a little house that's practically falling down that's just across the street from me and last time I checked it was going for about £200,000 (I would have bought it if it had been £50,000 lol)

Sarah Kane

Holy crap that house is amazing. We just bought a tiny little house here in Northern Ireland and its cost nearly twice as much I nearly fainted when I saw this lol

Sarah Kane

https://www.redfin.com/MD/Middletown/216-E-Main-St-21769/home/15201815 Here's one you might like too.

Nancy Jones

This house looks like you. It is in a wonderful area in the Finger Lakes and near the great lakes. What condition is it in? It does get cold and very snowy there. Good luck.

Nancy Jones

Good luck!!! That's a beautiful house!!

Joanna Norton

That house is amazing!! I hope you get it!!

Kelly Nason

Omg I can't. I hope you get it Christine. It has your name written all over it! <3

Jens Friborg

Good luck!!

Emily Hurt

That house needs you ❤️

Raquel Burt

I just saw this yesterday, I showed my husband and he was gobsmacked. I couldn't think of a better owner for it than you! Wish there were houses that cheap in the UK 😑 I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

VikkyFishwick

That's what I was thinking Jade, my tiny old falling apart flat is twice that much, makes me want to go buy something out there 😭

Evelin's Studio

What the heck that's so cheap! I couldn't even buy my crumbling apartment for that in the UK 😔 I hope you get it, it deserves to be in your hands, how thrilling ❤️

Evelin's Studio

That’s absolutely gorgeous !! My boyfriend and I were just there visiting his family in the neighboring town Weedsport! I loved Auburn while I was there and I recommend the Harriet Tubman museum !!

Sara Larmer

It's stunning and enough bedrooms so we can all come visit. ;)

MumtoHades

Absolutley a dream house! No project is too big for you it would seem. So glad you put an offer down. Hopefully it goes in your favor! Which in turn goes in ours as we'll get to see all the renovations and projects!!! Good luck Christine, got my fingers crossed for you.

Laura Auld

It depends on the state but this house is probably a major fixer upper if it’s that inexpensive

Sara Estridge

If anyone is going to put the love and care into this house the way it deserves to be cared for, it’s you!

Sara Estridge

https://www.facebook.com/100000935645761/posts/3403372209703934?d=n&sfns=mo Did you see this one

Kim Thongdee

wow its amazing fingers crossed for you <3

Joanne

It's a real beauty! Shame it's not a bit more private imo

Josephine Doyle

Are homes generally this cheap in America? You’d be paying quadruple this for a house like that here in the UK

Jade Hill

The house looks craaaaazy good! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

Nastya Cherednyk

This house isn't classified as historic, is it? We have an amazing mansion nearby and because it is listed as historic there's a TON of laws about what they can and cannot do with the property. Essentially, the only improvements they can make are to restore it to what it was. There was a BIG debacle because they wanted to redo some shelving and it wouldn't have been historically correct. I mean, freaking shelves. Just throwing it out there that you may want to be sure of it before purchase. I don't want any weird laws preventing you from being creative and making the house into a home in your vision. I hate to be a naysayer. So, I am not gonna say nay because it is BEAUTIFUL and I know you can restore it in your own way, but I just don't want you having any regrets on this.

Nicholas Frig

So exciting, good luck!

Jess Acton

That's exactly the type of house I see you in. And you'll paint it yellow or pink 😉

Paula Osborne

What a gorgeous house! I really hope you get it!

Christine H

Keeping my fingers crossed for you! ❤️

La Rose Couture

Go for it!!! And let me know what happens . . .

Tom Prejean

Ahh I love cheap old houses!!

Megan

Omg! I saw that on Cheap Old Houses Insta and fell in love! Best of luck! 🖤

Dana Vogel

All my hopes and prayer for you to get it! Best of luck.

Amber L Haden

We should send a message to the agent on the website just asking them to let Christine have the house.

Sarah Cortez

A little article I just found on some of the people that have lived in this beautiful home over the years. So interesting! https://www.google.com/amp/s/auburnpub.com/opinion/letters/letter-north-street-house-in-auburn-has-special-history/article_5c8cef11-4881-520c-b053-10072bef07ba.amp.html

caitlin interlicchia

My goodness! I'm sending all the good vibes and positivity your way! This house seems very fitting!

Brittany Toliver

Amazing! I hope you get it! :)

Rebecca Jones

Omg, this is the town my grandfather grew up in. His sister (who lived there her whole life) was an extreme antiques collector and going to her house was always soooooo fun for me to explore all the amazing things she has collected. So this is just so cool to me. I know you said chances are slim on this one but If only the sellers of this place could understand how absolutely amazing you could make this place 😭 it would be historic! Fingers crossed for you!

caitlin interlicchia

Wow, what a perfect fit! I sooooo hope you get it. I look forward to all the projects you'd share bringing her back to her original (but most likely better then before) beauty. Plus you'll have a place BIG enough to invite all us "patrons" to your very own Halloween party. Wink, wink, lol!!! ;)

Wednesday

like the castle in Germany

Janet Rugay

I was being so dead serious about helping with any projects necessary!! I live around 90 minutes from there but am very handy!!

Rachel Winters

Oh Love! This has you written all over it!!!!! May the powers that be make this possible if it is right for you! If not, something else that will EXCEED your expectations and wildest dreams will show up! Good things happen to good people💗

Dianna Roberts

I hope you get it. It is beautiful!

Britt Thompson

Hopefully you will get it, but if not, I am sure you will find one in the future.

From the Diabolical Den of The Donathans

This would be amazing! If it’s meant to be, it will be otherwise there’s something better waiting for you :)

Steven Gonzalez

What a strange coincidence. My father was just there and took photos. He said it needs a roof replacement and has structural damage. I have more photos if you’d like them, just message me. We are from Georgia but his wife grew up in Auburn so they recently visited. They noticed the house for sale while on their trip there.

Alexis Tucker

Everything!! :D

Christine McConnell

Hope it works out!

Michelle Pittman

OMG! I saw it when someone posted it here, and I fell in love, it's a dream house. It would be amazing if you get it, it would become the best version of itself with you living there (instead of becoming some commercial property or something where people won't respect it as much). Fingers crossed here! Best of luck for you guys! <3

Simón J.

The woodwork!!!! Dear god you can not get that craftsmanship today. The house could only be so lucky to have you own it! By the way, Auburn is very charming along with its surrounding towns, lived just 30 minutes south while we worked at Cornell.

Suzanne Zorich-Feathers

What are you going to do with 10 bedrooms?

Rachel Lopez

I just paid 650,000 for a house... nowhere near that pretty!

Branwen Frost

It's magic, this house is magic. I can see you on the front porch.

Jaime Lamberto

Gorgeous - character everywhere you look. That house would be so lucky to have you as an owner! Fingers crossed for you.

Megan Eppel

Christine!!! OMG Congrats if you get it. I was also looking for victorians back east. I found Warren, PA. I have done ABSOLUTELY NO research on this area or what it offers however the amount of victorians under $75k was shocking.

John Gardner

That house is a dream. I really hope you get it, but even if you don't, wherever you end up living will be the coolest house on earth after you're done with it.

Susanna Nebu

Fingers crossed for you ☺️ Good luck!!!

Randi Schmidt

The house looks great! Auburn is about an hour from me and is a beautiful area in upstate NY.

Mary Sacco

That’s amazing!!! Good luck!!

Veronica Diehl

I could totally see you living there I really hope you get it!

Sophia Z

This has your name written all over it!! I sooo hope you get this, and make a series on the renovation 😍

Brittany Paulson

I saw this house on oldhousedreams.com and immediately thought of you. :)

Andrew Schroeder

I saw this house and thought of you right away, I was one of the people that sent it to you. :) I'm so glad you like it

Marisel Lopez

This house would be lucky to be found by you Christine. Asking all the ghostly inhabitants to pull a few strings if they can and make it yours. Sending you much luck!

Sally Thorne

How beautiful! It totally looks like you! I hope you get it!

Cora Kathlea

Yay!!!!!!!!

M W

Was just looking at this home the other day, kismet.

Kelsey Hale

I SAW THIS HOUSE ON FACEBOOK!! It’s amazing and I hope you get it good luck!!!!

Sara

It’s so beautiful!!! Best of luck!

Jennifer Faria

I hope you get it! That’s across Cayuga Lake from me! This is such a gorgeous area. I think you’d love it! (Lots of theatre folks and makers so you’d have a great community of support!)

WaitWeCanChangeHowOurNameIsDisplayedWHAAA

Fingers crossed you get it!! A whole house fixer upper series would be SOOOOO COOL!!

Jordan Blanton

I too also wanted to add that if they truly look at your skills and who you are and what you do, they would be crazy to sell to anyone else. You would do that beauty justice and put so much thought and detail in to every aspect. I hope you snuck in your sites and talent for reference 😉💖

Micheline

Shew. Only a pic of the outside. That will be a major fixer upper. But if anyone can do it!!!!

Erin Anderson

This is the type of house that the show, "This Old House" would be interested in restoring. And, some restoration will be needed. Might need to fix up the carriage house first and live there until you can finish the big house.

Mike Lehman

Believe you have it....... Believe

Karmell Mazurek

Holy crap! Good luck!

Angela Jones

OMG it's beautiful! I'm so excited for you, Good Luck!

Jade

Did you show them what you do? The people selling it might take a shining to having the home go into the right hands.

Sarah

Crossing my fingers, toes and braiding my hair! It’s gorgeous!

Piper Dohring

Omg I literally tweeted this house to you just a couple of hours ago! As far as I can tell in the photos the structure looks amazing there might be a little water damage and mold in the green room with the small stains but the ceiling isn’t sagging at all so that’s a good sign! Soooo stoked! I hope you get it!

I very much suspect, based on its purchase history, that someone put a lot of money into that very new looking slate tile roof and repointed exterior brick and then ran out of money. But if that building is now watertight and sound, that purchase price is a steal, even considering the interior needs. A beautiful victorian like this really needs a dark mind like yours to do it justice. I’m so sick of seeing Victorians “brightened up” and painted beige. Good luck Christine!!

Brandon Grew

I saw this on CheapOldHouses and sent it to all my friends asking who wants to be my roommate. :) I really do hope that this becomes yours. Best of luck to you!

Oh my gosh this house is AMAZING! The things you could do with it!! Hopefully the person selling knows who you are and how well you'll take care of and improve the house. Just from videos, its obvious you care about the things you own and it would be in great hands.
