Fixer Home in Midtown Sacramento is Rare Deal

By
Real Estate Agent with Elizabeth Anne Weintraub, Broker DRE #00697006

Who does not absolutely love a 1915 highwater bungalow with original features? Raise your hands. OK, the rest of you can leave the room, LOL. Because I want to talk with potential buyers who see the beauty and feel inspired to tackle a job like this one. Much of the hard and expensive work has already been completed, like raising the entire house to allow for a 9-foot ceiling height in the lower level.

You can read more and see all the photographs in my personal blog today at this link: Unique Highwater Bungalow in Midtown Sacramento for Sale.

Hi Elizabeth -- I don't believe I have heard the term highwater bungalow(I'm assuming it's a regional river related term) but it certainly seems like this may be the ideal opportunity for the visionary homebuyer.   I'm sure you will be able to find a few of those hanging around but as we know, it's only takes one.   Here's to finding the right one and very quickly too.

Good morning Elizabeth. This one is just a little too far away for me, but am sure there will be many takers. All the best with the sale.

Michael Jacobs We call them highwater bungalows because prior to 1915, before the levees were built in Sacramento, it routinely flooded. So homes were constructed with the living space on the second floor, about 6 feet high from the ground. They stopped after the levy was built.

Joe Petrowsky I hear ya, I kinda want to tackle this job myself. There is something about the smell of fresh 2x4s waiting for Sheetrock that makes me want to pick up a drywall gun and go to work.
