703 North 7th St Cambridge, OH 43725











No idea where Cambridge Ohio is.
(editing to add that I went to the almighty Wikipedia to find out. It is a 7 hour drive from Hoboken NJ & about 2 hours from Pittsburgh, PA)
I LOVE this house! Holy SMOKES...It looks like it's been on the market for half a year or so now. Wonder how much wiggle room the owner has with the price.


 The Gross Mansion, a stately Tudor built in 1921, occupies a city block in a quaint, historic neighborhood. The amazing architecture & detailed interior is just waiting for someone to return it to its former glory.  Multiple alternative uses including B & B, school, rec center, or upscale offices. A 19k sq.ft. rec center attached; may be removed as part of an acceptable contract.  Alternative uses subject to proper zoning approval.
