We're talking a bed in the dining room, particle board–covered windows, missing ceilings, and a basement that adults and children alike would be scared to enter.But according to the listing, it's got "potential", you just need to look past the chaos to see it. What was once probably the dining room. You'll definitely need a strong stomach and positive attitude to navigate the "needs TLC" part.The one and only bathroom that is missing part of the ceiling. From the photos, there's a lot of work to be done if you're going to keep the original structure. An air-conditioning unit is balanced over the stairs. But if you dream of being a handyman, a builder, or a renovator with a boat load of optimism, this could be a gre...
