Property Description
Sitting on 5 acres is an old almshouse built in 1900. You can bring your dreams and your manpower to this one, but it may not be salvageable. An almshouse (also known as a bede-house, poorhouse, or hospital)[1][2] is charitable housing provided to people in a particular community, especially during the Middle Ages. They were often built for the poor of a locality, for those who had held certain jobs, or their widows, and for elderly people who could no longer pay rent. They are generally maintained by a charity or the trustees of a bequest. "Alms" are, in the Christian tradition, money or services donated to support the poor and indigent. Almshouses were originally formed as extensions of the church system and were later adapted by local officials and authorities. (source: Wikipedia).
