Property Description
Located at 844 1st Avenue in Gibbon, Minnesota, this 1915 four-bedroom fixer-upper is full of architectural character and possibilities for someone interested in bringing an older home back to life.
Inside, you'll find beautiful decorative woodwork and stained glass between the great room, dining room, and living room, a unique curved wall in the oversized kitchen, and a 3/4 bath on the main level. Upstairs are four bedrooms, another 3/4 bath, and a walk-up attic worth exploring. The unfinished basement offers additional space and bathroom facilities, while a detached two-stall garage provides room for vehicles, storage, and projects.
And don't overlook that original front porch! Its sloped floor is consistent with drainage designs common to homes of this era. It could use some restoration, but with a little work and a rocking chair, it's easy to imagine bringing back that old-fashioned front porch charm.
The home was occupied as a rental until recently and still needs significant work to modernize it. But some of the bigger, less visible improvements have already been completed, including a new roof and HVAC system. Recently cleared trees have also opened up the front of the property.
Let's be realistic. This isn't a weekend renovation project. There are repairs to make, updates to consider, and plenty of decisions ahead.
But there's something worth appreciating about a home that still has so much of its original personality, especially one with some of the larger improvements already behind it.
For those exploring fixer-upper homes in Gibbon or Sibley County, this property offers an opportunity to consider restoring an established home rather than starting from scratch.
Sometimes the home you've been looking for doesn't look quite like you imagined it would...yet.
