124 Granite Street
Sold Aug 28, 2026
Sold for $35k less102 sq ft smaller$13 lower per sq ftFire damage and cash-only status
124 Granite Street is a clear fixer-upper that sold at a deep discount due to significant fire damage and financing restrictions. While 903 Nicholas Street is also a restoration project, it appears to be in much more stable condition and offers significantly more land with the included additional parcels. The higher price for 903 Nicholas Street makes sense given it doesn't carry the same structural stigmas or financing hurdles as this sold listing.
Bottom line
903 Nicholas Street is a more viable project for most buyers compared to the extreme renovation needs of this sold property.

1203 Dorsey Avenue
Sold Sep 30, 2025
Sold for $127k more474 sq ft smaller$78 higher per sq ftFully updated with modern finishes
This property on Dorsey Avenue shows what a fully renovated home of this era can command in the local market. While 903 Nicholas Street is much larger and sits on more land, it lacks the granite countertops, stainless appliances, and updated flooring found in this home. The price difference between the two highlights the substantial value added by modern interior renovations and move-in ready condition.
Bottom line
If you are looking for a project with high equity potential, 903 Nicholas Street offers a much lower entry price than this finished home.
- Sold for
- $227,000

714 Harriett Street
Sold Nov 20, 2025
Sold for $102k more262 sq ft smaller$54 higher per sq ftTurnkey with new systems
The home on Harriett Street is a move-in ready, single-story residence that has been completely overhauled from the roof to the plumbing. In contrast, 903 Nicholas Street is a two-story home that requires significant restoration to reach this level of finish. The premium typically seen for one-story homes, combined with the turnkey condition and new mechanical systems, explains why this sold listing commanded a much higher price per square foot.
Bottom line
903 Nicholas Street is positioned for a buyer who wants to build value through restoration, whereas this home was for someone needing immediate occupancy.
