unreal estate

Need a Quonset hut? If so look no further - there's a hut for sale on the corner of Scenic St. and Detroit Road in the far western edge of Lakewood. I stumbled on this unique piece of architecture the other day while exploring that section of the city.

I spoke to a gentleman who lives near the property and asked him what the skinny was on the Quonset hut - turns out he actually checked in to the property a while back, thinking it might be an asset to own, but at the time the asking price was much more than he was willing to pay.

If his memory was correct, at $160,000 the hut seems pricey to me also; especially considering that the cute house below, on a nearby street is for sale for just $115,000!

Of course it is probably a matter of zoning - the Quonset hut is a business property opposed to a residential.
