The Skinny: This shambling single-family in Somerville's Spring Hill neighborhood was marketed as perfect for "contractors, restaurateurs and/or experienced buyers." Its Second Empire (the era and the style) bones need serious TLC, in other words. The listing also gave it the name "The Howe House," which damned if we can't find anything to justify that. Fill us in? The house was originally listed in November for $575,000, so perhaps the Somerville housing market isn't as overheated as some think.
