The current landlord for this property is kind and is more willing to pay for replacements on the home which I believe is mainly because she used to live in the home so I didn't really need to spend much for any problems that arrived other than minor things the home is over 150+ years old so it has its quirks.The tough part is that I am paying a bit more in rent for this home but it has a lot more potential than my other unit, it has a good-sized backyard which I'm debating on adding a hot tub or a fire place but seems like a fireplace may be better maintenance and cost wise.

And they had taken the kitchen cabinets apart and burned them in the fireplace for heat.....I salvaged some and painted over the burn marks, didn't look half bad....ya can't make it up, right?

I have pulled a permit for removing a fireplace, but probably would not have but I had a significant remodel going with permits and did not want hassle of him making an issue of removing the fireplace (the inspection for fireplace removal consisted of only verifying gas cap was in visible location, he did not even spray it).

The chimney contractor replaced the cap, but requires the branches be trimmed before he can perform repairs on the chimney because it is still leaking into the fire place after the cap was replaced. 

I looked at something similar about a decade ago which was some camping log homes in upstate maine which was a beautiful place but the place did not have power (only generator) and heat was via fireplaces.

Haven’t discussed pricing yet but probably won’t get as great of a deal on this one but it is a beautiful log cabin with big windows and fireplace overlooking the water.

It's oftentimes the small details that get overlooked - light switches, lighting, trims, closet doors, and if applicable fireplace mantel...Also don't forget about picking a harmonious color palette!

I forgot to mention the chimneys/fireplaces are not operational and will only be kept for cosmetic purposes, and I don’t want to spend the money to completely remove them.  

He suggested repairing the fireplace bricks, redoing the bathroom floor, vanity, all doors.

Each unit is 2 bedroom, 1 bath and has a fireplace.
