1925 Bungalow. Corner Lot. Downtown Carrollton. $125,000.

A hundred-year-old bungalow in downtown Carrollton for $125,000, and the roof and windows are already done.

Built in 1925, this is the kind of house that has actual age to it. Not in a way that means problems, but in a way that means the walls have thickness and the trim has weight and the whole thing was built when people were still building houses to last. At 1,002 square feet across two bedrooms and one bath, it is not a large house. But the layout is what you would expect from a bungalow of this era, and nothing about it feels cramped on paper.

What matters practically is what has already been addressed. The roof is newer. The windows are dual-pane throughout, which means you are not looking at drafty single-pane glass that drives up your heating bill every winter. The bathroom has been updated. Those three things together mean whoever buys this is not walking in on day one making a list of what needs to happen before the house is livable.

The lot is a corner lot, which in a neighborhood like this gives you more breathing room than a standard in-row parcel. You get more yard, more light from two street sides, and generally a better sense of space around the house. Carrollton is a small city in Carroll County, and downtown is a short walk from here. There are shops, a grocery, restaurants, and the kind of functional small-town downtown that actually has things in it rather than just the memory of things that used to be there.

Missouri property taxes in Carroll County run low relative to most of the country, so the carrying costs on a house at this price point stay manageable.

At $125,000, you are getting a century-old bungalow on a corner lot with a newer roof, updated windows, a refreshed bathroom, and a walkable address in a real town.
