Digital Reporter
Thursday, May 15, 2014, 2:50 PM - It has seven bedrooms, five bathrooms and 69 windows -- and you may be able to own it for $1000.
There's no catch -- other than the fact that the house needs a bit of work in order to make it livable.
You'll need to replace the windows and have electricity and plumbing installed, but the house is sure to be a stunner once it's given a little TLC.
The 4,200 square-foot mansion is a Tudor-style home from the 1920s located in Boston Edison, an historic neighborhood in Detroit that's bursting with 20th-century homes and some incredible mansions.

The home is being put on the auction block by Building Detroit.com.
It's part of a plan to help boost the economy and bring people back to the nearly 80,000 vacant buildings in the city.
