1921 Worland Home with New Roof and Mini-Split Already In — $144,900

The two things that kill a deal on an old house are usually the roof and the HVAC. This one has both handled. The roof is brand new, architectural shingles, and a mini-split system is already installed for heating and cooling. On a 1921 house at $144,900, that matters.

The house itself is 1,248 square feet with three bedrooms and one bath. Built over a century ago, so you can expect the things that come with that: some wear, some quirks, the kind of woodwork and proportions you stopped seeing in new construction a long time ago. The agent description mentions original character throughout, which is vague, but it usually means the bones of the place read as old in the ways that people who seek out old houses are looking for.

The layout has the primary bedroom on the main level, which is practical. Laundry is on the main level too. The kitchen is described as spacious. The yard is fenced and has alley access, so you can get in and out from the back without coming through the front.

Worland is in north-central Wyoming, Washakie County, in the Big Horn Basin. The listing does not go deep on the neighborhood or the lot size, so those are things to ask about directly.

What you have here is a century-old house that someone put real money into before listing it. The roof and the mini-split are not cosmetic updates. They are the kind of work that buyers typically have to negotiate for or absorb after the fact. Getting them done at this price, in a house this age, in a state where winters are serious, is the part of this that stands out. The rest of it, the single bath, the 1,248 square feet, the age of the home, you go in knowing what that is. But the price reflects it and the updates are real.
