Plot: This A-frame home features a large wooded lot, a pool, large rooms in an open floor plan, a finished basement, a high-ceilinged living room with a beautiful fireplace and a spiral staircase leading to a office loft. Removing excess furniture, photographs and knick-knacks, a little painting, repairing a hole in the kitchen linoleum, and repositioning the furniture gave this 1970s house a whole new look for a mere $140
