The Charles Williams House, dating to the mid-19th century, will be the site of an estate sale on Saturday.
Fair Haven officials expect to hold a final debate and vote next Monday on whether to float a bond to buy and raze one of the oldest homes in town to create a riverfront park.
Meantime, on Saturday, the owners of the house built by free black man Charles Williams in 1855 are planning to sell its contents at what promises to be an unusual yard sale, redbankgreen has learned.
Sue McLaughin, the broker who’s handling the expected $1.2 million property sale to the borough, sent us this in an email today:
