Good looking house. Straight lines.
Some of the good things about old houses:
They have history. Fun to research.
They are usually built on the best lot on the mile.
They have alot of appeal (to the right people) when they do sell.
Don't be afraid to offer much less than they are asking, especially after you get a roof and HVAC estimate in hand. You will need to replace the windows, too.
The bad part is you can sink alot of money into it without it appreciating. Because of the layout, the size of the windows, the lack of closet space, these only appeal to the adventurous.
Another bad thing is distributing the cold air from the AC into the far reaches of a unusual floor plan. Tough to get return air back to the furnace.
Good luck on your project.
