Danby, Vermont – $695,000
4 Beds, 4 Baths, 3,600 Sq Ft, Constructed in 1872
To be honest, a tad more dilapidation might just catapult this 1872 beauty to a whole new level. But as it stands, it underwent a complete renovation in 2014 (which I’m sure left the resident ghosts somewhat disgruntled). Nevertheless, it retains its wonderfully eerie Victorian allure. That extraordinary turret, in particular, is quite captivating.
Claysville, Pennsylvania – $495,000
5 Beds,4 Baths,4,015 Sq Ft, Constructed in 1880
If you’re in search of your very own eerie time capsule, look no further. This Victorian marvel is a complete mystery, boasting an impressive combination of a mansard roof and tower. What sets this 1880 gem apart is its exceptional condition, unlike many of the aging mansions you find in the area.
Lockport, New York – $99,999
5 Beds, 2 Baths, 2,214 Sq Ft, Constructed in 1852
And the winner of this year’s spookiest basement award is…
I must confess, the realtor’s warning of “ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK. SOLD AS IS, adds to the terror of these rooms. The admonition to wear gloves, mask, and boots” doesn’t exactly instill confidence. The unsettling presence of a vintage baby stroller in the basement adds to the eerie ambiance, making it seem like something straight out of a nightmare. However, this mid-Victorian is a treasure. With over seven acres of land, it holds the potential to be a fantastic investment for the right buyer.
Port Townsend, Washington – $1.5 million
11 Beds, 10 Baths, 5,796 Sq Ft, Constructed in 1889
Aptly named “The Grand Dome,” this architectural marvel is the epitome of the Victorian era. If the dizzying spiral staircase doesn’t ignite your imagination, I’m not sure what will. I can easily envision a ghostly figure gracefully descending it in the stillness of the night.
The Takeaway
In this eerie realm of homes with intriguing histories and atmospheres, one thing becomes clear: real estate is not just about bricks and mortar; it’s about stories and the emotions they evoke. Spooky homes for sale offer a unique opportunity to own a piece of the past, whether you’re seeking a thrilling adventure or simply appreciate the charm of aged architecture.
