Lovely home, but…Chicago.
The doll room is very creepy.
It’s beautiful. But I wouldn’t live in Chicago if they paid ME 10x that amount and let me piss in Rahm Emanuel’s face.
It’s in Joliet about 45 miles from downtown Chicago. I checked the place out on Google maps street view… looks like it’s on a pretty nice street. If I had to live up in that area, I’d consider buying it and living there. I have no fear of ghosts. It’s the living who cause all the problems.
Looks like the perfect place for Lurch “John Kerry” to move into, along with as many “Addam’s Family” Progs as can be crammed into it. Then to bar the windows & bolt the doors, so they can’t escape.
How racist!
People won’t buy the place because of spooks?
I’d buy it if they’d let me add some appropriate period functional antiques. I was thinking about four M1917 Browning machine guns for starters (one on each corner of 3rd floor or roof). I’d be willing to use Gatling guns if the local historians don’t approve of early 20th century machine guns on a late 19th century house.
Even if it wasn’t in Shitcago, I wouldn’t want it.
If that shot of the staircase is recent, it looks depressing as hell.
I’d give a hundred bucks for it if I could remodel with dynamite.
Haunted, shmaunted. I wonder what it would cost to heat that place in the winter?
Even Steven, You’d be surprised at how ghetto that neighborhood is. About 4-5 blocks to the west, you might be OK. I Used to drive by there daily, if you look to the northwest about three houses. That’s a ghetto convenience store. I’ve seen more fights and weird shit while stopped at the light going west on Lincoln at Hickory than Obama lies.
Just because several dozen dead people still actively vote from that address doesn’t mean it’s haunted.
It’s on the register of historic places, a sure-fire lead weight on the value of the property. If some airhead preservationist gets your place declared historic, of even drums up the possibility if such a label on your house, you’ll have a much harder time, or may even find it impossible, to make significant improvements. And you won’t be able to even think about tearing down the rickety, drafty, ramble of a wreck to build a decent modern house.
