If I wasn't creeped out by the dead vibes, I'd buy it. It's quite spacious for a rowhome.

Google Robert Wone. His killers got away scott-free. And moved to Florida...where they bought another house together. *shudders*

We looked at this house back in 2008 when it was on the market but ended up buying a different home a few streets away. I'm not one to be superstitious but...this house has been on the market a lot since then. More so than your average rowhouse.

That said, I like the reno for the most part. Some weird design elements, though. And the back is tiny.

Don't miss this chance to own a piece of history!


I use dot read that website avidly. Daily. I'm surprised this hasn't been made into a high quality long-form podcast (like by one of the big guns, wonder and the like), actually, the website has done all the research.

But the murder guys don't own it anymore, right? It's already been sold once?

Oh, for the uninitiated- google who murdered Robert Wone.

Interesting - I love most of the design elements. The 'hidden' powder room, the kitchen (which is tiny) is immaculate, and the backyard is the type of entertaining space that people in D.C. crave.

The one thing I don't get is this weird sink/wine area in the kitchen. Can someone explain this?

looks like they turned a pantry into a strange wetbar.

It's gorgeous. If I were in the market in that price range I would have a hard time turning it down simply due to the history.

Based on a podcast I listened to, I think the murder occurred in one of the rooms on "upper level 1". It's also suspected that someone used a hose in the back yard to wash off blood. The details are so creepy.

And a really heavy s&m house.

Awww page 19 is staged with a crib! /s

Does price still own it?

Ha, the wet bar is one of the things I liked! but odd bc it's so close to the kitchen.
