Lizzie Borden Society Forum

Is anyone interested in a piece of history. Currently for sale by owner at 995k. Pictures are online on Zillow and I can answer any questions you have. Many updates,but, still has the beautiful Victorian look.

What sort of history does this house hold? Can i see a picture of the house and maybe i can tell you afterwards what are my reviews about it. I want a picture of the inside of the house as well, i am a student and i have to write my university assignments so better show me the picture of the library and the living room.

Yes by all means. But it must have a billiard room with enough space for five pool tables adorned in period paisley wall paper. And a gift wrapping room for wrapping birthday and christmas presents. My wife has many friends since that December 2011 Playboy centerfold spread she appeared in. She's very generous. (but only with me. I have the videos)

The house must be by the sea, with a deep water port so my Serbian and Croatian friends can visit when the sailing vessel Belgrade Liner docks in the back yard. Does the place come with servants? Of course they must dress themselves in historical attire. It is also imperative that George Washington had slept there, at least twice. (provenance required)

Now if a double axe murder happened in the place you must disclose the information. Its the law. And the place must come with an Irish maid. Preferably from Ballinora, southern Ireland in Cork County. She mustn't weigh less than 7 stone and not more than 5'2 without heels. I don't want my bamboo floors pucked by Stuart Weitzman stilettos or any other brand. Also, I don't want any hauntings. The alimony and child support I pay my last two wives is haunting enough for me. And I don't even have kids. Oh yes, and the place must havre been built before 1775. I'm a Tory, you see, and I don't want any conflict with colonial nationalists. If you don't have a photo an illustration by N.C. Wyeth would be acceptable. No Picasso's, please, he draws crooked roof lines.

All kidding aside, I assume the building's that is for sale is the house where Lizzie stayed in for a short while, with friends, directly after the trial.

The price of the property reflects the real estate values of historical Newport, Rhode Island. No vinyl siding here folks. Removing the grass from the yard is a big minus. Makes it yard maintenance free, if that is your wish.

It appears that this property has been on the market several times in the past 6 or 7 years. If the info is correct you could have had it for 220,000 back in 2012.

And nope, George Washington never slept there.

Hello Danielle, welcome to the forum.

I've got my iPad up and running again so I can post the picture of 43 Farewell Street in Newport, RI in YELLOW.
I can't figure out where Lizzie was standing. I always thought it was at the end of the porch, but there's no "end of the porch." She definitely had her back to a wall, and it looked like a corner?

Is the exact location where the picture of Lizzie and the chair was taken known?

Kat -- I think the casing in the photo is for a window and not a door The photo fades on all sides, so she could be anywhere on the porch. Seems best options are where the two arrows point. I would vote for the spot between the window and the front door.

Gota visit it next time

I thought that was a corner too.
