The sign went up today. 306 French Street, the former home of Lizzie Borden and her sister Emma following Lizzie’s acquittal for the murder of her father and her stepmother in 1892, is once again for sale.
Last August, the sale price was much lower. In the $600,000 range. Now it is a whopping $885,000.
In my opinion, the house is over priced by at least $300,000. But then, you are buying a piece of history. So give the owner a call, set up an appointment, and tour Maplecroft (with the intent of purchase, of course). 508-673-8088.
