The Historic Ann Starrett Mansion

Could it be another haunted house? This 5,800-square-foot property in Port Townsend, Washington, still seems to hold nostalgia for the original owners, the Starrett family. In 1899, George Starrett spared no expense in building the monumental mansion for his beloved wife, Ann, and the couple lived there all their lives.

Their descendants continued to occupy the house, including their son and his nanny, until it was put on the market. After being purchased and turned into a bed and breakfast, it eventually closed in 2005 and remained on the market for 12 years. The historic mansion eventually sold for $775k.
