A Small Loss on the Aiken
The Aiken estate in Savannah, Georgia, takes us back to the late 19th century when the notable history of this mansion began. At the time, this home belonged to Dr. and Mrs. William Ford Aiken, parents of Conrad Aiken and three other kids.
Twelve years before dying in 1973, the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet was offered the opportunity to live in his folks’ old house. His famously tragic life must contribute to why no one wants the house. Believed to be the most haunted house in Savannah, it was initially priced at $1.24 million. The home sold in 2018 for $1.15 million, according to realtor.com.
