Home of notorious murderer Lizzie Borden up for sale

After Lizzie Borden was acquitted of the brutal 1892 murder of her father and stepmother in Fall River, Massachusetts, she moved into a mansion that is now up for sale for $850,000.

For anyone who is into living in homes with a dark past, it should be noted that this is not the home where her parents were murdered in 1892.

That was transformed into a bed and breakfast. Because nothing says rest and relaxation like a house where two people were killed.

Borden’s home, which is called Maplecroft, is 4,000 square feet and has eight bedrooms, six fireplaces and three and a half bathrooms.

After her parents died, Borden and her sister inherited her father's money and moved into the house, where she lived until she died of pneumonia in 1927.
