If a regular, four-sided house just won’t do, here’s your chance to own a historic, one-of-a-kind, 12-sided home in Northern Kentucky.
254 Latta Ave. in Ludlow boasts a dodecagon shape and was even mentioned in the Guinness Book of World Records and Ripley’s Believe It or Not!, according to the listing. The home was designed by the inventor of the first successful American steam fire engine, Alexander B. Latta, and built in 1900 by his son, George Taylor Latta. In 2013, the City of Ludlow awarded the home its prestigious Preservation Award.
Inside the home are a grand staircase illuminated by a stunning stained-glass skylight, several Victorian-style fireplaces and formal living and dining rooms. The chef’s kitchen features stainless steel appliances and Corian countertops. The four bedrooms are spacious, and there are two full baths and two half-baths. Outside, you’ll find an inground pool and pool house, along with plenty of trees and beautiful landscaping.
The home’s asking price is $529,500. For more information, reach out to Trina Ellis with Coldwell Banker Realty. Find the original listing here.
