JonBenet Ramsay House Back On The Market

JonBenet Ramsay's house in University Hill in Boulder, Colorado is on the market once again. Hoping for $2.68 million, which is within the realm of real estate values for neighboring homes also on the market, the troubled past of the 1920's Tudor style home is not expected to effect its ability to sell at a high price. It has been twelve years since the six-year-old beauty queen's body was found in the basement and since then the house has had a few more residents but none have stayed for very long. The 7,092 square foot, four-story house at 749 15th Street features grand old trees, stainless steel appliances among stark black cabinetry in the kitchen, and a master-bedroom with vaulted ceilings and fireplace. With the market a bit sour already it will be interesting to see if a home with an ugly past can keep up.

I am seriously disturbed that this would be considered a luxury home, considered its horrid past.

Considering its horrid past? I don't think it's a luxury home because it isn't that luxurious. However, using your theory, no luxury property which has ever had a tragedy, murder, suicide or other horrific event, can be considered a luxury anymore? I guess that rules out most of the Castles of Europe, the Sharon Tate former residence featured here on Luxist, most any of the historical estates with plantations in America and quite a few others, too numerous to mention.
