Virginia City Spite House

As the story goes, there were two miners in Virginia City, Nevada who were sworn enemies. After one miner bought a plot of land and built a small white house with lots of windows so he could enjoy the sun and warm breezes, the other miner decided to exact his revenge by buying the property next door, and moving his already-built red cottage just inches from the other miner’s home. Across the street from Anabelle’s House.
