Listing for all-black 'goth home' in Illinois goes viral

Dec. 27 (UPI) -- An unusual properly listing in Illinois is going viral after the pitch black house was dubbed the "goth home" online.

The Zillow listing went viral after Twitter account Zillow Gone Wild, which curates unusual home listings, branded it the "goth home."

The listing for the home at 110 Edgar St. in Lincoln features photos of the black house with an all-black shingle roof, black gutters and black vinyl siding.

Realtor Seth Goodman said he bought the octagonal house in August 2021 and decided to go for the black theme after the installation of the roof.

The listing also reveals Goodman had the interior walls painted black to match the exterior.

Goodman said he has received a lot of interest in the unusual house, but he has grown attached to the property and is considering keeping it for himself.
