3. The Thomas-Clay House
Where: Georgia
1893 is the year.
Price: $1.3 million
Though it may have faded since its heyday, this mansion was once the center of Georgia’s elite society. William Howard Taft, the 27th American president, is thought to have lived on the site frequently in the early 20th century. Even though it has subsequently collapsed, the house’s previous opulence is vividly remembered upon closer inspection.

The great staircase at the heart of the home truly draws attention to itself and holds the spotlight. Magnificent woodwork and antique details create a harmonious blend between an opulent residence and a family home. The mansion was sold for more than a million dollars in 2022 by the family of the original owner, despite its dilapidated state. Imagine what it could become with some renovations if it can fetch that much money in its dilapidated state.
