‘Little Couple’ Stars Win Big With This Week’s Most Popular Home
This week’s most popular home on realtor.com® is owned by the stars of TLC’s reality show “The Little Couple.” Interest in the home of the popular duo spiked this week after we reported they had put their Houston home on the market.
Jen Arnold, a neonatologist, and her husband, businessman Bill Klein, relocated due to Arnold’s new job in St. Petersburg, FL. The couple, who are both under 4 feet tall, had their Houston home renovated to accommodate standard heights. Not harmed by Hurricane Harvey, the home is still available for $1,225,000.
This week’s runner-up is a home built in 1850 in Stony Point, NY. The listing went viral due to the home’s storied past and amazing price.
The 4,656-square-foot stunner is listed for a mere $399,000. However, the faded estate, located just 40 minutes from Manhattan, will require a major restoration.
“The quality of the build is unbelievable,” says listing agent Adam Blankfort. The hope is that the next owner will be inspired to “creatively restore the faded patina of the past.”
Other most-clicked properties include a lovable mansion in Lubbock, TX, a charming Victorian in Pennsylvania, and a little red schoolhouse in Maine.
