Description
In 1979 retired upholsterer, John Milkovish, started hanging ceiling attachments, patching fences, and tacking the sides of his house with empty aluminum beer cans. Unbelievable? The staff of Ripley's Believe It Or Not thought so as well and featured the house on the show. Other interesting characteristics added over time are the success ladder to the stars, the marvelous marbles address sign and the bucket faucet connections. It is definitely an interesting site to behold. Admission is not necessary. Simply drive or walk by and have a look.
