I know a secret...


If you act now, you can own a home in North Bethesda with its very own slave quarters. Yes, the cabin pictured above was the former home of Josiah Henson -- the slave whose 1849 autobiography was the model for Harriet Beecher Stowe's classic novel (and hair band Warrant's early 90's hit), "Uncle Tom's Cabin."

So what would you expect to pay for a house like this? Granted, a personal slave quarters is priceless, but this house is just an example of the rediculous real estate prices around here. Any guesses?


It is listed at $990,000.
