A search party was dispatched and discovered his remains inside his favorite ramshackle house. There was talk of taxidermy, but instead, a concrete statue of a white goat was placed on his favorite hillside. Kappes takes a photo for me out her window.

There's also a large mirror atop a wide fireplace, and seating areas throughout the room. "The vanity, dresser panels, and ceiling trims and moldings were all hand-carved by the artisan wood workers at @herculesfurniture here in Los Angeles. ❤️" she added. "The goal is to make every corner of our new house with artful intention and create a space that will continuously inspire our family for years to come." There's also a large mirror atop a wide fireplace and seating areas throughout the room. Additionally, there is a hidden bar with hand-carved walls and the aforementioned secret door, which leads to the backyard.

A few weeks earlier, Von D also hinted that she might be opening a tattoo shop in the small town. The property is also home to 11 bedrooms, ornate bathrooms, an antique library, a blood-red pool, and more. The regal decor is mostly seen in the sleeping area, where there's a black, raised platform for the bed and a golden canopy above it.

It measures 12,565 square feet and is "gated and secure," according to the Sher Group, which is now the listing agent for the property. The space has been "fully renovated in keeping with the home's original style," according to the realty group, and has a secret door inside a "hidden bar with hand-carved walls." It measures 12,565 square feet and is "gated and secure," according to the Sher Group. "As some of you know, we recently purchased a beautiful home on a bit of land in rural Indiana, and the more time we spend out there we realize we feel more at home there than we do here in L.A.," she wrote on Instagram at the time. Heartbroken but undeterred, Smith has more goats on order.

Death, seemingly, is a larger obstacle to Facebook fame than being a goat. Kappes points out the Catholic church, which holds Mass, oddly enough, on Saturday afternoons when a priest comes over from Madison. The Indiana mansion also boasts an original slate roof, an Inn Keepers apartment and more. Between the six bathrooms and two half baths, the home includes five original copper lined bath tubs. KAT Von D is now the owner of a $1.8million “haunted” Indiana mansion after she left California with her family.

The Victorian home, which is nearly 13,000 square feet, sits on a 26,966 square foot lot. It was moved to its current location in 1915 by Van Nuys' son, J. The tattoo artist, 41, first listed the unique home for a cool $15 million in January 2022, and later cut the asking price to $12.5 million in June of that year. On March 28, the highly personalized property officially sold for $7.75 million, PEOPLE confirms.

She dropped out of high school and tattooed full time. In 2005, she joined the TV show Miami Ink, which led to her own show, LA Ink. From there, she launched a cosmetics line, three books, a shoe company, and now an album. Online, he saw that the Frederick Grisard House, designed by Indiana architect Francis Costigan, was for sale in Vevay.

Today it showcases bold spaces with chandeliers, ornate fireplaces and stained glass windows across 12,500 square feet. Spanning over 12,000 square feet and sitting on 10.6 acres, the tattoo artist’s new home features a four story tower, a widow watcher attic with three round dormer windows. This hamlet of 1,700 Hoosiers nestled along the Ohio River made national headlines last year when celebrity tattoo artist Kat Von D announced she was leaving Los Angeles and moving here. Von D saw the town’s historic 35-room Schenck Mansion online, flew in, and purchased the Second Empire–style castle filled with antiques for $1.5 million. Highlights include a living room with hand-painted ceilings and a dramatic dining room with intricate woodwork.

Elon Musk recently announced he would be moving his Tesla factory to Austin, listing his final home for sale. Gene Simmons put his longtime LA home for sale to move to Lake Tahoe. And Matt Damon listed his LA home for Brooklyn. About 14 miles out of town, I pull over, curious about what there is to see at this particular mile marker.

The property also includes a two-bedroom carriage house atop the garage. Vintage lampposts, custom statues and manicured gardens surround the home outside. Even in Windsor Square, a neighborhood filled to the brim with some of the city’s finest pre-World War II architecture, this three-story Victorian stands alone. The dramatic mansion is owned by tattoo artist Kat Von D, who just listed it for $15 million.

The regal decor is mostly seen in the sleeping area, where there's a black raised platform for the bed and a golden canopy above it. Its walls are lined with linenfold paneling, the windows are made from stained glass, and a fireplace warms the room. The tattoo artist and singer explained that she plans to sell her Los Angeles home, close down the LA shop and likely open a private studio once the renovations on their new home are finished.

"Tyrannical overreach?" one person wrote. "Try public health crisis, and CA has some of the highest numbers of COVID across the country. Ridiculous statement." On Facebook, where Von D also posted her statement, some people pointed out that California is currently facing a COVID-19 crisis, much like the rest of America.

As we pull alongside an abandoned house, Kappes recounts the legend of Fred the Goat, a white, hornless, 4-H runaway with a Houdini-like talent for escaping fences. Fred climbed trees, licked salt off the road, befriended deer and horses. Some claimed he looked at them with mystical intensity. Then, in fall 2013, the regulars at AJ’s Diner worried they hadn’t seen Fred around.

Steamships were gradually phased out all the same. Still, Vevay remained lively into the 1960s with hardware, clothing shops, and confectionaries, Bladen says. But by the 1970s, with the advent of shopping malls, chain stores, and the highway system, Vevay’s Main Street, like so many across America, dwindled.

The upside of the downturn was that Vevay’s housing stock remained largely untouched. The town is in the National Register of Historic Places, boasting 275 historic buildings on 100 acres. Additionally, the home includes four porches, seven balconies, eighth chimneys, 13 fireplaces, more than 50 windows, 35 rooms and seven bedrooms. "Definitely not ever selling our beautiful home in LA," Von D wrote.
