Have vertigo? Then this home for sale in West Virginia isn’t for you. See why

A lovely, serene-looking house for sale in Parkersburg, West Virginia, is hiding an interesting feature inside its walls that you don’t see every day.

The 3,876-square-foot residence built in 1978 — and is listed for $260,000 — has a tower-like feature inside the home. While it can be somewhat seen from its unassuming outside, glancing up at it from the inside is an entirely different ballgame.

“ONE OF A KIND.... Tired of touring cookie cutter homes?” the listing on Zillow.com asks. “Welcome to 96 Oakridge Drive. Offering unique distinction from the inside out, this 5 Bedroom 3 ½ bath home will delight with its intriguing design features. A turreted entry boasts beautiful slate floors and a floating staircase that looks like it leads to the sky.”

The floating staircase inside a fairytale-like tower looks like it could be part of a Manhattan penthouse, with its art-deco appeal. Though, it’s probably not best to feast your eyes on it from directly under it if you have vertigo.
