This Octagonal 1914 Home in Washington Is Almost Too Cute
Some houses whisper. The Gallaher House, an eight-sided gem in Bridgeport, Washington, has been shouting quietly since 1914 — and Reddit is fully charmed, driveway opinions and all.
Built as a Wedding Gift, Still Standing Strong
Completed in 1914 as a wedding gift, this 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath octagonal home was relocated to its current lot in 1993 — irregular shape and all. It's officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and inside, a grand spiral staircase anchors the home as its architectural centerpiece.
A Shape That Just Fits
The home's eight-sided footprint plays surprisingly well with the irregular shape of its .43-acre lot — a detail commenters kept coming back to. Updates include a 2018 roof replacement, fresh interior finishes, a refreshed kitchen, and a newly built two-car garage, all without sanding down the character that got it landmark status in the first place.
