Because it was widely known (and published) that Ackley believed thehome to be haunted, and therefore had created a stigma around the property, Stambovsky won the suit and was allowed to back out of the contract — the home officially dubbed “haunted” under the law.

Located at 1 LaVeta Place, this spirited Queen Anne Victorian home is located on the idyllic Hudson Riverfront. Boasting 4,628 square feet of living space, the property includes five bedrooms, five bathrooms, stained glass windows, arched doorways, a three-car garage, a sun room and a saltwater pool overlooking the river.

According to Weber, none of the home’s past three ownersreported seeing any ghosts. In fact, she says, most Nyackers find the fact that the home is legally haunted simply “amusing” — herself included.

“This is the third time I have had the opportunity to list and sell this home, so I’ve logged a lot of time here, Weber tells PEOPLE. “If there’s anything I’ve felt, it is the warmth and creative spirit that exists in this beautiful home. I’ve never experienced anything that would lead me to feel it’s haunted.”

It seems the home’s past residents agree.

“I absolutely adored living at One LaVeta,” Michaelson told theNew York Post. “It’s a magical home. It’s a memorable home. It’s a home where people gather, it draws you in and comforts you. And the view is unbeatable.”

“I moved back to the area from Los Angeles and after touring for the better part of ten years,” Matisyahu toldThe Journal News. “When I stepped out onto the porch I looked out at the view and immediately felt this was the place for me to live with my three boys and create my next record.”
