1903 HOME STILL FLOATING... MAY FIND LAND
The yellow cottage pictured above spent many years adjacent to the Palm Beach Country Club until its owners sold the land underneath it to the golf club in 2011. The country club earmarked $10,000 for relocation costs for the "Stambaugh" cottage, so named for the descendants of Orrel Gleanson Stambaugh, the original owner, who is best known for engineering West Palm Beach's first roads.
A local contractor donated the barge the house is currently standing on. Family members are reported to have found a vacant lot for the cottage. Perhaps this house has found a home!
