CNN)A house for sale in Vermont has everything a new homeowner could want: four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a nice backyard and ... prison cells.
The 2,190-square-foot home, located in Guildhall, Vermont, used to be the Essex County Jail, according to the listing on Realtor.com, and formerly served as the jailer's residence.

With the lot being a full acre, there'd also potentially be space to put some fenced outdoor play room for the dogs.
