Cobain’s mother, Wendy O’Connor, is putting the tired, 1.5-story bungalow two hours southwest of Seattle on the market this week
In this photo taken Monday, Sept. 23, 2013, Dann Sears, curator of the Aberdeen Museum of HIstory, stands in the tiny garage of the childhood home of Kurt Cobain, the late frontman of Nirvana, in Aberdeen, Wash. Cobain's mother is putting the tired, 1.5-story Aberdeen bungalow on the market this week, the same month as the 20th anniversary of Nirvana's final studio album. The home, last assessed at less than $67,000, is being listed for $500,000, but the family would also be happy entering into a partnership with anyone who wants to turn it into a museum.Elaine Thompson/The Associated Press
