The town has been empty for two decades and the quaint little property looks like it's straight out of an American fairytale.

You're probably thinking there's no chance you'd ever be able to afford a whole town.

Well think again, this one is up for sale for the surprisingly low price of $1.9 million (£1.47m).

So what do you get for your money?

The old mill town was founded in 1802, so many of the homes were built in the Victorian style.

The town has passed through different hands.

An eccentric millionaire rented it out for a Billy Joel video and then a hotel management group took it on and now it's up for grabs once more.

The mill is gone, having burned down back in 1972, but Johnsonville still has a post office, a church and a bank.
