CHARLESTON, South Carolina (CNN) - Magoline Hazelton is used to people driving by her home just to take a look. She's also known as the "house lady" by her fellow residents in North Charleston, South Carolina
From the outside, Hazelton's home doesn't seem much different from the rest of the neighborhood. But there's one big difference. Her house is made from cargo shipping containers.

constantly changing her hairstyle.
Anne Frank hid with her family in a secret room at her father Otto Frank's office in Amsterdam.
