The Jersey shore home in which Bruce Springsteen wrote “Born to Run” is up for sale. The Boss wrote, among other songs, “Thunder Road” and “Jungleland,” in the home during his time there from 1974 to 1975. A group of Springsteen fans bought the house in 2009 with plans to turn it into a fan attraction. It now lists for $299,000. “We’d been to a couple of auctions where people paid a ridiculous amount of money for a signed guitar. To me, the house is better than that stuff. It’s the place where he wrote Born to Run,” said one of the current owners, Jerry Ferrara. “We probably paid more than it was worth when we bought it because of what we call ‘the Bruce factor.’ We still think it’s worth it.” Springsteen has said that he wrote every track on Born to Run while renting the two bedroom cottage.
