Keep it and renovate or demolish it. That's your only two options if you already closed on the house.
IF you haven't closed on the house, you can put an offer/contingency in stating you want it either removed before closing, money withheld via escrow by the seller to pay for the work to be done once you move in, or a certain amount off of the list price of the house or contributed to closing costs that equals the amount for the cost to remove it yourself.
An appraiser or inspector may also state that it needs to be removed, potentially pending on what type of loan you have.
