 Overview
 Description
Essentially it's a BIG OLD RUN DOWN HOUSE. Expect it to look like that. The floors and stairs are all pretty old school heavy wood, and I'm sure that were there still railings on the stairs they'd be pretty hefty. Last I was there all staircases were still sturdy and complete. Good luck getting in though as it's all boarded up.

Status: Demolished

     Interesting Features
    This place has been locked right down. every opening is pretty much reboarded except one second story window. When it was still open the basement was very interesting as the stonework dates back a good number of decades.

    Now demolished due to fire set by arsonist.

     History
    As most abandoned houses do, this one carries the traditional story of 'Dude goes crazy, kills family, hangs self in barn, Hilarity ensues'. Not quite so, I work with a woman, though I hesitate to call her that, who claims her Aunt and uncle owned the property untill they passed away a decade or so ago. No way to confirm this story, but it's somewhat more believable.
