Foiled by a barn fire

I drove past this location, and noted the state of the property. An abandoned house and an abandoned barn. A few weeks later, I went with a friend to check it out and as we rounded the corner we noticed the state of the property was slightly different; there was an abandoned house, and and an abandoned barn that was most assuredly on fire. Flames just golfing, if you will ;) I think three firetrucks, an ambulance, and a cruiser or two were on the road, so we pulled over and watched it all go for a few minutes, before deciding we might be better off trying a different day.

I assume they just it go from the looks of it, although the silos mostly survived and it didn't spread to the house. The house was empty and in a moderate state, nothing really to catch the eye. The barn might have been the most interesting thing to see, with what I assume were livestock pens in lowest level. This was a couple years ago, and I think when I drove by last the house was now gone as well, although it was dark, so maybe I just missed it

I love the single dormer and the gothic arch.

Awesome shots, I love the perspectives you use- especially the last one!

It's a full door up there, you can walk right out onto what used to be a balcony. Didn't try it, hand rails were gone and I thought I would go right through if I put weight on it

I can confirm that this location is gone, it burnt down in July. Attached is an archived news article about it, which includes photos of the house post fire.
