 Overview
 Description
Small farm house and a shed type building. No signs of previous discovery or visits. Totally sealed off, entry would be hard. It is on a road i couldn't find a name for that runs between Rt 68 and Rt 72. This road also conencts to Healy and Penny Road. It is blocked off on the portion between Penny and Rt 72. On the Penny Road side there is a pile of gravel, on the Rt 72 side there is a metal gate.

The house itself is in good condition, paint damage as you can see but after peeking in the windows the interior is spotless. Clean walls, polished wood floor, carpeting in some rooms, and a fireplace. As previously mentioned entry is more or less impossible without damaging anything. Windows are all intact and all doors are locked. The sheds around the house were well sealed also. The government property sign posted on the neighboring building threw me off, I'm not sure why the government owns this house, and apparently the road it is on. Nothing special, just a mysterious spot.
