A really nice and really large home, brick veneer on conventional wood frame with carport and patio on a large formerly rural property. Surrounded by junipers and lots of brush its pretty secluded, actually its almost hidden. This property used to be huge and extended all the way to the creek may have been part of a ranch some remnants of outbuildings were found.

Roof joists and exposed eaves, wood paneling, lots of brickwork creepy silence and feeling of loneliness. This is/was a very isolated residence, not only could you do Satan worship back here you could stockpile Soviet warheads, train circus elephants, build an ice palace and nobody would know about it. Except maybe urban explorers..

Known locally as the "devil worshipper" house, I didnt find it to be all that Satanic when I visited, on 6/6/06. What I did find was a wonderful old house in the middle of nowhere in the middle of growing urban sprawl. It may have been sold or condemned for future development. You can see part of the tollway from here but you cant see any part of the house from the tollway. It is within easy walking distance of the now demolished Bush House see location http://www.uer.ca/...ow.asp?locid=24087 This was a really nice house before the vandals and scavengers began destroying it. Typical late 40s early 50s ranch style architecture, double carport, big veranda out back and some very old shade trees. Im sure there are untold stories about it. UPDATE: gone gone gone
