It’s so grandiose and nearly covered with ivy during the warmer months. Now that it’s winter, it’s easier to peer into the windows and imagine how charming it must have been in its day. There are two other abandoned houses within walking distance of this one.

Airy. </span> <br /> <br /><span style="font-family:arial;">I moved back to the east coast about 5 years ago from California and I've always been fascinated with the old buildings and architecture of this area. Mainly, abandoned houses and other objects that are left behind. It seems that the occupants have simply vanished and I wonder what stories lie beneath the ivy and decay. I enjoy exploring these houses and their grounds and decided to keep a photo journal of my experiences.
