I would have loved to get out and walk around and take lots of pictures but there was farm equipment stored here and I was not sure if the owners lived right across the street from this place and were looking out their windows watching me ;)

Rusty roof and worn paint...I love it. The neighbor may not, but I do. Nice find Tanya, just what vI look for. Thanks for sharing and I hope that you will visit again.
ReplyDeleteWhat a grand old place. Too bad you couldn't get a closer look!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could see how it looked in its glory days.
ReplyDeleteA great find and a treasure for sure! I'd love to explore it some more too!
ReplyDeleteOne wishes it would have been better taken care of.
ReplyDeleteCool old building
ReplyDeleteI understand completely. I would have wanted to get out and walk around too, but not at the risk of someone coming after me.

ReplyDeleteWhat a find. Maybe you can go back and get permission to photograph it. I'm sure the owners would be delighted. Nice to see the old building still standing.
ReplyDeleteOh my, what a lonely and sad picture. It must have been something in it's heyday. And double chimneys! That was quite rare. Reminds me of the song "Gulf Coast Highway". I guess it would take lots more money to restore than to tear down. Poor old house.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this house. Wow....
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute house. I love the porch, the angles on its roof. Someone's pride and joy at one time.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, I like to explore to but not if I think eyes are upon me :) This is a lovely old house, and I bet it was gorgeous in its day.
ReplyDeleteGreat find. Must have looked beautiful once upon a time. I too would want to look around too!
ReplyDeleteVery cool house! I like the porch and the dual chimneys!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful old house, I bet in it's day it was gorgeous. I love the little detail on the porch.
ReplyDeleteNice place. You could have used it for the October "abandoned" theme.
ReplyDeleteA famous old house! Reminds me about some nouvels...
ReplyDeleteHi, Gal...I have been flat since last Wednesday so have not been on computer. It is my back again. Anyway, I got up this morning and there the pier of paper was....that house was the old Phi Kappa Psi house across the street from City Hall and the Police Station. The problems finally been solved. Hope all is well in Roanoke and at home. genie
