Abandoned house

My friend showed me this cool abandoned house. It's been standing there alone for years, probably more then a decade. I wonder why.. It's a very beatiful house (atleast it used to be!). And there's a lovely little pond too. I would love to live in a house like this. Well, after a very radical renovation.
I like to go into houses like this, though they scare me a bit. We didn't go in 'cause the door was locked, and we didn't want to break any windows.















If you like houses like this one, check out these 100 abandoned houses.

  1. Oh, I can imagine how this house looked like in its glamorous days.. Looks beautiful, there's something exciting about abandoned houses, and in "ghost cities" too! It's nice to imagine the story of the house, what kind of people have been living there, etc.. Very nice!

  4. Looks like a very beautiful house.. Large too! I'm not an expert in architecture but I'd say it looks pre 50's

  7. What a lovely house that must have been. It is a shame it's gone into such bad shape now.
    I love abandoned houses too! They lure me in to see what treasures they might hold inside, but usually they are locked and I don't want to break in just to see a glimpse of empty rooms. There are several of those in Tampere area that we have seen during our geocaching-trips. Why oh why can't I go in!?

  10. Ihana talo! Vaikka mun talounelmani on jo toteutunut (1800-l rakennettu talo järven rannalla), on mulla jatkuva kiinnostus näihin ihaniin vanhoihin taloihin ja siihen mitä niistä voisi saada aikaiseksi...vaikka omakin peruskorjaus on vielä vaiheessa...Luulen, että usein näissä hylätyissä taloissa on taustalla perikunta, joka ei ole joko saanut aikaiseksi -tai raaskinut- myydä taloa, mutta kuitenkaan eivät ole kunnostaneet sitä rahallisista tai muista syistä. Hölmöä, mutta varsin tavallista :(. Täytyypä tutkia tuota antamaasi linkkiä ja antaa mielikuvituksen lentää =)
