Is this house haunted? You failed to mention the small boy standing in the upper right window. Were there children in the house, or am I the only one seeing this.

I agree with your sentiment about getting rid of the old and not keeping them in good condition. I like old houses such as this and wonder at their history.
The boy in the window has a friend.
Good details and colors.

I'll have two shots of what their drinking so I can catch up and see the apparition in the window. A nicely captured and presented scene. Good composition, details and textures in the photo.

This is one of my Faves!! Thanks....

I hate to see the old places torn down too...much prefer them to the new...hope the restoration goes forward...lovely lush surroundings and nice capture of this old place.

I recall how my Mom would always point out old farmhouses and wish she could buy it and fix it up. I hope this one gets a facelift as well. Enjoyed this image.

Why, a little duct tape and that place would be good as new. I could live in it as is! I might take to cuttin' down the growth in the yard though. LOL. Beautiful shot, Marsha. I love this kind of picture!

No small task ahead then, Marsha. Old things, which really aren't old in the grand scheme of things, always have more appeal and often times were made with the greatest craftmanship and by hand. They lasted longer too. Please show it to us when it is restored.

Well done. The soft lighting adds to its nostalgic charm and the high grass heightens the forlorn look. Despite the thoughtfulness you put into this composition, preserving this house photographically will have to be magnitudes easier that preserving the actual building.

Wonderful find and this house would have been gorgeous in it's day. I see there are still power lines going to it.

Lovely clear of this old house, I wish the owner good luck in it's restoration it's gonna take a lot of tlc though.

Wonderful photo and what I like about this old house is all of its straight lines are mostly still seem pretty strong. It would be great all fixed up. Super color to the photo.

Looks fine just the way it is, ghost and all. ...Ed

Hello...This is a good closeup showing very good detail in this beautiful old timber house...I would love to have the chance to renovate the building and bring it back to its former glory....Well done....All the best to you..........Mick.

Feeling guilty for liking it so weathered, the way it is. Wonderful shot!

To bring it back to its old glory will mean completely rebuilding the house. Nice capture of this old weather beaten house.

All it needs is some old dogs and children and watermelon wine!

Ahhhh... Home! Simply an Outstanding find, and a Beautiful Structure...

marsha, this brings me way back, when i was a kid there was a house soo similar to this on the dirt road that led to my best friends house, it was on a field far back from the road called pelly's green, it always scared me, because i was sure i could hear voices and dishes rattling every time i passed by there, although when i was older i had the nerve to go inside through a boarded up window and peer out through the openings in the slats,i felt very nostalgic doing that, kinda like i was someone that had live there long ago,looking out over the green!pretty strange feeling looking at this, again!!!!
