This abandoned tenant farmhouse was draped in wisteria. I stopped immediately to photograph. The wisteria will eventually win, but for now, it’s an asset to spring’s awakening.

This farmhouse is curious. There are five doors. Was this a house only? Or was it converted to a rural hotel or apartment? My assumption is that all these doors aren’t original.


A dogtrot house consists of two rooms, one for living and sleeping. The other was used for cooking and dining. The large central breezeway would help circulate air during the hot summer months. The name dogtrot stuck because dogs (and other animals) could run through the open-air space with ease.

This Queen Anne Farmhouse was built in 1905. The crosses in the double chimneys are an interesting touch.
