Waterfront Property

On the banks of the Green River in Greenfield, Massachusetts,
this woodland cabin is in need of major TLC...

along with the little shed that sits next to it.

I would like to know the story behind that neglect...it's of such a beautiful piece of property and seems a little dangerous to have been left that way. It does make very nice photos though!

I'm sure this was once a lovely cabin, but I don't think I could give it enough TLC to restore it to its former glory!

What a great setting, such a shame it's been allowed to fall apart!

Valerie said...

Not much left to care for. What a shame that it has been so let go. People own 'them, don't they? Don't they look after them?

I suspect the story is sad, that someone's life has come apart in the same manner as the cabin. And yet all of it is a natural part of life, isn't it? That's why so many of us see the beauty in this.

Too bad the old place was left to rot and fall apart. It would be such pretty scenery without it there.

They were great finds Sunny.
I would love to be there to explore.

I wonder if it used to be a deer cabin? That's cabins in the woods that are only used during deer season for the guys to go & sleep in. It sure has been neglected!

Great find! This home must have been charming during its hey day, but I think it's also beautiful as it is now.

Are you going to fix it up? Waterfront property is nice.

When I was younger, I would go explore things like that. I don't think that looks like it would be safe to enter. I see abandoned log cabins up on the north shore that have no roof, and one wonders how long it has been since it was abandoned and the history of it.

I bet you could get that cheap, but it would have to be torn down and something new put up. That certainly isn't livable. I'm surprised the heavy load of leaves didn't cause it to collapse.

Beautiful property for someone to renovate---or start over!!!!!

Is that tiny building the outhouse?

This is what my grandmother would call a "real fixer-upper!" Brings back fond memories of roadtrips with her -- we always were on the lookout for buildings left in shambles!

Lovely shots! When we were traveling across the country we saw so many abandoned buildings in the middle of nowhere. Our culture has changed so much and so many people have moved into the cities, leaving behind their homes and barns in the country. The abandoned buildings make lovely photos, but I always wonder what their stories are and feel a bit sad to see their neglect.
