Another trip to Rochester means passing by one of my favorite subjects, the abandoned and deteriorating farmhouse in Ovid. There used to be a gable roof on the house but that has all collapsed. I forget how much of the roof was still sticking up when I last photographed the house.
It is nice that this early in the season, none of the trees have bloomed yet so we can see the building clearly.
The windows only look at the sky these days because the roof and floors and stairs have all collapsed inside. This must have been a lovely farmhouse with nice architectural details, and I would love to have seen it when it was it was new.

These abandoned homes are so sad. Once upon a time this was probably someone's dream home. It looks like it was interesting architecturally. Good capture.
This makes me so sad to see it deteriorating over the years. Do you have an address for this once beautiful farm house?

It's nice to follow this house over the years in your photos. It is sad that it has been abandoned. Looking at the house, I wonder who once lived here and what the life story was for the person or family. Trace
It is so sad seeing the decay of this house. Betsey
