This is an abandoned house located in Marks Township. The house is not far off the highway, but is hidden by forest growth and the driveway is quite grown in. I have driven past this many times and missed it. Today I was determined not to miss the obscure driveway. I missed the driveway and ended up parking up the road and walking a little ways through the bush to find the house.
The house is half-collapsed and not safe to enter. The interior shots were taken through windows or openings in the walls. The place appears to have been abandoned for several decades, many interesting possessions were left behind by the owner. I think the house was owned by one of the Cerutti brothers who ran a local contracting company. There is a main house and two outbuildings on the property. I will be going back to explore another structure north of this property once more of the vegetation dies back a bit.
