*Update - I found out today a little about this place. It was old man Sumblers house and is the original Sumber family home. The man lived here alone into his late 90's and only ever used 2 rooms of the house. He never had a bathroom and had little to no plumbing. Unfortunately he sounded like a poor old man who lived alone in his own filth. He would apparently walk down the road into town and was often drunk and stunk so bad the neighbors hated (although out of kindness they did) giving him a ride into town when passing him by on the road.

Old farm house on sumbler rd. Newer fencing around the house and barns looks to be a containment fence for animals. A few barns on the property that I didn't get to explore. The newest looking barn looked as though there might still be some activity and it smelt like animals were still out in the barns so I stayed clear. Nice little place still has some neat object left inside. Smelt like raccoon upstairs and you could hear them in the ceiling or walls. Some people might not feel comfortable inside the house with out a mask on.

Thanks to Ground state for pointing me in the right direction for this one :)

Awesome find! I love how open the whole house is. Probably not for much longer, but nice to see a house with access from every possible door and window! The natural light makes for great pictures too.

Neat to see that this place was so full of stuff - with such openness to the elements, you would think it would be not much more than an open space.

@ superss, interesting examples..vivacious virtuoso voluptuous vixens. Perhaps Animal House is an appropriate name for this location in more ways than one haha
