After the adventure on the gates of the bunkers, we went to the outskirts of the town, where my friend said several abandoned one family houses stood.
And indeed she had done the location scouting very well, as we soon found two of them. They stood on neighboring lots, and had been abandoned for a very long time. Their windows were boarded shut already in Google Street View Photos from 2009.
Here’s the first one. It looks like it could crumble down any moment. Approaching it was pretty difficult, as the yard was so overgrown with trees and bushes, that there was no path to the doors.
The neighbouring one was a bit more accessible, so we started with it.
The stairs leading to the doors looked like they would soon collapse.
A funny detail was, that there were two doors to such a small house. Either there was a second apartment upstairs, or then the other one leads to the basement. Who knows.
I am not really sure what those metallic things are.
Unfortunately the doors were shut with a board. No access here.
After we managed to push through the bushes at the other house, we found an open door. Doesn’t it seem a bit strange, that there’s light inside a house with all windows boarded shut?
In the hall we were greeted with a flooding cupboard. This looks like one of the standard one family houses, where every single bought item has been saved for future use and left as it was at the time of abandonment.
The amount of light still looks a bit strange.
But this explains it. The only part left standing is the hall. The roof, attic and ground floor have all collapsed inside the building and all the way to the basement.
From this destruction it’s a bit hard to figure out what has been where.
But it is pretty apparent that the bed has fallen from upstairs. The rug is still on the wall as if nothing out of the ordinary ever happened.
Some upstairs furniture were still recognizable through the debris, like a clock and a carpet.
The kitchen could be faintly identified through the mess.
There was really no business further than the hall. Here’s the other side of it.
The fireplace has seen a lot.
Another look at the cupboard in the hall, which was actually quite cute.
And one final look from the hall towards the destruction. Judging by my photos the kitchen is straight ahead and the living room to the right. Behind them is one bedroom, the rest have been upstairs.
But that’s all there is from this location.
