Abandoned waterfront home on Holmes Point
Grass growning inside a waterfront home.
Grass growing in the same room. Need to mow the carpet.
This is a one of the first interesting things I saw as a Realtor back in 2003. I was previewing properties on the waterfront and came across this teardown house. Someone had built the basement of their dream home and then ran out of money. They put a makeshift roof on the structure probably 20-30 years before I got there. I believe once they gave up their dream, they used the property as a rental until it was finally abandoned later on. This was for sale for $950,000. You can imagine my surprise when I walked into this room and saw grass growing out of the carpet. Notice the lamp is plugged into the wall still. I ran home and grabbed my camera. I thought no one would believe this without seeing it for themselves.
