description: The original house had been abandoned for years and was overgrown with vegetation. The neighborhood christened it the Possum House after the latest inhabitants. |
|
description: The front porch was not original to the house and had been constructed over the years from miscellaneous leftover building parts. |
|
description: The side elevation showed evidence of a porch or bay that had since been removed. |
