tons of toys, old stereo, albums, other personal times lying around, in relatively good shape. Stuff dates back to fifties, sixties, and as late as eighties. Has a finished basement that looks like it was done 50 years ago.

Lots of childrens' toys all over the house and old pictures of the family dog. magazines from the 1960's. Full of leftover junk; the floors are just covered with personal effects the owners didn't remove with them. Many items from the sixties, seventies, eighties latest. Hunting through this stuff is more than half of the fun! House has been abandoned for quite a while, and remained relatively untouched.

The house looks quite old; presumably it was buiilt wayyy before Taunton rd was a megalith of a street. The owners probably left after (or maybe when) Taunton grew and expanded. This probably also why the house never got sold; the house is too close to the busy road, with no buffer whatsoever.

Probably will eventually be demolished to make way for a new housing development (as usual). However, it IS really close to Taunton Rd (like, ten feet back from heavy traffic). So that might not happen for a while.
