Colchester, Vermont, USA, abandoned house, interior, it was really strange to see so much furniture & personal belongings left behind - as if the occupants left in a hurry, best seen in full view

Did ya grab the Atari on your way out? LOL

Great photo.

I have been in houses like this before. Usually out in the country. This one house still had mummified food on the table. All the furniture was still there. Clothes in the closets. The barn was still filled up with various items. Apparently, the owner died and he didn't have any family. The house & property was sold to another farmer and was never occupied again.

The new owner just wanted to farm the land.

Thank you!:D Ha - no, but if I feel an urgent need to play pong, I know where to go! That's really strange that new owner didn't bring an estate specialist in to auction off/clear out the property.

Nice photo. I love the composition.Was the rest of the house in a similar condition. You wonder what stories this old house could reveal if it could speak. No one will probably will never know. Great job.

Sorry for the last sentence. I guess I was overwhelmed by your photo or got tongue tied or both!

Thanks Melissa!:D The house was in bad shape, but fairly intact - I wonder what the story behind this is too!
