Abandoned House, Norwich, August 2009

[manof2worlds]

This property is situated VERY close to my home. My beloved fruitbat11 and I moved into the area 3 years ago and the grounds of this place was being used by a building firm as a kind of storage area. Then abut a year or so ago they just stopped work and a large metal gate and fence kept the prying eyes away - apart from mine :icon_evil

The inside is a mess - there has been a fire here at some point n the first floor and the last inhabitant(s) were obviously elderly as there is the remains of a Stannah stairlift.

It was kind of weird to be in this place which was dark and forgotten, decaying badly, and yet over the other side of the fence was a brand new housing estate.

An indication of the property's age can be seen by some of the fixtures and fittings, really a case of stepping back in time from a certain point of view.

Enjoy

Makes me sick that anyone could damage a house like that, abandoned or not

Thanks for the comments guys.

@Mimble: the bathroom is stupidly big, and yeah, I want it too!!! The whole house is a good size and there is an extension that looks like it could have been a big games room or something.

The property has been lucky that kids and chavs etc haven't found their way in as yet, that said, even though it is in the city, it's kind of off the beaten trrack as it were. We live down the bottom of a long cul-de-sac and very few people realise our houses are there.

The kitchen looks very 1960s - 70s, & the bathroom a bit later.
