Katie's house
April 2014

After seeing the first photos of this place crop up in February, I set myself the target of seeing it for myself, 2 months later and I've done it! I made 3 visits over the past 2 months, the first 2 needless to say were fails.
I returned for another, hoping that the old saying of 'third time lucky' would apply here and it did! My first solo explore in a long while and it was great!
It's difficult to describe this location without using the word bizarre, it's a grand building, I wish I could show you externals. Such an unusual choice of décor inside, not to everyone's taste to say the least, but a beauty to photograph. The hallway and staircase is just magnificent.
I was just about to leave when I realised I had almost missed the Octagon room, I have no idea how though..
Hope you enjoy the photos... Please excuse the fisheye, I just wanted to get all the epic in!

Spot the hidden door

The front door:

"I'm afraid Katie isn't at home at the moment, may I take a message?"

More excellent shots of such a stunning house. Has much been taken or is it still as last explorer pictured it?

Nice shots here, like the top of the stairs shot. Do you mean the hallway as in the entrance? As you didnt post it. I think its the best room here.

I went a few weeks ago and it still looks as wacky and tacky as when I went.

Congrats on cracking this one Dan. I'll even forgive you all the fisheyes, especially on the staircase shots which are awesome. Nice selfie too!

It is just all epic isn't it, theres no weak room in there!
Aces shots as usual, love all the eccentric touches, would love to have met the owners in its day!
Cheers for sharing!

There is, they've just not been posted by anyone
Here's one photo I didn't post because my light painting failed! Unfortunately I left my torches in the car so I was using my phone (doh!)

Yes, I loved that bit too, I didn't get any photos worth sharing from the entrance, though agreed it's one of the best bits. I realised when I got back to the car but decided to press on with other sites.

Thanks all.

Stunning location, I hope it remains in tact. Would be such ashame if vandals were to find it.

Great photos!

Dan, great pics mate. I have finally seen this place with my own eyes now! You done really well with some shots as some of those rooms are pitch black! Its so nice inside, a must see for sure

 

[MrDan]

Thanks all of you It's a great place isn't it. You need to get yourself a diagonal fisheye

 

[xNatje]

Your photos are so natural, but still great! You proove that a photo doesn't need much editing to be great.
Also: great location!
