So much potential…
About a year ago – I was headed through Monroe Washington where I get my little Charlie groomed! I pass by many beautiful and charming homes, but this one in particular house has caught my eye. I kinda fall in love with “potential” and what possibly was the history of a home…& what stories the home would tell if only it could talk.
Every time I drive by this sweet cottage, I slow down to almost a crawl so I can peek at every inch possible. It’s set on a corner with a split rail fence between the street and the home with overgrown shrubs and grass and a beautiful field all around it. I never have seen any cars there & looks like it’s been abandoned for quite some time.
I finally got the courage up to stop and park and explore. I of course first went up to the door to see if it was occupied. A note was taped on one of the doors noting to contact the agent if one would like to see the home and grounds. I peeked around it myself & let myself inside any open doors I could find. This beautiful home was once loved and I still can see so much potential.
The home itself looks like it had been added onto.
the back area looked like it had a pantry to store canned foods maybe and a door that led out to where old yeller would stay.
This is the back side of the house where there is a fabulous upper patio that overlooks the pasture areas.
There are three outbuildings on the property. One was a very large horse barn / stable area, why I only shot the roof of it is beyond me….it looked massive!Another outbuilding was this sweet looking building – I assume a garage of some kind that hosted cars?
This one is an old coop – no locks on the coop itself – just too cute for words… Fabulous set up w/ all sorts of great places for the chickens to roost and be safe.
Hope you enjoyed peeking about a little taste of rustic dreams…Thanks for visiting & check out to see where I am linking
up to this week!!!!

It's a very charming property, love the chicken coop and the garage. It appears that it needs a family to move in and fix her up to all her original glory before too many years pass, or she may just end up a falling down wreck, which would be so sad! You are right, she had a lot of potential!
Best,
Kimberly
I hope you friend is doing well. The new treatment sounds positive. I wish her all the best.
I wish it were mine. In fact, I think I just cried inside a little.
