The blue sky is beautiful.
What are the small buildings in the background of picture # 1?
Could the property have been part of a movie set or small, cheap hotel? The
small stones used in the driveway and the relatively small stones used in the
back wall of the house, together with the thin walls make it seem as though it
was almost made to fall apart quickly. The depth of packed stone, if any,
under the thin upper layer of surface stone in the driveway might also indicate
quick construction. In the 4th picture, the third story arch looks like it was
built around six vertical steel rods. I think that would also imply fairly
recent construction methods. Very Interesting. Let us know what you find out
about its history.

You see lots abandon farmhouses in the countryside here, but this was
clearly something bigger. No idea of the story behind it.
