257 Upper Mountain Ave was a large Colonial Revival home on an acre of land.
The exterior of the home was wrapped in cedar clapboard and capped with a slate roof. The interior was equally simple.
The original portion of the home was built in 1889, with a large sunroom added to the right side of the building.
The home had an unremarkable history and was redecorated several times over the next century.
In 2021 the home was purchased for $1.25 Million. It was left vacant without a security system, so neighborhood kids started hanging out on the property.
They smashed a bunch of windows out which eventually got boarded over. The fresh plywood caught my eye while driving past, and before long I made a trip over to try and get inside.
I only made the one trip to 257, and only shot it on my phone. By 2025 the home was entirely gutted and reborn as a new modern dwelling.
