Description
A single-story house with blue siding is shown in a state of disrepair. The roof is partially collapsed, exposing internal structure and rafters. Windows are boarded up, and the surrounding yard is overgrown with vegetation, including a large bush obscuring part of the front facade. Wooden support beams are braced against the front of the house. The driveway and lawn appear muddy and uneven, and scattered debris is visible near the front entrance. Trees with early autumn foliage frame the background.
