FEBRUARY 2013 UPDATE: NOTE TO ALL: THIS HOUSE HAS BEEN MOVED AND IS AT ITS NEW HOME IN EAST TEXAS. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, YOU CAN FOLLOW ALONG ON ITS PROGRESS AT THE NEW POST LINK:
http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/snitz/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=61725
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THEIR INTEREST.
*****************************************************************
JULY 28, 2012 UPDATE: THIS HOUSE IS STILL AVAILABLE. I SURE HOPE THERE IS A FARMGIRL OUT THERE WHO WILL MOVE IT AND TAKE IT TO A GOOD HOME. OTHERWISE I WILL SOON NEED TO LIST IT ON ANOTHER SITE.
I have an old house in my pasture - circa 1901 - that needs to find a new home. It is a farmgirl's dream! I will give it to anyone if they will move it - the sooner the better. It would make a beautiful farm home! See for yourself - here are some pictures of the outside!
It is not currently hooked up to any utilities. The floors are solid hardwood and the walls are solid ship-lap. Most of the ceilings are tongue and groove. It has been wired, but the wires are just hanging below and in the switch boxes. The back porch has been enclosed (I would turn it back into a porch). Both front and back porch floors need replacing due to weathering. Roof is metal with 3 lightning rods.
Email me privately for more details if you would like to see it. I can also provide some pictures of the inside.

Thanks for everyone's interest. The new owners LOVE the house and will be working on it to restore it and live in it. More pictures will be posted soon.

Yes, I believe the new owners of the house have already moved it to its new location. There's another thread with pix of the move -- fascinating! |

I am wondering if this is still available! I have 2 acres in Rockwall and would live to come look at it if it hasn't been taken yet!

Keep up with the move of this wonderful house. You can subscribe to the new topic (http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/snitz/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=61725) so there isn't as much scrolling to be done. I thought this might be easier for all who expressed an interest in seeing the transformation of this house.

I will definitely post updates here. It will be about 15-20 miles from me, and I will be checking on its progress along the way. I also can't wait to see the finished product.

Hi there! My name is Emily and I am really hoping this house is still available...?! I had to wait a whole week before my registration to this site was complete...I was itching to reply!! If it is available, I'm very, very interested and would love more information. I've been looking for a farmhouse and this one looks just beautiful.
Thanks in advance,

I would love someone to save that house, restore it, and show us. Good luck.
