I've no idea what this building used to be. Perhaps a local telephone office? Dentist's office? Town doctor? Now it's someone's home. The bicycle outside and a quick glance at the interior furnishings through open curtains on a stroll past say it is a home with younger children, and one of modest means. There's nothing wrong with that, but seeing the condition of the building and its roof has me hoping the family is doing okay.
We're still in the middle of a housing crising in this country and the smallest communities are not exempt. Lots of places that should be boarded up are being rented out instead.
I hate it.
