    Here's more pics of my neighbor's summer homes. there are 5-6 more homes on the estate but three of these are the main house. the other one is my favorite though.

      where is this? and why are they all boarded up? Would love to peek inside those houses!

      hi hunter. this is where i grew up in northern new england. i don't want to be specific, because the place is not ours. it belongs to our neighbors who have owned the land since 1805. all of the homes on the estate are summer homes which is why they are boarded up.

      Why not just ask your neighbor? You have pictures of his house ask where it is.

      that makes sense - I remembered that you're in the bay area (as am I), which is why I was curious if this was in California. So they board them up for the 9 months of winter and then unboard them for summertime? Wow. Habits of the rich and....rich. ;)

      OMG, I so want these houses..It looks like a good place to film for movies or tv shows..

      i live in the bay area, but i grew up in northern new england. i don't want to tell my neighbors anything. there are a lot of them, and some are paranoid about publicity of any sort. plus, this place has been robbed many times. i remember when i was young, they were robbed of 5 rugs, worth 1.2 million dollars - back in the 70s. people from hollywood have tried to purchase or rent this property before and they never even got callbacks.

      I don't mean to be rude, but its this publicity? I don't think they would be too happy if they see that you took pictures of their homes and put it on the internet..

      understandable :) the boarding up part is fascinating to me though, being a person who only lives in one house. Is there not a caretaker during the winter? or even a gardener/landscaping person?

      yes, userh6478. you are probably right - but that's why i don't want to discuss the location. there are caretakers who live on sight and they are friends w/ my family. i was w/ them and one member of the family who lives in another house on the property year-round when i took the pictures.
