Photo 105-AKE-12

Comments

Corner of Neck Road (foreground) and Stanley Hill Road (going off to the left), China, ME. Address 351 Neck Road. The large barn to the right, as well as the smaller building to its right were lost sometime prior to 2010s, with the property receiving a major renovation sometime before 2011. The left side of the home looks much the same, however the front has changed drastically. A roof-width dormer/extension was added to the roof, the sets of front windows were converted to a trio of modern windows each, and the decoration around the original door was removed. The ell still stands and looks similar, however the shed door seen here has been converted to a large garage door. The circular drive has been removed, in favor of a simple driveway to the new garage door.

Around the house, the island at the end of Stanley Hill Road has since been removed, and the fields directly behind the house have been allowed to mature to a forested area. the field to the right is still hayed today.
