A few weeks ago, I stumbled across this old abandon farmhouse in Rockwall Texas. I remember a few years back this place was still active as a farm. It’s sad to see another piece of rural Rockwall going away. It’s up for sale and its 40+ acres zoned for commercial. So, I don’t think it will be around much longer. It will be another section of warehouses or office buildings in the near future.
This house gave me the creeps and the vulture sitting on the chimney watching me the whole time I was shooting the house didn’t help. I do plan on going back with someone else. I get the feeling this isn’t the place to explore by yourself.
The Conditioned of the Abandoned Farmhouse in Rockwall, Texas
This gorgeous old house looks like it might have been abandoned 10+ years ago or it could have been abandoned just a few years ago and wasn’t kept up. From the front, it looks almost habitable. It even still has the old Christmas light strung up across the front.
Seeing these lights, it tells me that its somewhat of a recent abandonment. This style of lights has only been around about 10 years maybe a little longer.
As for the rest of the house, it’s in rough condition but it could be salvageable. The sides and rear of the house are in the worst shape. The original structure is in the best shape. It’s the additions that were added sometime in the future. Either way, the additions weren’t made to last as the original structure was.
From the looks of it, there might be two additions to the back of the house. The second addition was added early on the houses history that it looks like it could have been original to the house design.
The third part of the house was a more recent addition, and you can tell by the different types of wood used and how fast the decay is happening.
As for the inside, I didn’t go inside. It was pretty dark and many of the windows still have its windows and curtains. I do not plan on going inside the house like this are usually gutted by the owners or scrappers.

Haha, you’re right! That vulture isn’t letting you out of its sight! I hate those things, nothing adds more of an overall creepy vibe than a carrion-eating raptor, lol. This looks kind of near that Heath house. I really want to go check that one out soon. The land is still for sale. Glad I found your website! 🙂

This place is known as the Klutts farm. There are many rumors that go around town saying that it’s haunted. People are always saying that they see a woman dressed in all black on the land there and following their car. I don’t believe it, but hopefully you may be interested.
Hi Taymor thanks for visiting and commenting.
This isn’t the old Klutz House. That one is down the street and I haven’t heard stories of hauntings…
This old house is the Stringer House. They use to own the surrounding land still owns a large amount in the area.
Actually the whole woman following car is about the 666 house in Rockwall. It’s a graffiti coated place that is uber creepy. There are just miles of cornfields behind it and it is disturbing, especially at night.
I visited this house when visiting Texas from Michigan just a few days ago. What I saw there was un imaginable. I took a photo when we first arrived at the house before entering. I captured what looked to be a small girl staring at me through the window. While inside my uncle stood watch outside. He said he swore he saw smth in the window and we needed to leave right away. We left and returned a few days later. I needed to see if I could capture the same imagine of the small girl I spotted during my first visit.
The only thing we found when returning the second time was a covered up well. Appearing to be extremely old. I also found some old horse riding gear and a small holds very dirty blanket buried some what in the back yard. I would really like to know what happened here..
Shoot me a email if you’re interested in checking out the photos.
James – this house and land is in my family. Feel free to reach out via email and I can connect you to some folks who can give you a detailed history. Thanks!
