It was not listed with the house because its not up to code on anything and its kinda falling apart.
This is the main room. Its about 7'x15' . There is a cabinet and a primitive looking wooden counter. There is no insulation and you can see through the walls in some places. But its amazingly sturdy and doen't leak.
The floor looks like morter, which I think is a little odd
This is the (disconected)power. This is in the first room thats about 7'x7'. I think this is knob and tube wiring. The wiring starts outside (currently laying on the ground) and runs the length of the building and ends with an outlet, just above the counter, that looks like the oldest version of a powerstrip that I've ever seen.
Any input on what this shed may have been would be great. I think it may have been something like a summer kitchen that was converted to a workshop. We're going to use it as my "workshop" for little projects (after we run some new wiring), but I'm just really curious about what it really is supposed to be. There are square nails through the whole thing, all the boards are tounge and groove, and I found one peg outside on a corner. I thought it was a knot in the wood, but I chipped away the paint and it is perfectly circular and is right where the framing lines up for the corner. I have never seen anything like that before!

Hey every one! I'm sorry this is so hard to read, but I can't get it to reformat. No luck in the help section on how to fix it either. Getting ready to post in help discussion group, so maybe I'll get it fixed soon. Until then, it'll just be really hard to read :)
My best friend from high school had a building similar to that size on his farm that his family used as a shed, but was previously a bunk house for hired help WAY back in the day when the farm started. Just a thought!
We actually thought about that possibility.
