Extant refers to the status of a
house today, i.e., is it standing or demolished.
You can search by seven terms
that appear in the drop-down menu:
Unknown
- Information about the house is unavailable or unknown
Fully Extant
- The house stands completely intact as it was built, with no demolition
of any of its parts
Partially Extant
- The house is still standing and is probably occupied, but has had
wings or other sections demolished
Derelict
- The house has probably been abandoned and is in poor shape, but is
still basically intact Shell - Most of the house's exterior walls are still standing, but it has no roof. Ruin - Only a small portion of the walls of the house remain; possibly only a basement or outline is left. Destroyed - The house has been completely destroyed; no physical evidence of it exists today. These categories refer only to the house; many estates where the house has
been destroyed still have beautiful gardens, follies, and outbuildings
that are intact that are open to the public; thus, the sometimes
confusing listing of a house that's listed as being destroyed and
open to the public! Click Here to be taken to The Help Center Click here to be taken to The Database of Houses Search Page |
