According to resident Jenifer Lilley, her historic home is destroyed. Built at the bottom of a mountain during the 1800s, the house could handle a rouge horse and buggy... not the high speeds of trucks and trailers, Lilley wrote in a Facebook post. 

According to her post, the house has been hit 7-8 times in modern history and struck 2-3 times within the past three years. 

Besides the truck driver, there were no additional reported injuries.
