Did some research on the property, turns out the circular structure was a house with a second story and a dome roof. It also had a second story deck off the back. It was built in the 1990s but it appears to have been vacant since at least 2006. It was gutted in 2022, when the property got a new owner. It looked pretty cool, and looks like it can be rebuilt with the existing structure.
