I wonder if the house is still there, bricked in forever..

Where else would it be? I suppose it might've been shipped to the middle of the desert in Arizona, as such things are, but it seems unlikely in this case :)

I assume the alternative would be that it's been filled in, or bomb damaged and filled with rubble.

I kinda want to go down there with disc cutter and a new door. That is some prime location property.
