And one can't help but wonder, if the SK is dead and every one who was
told about the secret dies too, does the house just remain in limbo,
forever inaccessible to all humanity?

Well, nothing illogical about it, of course. It just seems like it
shouldn't be allowed. In fact, Voldy could use this effect to device
the ultimate Hx hiding place: put all his Horcruxes in a house, make
someone the SK, kill SK, Voila! No one would ever find his Hxs again.
