Amazing Abandoned Stone House - The Church Abandoned It

- Its not too uncommon to find an abandoned home off a country road. What is uncommon, is to find four abandoned homes off a country road within a few hundred feet of each other. Originally having plans to explore as many as we could, our filming got interrupted towards the end of this video. I did learn some info about the property so stay tuned until the end. Enjoy
Please Note: Exploring Abandoned locations can be dangerous. I don't condone or encourage anyone to enter an Abandoned structure. Not only is safety a concern, but often times its illegal and when possible, i seek out permission. I simply go to document its history before it's gone and leave things the way I find them. I assume all the risks & responsibility in doing so. Please don't attempt to do this on your own.

I ask that if anyone knows this location to please not share it publicly. They don't want random people showing up. Thank you.
JPVideos its my dream house. Its so sad because I don't have money or skill to fix it up.I am addicted to your videos even though I hate seeing so many abandoned places. Somebody who needs a home could love it. Oh well. The playground is great too.
I filmed around a very old abandoned school with an old merry go-round
Erin Bricker - Urban Historian id like to watch it.
I was watching your videos and a friend came in here, watched with me and said, "Is this what beautiful, strong, American men do on the weekends?" \O/
I cant speak for all men, but its what we do.
When people pass on and leave their beloved home to a community church it should not be left to be abandoned, rot and decay. These people could have left it to someone who would have appreciated it and given it the respect it deserves.
Gloria Hanes I don’t think this was the case. Seems like a rectory. Maybe the lost it to the bank?
Amen this is one of the biggest crimes I have ever seen.
With you we get to see it all and not in a hurried manner. Thank you very much! Wonderful house & property.
:)
Beautiful crocheted throw ( looks like the "granny square " pattern ) at the top of the porch steps. Too bad someone didn't appreciate the many hours of work it took to create.
:)
Ones with black background are pricey now. Think Roseanne show couch.
The piece of furniture you thought might be for the bedroom is actually a dining room buffet (server). Love your videos.
:)
also called a sideboard, or a hunt table. it was used for self service and to store linens and larger china pieces.
Am I the only who thinks...."take those drawer pulls since you aren't taking the furniture!" jkjk
I've got one that's almost a replica, so you're quite right. The same side doors, small top drawer has felt lining and the larger bottom drawer. I have the matching China cabinet and table bought from an antique shop in the mid 90s, I believe it to be from the 1930s approximately. It was one of the few things besides the house that caught my attention. I'm a hopeless lover of older buildings, furniture and anything that has history behind it. I couldn't help sharing the little I could.
That is a beautiful stone building and stones is a rule don’t fall down so I would hope that someone would buy the building , gut the inside and rebuild something nice. It would be a shame to waste such a beautiful stone structure
:)
Something about locks outside of doors gives me a big feeling of creepiness.
I totally agree, There was way too many locks on outsides of doors for normalcy ...its always church related properties with locks on the outsides of doors too
The steel door with padlock that could lock the entire second floor still puzzles me, but seeing it was church related any kind of bizarre my have occurred. It's a fantastic house, such a shame it's having neglect damage.
Well as he states it was used as an admin building so it probably empty at times. From the sounds of it the whole property was probably not lived on or used on a daily basis. They also might have used the house for cumunity functions or rented the basement out for events and stuff. So it makes sense certain parts would be locked. Especially if there were valuable or sensitive items like records and stuff like that. The bedrooms with padlocks were probably some sort of storage at one point. I would have like to know what was behind that nailed shut door though lol.
Sinister stuff was going on upstairs, a steel door with a padlock on the outside says people were being locked up on that floor, those 2 doors sealed up screams secrets of the churches on goings. This house is full of bad, horrible stuff.
yeah..that! I get a bad vibe, who knows what went down in that house.
I think they came in and dropped the ceiling, paneled the walls and added bathrooms to make this into a community church with lots of classrooms. Closed up some doorways to make the classrooms bigger. Thanks for allowing me to tag along. 🙏🏻 I think the area where the large kitchen is now has been enlarged by knocking down some walls and taking over the dining room to fit their needs for serving meals to many people, like a church congregation. Thank you for the video. Enjoyed much. ❣️
JP, in this video you showed a piece of furniture and asked, "What is that? A dresser?". I'll tell you I think it is called a buffet and was used to store linen, flatware, and dishes. You could set the table from there - bottom drawer for linen, long top drawer for flatware. and dishes on the sides with doors.
The bloopers /outtakes at the end must remain a tradition!!
You will see more in the future.
As a retired pastor, it reminds me of some kind of Christian retreat ministry.
Nice building outside, but the inside seems so cold; almost sinister.
The light switch is a Religious coat of arms, which church I don't know. However, it is definitely is not Catholic. I am thinking something out of the mainstream. The table in the room with piano, is a sideboard table usually found in dinning rooms. The room at the end of the hallway with the fire place was the master bedroom, when the house was actually used as a house. The reason your not seeing any light fixtures in the downstairs rooms, is because drop ceiling where placed in there when it was converted into office space. That paneling was also probably put in then too. You are right about the closet being cedar. Those upstairs rooms where used as sunday school rooms,maybe daycare. I am pretty positive by its set up it was all so used as a religious revival camp. That second set of steps you came to upstairs probably lead to the original kitchen. Very common for houses of that age. I bet, that house was beautiful in and out when it was first built.. The family that built that home were definitely not poor. To bad it was left to rack and ruin.
I have a weird reaction to some of these videos. Sometimes I could almost swear that I can smell dust, mold and general rot. And I find that eating -- even snacking on something -- is right out of the question while viewing these. Things don't taste right and it kinda rolls my stomach a bit. Love the videos tho.
I have the same reaction. I guess I've been around these places so much. I can imagine the feeling of old plaster bits when I see him walking. I love how much these videos feel like almost being there though. These are the only I've found this realistic. JP if you see this, thank you again you have a gift with capturing the exploration on video.
Me too!
Same
Guys you might be empaths. Check that out as there are many important parts to be and live as an empath. Good luck.
Same!!!
I always feel a bit of sadness at how these properties are left to rot.
Out of some of these abandoned houses, I do like yours as you dont whip the cam around, nice and slow and steady. I get motion sick very easy, most others I cant watch. Two thumbs up.
Thanks lorie
This house has a beautiful architecture. I think it is sad to see an abandoned house when so many people have nowhere to live. It's that kind of thing that has no explanation.
Hello from WV! LOVED this video...the piece of furniture you called a dresser is a Dining Room Sideboard/BUFFET. The home seems to have been built around 1900 and is very much like one I lived in! The home's design is one that used every inch of space for living and yes closets and storage! There is a chance that the woods used thruout are chestnut which was in abundance at that time. Our home also had those same doors, light fixtures and funky closets in closets! Nice find!
Thanks, I was trying to remember what it was called. We had one in our dining room for 13 years, until we moved to a home where the non-load bearing wall between dining room and living room had been removed to make a living room 18x22 feet. We put the dining table on the end of the room near the kitchen doorway.
That is truly an amazing site. If it wasn't in such disrepair, it would totally be worth flipping (& if it was privately owed of course). Honestly, I would knock out walls that weren't weight bearing & redo the entire place - but keeping with the previous theme of lots of closets!!
Love the outakes😂😂. Thanks also for talking. I like to see what you’re looking at and your thoughts. Great video😊🤗
This house was so much larger than it appeared from outside. Every video you capture the experience of the exploration so well. This was a great find.
I was surprised as well by the inside.
That was a beautiful home at one time, before it got desecrated with the hideous 70's "updates": wood paneling, ugly dropped ceilings and icky carpet. What a shame. That elongated "dresser" downstairs was a dining room side board cabinet. You got lucky that the guy that drove by passed thru after you had gotten out of the house ; ) That's always a sinking feeling when exploring an abandoned house and you get "caught" even though you aren't really doing anything wrong. I've been there. They always assume the worst thanks to all the vandal types.
We said the same thing. 10mins earlier and we would of been caught. Sadly vandals give this passion of mine a bad name. I'm hoping to lead by example on how things should be done.
The 70s = the ugliest decor and style ever!.
You need respirators. Going in those moldy asbestos covered older buildings can cause lots of problems later on. Love your explores! This one was very interesting. Really sad they just left it to rot!🙁
We just bought some, so we are good now.
JPVideos good! That makes me happy! When i see the places you explore, i hold my breath! Glad you got those respirators!
Sassy Sue agree you need those!!
What if I put on clean underwear?
Sassy Sue I was thinking the same thing, and don’t forget there is probably lead based paint too.
nice find. Fun to imagine what a house would have looked like before the tacky wood siding, false dropped ceilings, etc. A lot of time, effort & $$ went into this once grand, custom built old house.....spacious rooms, high ceilings, the remaining sideboard which would have been in dining room. Very sad to see water intrusion, which seems to mark the beginning of the end & condemns the place...rules out restoration
This is a gem! Quite old home renovated a while back. Solidly built. Great old doors! So many architectural features I love. High ceilings. Quite large. A great find and explore, jp!
If you apply latex paint over oil base paint the latex paint will always peel. Years ago, only oil base paint was used to paint with until latex was developed. It is getting harder to find oil base paint because it is not as environmentally friendly. To fix these doors, strip off the oil and latex paint, then wipe down with paint thinner, sand with a 220 grit sandpaper, then prime with Kilz and repaint with latex base paint.
Thank you! Will this work on oil paint on plaster walls, too? The towns these houses are in should develop land banks to scoop these gems up before they go to ruin.
Yes, on plaster walls as well just forego the paint thinner (not necessary). Scrape off all the old paint (wear a mask), then go back with primer to cover the oil base paint then apply the latex paint.
Thanks, Gloria!
I was thinking the same when I saw the doors. Kindred minds Kilz is my go to problem solver for so many things. The memories of stripping and sanding, I feel my age just thinking of it. I still love a good project though.
2007 does not sound that long ago to me.. until you said 11 years ago.. man I am getting old. lol. love that mirror in room 18. wow i love the look of the basement..
I am thinking private church school for troubled kids,,,teens, or
learning center for church disciples, door to door knockers.
that was a cool find.
We're getting old
Good deductions! 😘
& awesome find JP!!
Rehab Restore Recycle Recreate Renew to Rejuvenate & Rejoice!!!👍 💖 😍
I always think the same thing when someone mentions the year 2000. That feels like it was just yesterday lol
So sad there so many homeless people and that is such a beautiful home, so many rooms that could be filled up with a family. Sometimes us Americans don't make sense.
pennellkay I agree but in the same sense how many homeless people are too disabled to work. You idea won’t help them.
pennellkay It’s not always that easy for the disabled. I know because I’m disabled and trying to get disability services for a neurological/auto immune disability is beyond difficult. I’m sure those aren’t the only disabled people that suffer. I am currently doing solo porn just to make ends meet.
pennellkay It’s not just the mentally incapacitated that have trouble. I’m talking about chronic degenerative illnesses. Such illnesses in which you have a plethora of symptoms which by itself, one would still be able to work but accumulated is another story.
pennellkay and frankly people with this mindset, that the government helps or will help the disabled, is the reason why so many of us are so fucked.
Ptubes, just curious. Is that actually making ends meet? I know theres a huge market for it but are you online or making movies. Just curious.
Hi, JP and Mike! I love this property! I can tell it was a beautiful place in it's day. I always love to see wood paneling made of REAL wood and not the fake stuff. This place had a lot of the detail from days gone by that are so beautiful - the old woodwork, old stye doors and doorknobs, old timey large windows, the stair cases, just awesome, and the grounds were lovely. It scared me when that guy suddenly showed up lol, and glad he didn't give you all a hard time. It looked like that place was very hot, and had a lot of things not good to breathe in - hope you guys are okay after that one, looked like a tough job filming this awesome place, and thanks again! Continuing to work my way through all your videos and my family and i are truly enjoying them. We alll loved your live video from our old hometown of Rochester, NY! Thank you for bringing it to us live - so wonderful!
It was hot and challenging, but rewarding afterwards.
Awesome explore, glad you didn’t get in trouble being there and cool that you got some additional information on the place. Thanks for sharing. Only thing is that I wish you would wear a mask in the molding places so you don’t hurt yourself in the long run. Thought it was a awesome explore! Gave thumbs up as always! Bloopers at the end always funny!
This reminds me of an unwed mothers home, or children's home/orphanage.
Neat video!
What I’m thinking it might have been built as a retreat home. Many churches hold retreats for a week or two and this kind of reminds me of a place that I had gone on a retreat many years ago.
Good possibility, wish i thought of that when i filmed this.
I just started watching you and have gotten obsessed! Keep showing us these places. I feel as if I am there!
That's beautiful to hear the robins in the back ground
I love stone houses. They outlast wood by far. And thanks for updating at the end of the video. I hope all works out for you and other explorers concerning CZcams.
It would look like a very nice peaceful place to live I don't know if the house is savable the basement looked very bad but great job showing it you are very appreciated
:)
Sure is a nice house and would be nice renovated. Thanks again for a great tour JP.
:)
Hi JP. Nice find, thank you for sharing. Much love and be safe.
Love that old house, nice chairs scattered around. Its so sad when it deterioites so much. Some one can still use those chairs, I don't understand, but I love old stuff, its better made and still it means well with someone that can use it. Nice house in its day. Thank you so much. MJ
"people have been complaining about me checking out the toilets, so I'll do you all a favor and won't check it out this time". Now would have been the PERFECT time because you might have found some "holy shit"!!!!
Hahaha
Hahaha
In another video he looks under the lid and he goes ‘someone left a surprise’
A good find, sure a beautiful home back in it's time, lots of rooms for a large family which would be cool. Basement was awesome quit large, uniquely layed out. Its to bad the house is dying, but its beautiful and I can imangine antique furniture in the house. Great find. Thank you so much, you find good treasures. MJ
Must have been absolutely stunning in its day. Love the front porch. Thank you for sharing.
Hi JP, this is a cool older house. If someone would have done something to it before it got so bad, it probably would have made someone A beautiful place to stay. But due to some decay and Man, it's in total disarray. That's really sad. It could have been beautiful.☺️. Thanks so much for your time and sharing of the details. Have a great day ☺️ 🖐️✝️🌹 🌹. Oh yeah, it's kinda creepy Too 😀 🖐️.
Oh I loved the bloopers! Please include them in future videos. What a great peace of property. Using my imagination to see how it looked when it was first built and used.
The piece of furniture that you came across at 6:07 is traditionally called a buffet. It is typically found in a dining room and would store tablecloths, silverware and things of that nature.
Beautiful place so many rooms must have been really nice back in the day. Look forward to seeing the other ones. Great job as always.
I am so glad I ran into your channel this month. Its by far my favorite for exploration. Thank you for sharing all of it with us!
Im glad you found it too bethany! 💙
Very cool explore guys , what a spot , what a waste !!!! , enjoyed the vid , keep it up .
Two thumbs up, JP! A very interesting house and property, and thank you for enduring the heat upstairs in order to show us everything. The playground equipment looks pretty old. I’m wondering if the house was ever used as a residential building for disabled children? So many bedrooms they must have been used for people to live in at some point in time. Battered women? Juvenile delinquents? Kids with psychological issues? Unwed mothers? ~ I bet when it was newly built it was absolutely beautiful. Those cabinets in the basement are worth saving. The skinny back stairs would have been for the servants if it was ever a single family home. The peacefulness of the setting is still apparent. Thanks so much for sharing this once beautiful house. I love what you do and how you do it. ✨🌹✨
Thanks Sharon
I get the impression that it was an old church camp. The rooms housed staff and the pastors slept in this building. It looks like they fed the campers in the basement. In many cities the county of municipality will make the bank keep the exterior maintained and lock up the building locked up. The county assessors office will have the information. Cool location. I am surprised someone hasn't bought it up for development.
.
Awesome, my first video watch of your explores. !!! Only two years ago, where have I been......loved it.
That was awesome! To bad it fell in despair. Thank you for sharing this and your other adventures! I have family living in PA. I used to travel there in the summers and at Christmas. Most of my family lives in Lancaster county. My cousins and I used to go to old barns in the area. It was fun and scary at the same time. Keep sharing your awesome vlogs.
Lots of history in Pa
I love your videos! When I was a child, my parents and I would explore all over our state (CO). I love the fact that you don't create paranormal and just share the beauty of age I would like to know the general area of where you are - like maybe southern Colorado or Central West Virginia - just general info. My husband and I are getting ready to move towards the South Carolina or Oregon coastal areas I would like to explore the idea of purchasing one of the many abandoned homes and remodeling Thank you for sharing these wonderful buildings and sharing!
Most of my videos, including this one is in Pennsylvania. Ive also explored in Maryland and New York.
Such a beautiful place. The structure same sturdy. Those 7up bottles I'm sure is from the early 80. We could take them back to the store for cash 😁. Love the layout of the big yard all those trees make the place look homey.....Thank you for the tour
I remember collecting 16 ounce bottles as a kid and turning them in but I've never seen a 32 ounce glass bottle like the ones in this house. The cartons would carry 8 and we got ten cents for each of them. I remember trying to be the first kid up on saturday morning to find the most bottles. lol
I agree Donnasfocus
Very cool and great info at the end. Wish there were pics of it's day.
Great video again! That house looks bigger on the inside than on the outside. It does comes over as very suffocating. I think maybe a creepy cult lived there.
Can't wait to see you explore the other building on that property. ☆☆☆☆☆
I plan on exploring 2 out of the 3. The 3rd one is too visible to the music venue.
+JPVideos Great!! Can't wait and goodluck with exploring!
I love all of those beautiful doors!! ❤
Awesome video and information on the properties wow, thank you for another amazing tour around abandoned properties.
👍
Homes that have gone by the wayside, makes you wonder where the people are, very sad. Let's hope they have gone on to happy and productive lives. Good job JP.
Beautiful work 😁👌✌️😸 Thank you friend! Take care 😎
Love the abandoned house, like ure vid very much! I appreciate all that u do & bring for us to see!
Thanks, for sharing another great video. Yes, Please! Protect your health. All the best!
Beautiful house!!! I love all the closets!!! Great find Jay and you did a wonderful job on the video!!! I'm so glad you got into this business cause I love your videos!!! Thank you!!!
😊💙
Jay just watched this video. You continue to amaze me with your finds. The doors to outside in the upper rooms, that basement, the porch & playground so incredibly awesome! :)
Thanks marty
That is a sideboard across from that piano, it’s a real nice sideboard.
That’s a beautiful Craftman Bungalo someone needs to purchase it and restore it
Not finished watching this video yet (just found you and subscribed after one video!!) but I love the respect and privacy to give to these houses/buildings and former residents!! xx
Thanks for watching and subscribing.
Beautiful, but creepy with those sealed and lock from the outside rooms! I agree, CULT! Another cool location JP, keep them coming and be safe! p.s. Get respirators! 😀
they probably were to lock people outr of the rooms after the house was empty .
:)
What a beautiful property. Massive house. Awesome.
had to watch it again the place is wonderful jp you got a lot gems on your channel!!!!!can't thank you enough!
Thanks for the kind words
I'm sure that someone has said this already however @ 6:08 this piece of furniture would be in a dining room. A buffet- it held dishes,serving plates/bowls, etc. My parents have one that was in my grandmother's home😊 Interesting explore~ thank you!
I like this very much. It seems like it once housed Masons. The stonework is lovely. Can't wait to see more.
I love your videos so much , I just recently stumbled upon them so now am spending hours catching up . Lol. It almost feels like I'm right beside you exploring . Thank you so much
Thanks for joining me cathy
Love discovering Videos you have done JP....your voice is so soothing as you take us on the tours of these neat PlacesOfThePast ......so Here we gooooooo....Looks Facinating
Thank you pinky princess
Walk in closets are odd for a old house. It must have been custom built. Thank you for recording it for us.
Quite true, I can imagine it as it was originally fairly easily. It seems it would've been a wealthy person who had it built. My guess is early 20th century, if anyone has any thoughts on the age I'm curious. The doors are the best clue I could see.
I was thinking they were maybe put in during a renovation, cos they looked like if you removed the walls, they’d be a continuation of the room x
Ya, it for sure had a lot of closet space for an older house.
David Brown, the Craftsman bungalows usually had walk-in closets.
Beautiful area, it's a shame the home is runned down.
I love the longer videos as your showing more of the places and the dialogue is very interesting. Keep up the great work!
Ty Jennifer
That is quite a house!!! Beautiful location.
Amazing video.
Thanks for sharing it.
Wow! What a beautiful home that once was! It seems like it became a religious lodge, it looks familiar like I've seen the style and the design on the light switch before. Unreal how many bedrooms and bathrooms and closets, and all good sized. Wonderful windows in the upper rooms looking out to the scenery.quite interesting how well all the wood paneling has held up! You are right about the outside being gorgeous. Very interesting once again. Thanks for your hard work and thoughtful delivery of your videos.
You're welcome
Wow a old boarding house Cool old house. Back in the day canning was best way for food storage and storage areas were big
Pine wood. Large spider webs yikes! Thanks for sharing!
Definitely a beautiful home. My first thought was a Masonic Lodge or Knights of Columbus type of place. Good work again!!!!!
Great video 👍 JP. Your the best
This was fantastic!! You are so thorough. I love your videos!! I would have loved to have seen that beauty of a house, back in the day. Before the dropped ceilings & partial remodel. Damn shame someone owns it & is just letting it rot. Makes me want to give them, (what for). Strangeness factors...the metal door, with a way to lock it up, from the outside. Were they locking people up there? The little crawlspaces.. the downstairs kitchen...where was the big dining area to eat in? Just strange stuff. I would have killed for a place like that & they just let it rot...😢 again, great job. Way to preserve what will soon be gone. And thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks Tamara. Wish i could see it in its original form.
Great video, neat house, thanks for sharing!
Another great video. Thank you
:)
Wow tons of rooms. That basement looked pretty cool. Definitely can see some church bizarre being held their. Great video and cool place.
Alan Clark Freemasonry
Trouble, trouble. You say it seems larger… it had like 18 rooms! That's a REALLY big house!
Great video was once a beautiful home and grounds
I enjoy these videos. Thanks sharing them.
Maybe my imagination is getting away from me but does it seem the amount of kitchen space would way exceed what was needed for a hotel type arrangement? And the house looks so normal from the outside and the living room so small? It's almost like it's trying to give the appearance of a normal home. With all the rooms, almost every single one had access outside? I wonder if this didn't belong to a Mormon family? Either way, cool find!
The "dresser" in the piano room, one of the first rooms you entered, is more likely a sideboard or lowboy from a dining room suite of matching furniture, originally used to store china, glassware, cutlery and linens. Thanks for the tour, you do a great job.
Thanks
Such a sad unwanted place,does not feel like it’s ever been loved,such a shame ..thanks for showing 😀
the light switch was cool. i also the shapes of the upper rooms and the shelves. i absolutely loved the stone look on the exterior. shame its left to rot.
Beautiful church/house thanks for sharing this amazing video.out did your self.
linda wilkes. Church house I wouldn't have it. Not after hearing them stand up and lie through their teeth for Trump on a daily basis. They should theirs souls to Trump their mortal souls no longer belong to God.
When you entered the building and said it had a cult vibe or feeling, I thought exactly the same a few seconds before. I find it strange that there aren't any light fittings on the ceiling. I'd love to have seen inside before it was made into a business or whatever it was. Great video as always 👍
Definitely strange. Thanks Julie
Really enjoyed this just what to know more,to mysteriously hiding at there! Thank you for the Adventure.
Thanks for watching
Love the bathroom mirror. Thanks, Buddy.
Beautiful when restored. Love these places
