  • This old plantation farm house was built around 1845-1850 in North Carolina. The original family the house was built for farmed a number of crops as well as owning a lumber mill in town. The mill operated during the civil war until being destroyed by the Union in 1864-1865. There are stories the home was used as a field hospital for a large civil war battle that happened nearby at the very tail end of the war in the winter/ spring of 1865. The house was abandoned in the 1970’s and sat vacant for many years until a restoration was begun in the early 2000’s but then forgotten again sadly. Now it’s almost impossible to even see the house as a large forest has grown up out front of it. Lots of beautiful old details inside. Thanks for watching. Like and leave a comment if you enjoyed the video.
    The final 2 minutes is a memorial to my best buddy for 16 years, going to miss you so much Chewie.

    Such a sweet and beautiful dog. So sorry Kappy. I lost a good friend today. She was a Silver lab and just the sweetest. Sending healing hugs. As far as the house goes; it's a new favorite. Thank you Kappy.

    I had a dog from the time I was 4 until 18. That's been 42 yrs ago, but I still think of him and his face hasn't faded from my memory. I remember him vividly. And I have a few pics. Hang in there. I wish you the best in life and much happiness!!!

    So enjoyed the memories of Chewie. She's the outline (especially that tail!!) of my old friend, Rocky Bernard, who's now struggling with life at 15 yo, and every day I wake up to him is a special treat. There is no better company, than our canine angels. I know your heart must be broken. And so life begins anew, in the absence of that loving figure. TY for sharing, Kappy. Gone but not forgotten, like so many old houses whose memories you've carefully preserved.

    This house has terrific bones. Perfect for restoration. Deep pockets needed but much of work can be done by motivated individual with a vision. The roof obviously is in good shape, which preserved the interior. A good roof is most important.

    It hurts my heart when I see such magnificent places like this knowing they're abandoned and being left to be reclaimed by the earth. I've seen so many places abandoned that can be restored but aren't. As a disabled 65 year old man that's facing homelessness for the first time in my life I wonder about so many people becoming homeless and yet there are thousands of abandoned homes everywhere... It's crazy.
    I'm sorry for the loss of your dog. She's a charming beauty. ❤
    Great video Kappy. Thanks 🤠👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    That house looks like it’s holding up well since your last video. I kinda get the impression it went for 1850 Greek Revival to a renovation c.1910 in the craftsman style. I hope someone can adapt this one for reuse. My condolences on the loss of your beautiful dog. Thanks, Kappy!

    I'm so sorry for the loss of your dear pup Chewie. Dogs can be such a huge part of our lives and give so much love to us. She was a lucky pup to be so loved and cared for in her life. I enjoyed seeing the photos and videos of her. Such a cute little crooked smile she had. Now all of us who see this will remember her, too. I came down to comment about the bird before I had finished the video and saw the note. I wanted to say that I appreciate how kind you are to the wildlife you come across. I think it says a lot about a person how they treat other living things, and that is one of my favorite things about these videos. Thank you for that and for sharing these videos. Wishing you well.
