  • This house may have been built as early as the late 1700s(some of the furniture in the house may be that old as well like at 11:22 )and actually has some neat history . Sadly this house is now the process of being torn down for new housing developments because the house wasn’t listed on the historical register. Full information in my pinned comment below.

    This house was most likely built in the late 1700s, around 1790 by a wealthy local farming family and stayed in the family until the early 1900s when the farm was auctioned off. Sadly the farm was sold again just recently for the land and now is unfortunately in the process of being demolished for new housing developments. I’m very glad to have been lucky enough to film this incredible place before it was torn down. Everything about this house was just magnificent , from the vintage sports cars sitting around the house as if waiting for there long gone owner to finally return. VINTAGE SPORTS CARS ARE FROM 15:00 on. Or the incredible antiques inside (Some of the furniture is definitely over a century old, maybe older) Hope you enjoy! This was definitely a favorite explore of mine!

    Another well done video-thanks for posting it.
    Would you mind a suggestion regarding your health on these explores? Please consider spending around $25 at Tractor Supply for a decent filtration mask-you have no idea what you’re breathing in in these old places-aerosolized bird feces, disintegrated insects, molds, bacteria, dust. The house may smell *fine*, maybe a little rank, but this stuff is floating around. It gets into your lungs and sets up small infections, rarely bad enough to require a trip to the doc, but bad enough that insidious damage is done to your lungs over years, even decades, and once your lungs are scarred, they stay scarred and your breathing is permanently impaired. Dealing with COPD is not a fun way to spend your, um, mature years, especially if it could have been easily prevented. You may feel young and strong and invincible now but you won’t always, and you need to safeguard your health now for your later life. Please consider a mask. You go into so many old places that your risk of exposure is pretty high.
    It’s your life, however-I’m off the soapbox now.
    Thank you again for some wonderful videos.

    best old house story: My friend Ron had an uncle that did demolition of old houses in Philadelphia. one day on a lunch break he spots a suitcase in a closet of a partially demo'd house. He climbs the rubble and opens the suitcase, closes it and walks off the job never to work again for the rest of his life. The next thing his family knows is he's moved to South Africa, ten years pass, he phones his brother to meet him at the airport in NYC. The brother arrives, the 1st thing they do is drive to a Cadillac dealer where the visiting brother buys his brother a new Cadillac, then they drive to Atlantic city. The visiting brother looks at the ocean for about 30 minutes then returns to NYC and back to South Africa. And as long as he lived he never told a family member what was in the suitcase. I worked construction for 10 years. We did a lot of building demos, and I could kick myself in the ass for the stuff I never took that just got tossed in the waste removal dumpster. I have at the very least a dozen stories of abandoned treasures tossed away that would make you cry. I know they make me do. If your not taking anything at least metal detect the grounds.

      Nope, they open up a giant hole in property and what can't be sold a scrap is thrown in the hole, then covered up with dirt. New homes built right on top of it. Usually one front yard per street. Sick huh? Get busy Clinton and go get some without getting in trouble for trespassing, theft, breaking and entering? What else?? So you see stupid is as stupid does. Nobody cares but you can't have them. Because you could get hurt and sue them, when on their property.

    Hi Kappy. I am a new subscriber under quarantine. I’ve always been fascinated with checking out abandon vintage homes with my now fiancé. You just inspired me to do some CZcams videos when he gets back from deployment. And about the first piano... that’s from the late 1700s and early 1800s (restored over the years not by much). My grandparents actually owned one and no one was allowed to touch it besides them. The only time it was heard was during the holidays when the family would get together and sing and dance and play their favorite instruments. Piano is now in Germany with my aunt. Great video and a gem of a home. Thank you for sharing 😊

    Hi Kappy, Just getting to watch this now in 2021, my favorite explore ever (so far) this place contains so many beautiful items, an antique dealer could live for a year on just the contents in this place alone. I realize it's probably demolished by now and it's heartbreaking to think of a lifetime collection like that being wasted. Hopefully someone had the sense to clear out the contents before demolishing it. Keep up the wonderful work and THANKS for this glimpse into a very special place.

    Hi Kappy, I'm betting when that first piano was made, the white keys were made out of ivory! How sad that its been left there to rot, it belongs in a museum. The other pianos are equally beautiful, people seem to not take pianos with them when they move, much less 4 of them! Do you know if this house was being razed, or dismantled? If it was razed it's a crying shame, if it was being dismantled, there's hope that some of the irreplaceable furniture could be seen, and saved. This property could possibly have a family cemetery somewhere on it, although the stones may be long gone. Kappy, your videos just keep getting better, and better!

    This place was amazing. Looks like they used it as storage for many years. A piano in almost every room so when the mood hit them to play music they didn't have to walk far. No bathroom so I'm assuming no plumbing in house. I love your enthusiasm and how you seem genuinely surprised at the things you find. Could you show the ceilings though so we can see the light fixtures? The demolition crew usually has salvage rights so hopefully they will clear it out before knocking it down. Great job.

(2 years ago) I had the kids take some furniture & stuff i didn't need out of the house & they re-arranged the living room furniture. I thought it looked good & was taking pictures to send & show my friend & family. 1st picture i took i saw 2 or 3 little white squiggly things go from where i was standing down to our bedroom door, turn & disappear. But they didn't show up in the picture, i just saw them when taking the picture. We'd lived in that house for 22 years.

    This is a pump organ, The pedals (there are supposed to be two) and as you pedaled the feet pedals bellows would push air through pipes and as you played the keys music would come out. As a young girl about 5 or 6 a neighbor of our had one and it was very old then (I was born in 1952). It could still play but not well. I'd say that organ was from the early to mid 1880s, perhaps a little younger, but it is too far gone to be repaired. The furniture and glassware is WOW! That table in the dining room is truly remarkable. I would work so hard to restore it to its original splendor. I loved how the legs of it curled around. Honestly, a very interesting house indeed! That piano just up against that fire place was an old pier piano where you put the rolls of paper in and crank it up and it would play songs for you. There were perforations in the paper that indicated when the keys needed to be o=played. My grandfather had one. You could also play it yourself as well. However, putting piano against any heat or cold producing wall or unit would make it go out of tune so fast. Therefore, you would never want to put a piano beside a fireplace nor a wall that was against a wall that was against the exterior of the outside. Sometimes you haven't got a choice but it will just have to be tuned more often. That one was terribly out of tune!

    Words cant describe how badly i want to save this place and the contents... im sure there is 6 figures worth of antique furniture alone that the demo company is just going to destroy because it has some bird poop on it. Such a shame that so much history is going to end up in a landfill.

    That Home Comfort wood stove is probably not older than the early 1900s.
    That box of assorted glassware is worth some money! I can see two pieces that are noteworthy and make my mouth water. Makes my fingers get all itchy. Good thing you're filming and not me, Kappy!
    The best I can tell from Good Old Google, that pump organ is from 1870 to 1890. Comparables are selling for twelve to fourteen hundred dollars at auction. Saw its twin on an auction house site out of Los Angeles. Of course, it was in a LOT better shape. Just so you know, the pedals have to be pumped to let air fill the bellows. Then you can get music.
    That last piano was a player piano.
    The windmill turned the pump that brought water up from the well and sent it to the house or wherever it was needed.
    Oh, I had to stop taking screenshots of everything, but I believe, and I'm a pretty fair judge of antiques, that there are about one hundred thousand dollars worth of furniture, glassware, pottery, quilts and ephemera in this house.
    My only hope is that someone cleared this little lady of her valuables before she was murdered in the name of progress. I know I will dream of her tonight and shed a tear for her, who could have been and should have been saved from the hammer of progress. Farewell, beautiful lady, we will long remember you.

    By the look of everything it looks like no one has lived there in about 40 years. Really sad so much was left behind, hopefully someone can get the furniture/cars moved before they tear it down.

    Kappy, I love the respect and awe you exhibit while exploring these old houses. It’s awesome that you appreciate history so much. I saw two beautiful armoires there and one of the pianos was a player piano. I hope some of these antiques were salvaged. I still can’t wrap my head around all the things left behind in these homes. Such a waste! BTW, I love your enthusiasm for old fireplace mantels. 😃

  •  Před 4 lety +1

    What a find! Can't get over all the pianos and the organ. I think I saw a player-piano as well.
    Truly amazing. I must commend you on your approach to these videos, they're very well done.

  • @csnyder820
    @csnyder820 Před 5 lety +1

    When I watch these videos it always gets me thinking about the people who lived there at one time. We don't know what happened to them but back in the day someone called it home. It was probably warm and inviting. And someone loved it. Now its messy and destroyed. It's sad to see it. It may have been their pride and joy. Thank you for being so respectful.

    They sure had every thing. Often old American homes have beautiful staircases and pianos left to rot. But I have never seen so many pianos as this place. They seem to progress from the oldest to newest, absolute antiques. This family must have had some disposable income. Of course you pointed out the wind powered water pump. Soo cool.

    Rich people lived there at one time, the furniture is a carved mahogany and really beautiful stuff. Some of those pieces would be worth thousands of dollars unrestored. Awesome place and every room had a piano, definitely well off people lived there.

    @oldenweery7510 Před 6 lety +15

    Wow! How did they manage to pack all that----junk----into this place? Two-thirds of the way through it suddenly hit me that I hadn't seen any sign of electrical outlets, lamps, light switches, or fixtures. I did see the base of an oil lamp mixed in with all those dishes an things, shortly after he entered, and later I saw a whole lot of them on a table in one of the rooms, so I wonder if this place had never been wired. Also, now that I think about it: no bathroom! Shades of our 1950s northwoods cabin... Kappy, you've done it again!

  • @rheaglasper387
    @rheaglasper387 Před 6 lety +1

    Hey Knappy, diffidently one of the most spectacular properties you’ve showed us. I’m so curious as to why there are so many of these abandoned houses still with valuable antiques in them. Why aren’t they sold in auction instead of being left to rot. It’s our history disappearing in front of our eyes.
    Other than that I love seeing these places. It’s always been a dream of mine to go through old houses. You & others have made this possible😁. However, I like your videos & commentary the most. You don’t use bad language & I just love it when you say; “ oh wow, look at this!” Your big into fireplace mantels. On this this video I kept waiting for you to say again; “another piano”.
    Thank you for all you do, I absolutely love it 😍.

  • @yeunome2170
    @yeunome2170 Před 5 lety +1

    Someone probably pointed this out already but, just in case not, the first ornate keyboard instrument which you called a piano, was actually an old pump organ. My mother, who died in 2001 at the age of 90, had one very much like it. I have really been enjoying your videos; they are my new guilty pleasure. Thanks for your efforts.
