We had the ugliest gold shag carpet with avocado green velour living room set and a swag light that looked like it was made by squeezing glass from a tube over a balloon, then popping the balloon after the lava glass cooled...it was orange and the walls were cantaloupe. This was 1972.
I was given the job of vacuuming and occasionally I grabbed the end piece of the vacuum and made lines on the floor so it looked fresh. I was awarded for vacuuming lol.
Give it about another 20 years and everybody's going to regret what they did to their houses and want this kind of design back. Retro is coming back full force, I would kill for this house!
Its a very nice house! I really like the split level houses for some reason...i guess the stairs intrigue me, idk. But i do love me a split level house
this house is amazing! literally my dream house...i hope by the time I'm able to buy my own house, I can find one that has some of the vintage 60s charm. so sad to see these go :( but you're right, retro is coming back and people are gonne regret this- modern homes typically give this very cold and uninviting feeling.
I agree, I love this retro house, I would restore or preserve what in that house and add more vintage furniture, and keep up with the maintenance. There is plenty of living space for the Modern Family that home.
Awesome house. One of the most original homes from that time I’ve ever seen. All that wallpaper just fascinates the hell out of me. The agony of vacuuming shag carpet for over 50 years. Glad you got to explore this one and share it with us. ❤️
That mint green was awesome back when I was growing up. My room was painted mint green and I had mint green, 2”, shag carpet. It was ‘dreamy.’ I would love to go back and spend time in my room. My sanctuary. Thank you for sharing.....it all looks a little strange now but back in the day it was all the rage. ♥️
What a gem! How fabulous! I swear that’s one off the best houses yet. The untouched wallpapers are time capsules. These people built their dream home, and never changed things except appliances.
The old refrigerator in the basement was 1950's vintage, some of the brands (Frigidare, Hotpoint) were so well made they will run for 100 years. Seems they got old, moved on, and the family is dispersed to far cities, or, didn't have the heart to clean it out. The wall treatments are like a comment on the era.
I have a Kelvinater from about 66"that still runs good. Grew up with a Crosley Shelvador ( first fridg with shelves in the door) also ran for 50'years but wasn't Auto defrost, a job that had to be done twice a year.
I would so love to buy this house if i had the money it looks amazing I’d have to get the basement taking care of as it seems the only area of the home that it really showed it’s age. I would have to completely change the furnace and add central heating and cooling.
I grew up in a house that looked so much like this! I do remember though in the familyroom my mom put multi-colored shag carpet (with underlying royal blue tones) -- not only on the floors -- but on one of the walls as well! She then had the couches custom upholstered in bright royal blue! The bathroom was bright orange and gold flocked wallpaper! Those were the days! ❤️
Vintage home, I’ve seen old hotels with that kind of wallpaper and that blue bathroom is fit for a Smurf. Idk why but I like this house, classic. Thanks Ethan 🥰🥰
Houses from the 60's and 70's were famous for bright shag carpet, flocked wallpaper, metallic wallpaper, pink bathtubs/sinks/toilets, pink and green tile in the bathrooms and cedar closets. I hate to tell my age but I was raised during those times. LoL
People will regret tearing down these places. If you wait long enough almost anything accumulates value and nostalgic rarity. All the T|iffany lamps people wanted to buy up in the latter part of the 20th c. were being smashed to bits as junk, and their lead recovered, in the '50s and '60s. Hard to buy a nice example now for under £100.
Loved it!! We had flocked wallpaper in orange and a couch like the basement one in orange crushed velvet!! Loved the kitchen wallpaper and the curved staircase. Judging by the cedar closet, fur coat and sauna, this was a rich family. Have a great day!! 🌈
RedLikeWine Well since I am actually that old LOL I do know how small houses were back then. But now houses are so much larger so it probably be hard for a younger person to understand. I absolutely love Ethan’s videos.
Hey shag carpet use to be all the go. Some had three different colors in it . Believe it or not you raked it so it stood up . It only lasted until you walked on it .
I love it when you get all excited Ethan! And I love a lot of mirrors which means lots of "hey, what's up you guys" ! No urban explorer's videos can beat yours.
@@karendworschack756 💯 agree with you! I personally prefer it that way. It's his character, who he is and he shouldn't have to pretend to not be himself because some Karen had a whinge.
That bathroom we first saw so psiodelic with the ceiling and walls decorated the same really enjoyed your tour of this house you are so passionate about that earrea and so knowledgeable you must learn so much each time you visit a new house. Maby someday you might write a book about all your adventures and that would mean even though the houses where demolished your memories of your visits would be there to pass on to a future generation.
Hi Ethan! I’d love for you to show close ups of the old dishes, Appliances, decor and stuff you find in some of these houses. I love and collect vintage stuff so it’s so fun to see some of these items from When they were in use!
That staircase is amazing and I love the black and gold wallpaper. My house has that fabulous green carpet and the realtor kept wanting me to replace it. I told her right quick that was one reason I bought this house! Lol
Love this! Will you add some eerie music and some still shots in your videos? It would be so much fun to watch a seemingly dramatic or mysterious explore. :)
If i had the money I’d surly buy this place, and give it a good professional cleaning from to to bottom i wouldn’t remodel anything within this place. The carpet throughout is beautiful wow!! The only thing I would do regarding the bedrooms are remove all of the beds now if there’s an amazing headboard/ foot board I’ll keep it and buy my mattress. The kitchen i would try to just app new appliances , but I’d like to get the made to look retro from the 1960s and of cause the laundry room would be the only modern room in the whole house
Interesting Place! :-) Will definetely subscribe and follow! Been getting into abandoned more and more myself, Mostly i go solo though, makes it pretty tense in some places :)
The houses of the 60s an 70s had character for sure with fancy Decoration You definitely don't see that in houses built today Love the old 60s and 70s look
That is more like 1975. I had that same flocked wallpaper in my bathroom in 1975. That queen headboard is 1950s tho. And look at all those hula-hoops! That's a big 1950s fad! The "early american" furniture in the "office" is 70s. (The 70s was my decade!) The flooring in the laundry room is 70s... You know, developers are dirty. I mean scum of the Earth dirty. They will offer you a ton of money for your house but even if you love your home and don't want to sell for any amount of money, the developers will threaten you with ordinances, pay off county/city officials to harass you and take you into court to try and get your house condemned or have you labeled insane. They're f*cking scumbags. People don't always take the money. They want their homes. But the barrage of legal actions the developers can bring against you if you don't take the money and go so they can have your home is unbearable. Developers have their own prime spot in hell, for sure. That Happy Face clock @13:47 came out in 1976 lol I had one! The fridge was from the late 1940s. Yeah...that green stove is late 60s. "Avocado Green". And that old brown couch was sold as a "playpen" couch...it would have ottomans with it to make it into like a big bed/lounging area. I'd always wanted one...they came in brown, rust and gold but I think you could find red ones. This was a great blast from the past...I could see some 60s in it but it definitely wasn't original. It appeared to have been updated in the mid-70s then updated a little more in the mid-80s. Every ten years... I'm thankful you're getting these houses on film. They're all so nice and take me back to a time when life was so good. Thank you SO much, Ethan.
The only nice thing about some of this mess is who ever bulldoze it. Will have to come in and get some stuff out. Like the refrigerators, just smile 😊 knowing they had to work extra hard to get this house bulldozed. At least that is what happened down the street from me.
I get a kick out of how excited you get in these homes!! I was married in1971 and most of the things you show we had! I still have the electric knife! Brings back good memories! Thanks!
This one was beautiful, and i'll bet it was really awesome when it was new. It's sad that people go into these places and disrespect them by going thru everything and just tossing it on the floor, it would be great if they go in to look and leave it the way they found it. Thanks for sharing with us. Enjoyed this one. You should however wear masks because black mold and lets face it any type of mold, when you breath that the spores can get into your lungs and cause major health problems.
Oh my gosh! Talk about a throw back! I used to enjoy the feel of shag carpet under my feet. Seeing the old wall paper makes me realize just how gaudy some of it was! Thanks for sharing.
Ethan- i grew up in a house with exactly the same flock wallpaper! The ‘ his and hers’ people were classics in my grandparents house. They used them for hand towels. I love this house. The pool down bar with mirrors and black lacquer.... a gem. Such a fi d I can’t believe it. Well done ....
Thank you for sharing. Yes it’s very sad that these older houses are being taken down. But I do understand why. Thank you for letting us see what our past was. And where we came from in design.
Love seeing the Crazy Lee's bag! I was an 80s kid, and grew up with that store, love seeing this house, brings back the memories! My childhood home was full of shag
Wow. Flashback to the crazy 70's indeed. Loved that pimp looking fur coat you found in the closet. More colors and wallpaper than the Brady House. Loved it. Some serious partying went down in that place.
Wow this is the best! You are so great at showing all the good details. My bedroom early 70's was this mint just love everything. Just discovered you will be watching. 🌈🥰
Amazing house. You appeared, in the pink room, to zoom right past a Blue Lagoon poster on the outside of the closet and the fashion magazine appeared to have Brooke Shields on the cover. Iconic 80's moments.
My late gran had a bedroom set like that dresser in the master bedroom sucked that we had no room for it when she passed and were cleaning out her house , those suckers were HEAVY.
Wow. Just wow. I remember the shag carpet, the flocked velvet wallpaper, the paneling. I'm shocked so many things are original. The kitchen wallpaper looks original. We had milk doors when I was growing up! So sad to think of this being torn down, a true time capsule, from someone who grew up in this era. 67, the Vietnam war was going on. My brother in law served from 68-70. ❤ Thank you Dave. We miss you.
This is so bazar that pretty much nothing changed from the time it was built after living in it that many years. Usually people do some updating over time. However, I lived in one built in 1965 and they pretty much had not touched it except for new carpet in the den until we moved in 2000. These houses bring back so many memories having been born in 1961 and growing up in the 60's and 70's. I love these videos
Ethan another Amazing video Thank you, I think you were ment to be born in the 60s 70s your love for this style is undeniable. At the start that red shag pile carpet, the room with the wallpaper on the ceiling gave me vertigo. Staircase wax my favourite. Spot on with the dates. I still think Quality of Life instead of Quantity as seen in this house. You are Amazing! Kindest thoughts to you and your family from Australia xx
I can always tell when you're super excited about an explore, because you forget some of the, "What's up you guys?" When you say it, I smile. When you forget because you're so excited, I grin. Thank you for mentioning the milk door. I just assumed it was where a fire extinguisher was kept, lol.
I’ve been waiting to see a fur coat left behind in a cedar closet. First channel to ever find one from what I’ve seen. Wow. That looks like it’s in nice shape too. A mink or sheared beaver with fox or coyote collar. Edit: that looks like a GE Filter-Flo washing machine too!!!
This is one of my all time favorite abandoned vids! Amazing house! I remember my grandparents houses looking like this when I was a child in 80s. But like u said, people move on and houses get renovated. I wish you could have found out why on earth this house was left in 2018. They bagged up so much of their belongings only to leave it? And entire bedroom furniture sets left! Most people would have at least had a garage sale or posted online to get rid of what they didn’t want. Oh! And the 1985 Madamoselle (sp?) looks exactly like the magazines my mom had out on our coffee tables. Thanks for a great explore. This one was quite memorable:)
You Definitely Have A Talent For This. Love The House, I Would Have Loved To See It In It's Day. Thanks For Sharing. Looking Forward To Your Next Adventure!
Hey Ethan NY fan, This is an incredible Time Capsule ! Loved the beautiful wall paper , shag carpets, furniture I can imagine a big family and a great life there at one time ! Maybe from Thailand ! Awesome find and I can tell you respect and love what you do. Thank you for another great video ...
I don't think I have ever commented before but I had to take a minute to let you know how much I love your videos. I too am an old house buff. I love them all but turn of the century and mid century modern are my favs. However I grew up in the 70's and 80's so they are very nostalgic for me. Your a wonderful docent. Pretty sure your an old soul as well 😉. Thank you for the entertainment ❤️
You got me with the old fleecy fabric softener that was super cool. Idk why but I just love old laundry stuff/washers and dryers. Flocked wallpaper was awesome too. I’d love to see this place all restored/cleaned and staged with 60’s furniture that would be amazing
The basement is the most original section of this house; that was pure '65 - curtains, deep aqua vinyl chairs, the sofa, etc. This place could be put back together easily. That fridge looks more early to mid '50s to me. Good video.
it would be awesome to have a fireplace in the basement! I live in Louisiana, so basements are not a thing here (not needed), so I'm fascinated with basements, especially ones where there's a kitchen, fireplace, etc. It's like another house inside of the house.
You are such a sweetheart to apologise for possibly offending anybody by saying oh my G... I was raised to always say oh my gosh so I do cringe inside when I hear somebody say it, so thankyou for being you! Oh and fabulous place!! I've always loved the 60s and 70s homes, so much character and color!
![[Gegagedigedagedago] NEW Help Gegagedigedagedago Nugget escape from Nikocado Avocado Challenge](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/hJWnwRC2Fz8/mqdefault.jpg)
For such a young lad he appreciates mid century modern, I love that. If only those walls could talk.
Anyone else a kid in the 70’s remember raking the shag carpets after mom finished vacuuming? It was one of my jobs!
Yes
We had, still have hardwood floors.
We had the ugliest gold shag carpet with avocado green velour living room set and a swag light that looked like it was made by squeezing glass from a tube over a balloon, then popping the balloon after the lava glass cooled...it was orange and the walls were cantaloupe. This was 1972.
You had to vacuum carefully if your sister had a Lite Brite set... those little beads were magnetically attracted to shag.
I was given the job of vacuuming and occasionally I grabbed the end piece of the vacuum and made lines on the floor so it looked fresh. I was awarded for vacuuming lol.
Give it about another 20 years and everybody's going to regret what they did to their houses and want this kind of design back. Retro is coming back full force, I would kill for this house!
J C me too.
Its a very nice house! I really like the split level houses for some reason...i guess the stairs intrigue me, idk. But i do love me a split level house
this house is amazing! literally my dream house...i hope by the time I'm able to buy my own house, I can find one that has some of the vintage 60s charm. so sad to see these go :(
but you're right, retro is coming back and people are gonne regret this- modern homes typically give this very cold and uninviting feeling.
I agree, I love this retro house, I would restore or preserve what in that house and add more vintage furniture, and keep up with the maintenance. There is plenty of living space for the Modern Family that home.
I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!!!!!
Appreciate how respectful you are! Not showing names addresses, not criticizing people! Keep up great work!
Ethan is very respectful in his explored 😺
Ethan, your enthusiasm is contagious.
OH MY GOD
lol
@@samirel-masri817 JFC
Awesome house. One of the most original homes from that time I’ve ever seen. All that wallpaper just fascinates the hell out of me. The agony of vacuuming shag carpet for over 50 years. Glad you got to explore this one and share it with us. ❤️
There’s a lot of wall paper
I love the wall paperi .In addition. tbe frames on thue foorsrugcolori just wondered why this people moved. Out
Yes you are so right! Growing up in the 70s this brings back memories for sure.
That mint green was awesome back when I was growing up. My room was painted mint green and I had mint green, 2”, shag carpet. It was ‘dreamy.’ I would love to go back and spend time in my room. My sanctuary. Thank you for sharing.....it all looks a little strange now but back in the day it was all the rage. ♥️
♥
Miss those days!
My room was mint green with mint green shag carpet as well. I loved it!
The "office" would've been called the "study" back then. Lol
Nice joke dude Lol
What a gem! How fabulous! I swear that’s one off the best houses yet. The untouched wallpapers are time capsules. These people built their dream home, and never changed things except appliances.
Not going to lie, I would keep that flocked wallpaper. I love it.
When we bought our house, the flocked wall paper was the first to go. But the walls had moisture behind them. Had to take down the walls too.
@@jennilafser1343 oh, wow! I bet that sucked :-((
Me too
I'm just going to clean up this house and move in!
Nice
The old refrigerator in the basement was 1950's vintage, some of the brands (Frigidare, Hotpoint) were so well made they will run for 100 years. Seems they got old, moved on, and the family is dispersed to far cities, or, didn't have the heart to clean it out. The wall treatments are like a comment on the era.
I have a Kelvinater from about 66"that still runs good. Grew up with a Crosley Shelvador ( first fridg with shelves in the door) also ran for 50'years but wasn't Auto defrost, a job that had to be done twice a year.
I would so love to buy this house if i had the money it looks amazing I’d have to get the basement taking care of as it seems the only area of the home that it really showed it’s age. I would have to completely change the furnace and add central heating and cooling.
They don’t anymore.
Kenmoore
I want to go see one of these houses in person I love the way they were built back in the day I want one just like it awesome video !!
Same... I have seen a few abandoned homes in my area.. but I’m too scared to explore alone 😱😱
Ok
I grew up in a house that looked so much like this! I do remember though in the familyroom my mom put multi-colored shag carpet (with underlying royal blue tones) -- not only on the floors -- but on one of the walls as well! She then had the couches custom upholstered in bright royal blue! The bathroom was bright orange and gold flocked wallpaper! Those were the days! ❤️
Curious as to why people left such a mess.The house is cool.
Vintage home, I’ve seen old hotels with that kind of wallpaper and that blue bathroom is fit for a Smurf. Idk why but I like this house, classic. Thanks Ethan 🥰🥰
LOVED this one! So much 60's furniture and decor and books, etc. Just clean it up and move in! The bathrooms are the best!
Houses from the 60's and 70's were famous for bright shag carpet, flocked wallpaper, metallic wallpaper, pink bathtubs/sinks/toilets, pink and green tile in the bathrooms and cedar closets. I hate to tell my age but I was raised during those times. LoL
That house was cool! Even the blue potty! Love these old houses!
People will regret tearing down these places. If you wait long enough almost anything accumulates value and nostalgic rarity. All the T|iffany lamps people wanted to buy up in the latter part of the 20th c. were being smashed to bits as junk, and their lead recovered, in the '50s and '60s. Hard to buy a nice example now for under £100.
Loved it!! We had flocked wallpaper in orange and a couch like the basement one in orange crushed velvet!! Loved the kitchen wallpaper and the curved staircase. Judging by the cedar closet, fur coat and sauna, this was a rich family. Have a great day!! 🌈
Good inspection
Absolutely rich! When he said this was a "normal" home from the 60s, I wanted to say, 'Nope, it was an elaborate home of a very well-off family.'
RedLikeWine Well since I am actually that old LOL I do know how small houses were back then. But now houses are so much larger so it probably be hard for a younger person to understand. I absolutely love Ethan’s videos.
@@LadyLakeMusic Oh....I'm not young either. I'm 51. This seemed to be a very elaborate home. I love it ♥
Amazing house!! My heart aches for the awesome homes like this that go to waste. So much beauty & history there. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Joy of sex was a hot seller . I remember all this stuff. It's like a walk back in time .
How’d you go back in time
This house could be used in movies and tv! Great find!
Hey shag carpet use to be all the go. Some had three different colors in it . Believe it or not you raked it so it stood up . It only lasted until you walked on it .
I love it when you get all excited Ethan! And I love a lot of mirrors which means lots of "hey, what's up you guys" ! No urban explorer's videos can beat yours.
This is probably one of the cooler ones you've gone through, every house has some sort of untold story.
Sure does
Awesome! Ethan, this house is like, trapped in 1965! Sad that it is abandoned and even sadder that it will be torn down.
Never apologize for being you 😁😎
Exactly! It's his channel,he should be able to say and do what he wants! That's what I think, anyway!
@@karendworschack756 💯 agree with you! I personally prefer it that way. It's his character, who he is and he shouldn't have to pretend to not be himself because some Karen had a whinge.
Man.. Now I wanna wallpaper my entire house... Walls and ceilings!
Another great one!
Amazing house! I love the wallpaper, shag carpet, bathrooms and the staircase. Thanks Ethan for sharing this great find! ( lonewolfs wifey )
That bathroom we first saw so psiodelic with the ceiling and walls decorated the same really enjoyed your tour of this house you are so passionate about that earrea and so knowledgeable you must learn so much each time you visit a new house. Maby someday you might write a book about all your adventures and that would mean even though the houses where demolished your memories of your visits would be there to pass on to a future generation.

Appliances, decor and stuff you find in some of these houses. I love and collect vintage stuff so it’s so fun to see some of these items from
When they were in use!
That staircase is amazing and I love the black and gold wallpaper. My house has that fabulous green carpet and the realtor kept wanting me to replace it. I told her right quick that was one reason I bought this house! Lol
Looks like something my mom would have loved...the colors, the wallpaper....She used to be told her taste was all in her mouth.😃
Sad to see so much left behind. Must have been an elderly person that passed with no family.
The person had family as there were bedroom/s that were clearly kids rooms.
There's not much value in what's left behind. Kids probably took what they wanted, sold house in as-is condition to a developer
TY For The Walk Thru Ethan, it is in fact a time capsule too bad it is going to be demolished. Amazing how many things were left behind.
Love this! Will you add some eerie music and some still shots in your videos? It would be so much fun to watch a seemingly dramatic or mysterious explore. :)
that was awesome I was born in 65 so that made it even cooler love all the wall paper
If i had the money I’d surly buy this place, and give it a good professional cleaning from to to bottom i wouldn’t remodel anything within this place. The carpet throughout is beautiful wow!! The only thing I would do regarding the bedrooms are remove all of the beds now if there’s an amazing headboard/ foot board I’ll keep it and buy my mattress.

What a great video. I also like the one Terry did.Id give the posters a very good home.It breaks my heart to think of the posters being torn down. 😪
So cool, they had their dream house, and never changed a thing!
I get a kick out of how excited you get in these homes!! I was married in1971 and most of the things you show we had! I still have the electric knife! Brings back good memories! Thanks!
Wow, for them to have a sauna in 1965 he must have been a really great architect!
We are thankful to see your work. There is no need to apologize.
What a retro treasure! I have never seen a bathroom with the ceiling done with what was on the walls! Your enthusiasm is contagious! Great video!!

Old houses be like nice and great to live in you fixing it up that will be awesome
Do families ever contact you to tell their stories? That would add a whole other dimension. I bet they’re fascinating.

That house is soooooo cool! It needs so much cleaning though. The green shag on the staircase and flocked wallpaper, you won't find anywhere else.
Same flocked wallpaper my mom had in her bedroom and she had a red crushed velvet bedspread with matching curtains.
Its heartbreaking in a way to see all these belongings just left..no reason...just left as is!!
Yes, a lot of these old houses that you’ve documented Ethan will be demolished. At least you’ve taken footage of them!
Houese*

We had milk doors when I was growing up! So sad to think of this being torn down, a true time capsule, from someone who grew up in this era. 67, the Vietnam war was going on. My brother in law served from 68-70. ❤ Thank you Dave. We miss you.
Ethan your always so upbeat love the work you do for your fans amazing home stay safe looking forward to the next video
This is so bazar that pretty much nothing changed from the time it was built after living in it that many years. Usually people do some updating over time. However, I lived in one built in 1965 and they pretty much had not touched it except for new carpet in the den until we moved in 2000. These houses bring back so many memories having been born in 1961 and growing up in the 60's and 70's. I love these videos
Ethan another Amazing video Thank you, I think you were ment to be born in the 60s 70s your love for this style is undeniable. At the start that red shag pile carpet, the room with the wallpaper on the ceiling gave me vertigo. Staircase wax my favourite. Spot on with the dates. I still think Quality of Life instead of Quantity as seen in this house. You are Amazing! Kindest thoughts to you and your family from Australia xx
I wwoul also love the magazines as I still collect 1970s to 90s tabloids, magazines, and memorbilia
Those electric knives were really hot Christmas gifts when my mother got hers in 1967. Amazing time capsule. Thanks
That fur coat looks like a seal coat, I love how excited you are! Makes me excited too!!
Very cool house. Great flocked wallpaper and foyer w the curved staircase. That fridge in the basement was more 50s than 60s. Good job!
Thanks for sharing Ethan, I really enjoyed this one. I absolutely loved the wallpaper in the hallways 😍
I can always tell when you're super excited about an explore, because you forget some of the, "What's up you guys?" When you say it, I smile. When you forget because you're so excited, I grin. Thank you for mentioning the milk door. I just assumed it was where a fire extinguisher was kept, lol.
So wish that was my house i would keep every thing just like it is the 60's was a great time to be a kid
this house is perfect! all it needs is a deep cleaning
I’ve been waiting to see a fur coat left behind in a cedar closet. First channel to ever find one from what I’ve seen. Wow. That looks like it’s in nice shape too. A mink or sheared beaver with fox or coyote collar.
Edit: that looks like a GE Filter-Flo washing machine too!!!
Love the vintage fur coat!!!
I would love to have it!!
Also worth some money, but I would definately wear it!
SO cool! I’d love to see this place myself so I could take my time and reminisce!!!
Canada, must be booming up there in construction! I love that orange shag carpet, and that orangy wallpaper bathrm. *What's up Ethan*....u r cool.
Ethan is very cool and it’s bathroom
This is one of my all time favorite abandoned vids! Amazing house! I remember my grandparents houses looking like this when I was a child in 80s. But like u said, people move on and houses get renovated.
I wish you could have found out why on earth this house was left in 2018. They bagged up so much of their belongings only to leave it? And entire bedroom furniture sets left! Most people would have at least had a garage sale or posted online to get rid of what they didn’t want.
Oh! And the 1985 Madamoselle (sp?) looks exactly like the magazines my mom had out on our coffee tables.
Thanks for a great explore. This one was quite memorable:)
My grandma had green shag carpet. I recall raking the living room that no one sat in and family room. Those were wonderful memories 🙏🏾
You Definitely Have A Talent For This. Love The House, I Would Have Loved To See It In It's Day. Thanks For Sharing. Looking Forward To Your Next Adventure!
I don’t think the owners of this house threw anything away!
Hey Ethan NY fan, This is an incredible Time Capsule ! Loved the beautiful wall paper , shag carpets, furniture I can imagine a big family and a great life there at one time ! Maybe from Thailand ! Awesome find and I can tell you respect and love what you do. Thank you for another great video ...
Soooo cool! I don’t think you need to apologize for anything. You do you!
My favorite part? The groovy blue toilet lol. Great explore as always Ethan. Really appreciate your hard work. Love ya!
I don't think I have ever commented before but I had to take a minute to let you know how much I love your videos. I too am an old house buff. I love them all but turn of the century and mid century modern are my favs. However I grew up in the 70's and 80's so they are very nostalgic for me. Your a wonderful docent. Pretty sure your an old soul as well 😉. Thank you for the entertainment ❤️
You got me with the old fleecy fabric softener that was super cool. Idk why but I just love old laundry stuff/washers and dryers. Flocked wallpaper was awesome too. I’d love to see this place all restored/cleaned and staged with 60’s furniture that would be amazing
It's amazing how the power stays on somebody's got to be paying the bill
Those red and black curtains downstairs are EVERYTHING!
That left so much behind. Love the bar and sauna.
I love that wallpaper! And when you said it was flocked, my first thought was, I must have it!
The basement is the most original section of this house; that was pure '65 - curtains, deep aqua vinyl chairs, the sofa, etc.
This place could be put back together easily.
That fridge looks more early to mid '50s to me. Good video.
it would be awesome to have a fireplace in the basement! I live in Louisiana, so basements are not a thing here (not needed), so I'm fascinated with basements, especially ones where there's a kitchen, fireplace, etc. It's like another house inside of the house.
I love that you r young and appreciate old stuff! Very cool!
Thanks for sharing this house. I was born in 1965. COOL🥰👍❤️❤️
You are such a sweetheart to apologise for possibly offending anybody by saying oh my G... I was raised to always say oh my gosh so I do cringe inside when I hear somebody say it, so thankyou for being you!
Oh and fabulous place!! I've always loved the 60s and 70s homes, so much character and color!
