Its a shame something once loved and valued is no longer. What a gorgeous home❤
yes this was my house, my mother she was like 20 year old
still loved, just in a different way
It would probably cost a fortune to renovate. So sad it was left to deteriorate.
Twenty five years ago I bought a run down Victorian house and saved it.
Good 4 U!!! Wish more people who can would!!!💜💜💜
Did it cost you alot to save it?
can i see a pic of your house you saved 😊
If you could go back 25 years would you do it again?
What if it was a horror house!?
I love older homes with lots of little rooms, nooks and crannys
I would love to go in and clear it out, so many things you can tell about the person who lived there
I would have liked to see what that mansion looked like when it was new or back in the early years after it was first built .
Yes, what a sad end for such a majestic home.
When they put this place up for sale after the owner died, they put a lot of the stuff that had been piled on the porch inside the house. Older Google Maps photos show the front yard full of junk even a car up on blocks. I couldn't help but think that the original family would have been floored to see this beautiful home basically trashed. I really think that there's a mix of what the original family left in the house and what the new family must have brought in themselves.
Kind of looked like they were hoarders..
where is this house located?
The house was built with love, but after a certain time, it wasn't maintained due to lack of funds.
Chimneys seem to get boarded up not only because of the installation of HVAC; but because often the chimneys crumble after so many years. They need to be repointed occasionally.
Your roof is an extremely important part of your house. As soon as water gets in your house, you must rectify the situation ASAP. Whether it's flooding or rain. Roof leaks generally start as small and fixable! "No roof, no house" a roofer told me.
If you buy any property, you will need to be prepared for all of life's surprises, good and bad.
If you can afford to do so, get multiple inspectors. Seems like they find a lot more wrong; when they're not secretly aligned with the realtor, or the title company.
You should really get a survey to make sure your property lines are accurate. It's expensive, but you should really know everything about the house before you sign.
Even if you are buying a brand new home, everything should be checked! Home builders can be sloppy. Subcontractors can be worse. There is too much at stake, for you or anyone living in the home.
Maintain all your house systems, just like your vehicle, on a maintenance schedule.
Find a credit union or bank that has a home equity line of credit. The lowest % you can find.
Build this credit line over time so that when you need a new roof, have to fix pipes, replace appliances, you have that line of credit available.
@@mermaid2014 Well sure lack of funds. They loved Barry aka Obama and Michael aka Michelle while they destroyed the housing industry... get what u vote for...
@@mermaid2014Great,solid and Sound advice!🙌🏼
The reason why there Victorian houses have so much beautiful woodwork, the jigsaw was invented at the turn of the century.
A beautiful Victorian home ❤ I've always loved Victorian houses. As a kid I would sit and draw Victorian homes. ❤
can't believe the electricity is on in an abandoned home
I can’t believe the bulbs hasn’t burned out?
I've daydreamed about rescuing an abandoned house. This one would do very nicely.
Love to see old Victorian homes. Regarding the rooms on the first floor, one could have been a sitting room, a parlor, a conservatory, dining room, library, etc. Thanks for the tour!
The victorian that was in ky family had a teo story foyer, livingroom, sitting room, dining room, kitchen with a big pantry. 5 bedrooms with one being on the main floor. ONE bathroom 😌
No one leaves everything behind unless there was aging death, car accident or a haunting.
This home is beyond saving. When the last owners bought it, it probably needed repairs and renovation. Just got too much for them probably and was foreclosed
I love that it’s a Victorian house. A bad storm probably hit this home. Beautiful Victorian Home and in the middle of a town. Someone needs to restore this home. It has good bones from 1800’s and somewhat still standing 💯👏🏾
Beautiful woodwork and antique furniture. I’ve often wondered what keeps ppl from going in and stealing all that stuff? Who pays the electric bill? If property taxes aren’t paid, and bank foreclosed, why wasn’t it put on market and sold? If it was paid for why would the family have left? Just questions I’ve always wondered about. Keeping this family in my prayers! God Bless them. Seeing this makes me want to cry for that poor family.
When a property is bank-owned - which in banking is called "REO" for 'real estate owned = had been foreclosed on - it definitely gets put up for sale, but properties in really bad condition such as this one sometimes sit on the bank's books for a long time because the house is in such bad shape, no one has the money to fix it up or thinks it's worth it to fix it up. Banks will sometimes keep the electricity on also, hoping that may be useful in getting the property sold & having put the utilities in their name. And the REO departments of some banks sometimes just don't follow up on the details of their properties & lose track of the details like the electricity being left on for years for no use anymore.
@@playhooky Thanks for the information. I appreciate it.🙏
It appears to me that the house could have been hit by a tornado and had no insurance and possibly injuries or death of the owners occurred thus the reason for abandonment and everything left as is. It’s a sad reality of life that these thing happen more than we realize. Too bad because it was once a beautiful and grand home.
@@nancynorton9119 True that! I never thought of that. I will pray for their souls in case that is what happened. I wondered why the back area and kitchen area were so torn up and rotten looking. God Bless!🙏
Yes! I wonder the same thing.. I live in New Orleans and following hurricane Katrina (and before the city had a chance to be refurbished) there were many houses that were exposed to the elements and especially thieves.
These scumbags would completely strip houses (and even cemeteries) of all historic memorabilia.
Luckily, most of these artifacts such as iron mantle pieces, cypress doors, frames, etc would stay within the local area and would eventually wind up at the architectural salvages throughout the city and state.
FYI the decorative woodwork and old mansions is called gingerbread. Have to respect the ornate woodwork. Great craftsmanship. Love your show!
The woodwork in the doorways 19:01 is called a spandrel. Beautiful millwork done in that home.
That looks like eviction/forclosure. All the things left behind mid packing.
Exactly my thoughts. 👍
I'm thinking tornado damage then nature took over.
My favorite part was the unusually shaped staircase, leading down to the front entryway. That made it both an interesting and pretty staircase.
This house wasn't frozen in time, it was undergoing decay as time moved on.
I’d love to buy that house,, old Victorians are full of history and charm ❤
Wow so sad such a beautiful house. Thank you Big Bangz. ❤
Love that staircase. Unique shape
Yeah that staircase was epic. But can you imagine how incredible hard it would have been to carry a king size mattress up all those steps? With the curbs winding around it?!
Love the opening with a Bible verse America really needs that now . 🇺🇸
Have you ever read the bible home boy lol
The world 😊
As per comment above you can tell it needs it Big time. God Bless!
Yes i see a lots of Bible reference or a touch of Christianity in every abandoned houses. Older generations were really religious we don't see that now in Western countries.
@@younglife4089 I know, and it’s really sad. So many ppl live for the world now instead of God. Especially the younger generation.
The facade and walkway leading up to the home is so charming.
I went on a tour of a mansion on a former cotton plantation in New Orleans. They told us it was a sign of wealth to have other colors of paint besides white , that's why they use a lot of different colors
My great grandfather bought a victorian house back in 1900, it was in our family for 70 years, i got to see it again last year after not seeing it for 30 years. I would love to go back inside again, i love that old house😍
I bet the new owners would let you in if you told them the situation
Instead of the people’s left behind things I’d like to see the woodwork around doors & windows, wood ceilings in the 1st floor bedroom and closeups of fireplaces. Chandelier at the beginning is 90’s era
Yes yes yes
Those old chairs are called “ wing chairs” & are more upper crust if you will, still common in more stately homes
Thank you for pointing that our😊
I love them!
Those particular chair are 80's budget quaility. True wing back chairs will have more quality wood trim and better upholstery fabric
Please show/talk more of the architecture and not all the leftover junk and trash. Maybe a little more info on history on this home. The woodwork is called gingerbread on the outside. Fretwork on the inside.
I wonder how u find these old
homes.
Yes yes yes
Nice comment. Thank you fi the information! I was thinking the same thing would have liked more history on the place. All his places. It leaves you hanging with to many questions. Why even bring it to us?😂
@@beneiseoleinmheart5614 it is a bit frustrating not to get any in depth history..
You'd love Bros of decay. Those guys are the most professional and through I've ever watched.
This is a Victorian home but with 80's,90's furniture. Some are 1930s bedroom suites. I believe this is a 2 family duplex. Upstairs was a storm door in the hallway. I grew up in a Victorian home, and most walls are white. This family chose those outrageous colors. Its grandeur has been lost for years. It's a shame. Especially in the South. The folks can't take care of old homes, and the termites and nature take over.
I have watched many people show abonament houses but u are the best. I watch your videos all the time. Be blessed
I cant believe they left all that beautiful furniture behind! Id love to have a lot of it!
What kills me the most - more than the home itself wasting away, are the family photos! These are very precious & should be w/the family! Hopefully, they could find their way back to them someday! 😢
I'd love to see someone buy this house and document the process to restore it
Yup. Sad to see it’s going decayed
100%
It’s very sad to look at a couple that looks young that would lose everything. I’m a foreclosure they would still be able to take their personal things. It’s almost like the disappeared without a trace 😢
Mi concern exactly!! I believe that were ran off fi commercial development. 😢😢😢
everytime im watching abnadoned houses or mansion i feel like that im connected to it ... ilove watching it ❤️💯
My theory for what it's worth: so many "dens" and king size beds tells me that there were multiple families living here. Each family had a living area and a sleeping area.
That’s exactly what I am thinking makes a lot of sense🤷🏽♀️
Ugh! I hate when people do that!
@@Jenn-io3it you hate when people have a roof over their heads? odd.
Love the staircase! And all the gingerbread! Absolutely beautiful.
Dude, I really like your work, but I must say, the more videos I watch, the more I want to suggest please, Please don't move the camera around so much/so quickly. It actually makes me a bit dizzy and a bit difficult to follow you. Thanks for considering ~Namaste!
Slow pan
I loved this property. I just loved it. The most wonderful people, the and I mean the best concept of living in the US to me. I lived it safe community small town and loved it. The best people and this property was or is one thousand percent that, just the best property.
These are truly the nicest and most wonderful wonderful people.
I’m not going to be able to watch. I get motion sickness real easy.
OH WOW! You do not know true your words were today at the first of this video. My son-in-law died last night, suddenly. I guess he thought he would love forever because he left a wife and six kids. I love victorian's so I saw this within an hour of you posting this
My condolences ❤.
❤️
So sorry for your loss
In Jesus name may there be peace by the Holy Spirit and hedge of protection around you all may the Lord give beauty for ashes and peace and wisdom where there is turmoil❤
God’s presence can be revealed in amazing places…like the intro of this explore 🙏🏻 find peace in His words ❤
The lights are on because they are solar lights,. They have sun capturing cells inside that converts to light when turned on.The power was turned off.. That's why you had those battery operated switches. I also saw a solar inverter. It looks like a car stereo preamp. You missed that.They were using a solar panel to connect to the inverter and then they could use it to operate the stereo, lights, microwave, or even a small refrigerator. I love watching you exploring. Keep it up! 💪
I just love those Victorian houses. Looks like the inside has been tossed for some reason. Many years ago a friend of mine and I discovered an abandoned home sort of like this one. We went inside, poked around. The closets were full of men's clothing; many 3-pc suits, most were herringbone, some were double breasted suits. Looks like something from the 1920's. I went upstairs and when I started to walk across the room, I felt the floor sag slightly so I immediately turned around and went back downstairs. We found an old ledger from a general store, the last entry was in 1861. We were very amused at the prices and how they kept the record of what was bought. I swear whoever wrote in that ledger had the most beautiful, exquisite handwriting I've ever seen. The ink was brown, perhaps it was originally blue but turned brown and the pages had yellowed but still in good shape. I felt a connect of some sort with whoever made the entries as I held that ledger. As we left, we discovered something odd, and that was a live rooster in a burlap bag in the back yard. Poor thing had been in the small sack so long that it could not extend it's legs to stand up. It never made a sound and we ended up just leaving it there, freed from that sack. Pretty cruel of someone to do that but we knew others had been to the house but didn't know when.
Sorry to hear about your son n -law. I pray for extra comfort for your daughter and her 6 children in the days, weeks, and moths ahead. 🙏
I would love to live in an old Victorian, but the hidden repair costs waiting to be uncovered would give anyone nightmares
i wonder does anyone from the family sees these. id love to know why they had to leave everything so abruptly. awesome video
I just posted the same question 😊 Ir would be interesting to know their reaction from seeing their own home.
The only thing I can think of is 1 . Someone that paid the bills died. 2. They were evicted 3. It’s extremely haunted and they just got out as quickly as possible. 4. Something horrible happened there and they didn’t want to stay there or to be reminded by the items in the house. 5. They won the lottery and left all the stuff behind and bought everything new 😂
@@AllieTrott right! i wonder how they would feel randomly coming across this video
@TheWoowoo09 Yea, but I guess we are not allowed to ask that question unless I download another app that I would never use again. That is a great way to treat your subscribers. I feel so special now...NOT!
why doesn’t the Town step in and do something about this vacant house?
I agree that multiple families possibly lived there. Would be great to dig deeper into the last people that lived there. How did they make a living? Does the bank own this property now? Alot of questions come to mind. I am surprised contents of house,I would think an estate sale wasn't done?
Yes! left us very confused! I almost unsubscribed.
What a shame, looks like the last owners trashed and neglected this old once beautiful home!
So many antiques in that house. Sad to see it sitting there and belongings just left behind.
On the fireplace, you’re probably right about it being because of getting central heating, in a lot of old homes that used to rely on fireplaces for the main source of heat, once they get central heating if the fireplace isn’t used regularly they will close them off to warm or cool are escaping and help regulate the temperature of the house.
And on the baskets, a lot of older women, especially southern women, like to collect baskets, they’re not necessarily Easter baskets
Microwave is creepy….ghosts? At least there wasn’t a dead body in the fridge.
The reason that all that stuff is left in that home is because the people skipped out on the house payment and couldn’t take all the big stuff. All they could take was what’s in the vehicles. They had two cars or two trucks no big ones didn’t want to attract any attention. They packed up very little and skipped out on the payment of the house, if you would check, the house would probably be costing more than what it was actually worth
With that much stuff left behind , they left in a hurry and with fear .
Like it may have been haunted.
@@WildKraftyAotearoa that’s was what I was thinking too
@@WildKraftyAotearoa a hurricane coming or tornado did hit the back if the first floor...
@@NatalieRabuzin Oh my word!
Seeing the power on in a collapsing house is creepy… 😮
Power should be off for safety...the microwave still saying please close or something similar...creepy...
Just wanted to give this brother a shout out for the best video we truly Love the word sent out to us so inspiring AWESOME 👍
This place has had a lot of squatters! Owners don’t usually leave a place in this type of mess.
Looks like a storm destroyed the house to me. Definitely 2000 or so on. WET BOTTOM FLOOR. no power for weeks. sometimes months. I am 70 yrs. and live in the south. seen a LOT!
Carter, those are not a bunch of different stereos, heehee. That is one stereo with separate components like the turntable, the tape deck and/or cd player, the amplifier, the equalizer, et cetera. That's how our stereos used to look back in the day and they were cool as hell! Stereos with the most stacks of components were a source of pride and bragging rights! I miss my old stereo and giant speakers!! Wayyyy better sound than the crap everyone uses today! 😊😊😊
Hi BigBankz 🙋🏽. It's always good to see you.👋🏽. I'M glad you are not alone on this explore.👍🏽
Victorian homes. Where not painted primary colors. The. Paint job in that house is atrocious!!
Oh thank for saying what I was thinking. I was a painter for 40 years and painted my share of victorian homes and they were NEVER painted such hideous colors
So true, all Disgusting colors. Victorians are largely off-white & lots of beautiful wood
Vile.
It looks like someone grabbed a few gallons of paint that were being thrown away (on trash day) from the street curb..
And this is the result.
It's a shame they can't restore that house, I have such a deep love of Victorian houses, this makes me sad 😥
why can't they restore it? It would cost big bucks but it could still be restored, yes?
@@originaloldfashionedtarot of course it can be restored but you would to have very deep pockets
You need a carpenter during the life of a house that can duplicate and create custom pieces to keep the period as well as a hardware boneyard for the trim. Renovating is difficult, time consuming and expensive if the house is in too much disrepair and so out of code it's dangerous. Hard to get insurance as it is, this would be almost impossible. No ins=no mortgage.. Have watched several people buy and try to restore and ultimately give up.
Definitely decorated in the 80's. Mauve and smoke blue everywhere.
Huge rooms...small kitchen...the house has probably been threw several hurricanes...water damage...ceiling and wall water damage...unfortunately...the back part looks like it got the worse of a tornado possible...
Very well done! We can only imagine how the lives were while they lived there! Thank you!
This is a more recent foreclosure case. I do property inspections and I see things left all the time.
The squatter was probably in the attic or a dark bedroom. Did you notice on the second dark bedroom there was a circuit breaker that was ON? My two areas I always want to see are the attic and basement. Loved the stairs.
Your kindness to the home and previous owners is top notch!
If walls could talk!
It's horrific that they painted all the woodwork and fireplaces with paint. Horrible colors of paint.
Beautiful place again such a shame it's left like this love your channel best wishes from Ireland ✨☘️
Love the fretwork at base of the stairs and at the front door! I would love to see the fretwork unpainted though. The stairs are incredible also!
The sewing machine is a Japanese made Viscount from the 50's or 60's. Work horse machine
Someone should call the guys who renovate Victorian houses on HGTV.
Great video! I think several families were living here! That would explain all the sofas, chairs & king-sized beds…..also, each room seems to have a different vibe. Maybe multi-family decor….
Beautiful house!!! And the amount of antique furniture in there is NUTS!!!!!!!
This home is beautiful but I’m sure it was something back in the day. Sad seeing a lot of there belongings still in the home. Have a great day.
Who's been paying the electric bill?!?! And how do these places get so messy?! That HAS to be from ransacking. I don't think the family was living in that clutter, all the dishes in the cabinets knocked over, etc. Just amazing. Can you take things out of these homes and salvage them? Or donate them? All those books and clothing? Do you find out who owns these properties before going in? In Oklahoma, as you may know, we have a sort of finders keepers law that let's you claim oroperty that is abandoned for a certain length of time.
I love all your content! Although we found you only recently. Thankyou for scripture at the beginning...one never knows who heart needs to hear these...
It always amazes me how places like this are left to the elements of westher and time......would love to have $$$ to restore them.
Ghosts of the past.....
💜
The back part of the house looks like an add on to the original house. The is a lot of water damage in the very back of the house. I also wonder if the people who owned the house rented rooms out to individuals. Could have been young men who played sports. In the back part of the house the ceilings are much lower than what we saw in the front part of the house. In the original part of the had very nice wood ceilings.
A word for your architecture vocabulary is fretwork. The carved woodwork in the doorways would be called fretwork.
I love old Victorian houses. This was once an American style Castle!!! I would have loved to have lived here in the early days of this house. This was my favorite of your explores to date. I love your channel. Keep up your good work!!! ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
It's so sad that no one could fix it up. Thank you so much for showing us these wonderful old houses! So much cool stuff, I don't have a favorite.
The baby carriage is called a Pram
The carriage is also called a carriage. The word Pram is used mostly in England. They also use Pram for a stroller.
👍👍👍🩵🩵💛💛❤️❤️ loved the video great to see you, keep up the good work
GOD Bless You and
Your Family
Stay Safe and Well ❤️
Phone books have the years on them. Loved the tour
It’s so beautiful I hope someone buys it and fixes it up before it falls apart it just needs tlc
Two guys already both it for 350,000. A renovated it as a project. Then resold it fi a profit.
What a splendid home this must have been. And all the pieces of antique furniture…woe is me! It’s such a crying shame that it’s been left to rot.
It's good to see another one of your tours, I feel there hasn't been so many lately. I haven't seen one of those steering wheel locks for quite a few years. People don't seem to use them here in Australia anymore. I would love to know the life history of this beautiful home . Enjoy your videos, keep up the good work.
Some of that furniture looked original to the house. Very sad to see it falling apart. I wonder was it a structural issue or they got sold a home with some bad issues and were unaware. Looks like multiple generations of the current family lived there. That house is going to cave in. Very sad. That electricity being on, I would think, would be a hazard. Back in the day it was probably breathtaking.
What a beautiful frame that this Lord supper is in wow❤
That house is beautiful such a shame it's going to pot ...the upstairs was nice but not the colors for me .the wood work is fabulous.
I also love the stairs and the down stairs wow thank you for sharing with us take care till next time. 😊😊😊😊
Sad end for a once lovely home. We'll never know why they left in such a hurry.
Did you notice all the mirrors in the living room downstairs. At least 6!!
Shocked, so much left. Surprise Historical Society does not step in to save this beauty. LOL, 26:13 to see you in action...
Sad, 2nd family owners couldnt maintain home-its like they just gave up
Power??? Room at 27:50 is the Parlor. Basically a living room. The power really has me stumped, though that makes no sense.
This must have been beautiful in it's day. Thanks for the explore was very interesting.
What a beautiful home! WHY did they leave the antique pieces? And so many of their belongings? Someone needs to save this place!!!
Haven’t seen any of your recent adventures. So happy to see this one!
The paintings the underside of the porch ceiling blue, is to prevent carpenter bees from drilling into your wood
Why do people leave these homes and leave everything behind??? Why don't families come in and empty out the possessions? Or even the county?
My guess, from the looks of this house, is that the residents were unexpectedly arrested and put in jail and that's why everything is left behind. Parents were probably too old to empty out the house and relatives probably either didn't have the keys or just didn't need anything in it, so it was all just abandoned.
These old houses are probably still on fuse boxes and they pulled the fuses for the dangerous parts.
The house is called Second Empire- Italanti
The 1870- 1910 era style was popular
The exterior yard. What a mess. Deceased tree is a fire hazard, other trees as bushes need to be pruned.
New landscaping, would not be that complicated.
New roof. Repair siding, the porch etc.
The interior, some rooms need new sheet rock, walls and ceilings.
Sand floors, red mahogany stain would make those rooms stand out. Especially with the era wall paper
😂😂😂
Its refurbishable
Beautiful home
Thanks for the explore
