    That really was a gorgeous house but it is also very sad looking at their forgotten memories! It's nice that people like you keep their memory alive. I never understand why family members aren't interested in preserving their history. ☹️

    I can’t even stand how sad that such a grand home could be left to just rot away. All the antiques and original architecture would be worth a small fortune in total. Obviously not many people know about it or it would have been cleaned out and vandalized a long time ago. She must have been beautiful in her day. Horrible shame.

      It happens, a couple owns a beautiful old house. Either they have no children or the children don't live near by and don't care at all about their parent's home or possessions. Or the kids simply can't afford to maintain the house or the taxes or there are no jobs for them in the area.

    Depending on the state this house is in and others abandoned full of items, it is possible the last owner went into a nursing home and ended up with Medicaid to pay for their care. When that happens, these states have a Medicaid recoup clause and homesteads are taken by the state to recoup the funds. Now, the state is not interested in the house but the land it sits on. Many are never put on the market to be sold. It's one way of the state to take back ownership of the land.

    I loved hearing the old train pass through. Moments like that shouldn’t be wasted. Think of the time when that home was in its prime and the old Air Force pilot and his lovely wife in the home of their dreams, just relaxing and to hear that old train come through town was a symbol of a time that America was thriving and full of people that were proud if their heritage. That home is a prime example of what our parents and grandparents were all about. Family was a sacred thing. Freedom was accomplished becsgse if that young msn you see in those pictures risking his life, spending months at a time away from his beautiful wife that he no doubt missed dearly. I’m sure those old letters from him to her were sone of her prized possessions. I can only imagine the love those two had for one another. Very good video buddy. The best I have seen yet. It saddens me to think that old hoise is falling to shambles. I’m sure the old couple would be proud to see it preserved. Simply amazing.

      Children born after the boomer age don't want their parents old things. Few seem to even care about their heritage and family history. A few more generations and people will have no sense of what their forefathers endured to settle this land. Losing a lot of history.

    Thank you. Brought back memories of my parents who wrote love letters when my father was in WWII. I, their daughter, am now 74 years old. The fact their letters and WWII items are still in the house indicates that the last resident was probably their son who left everything as his parents had it. I get the feeling he had no children. It is possible that any relatives may have died without surviving children. Very sad that no one to retrieve these personal items before the house falls in.

    Heart breaking to see such a beautiful home falling apart. Equally saddening to see all of their things. Letters. Pictures. I bet he brought a lot of things home from other countries seeing he was military. Which brings me to wondering where his medals are. I pray family has them and continue to honor him. He definitely was reloading the ammo. I sold those along with the tool (wink) they go with. It was also common back then for them to reload their own as it was cheaper.

Growing up being cared for by older people they believed in saving their childrens shoes by bronzing them. They also make them into bookends. Those old hats were awesome. There are people that collect old hats. And they were in such good shape. The woodwork is stunning work.

Is there no family that wants to take on the responsibility of dealing with another’s belongings. You would think that if there were family that they would want things like family photo’s or a figurine. Heck, let me get to the old vintage Christmas stuff. There has to be tons in a house that size. Those floral rug’s all over that house have to be worth a pretty penny. What a shame that everything is just sitting there.

    The purpose of transom windows was to allow air flow. As fireplaces are for heating the house, transoms were for cooling. Heat rises and if it has nowhere to go, it comes back down, making sleeping in the summer miserable. So people would open their windows at night and allow whatever cool air came in to pass over them and out of the room via the transom window, making the room cooler and more pleasant to sleep.

    I don't understand why the family didn't go back for their possessions. I mean there's tons of family photos and stuff. You'd think the children or someone would want that stuff.

    This is one of my favorite house's, It's so beautiful and everything is vintage I'd really hate to see this house just rot away all those antiques even the clothes ect. The towns people should see if there is any family members that are alive and I guess can get the house. Even just to get the photos.. if there is no family. Then the town should have an auction to buy the house . It's worth saving. I love these homes you can sell the antiques to help with the costs of fixing the house. I wish I could buy it . Thank you very much for sharing this.

    The game with the 4 pockets was Karrom or Carrom I think. My mum had a board. You play with your fingers and flick a thick round disk/counter towards other round counters from your side of the board into one of the pockets. Kinda like finger pool. Great for siblings lol. Thank you for sharing as always .

Did they not have kids im devastated this place is just going to fall into disrepair if anyone is watching this video and you know these people have relations please get in contact with them dont let this property fall victim to its former self where we all wished it could of been saved i live in the uk and buildings like this home would of took over by the English Heritage. If i lived in that area i think i would find a way to purchase this house its to good to let go.

      From my experience with the elderly and also elderly relatives many people may not have had children or passed away suddenly and actually don’t have anyone to leave things to may have been in a nursing home or hospitalized for a long time and didn’t have an estate plan and because there’s a lot of illegal stuff involved leaving behind properties and belongings to be assumed by the next generation or friends or relatives sometimes there just isn’t anybody assigned to it. My parents have a dear friend who is elderly luckily he has my parents he never married never had kids was hospitalized for six months fortunately my parents took care of his estate even his bills without them if he passed his home literally would’ve went to no one And his home would’ve become one of these places- it is that easy unfortunately.

    You got me with the name of this video, I thought maybe they used the exterior for filming the most recent season! Looks so much nicer on the inside and really everything wrong with the outside looks cosmetic. Hopefully it hasn't deteriorated too much more since you were there and someone comes along and fixes it up if they haven't yet. Great video.

    This is simply a large home in South Carolina.
    Dad died in 2006. Property transferred to daughter, who lived there until her 2022 death. Nothing mysterious.
    Just yet another rural home that is unlikely to be economically feasible to fix up, full of "stuff" that the rest of the family may not value.

    I'd love to be able to buy the house and contents and a decent amount of land around it and tottally fix it up like brand new BUT keep it TRUE to how it was built, then add on another section of bed/bath rooms, and such, have a full big porch top and bottom.
    Then build another building in the same style, to be used as a museum to show case the belongings, and what have you BUT of course be VERY respectfull of past family (s) to not invaide their privacy of course.
    It would showcase the history of the house and property.
    Fix up the property with gardens, trees, real veg. & medicine plants gardens, walking pathways, outside seating, big garages, place to park.
    Then use the property to live at, have a bed and breakfast, maybe a place folks could have weddings and stay at a wedding /full cottage in a pretty & private place on the property
    💎I would also see about getting the place listed as a Historical land mark.💎
    I'd like to have enough land with it to have and old fashioned carrage house/working barn or some horses, chickens, cows. Folks could have some nice carriage rides.
    BIG IMPORTANT THING that I'd like to make SURE OF is hopefully have a working plan that the house/grounds would be SAFE and well maintained after I'm gone, till then it would be great to share it with as many people as possible AND NOT CHARGE CRAZY HIGH RATES TO GET TO STAY THERE FOR A TIME.
    Well yeah, it's just a dream for now but the house deserves to go on. Folks who put so much work into building it so long ago and those past who've lived therr, now long dead, I think they'd be happy to see the above 'dream' come true.
    How's that dream sound?

    Thanks for the the video tour of this Victorian-era mansion somewhere in the South. Many of these abandoned houses are, like museums, so old-fashioned and yet it's so sad to see them deteriorating over time. And a lot of stuff left behind, perhaps the last owner was the son of the couple who lived there. Shame that their relatives didn't want this well-built house.
    Maybe someday a person who can afford it will fix it up for his/her own use, who knows? 😔
