TEACHERS ABANDONED HOUSE w/ CRAZY FIND IN ATTIC *Filled W/ Personal Belongings & Antiques

- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2018
- The house I explore was built sometime in the 1800s to early 1900s and was a very interesting style of home. The last owner of it was a local high school teacher, who rented out the property until he passed on sadly. The place has just been used for farm land but unfortunately the land is now in the process of being developed for a new housing development.

10:42 Kappy: "Look at that old tv!! " and I'm thinking, "look at that beautiful chest of drawers" 😁
This house is starting to crumble and there's one or 2 pieces of furniture that need rescuing.
@ 12:20 notches are called dovetailing. Shaped like a doves tail
@@robinforbes3852 I never knew that this is why its called Dove tailing...of course 🤦♀️ Thank you for explaining.
I want old tv
@@Gurpreet-yl6ic hahaha 👍🏼😊
@@nicolarollinson4381 what happen
Enjoy your style. An old soul in a young man. You take your time and focus on the details. Appreciate the background. Can understand not giving locations but the stories of the people make it so much more meaningful. Great job!
I was quite amazed at your filming style. Other videos are jumpy and go through a house rather fast where I end up nauseous. You were very slow paced and paused at the interesting things you came across. I really enjoyed your video and thank you for sharing.
Straightshooter I agree. I felt like I was there too. Very refreshing
I agree! He is amazing!
Where is this house
15:28 its called dovetailed.
Loved seeing the Charles Shultz Peanuts character mold figures. Those are legendary. Huge landmark law suites that established copywriting laws were made over those figurines.
He’s right, Kappy! You are the best!
That place is loaded with valuable antiques and collectibles! It's such a shame it's all slowly decaying. My late grandparents' house has roof supports with the bark still on them. My grandfather told me years ago the trees used to construct the house were cut on the property. I believe the same is true for this house too. I wish someone would buy the house and restore it, but from the looks of some parts of it, it may be too far gone now.
That woodworking is called dovetailing, but tongue and groove is what you meant. Thanks for the great explore. That drawer close up showed me the awesome sparkle floor that I'm dying over!!
I'm in love with that beautiful chest of drawers the TV set was sitting on.
I just commented the same.
It needs rescuing
The television is gorgeous as well
1970's chemistry set in the attic. Parents actually bought those for their kids.
I had one when I was about 12. Long time ago!
Some one did a lot of sewing, and in the room with the old washing machine there is a ceramic kiln near the window! awesome furniture suprised an antique dealer hasn't already been there!
I also spotted the kiln, before entering there the Peanuts dolls ad be half painted
That oven looks like it's straight out of Laura Petrie's kitchen (Dick Van Dyke show). 1963-ish. And you dodged a bullet going in there with that "No Trespassing" sign on the outside of the kitchen door lol. I'd have to say that this house was last occupied by the same family from the mid to late 1940s through to the early 1970s. The wallpaper is the style we did in the late 60s - papering the walls but painting the trim in a coordinating color. The orange carpet, def 70s. The stove, early 60s. The glass book cabinet in the attic is a holdover from the "waterfall" era of the late 1920s. Probably a parent or grandparents hand-me-down. But notice the 1950s "atomic era" furnishings in what I would guess to be the master bedroom where the vines are pulling the window out. That sewing machine on the first floor was from the late 60s, early 70s and probably also went down into the cabinet. The other sewing machine was like the one my grandmother had in the 30's. (I'm 59). The same family had this house for at least 40-50 years. They last updated in the mid to late 60s. That's my guess. Anyway, nice find. I'm keeping the link :) I've got a notepad open to save links of the houses I like to go back and watch again and a possible floor plan for the house I'm going to build. Thanks for all the great ideas!
I would love to have that chest of drawers that the old tube tv sits on top of in that bedroom. That is nice antique furniture! That old stand mixer in the attic was so awesome! Nice find!!
Gilbert Chemistry set from the early 70s.
There was a lot of neat stuff in this house.
Bravo! What an fantastic house! You never cease to amaze me. It's like a trip into the past. Speechless about the belongings left, uniquely beautiful. I could go on and on but I won't. I would say that you've outdone yourself but your videos are all excellent. Thank you.
Kappy, my luv, you are young ;) The green appliances were all the rage in the early 70's. The side by side frig is circa 1972. The "old piece of furniture" downstairs is a china cabinet not from the 1800's but from around 1940. The sewing machine downstairs is 1950's, the one upstairs is 1940's(westinghouse one) The old TV, was likely early 80's. I had one similar in high school. I graduated 1982(now you know how old i am ;) That old kitchen aid mixer in the attic, well that is probably the most valuable thing in that house. People collect those and pay a pretty penny for one in that good of shape. Keep on doing what you do. I thoroughly enjoyed this video-this is the first of yours I've seen. I will have to keep watching now that I have found yours
OMGosh, that dining table in the front room is beautiful!!!So is the chest of drawers in the bedroom. The piece in the attic with the books in it made me cringe. So many beautiful antiques.GOSH! Beautiful home and furnishings. Great vid. Thanks for going SLOW. Thanks for taking us along.
I loved the old school desk in the attic. Those are the kind of desks we had when I was in grade school from 1970-1977. They were there before I moved to Kentucky in 1970 so those kinds of desks are very old.
Wow, that old dresser the t.v. was on, is really nice. The room seemed to look cleaner than the rest of the house; oddly.
wow! so many things i haven't seen since i was a child! reminds me of my grandma & gramps old house over 90yrs old. thank you for the blast from the past!! 👍😊
I love the design in the bedroom with the TV on! It looks very clean awww The old antiques are breathtaking 😊
Oh yeah that thing in the attic is a drum peddle for a large drum. The chemicals my be from a science teacher! You da man kap!
Was a box up there too that had the 'Hohner' logo. They make harmonicas, organs, guitars,and band instruments - including DRUMS.
this place is amazing! It must be quite an adventure to be able to explore these places in person
You know with all the homeless we have throughout this world there's far far too many abandoned houses this is ridiculous cuz a lot of them could have been used instead of letting them rot and go back to Mother Nature people could be living in some of them it's so sad to see
Jeanne Phifer sadly greed makes this impossible they would NEVER do this because there’s no profit in it
Some places allow that. Not enough, but some. A group of people do work on the house in exchange for rent then do odd jobs (not enough money to pay high rents) and pool their money while they're getting back on their feet to pay for bills and food. The reason that idea is not getting off the ground is insurance companies. A landlord will create the contract so that everything is legit but his/her insurance company writes it down as a boarding/care home and ups the premiums. But the landlord will only do this until he's got free work done then he evicts them. But, theoretically, its usually about a year and they should be on their feet by then, too. Get rid of greedy assed insurance brokers and this could take off. "You wash my back, I wash yours" kinda thing.
@thomas wolfe But yet, warmer than the outdoors I bet!
I encourage you to watch other videos where there were obviously homeless people living there at one time. They would rummage and break things. They did not leave the place better than they found it.
Looks like homeless living in there now
I'm never first...always 420!! Any way love this vid. The wood trim at the top is called crown molding. The grooves in the drawers is called dove tail. I love all that old furniture. The farmer doing the field , is that his place? I want that old hardware , and that furniture. I'll pass on the avacado stove..lol. your the best kap.
If I ever won lottery I would buy up every abandoned house you have shown and preserve them !!
The furniture is put together with dove tail. The wood interlocks.
Diane Miller No...it's tongue and cheek . Just like there's logs from tree branches lol. I'm so bad. He's silly though. Got a good giggle.
Diane you are right, it's dovetail. Beautiful pieces of furniture left.
@@apriltvenstrup5702 tongue and groove
You are right. You know more than me. Couldn't figure out the name.
@@amkummel7257 she was joking like Kappy said....😂
I love the old wallpaper. The dressers and China cabinet are antiques! ☺👍 💙
I too have to say that your film work is good as you zone in on things like door knobs that we no longer see today and fireplaces,woodwork etc..really appreciate ...most urban film like they are in a hurry ,,zap ,zap...and the ones always asking for money. ...anyhow thank you ❤️☺️🎆
Great vid! The first room looks like things were packed up n someone rummaged through them. Seems some of the floors not very safe yet the attic looked fine. Thanx
Amazes me that family goes through but don’t take out the expensive old retro furniture or appliances that are in great condition if washed up! Great find dude!
I always wonder what must have happen in these peoples lives for them to have just walked out of their homes leaving practically everything behind. ??? Thanks for a great video.
It's called old age, dementia, nursing hm, death....those people didn't just walk away....
Elmo Trex Where are their relatives, executer of the estate, etc. ? If the were place in a nursing home some one had to put them there.
When a person is put into a nursing hm or dies other family members get greedy.....things can get held up in the legal system or the family or the trustee decides no one can have anything or the family decides it's way too much wk cuz they live out of town and lead such a busy life....This happen to my family, people that u least expect turn on eachother, when money and things are involved.....
Death
Ian Y Gath I think this is gonna happen more often in the future. When one lives life surrounded only by self and ME, especially in this generation of not relying on having families to live with purpose. Plus social media, and google have taken elders knowledge on customs away. People are now obsessed with it, even though it creates more isolation. it’s only gonna get worse. Except in the future you won’t see sewing machines, China, finely made furniture. Instead it will all be crap from amazon, and soulless, uninteresting items. All in all. It certainly isn’t going to end well.
This place had some cool older furniture. I notice the roof had lightning rods.
Dawn M it has be 30s because mine house has same thing
Gorgeous house,couple of nice prices of furniture there too.Thank you Kappy
Excellent video as usual! 10 thumbs up on this one!
I had the same eagle light switch plate growing up in the 60's!
I would love to have those old dishes. And that furniture, some of it is still good and worth quite a bit of money. That upstairs bedroom with the light colored furniture was too cool! You have to go back though, i need to see what kind of books are in the attic bookcase.
Rhonda Beigert Yeah! At 2:22 those special occasion dishes were wrapped in paper, probably never used. What a shame. Amazing find!
Take them Merry Christmas!
Baseboard heaters. That dates the house in the mid seventies. Or at least when it was added. Lots of cool things about this house. Great furniture 👍 thanks for the tour.
The chemicals are from an old Gilbert chemistry set. I got one for Christmas in the early 1960s. The drawer construction is called tongue and groove. Did you notice the lightning rods on the roof?
You amaze me with the houses you find I loved everything in that house the furniture was beyond cool there were so many styles. I could have stayed forever just looking at everything
Loved it ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Another great explore thanks Kappy , i watch as many of your videos every morning before I have to leave for the day . I can't think of a better way to start my day !! It makes getting up at 4 am easier !!!
Thank you Kappy !!! You have a great style when filming...you don't move around like a manic rat on speed like so many other explorers do! It's a real treat and pleasure watching your very interesting and informative videos!!!👍👏😃
➡ Another thing...you don't speak just for the sake of it either.
I enjoy hearing you get quite exited at sight 👀 of old furniture (the term for old furniture put together without nails is called "dovetail") & fireplace mantles and of course old door handles!! Keep exploring! Stay safe. Vanessa😎🐨,South Australia
Wow, how'd I miss this one? Lots of cool stuff in there. The avocado kitchen and the sour apple green tub scream 60's, probably the last major renovation. Great explore!
I JUST FELL THROUGH THE FLOOR , THAT'S COOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
some good old stuff in there nice one ✌👍
I want to take a bath after Being in that place. Lots of great furniture You do a good job showing us
That was an old chemistry set in the attic with all of the chemicals and test tubes. Awesome finds.
I had a similar set as a kid. my mom was always afraid I'd accidentally create a bomb.
Nice, I didn’t know what it was
That’s the one I wanted for Christmas when I was eight. My mom was afraid I’d make LSD, because that was the myth of the times...
Totally interesting house. Thanks for the video. Love the old furniture.
Great video! Cool old house with good vibe! Thanks, good job!👍👩🏭👍
I would love to see what the house looked like before it was abandoned. Great video
Love this video, especially when you focus on small details like doorknobs and light switches. My parents had avocado green kitchen appliances when I was a kid.
Looks like late 50's, remodeled 60/70's, the wood finish at the top of the walls is crown mouldings. I really liked this video,looks just like my grandmas house...fake brick...wallpaper, furniture and even the knobs in the bathroom.. you got a super cute voice too
And the lumber in the attic is mill ends, wow! Just a awesome house thanks for sharing
Hi Kappy, good find loved the old furniture in there!
My Gosh, I love your videos, always look forward to watching them!! Your definitely one of my very favorites!!!
Once AGAIN Great Video Kappy!!!!!
Love some of the furniture in this place😊
Wow what a big chemistry set!
Great house. Furniture is done with tongue and groove. Can’t find furniture like that anymore. Everything is glued and nailed. Love your videos. Brings back many memories. Thank you so much.
Constance Roma Tongue and groove is usually used for floors, ceilings and walls. The furniture is dovetail!
Diane Miller sorry, had two mini strokes and I couldn’t think of the name for that. My husband did woodworking on the side, and I should’ve known it was dovetail. Just misremembered. Can’t always remember the right words.
Constance Roma It's all good! I worked with my husband for 30 years in his cabinet shop, is the reason I knew it. I pray you are recovering from your strokes!!!
now that was a cool explore!!!
Tongue and groove, & dovetails ~ the furniture is just amazing! It looks like beautiful old farmhouse that the husband passed away first, & the wife was left to care for things, but unable to do so after a time. What a lovely find! I can't imagine the family didn't want that gorgeous furniture, though, wow.
I can this this house being real cute at one time. Thanks Kappy!
Another great find Kappy! So much stuff everywhere. I like the tv that's sinking into the floor. I really liked the light switch cover with the eagle. I'm just so grateful you didn't fall through the floor. Great explore!
Gosh I Love Old Farms House Land that it sits on....Magnificent
I ❤️your videos, keep them coming! It's like a memory or a blast from the past or something.
Awesome explore Kappy. I love your videos, you always find such interesting places, full of fascinating things. Thank you .
It's not called "tongue and cheek" lol.... Its called "tongue and groove".... Made me laugh though 😂
It breaks my heart, that place looks like it could be restored if someone came in to do the work, and it can be liveable again.
Those TV's especially the 1 on that dresser in the bedroom look like they still work, I'd consider going back in there with some friends and taking 1 home plugging it in and testing it out, not that it will work with the hole TV switch from analog to digital.
Tongue and groove for the drawers - great video, very respectful of the owners and also very informative. Thank you very much.
The fake fireplace was popular in the late 60's early 70's. I remember as a child my mom, aunts, cousins all wanted those at Christmas to decorate. This took me back to being a young child in the 70's. I can imagine living there and waking up in that bedroom with the white single bed. I would have loved to live there.
Nice video Kappy. The porcelain bell you showed was a strange coincidence it had my first name and the year I was married. The chemicals in the attic was probably from the teacher who lived there. The kitchen just screamed the 1970's. See you next time, as always be safe.
Loving your vids here Australia keep up the good work Kap cheers mate.🍻👍
I can never understand why the family just walks away from places like this and leaves everything! That kitchen and bath updating had to have cost some money at one point. And all the antiques in there, those were valuable! Could they even be restored now??
Can't take anything with you when you leave this life✌
one guy abandoned his place cuz he went to prison
Alot of the time it’s hard for the City or Town to find family of the person who lived their to collect the belongings or whatever is left behind.. Hope when they do redo the property and put in new development that a Antique Collector takes all the old stuff out and saves it from being destroyed
Unfortunately not a lot of families are close knitted in the US like in other cultures where lots of family lives together or the grandparents move in when they get old etc. So often families split up across the country and lose touch, there’s no relatives to claim the stuff, or sadly they don’t care along with other reasons like the other commenters mentioned. Ideally when elders get old they should yard sale their stuff and move in with their children or assisted living but that isn’t the case much these days anymore. So when they pass often things are just abandoned.
It is sad. Looking at all that beautiful furniture...It's not made that way today. I have some of my grandmother's old pieces and I love them, wouldn't trade this bedroom set for anything new!
Another great video,I thought for sure that clothesline in the bedroom was an antenna. Then I had to take a second look/Great footage of the ol place. Stay safe in all you do
GREAT VEIDO 👍 ❤ AND GREAT FINDING KAPPY YOU ARE AWESOME FINDING THESE HOUSES 👍❤
Really great video, thanks for sharing.
Great job on the filming. Good details and you just float across the room. Very comfortable to watch.
Excellent explore! To bad all that "stuff" is going to waste! Thanks for sharing!
Another awesome location Kappy! Thanks for the extensive tour! :-)
8:43 Box on metal shelf "Diet pepsi free" old school for sure. I LOVED this video and this old house. Thanks for making it and posting it.
And 13:05 I believe its a childrens (teen) chemical/science set. I just bought one from a thrift store recently (1950s) and was shocked that kids would be given all the chemicals to play with back then BUT kids were generally in a different mind set back in the day.
I'd love to own some of that old furniture.... Beautiful treasures left to Rot... Nice find
I was born in the early '60s, this house seems right out of 1976 to me. It's a sad one to me. It seems someone died in the '00s, and there was nowhere to bring and store their belongings. Then, the whole thing got left behind. Sad.
The green ovens I think are older than 1976. I was born in the 60's as well and my parents had ovens like that in 1970
I was born in 1959 and being single with no kids I’m sure my belongings will go to the scrap yard. I’ve already sent my nieces and nephews most items that have sentimental value but the rest will sit and rot like this. Cycle of life I guess. I’m clear across the country from my family so nothing is valuable enough to come and get anything.
@@gailrajala9028 dont be sad just enjoy what ever you have wish you joy peace and happiness 💕💞
Love your videos thank you so much preciate it.😊
I always wonder , what happen to the families that left everything behind? And I come back to some tragedy must of happen. This was a really great find ! And I saw tons of collectibles in the house, like the toys, sewing machines and furniture tons valuables left behind. I guess because it seems so secluded people are not curious to go inside .
Thanks for sharing this great find!!
And it looks like they--or someone left in a big hurray, doesn't it!
I generally assume it is an older couples’ home that the kids didn’t want to work on cleaning out.
You would love to steal all them goods I know you would lol smh.
Wowee! An old ringer washer tub!!!! Baba, Grandma & mom all had one.
The kitchen is 60s, we had the same type gas oven, cook top in cabinets. I think it was the same color green.
We also had wood paneling.
Gotta love the avocado green 🤪
Barefoot hippie girls too.
Same Tappan oven we had in our house growing up (wall oven).
We had a chester drawer cabinet like that in the bedroom with the TV on top in my childhood home when I was growing up!... Real nice house Kappy... Hope someone would rescue and restore soon... 🙂
Was that an old pottery kiln, behind the wringer washer? In the 1950-60's you could get chemistry kits, they had all the good stuff in them, that have been determined too be to dangerous, by today's standards. What a peaceful place, thanks for sharing!
Wonderful video, thank's so much, we can travel in time ... Kiss from France :))
This is nuts! So full of stuff!
What a beautiful old home. The land was gorgeous too. I can just imagine it back in the day bustling with life! The first sewing machine was likely from the 50s. Second obviously older. Probably a seamstress lived there. Very cool!
Another great old house youngster! Keep up the good work!
Great old house full of goodies. I had a Gilbert science kit like the one in the attic when I was a kid with a microscope, slides, test tubes and all the assorted chemicals. It was all pretty harmless, but it looked impressive. There were several great pieces of furniture in there too, like that beautiful highboy dresser with the TV on top of it, and the mid-century headboard and dresser in the lower bedroom with the vines coming in the window. I hope somebody saves the house, and the treasures inside it.
I know this video is 3 years old, but the view at [15:03] is incredible!
I would think that family members would want to claim some of the stuff. The China looks like it’s in great shape!
love all the wallpaper beautiful
Shame that the furniture is left to rot. Some of those pieces were nice. Thanks for the tour!
You can tell this was a very nice house at one time. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for the history update. These homes are such a mystery! 🕶️📝🔎🗝️🚬
Wow! This house you've explored was an amazing time capsule of a home. Great video! I subscribed! 👏
Awesome video, Awesome find. Thank You for sharing. Be safe, Be happy. God Bless
Shame all the nice furniture is left behind,some really nice antiques I'd love to have.Great find Kappy
Take them! their yours! "Happy Birthday"!
This one reminds me of the "Grandma's house" explore that you did~ dang, that's a ton of stuff!!
I lived on Long Island in the 1960s. I used to explore the abandoned sharecropper houses that were on the farms. They were much smaller but like these big homes, everything was just left inside; dishes, tables, furniture, clothing, everything. The places looked like the people just dropped everything they were doing and left. What would happen is the big dairy farmers would pass away and the kids didn’t want to work for a living so they sold the farms for lots of money to developers, which included the house, barns, silos, acres of land, etc….and the place would sit empty until the developers would come in and level everything and build housing developments. The Town did save the old Davis Farm meeting house that the colonists used back in the day before the American revolution. It still have horseshoe marks on the wood floors from the horses that they brought inside when it was raining. And the natural kettle pond in the back of the property was turned into a sump for the sewer system. People back then, in the 50s and 60s, we’re not interested in preserving the environment. They just wanted to make money.
Enjoyed video! Thanks 😁
The wood finish on the top of the wall and the ceilings is called "crown molding"
