- First house was around the great dismal swamp, built in the mid 1800’s then had a large addition and renovation done in the early 1900’s. Bunch of antiques inside and lots of old cars sitting around being consumed by nature outside.
Second house was more middle North Carolina, closer to Raleigh. Couldn’t find much info but I’d guess it was built in the late 19th century.
Thanks for watching Развлечения
I get very sentimental seeing the old antique furniture. As a 76 year old woman, I remember these things in my parents' home and my grandparents' home. My mother was the youngest of 10 children, so most things were gone by the time I realized how wonderful "old" stuff is. Thank you for the trips back in time for me.
Confession- when I watch these, I feel physical, to my heart, pain. To see such irreplaceable beauty, rotting, makes my heart, and whole body, hurt 🤕
Thankful to Kappy to at least be able to see these gems, but I will never understand the loss of these stunning, once in a lifetime, things 💔
Same. Often wonder what led up to no one coming around anymore. Know someone with a farm land it's done had two houses on it, first burned in the 40's, second held up until family member backed a truck through the front, it actually stayed up 20 more years like that. Now there's a double trailer house out there, old house still up but can't live in it one side on ground. Family member got the land couldn't bring himself to tear it down, was originally his great great grandpa house. Then his grandpa took over 60 years driving out there 80 mile trip every week. Now he has it. This kind of thing I imagine when watching these but guess there was no one close to keep up with it.
It's a bit of a shock to the system. The waste. There are RUclipsrs who visit old mansions as well, and it is a bit unbelievable what is left behind. I always feel a bit stunned. If I were to come upon these places, I would probably try to find out who owns them, and then I would feel the need to try to buy some of the pieces....just to get them out of there, before they are lost completely.
Me too!!!..so upsetting to me!!!
@jenImbusy : i feel the same... i thought i was just weird... but you see what once was a beautiful home for a family or old couple... it seems to wrong to let these homes rot that way.
@@researchbear3960 I think that a lot of the time, there's a death or disability. Someone can't deal with the home or living alone any more. By the time the person leaves, things are usually going downhill already on the property. Then the kids or others don't want to deal with it, or they can't deal with it. Maybe there is no designated person in a will or estate plan. Taking on the accumulation of another person's lifetime can be daunting, especially if that person is still alive. Or it can become like a monument that someone doesn't want to be disturbed. That one spouse might be so traumatized or otherwise disabled in a way that they just never make it back in, even if they intend to. But they can't let go to allow others to do it. So it is put off, and put off, and everyone gets older and more detached or they die.....years pass.....until someone goes in and makes a video, so that we can scratch our heads and wonder what happened. And why this old home and its things seem so forgotten. Natural disasters might be part of it, but I would say that these sorts of situations are most often somehow connected to the psychological or the emotional. And now they make us sad.
No matter how young you are you should immediately recognize a classic Ford Mustang.
Thanks for the video! They are always a reminder to me that we’re not taking anything after we die and that’s amazingly freeing. Enjoy your life that’s all we have 😊
Good stuff, THANKS for not having annoying music in the background, that’s how you do it!!
The first house looks like older people lived there, and possibly died, or was unable to care for themselves. It's a shame the antique furniture was not rescued, some beautiful pieces soon to be ruined. The second looked like the old island homes, built many years ago. Thanks Kappy
Hello Patricia how are you doing today
Somebody really needs to save all those gorgeous antiques (furniture) before it's too late. And those old wicker porch chairs could be repurposed as well with a fresh coat of paint and some colorful cushions. Argggghhhh....drives me nuts!!
Wow Kappy. I don’t know how you find all these gems!! It was like stepping back in time. All those antiques! That painting you didn’t catch possibly a reverse painting?! With all the old furnishings, it wouldn’t surprise me. Wow no tagging, no stuff thrown everywhere,😳😳😳😳
GREAT FIND, also sad nobody is enjoying all that great stuff
Kappy, I don’t know how you are able to continually explore these beautiful expiring homes especially when so much is left behind. I guess your passion for it is a huge driving factor!!! I am grateful, as I’ve said before, for you and your talent and the time you spend doing this!!!! My heart literally hurts for some of these homes that are left to rot alone. It’s hard not to get angry but I try to remind myself we don’t the circumstance in why they are left the way they are. Please stay safe with every explore you do! Thank you for trip in to the past even though some times it’s hard. 💕💕💕
Wow the first house has beautiful mantels and the 2nd house the Mustang just rotting away..crazy.
The first house had some really neat furniture and beautiful fireplaces. You can tell it was well loved at one point. The porch was really pretty too! That car at the second house is a Ford Mustang ♥️
Yes, definitely an old Ford Mustang from the 60's. Such a shame that the antique furniture in the 1st house is just going to waste.
That last car is a Ford Mustang. Thanks for another great video, Kappy!
Love the columns in the house!
The first house had lots of antique furniture. I love the old curved glass hutch and the treadle sewing machine. The one car you asked about looks like a Pontiac Grand Prix or LTD I could be wrong on that one. The 2nd house full of possibilities. That car out back would be a Ford Mustang early 70's. Both worth saving though. Thanks for sharing and you have a great day
That is one of the first Mustangs. 1964 or 65.
That's right, mid sixties mustang
My sister has an "old curved glass hutch" which was my great aunt's. It is sad to see such a beautiful antique being abandoned.
Love the mustang. There's history. Love the houses. Thank you for sharing.
I love that first house! Reminded me of my grandma's house with all the bedrooms with doors to other bedrooms. They don't make them like that anymore. So sad to see it going to waste.
Shotgun houses ?
@@Lo2smoove Shotgun houses are little small houses with a small living room up front one or two bedrooms behind that and a kitchen to the rear. Years ago they all had out houses behind them. They were called shotgun houses because you could potentially shoot right through them without hitting anything. My Grandparents lived in one of those but the kids built an addition onto the back and put in a bathroom and septic system.
That first house I really liked also those Pillars separating the 2 rooms cool, the red car outside was a Dodge Sedan full sized car around mid 1970's the other car at the other house was a Mustang around 1966-1967.
I'll bet there are folks who would like to get ahold of those...if only for parts.
@@dodieodie498 .... They are not that much in demand depends if a person would be restoring that make car....
Thanks, Terry. I thought that looked like a 'Stang, but without any structure between the headlights, I couldn't see the shape of the grill. Looked small, though, so I immediately thought it might be one of the early coupes. (They kept growing and growing...)
@@oldenweery7510 That was definitely an early 'Stang.
@@nadinemasteller1089 I remember the feeling that swept the young driving public in those days. One of my buddies in our sports car club had a red "Notch-back" that he outfitted and drove like a true sports car. (He and his dad ran a Firestone dealership, along with an oil distributorship, so it really cornered nice with those Firestone Wide Ovals and a front anti-sway bar he added.) Even the base price 6-cylinder convertible was sporty.
It's a shame that people would rather let it just sit and rot. Has to give it away or sell it. Someone else can use it.
Loved the old furniture in first house!
FORD MUSTANG!! YEAH BABY!!! the car on blocks! Boy somebody gutted that thing!!
The 2 liter sodas in the first house must not have been there that long as they still had their coloring.
Two awesome old houses! Thank s Kappy👍🙋🧚🕊️🦋👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thank you for watching!
I love the big sink cabinet. Fireplace is gorgeous. The columns and the old bike are very cool. Pretty furniture sitting around. To bad someone did not take them and someone else use them. Great tour, thank you for sharing. lean on God
What i would give to see that first house and the people who lived in it when It was in its prime. My imagination runs wild. What a wonderful old house and another not to be missed video.
I like how you always find something good about a house. Thanks for showing us the past!
Enjoy watching this 1800 houses ty for sharing you do an amazing job.
Wow! Too very cool old houses! Lots of treasures left in the first one! Old furniture is awesome. Thanks for two more great evplores Kappy! ✌
That bike was awesome. Loved all the dressers in the bedrooms and that sewing machine in that one bedroom. Sad that those cars are just rusting away along with the house. Excellent find and thanks for sharing. 👍😊
The Good Housekeeping magazine under the 1999 one had a date of 2006. I think it's really cool how you find the beauty in all of the abandoned homes that you go into. Thanks for sharing. Oh and I always hit the like button before I watch because I know I won't be disappointed.
That mustang behind the 2nd house was awesome. That's one I'd love to fix up and drive. I think it's a 66. Definitely a keeper.
1st explore: Charming home at one time with lovely antiques.
Hello Marilyn how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
The car at the 2nd house is a 65-68 model Ford Mustang and the one at the 1st house I believe is a 70's model Ford LTD. Both are very collectible classics.
In this film I love the nature around and the trees which remembered the owners and the life so many years ago...also the birds chirping....peacefully ....oh ...Thanks Kappy! Cheers from Canada/Ontario/Toronto!
Looks like the ceilings were lowered at some point in the first house.
It’s a shame all that old furniture is being allowed to rot away.
Maybe the family has died out?
Great video Kappy! Thanks for sharing!
It did have surprisingly low ceilings for an old house.
@@sjbock ... low ceilings are fairly common out in farm country. I would guess 6 ft 8 in is about right in those days. Also consider the average person shorter 150 years ago.
I know it would be wrong to take anything out of these old homes. I always see the great potential in restoring the furniture to it's new glory. To bad someone can't lay claim to them and give some TLC.
So sad to see all that beautiful antique furniture being left behind. Thanks Kappy! Loved the curio cabinet with the curved glass. 😘
Hello Bonnie how are you doing today
I hope we’ll get to see the inside of the house at the end of the video, with the red shutters!! Great video as always, Kappy!
Brown car, '63 Chrysler possibly a Newport Red one, '77, '78 Dodge Polara. The Mustang could be a '65 or '66. Maybe even a '64.5. Another good catch Kap.
The red one is either a Dodge Monaco or Plymouth Fury 75-78. Didn't see the grille so it's a little hard to tell what year.
@@JrGoonior it looks like 70 home not 135 years
@@AL-jb1mh Yes
BEAUTIFUL LOVE THE OLD HOUSE AND NORTH CAROLINA ❤
Great porch with lovely old rattan chairs in the porch. Thankyou for showing us before the place collapsed. It is an attractive house. The second house has a good design to it too. I liked the roof it made it different. Thankyou for showing us.
Another great video. I love watching your tours. I admire your respect for the properties and your obvious enjoyment when you find a great old newel post or some original hardware. Oh, and how you always test out those old piano keys! I have so many questions. Do you drive around aimlessly looking for old houses or do you get tips? Do you enter on your own or get permission from someone first? Do you first do a recon before starting to film? Do you always take someone with you (the backup person) in case of trouble? Have you ever stumbled upon nefarious persons inside of these houses? What is your take on the houses that are crammed to the brim with "stuff"? People just up and move away or die? Stuff left but messed up by intruders? It's all so interesting. Would love it if you did a video explaining some of this and maybe telling about misadventures (such as have you ever fallen through a floor or old stairway). Anyway, so enjoy your work. Thanks!
Hello Sally how are you doing today
I would loved to have had a closer look at the old log structure behind the second house. Amazing it looks in such good condition for it's age. Possibly the original homestead on the property.
I am thinking the same. I think the log structure behind the second house is older than the house in front. Would have loved to see a peek inside those log walls.
Absolutely love your videos Kappy your the best ever
Fantastic Kappy
Loved that first house. Great explore
That bed with the pine cone post is exactly what I had as a child. So many salvageable items in this house.
As always a great find,love that first house,so roomy! I've never seen columns before in a house, but loving the porch! Ur favorite kappy fellow porch lover,the cars are the boat size from late sixties, early seventies,that today would be a miricale to park somewhere, esp in NYC!!
Absolutely love the porch on first house!! Dig all the rooms!! Rooms back then were much bigger than they are today.
Love the decay and love to see things left behind,,thx kappy
My uncle says it's either a 65 or 66 Ford Mustang in the second video. Love the video!
I thought it might be 67 looks like one my dad had back in the day. there were 9 of us and he'd fit us all in that car.
Kappy,this is such a nice video.i loved seeing all the stuff left behind.you know vintage time capsule houses are my favorite.Seeing the magazines made me very happy It was great to see that
Cool house. You should bring some Febreeze with you when houses smell like that. I suggest Bora Bora waters, it will make the room smell pleasent longer. We keep one in the bathroom and my wife makes me use it every time I sit in the toilet
🤢🤣
I must commend you, you dont touch everything, turn things over, etc. Its so unwise & your respect, appreciation & consideration shows that youre a good man with a loving-kind heart.
I will continue to watch your Vids!
💝✨🙏✨💝
Please gear up with masks & gloves.
Beautiful old house alot of old furniture and antiques. No bathroom. 2 cars.
Love the first house it’s so dope. That old school tv was so cool but the fireplace was everything 💚💚💚
Lovely old homes💕
Wow a house frozen in time. Beautiful 💕
Be safe out there man, keep em coming, no annoying music, gracias!!
Awesome houses! The first house had a weird layout upstairs….not much privacy in those days I guess 😂…. But the furniture was gorgeous! The second house was sad….you can see someone tried to save it…. Thanks Kappy! Looking forward to the next few videos!!
Thanks for the upload Kappy!
Wow unbelievable homes. Good explore! 😊
That first house was a wonderful home at sometime. Would love to see pics from before it was abandoned - and all that restorable furniture!!! Heartbreaking but we are lucky you gave us tours before it’s gone- thank you, Kappy!!! Be safe. I used to go through vacant houses for a living. Fun but dangerous!
Hello Jennifer how are you doing today
I love all the beautiful antique
furniture
Amazing place, sooo much cool stuff in there!
Hi the 1st house was great to see enjoyed looking around it. The second one was good too. What I enjoyed the most about this one was the cars 🚗 the second one was cool but the last Ford Mustang I guess was really exciting. 😊
I enjoyed the video, Thanks Kappy !
Great houses! I love the cars also!
I really enjoy your exploring videos! Thank you! Great video!
First home had 3 bottles of RC Cola on the fridge WOW !! I love that fireplace !! That divider with the columns is so pretty !! Wow a second pretty fireplace !! Sad to see this wonderful old home in this state makes my heart hurt . Wonder who lived here last ....a older man and woman possibly ...some cool old cars as well . That second home was a strange little place inside cool old Mustang . And a nice front porch also great video as always Kappy thank you for taking me along with you always something cool to see !!
Mustang at the house rotting away
Great video thanks man. Have a great day.
Another most excellent video Kappy!
kappy this was an awesome find alot of old gooods in here should of beeen saved great video thanks for the upload keeep on keepin on
Love these old homes it just hurts my heart that they're wasting away
I find your videos so relaxing. Thanks for posting.
U too kind thank you!
Kind of sad. A forgotten time.Thank you.❤️
Lot of valuable antiques in this house
Good going Kappy
Sure wish someone would have rescued house #1 before it fell into such disrepair. So much beautiful antique furniture just rotting away....... Such a shame! Thanks for an excellent video!
Beautiful antique furniture.
To think that all these places were someone's pride and joy many years ago
Mustang 65 or 66. That first house was a true time capsule! Thanks
I can't believe so much beautiful furniture is still there. Sports car? Hardly....that is a BOAT!!!!
👍 You find some great places.
It is sad to see what had been a beautiful home now just rotting away. Some of that furniture is similar to what my Grandmother had. My mother had a china closet like the one in the kitchen. She was lucky to get it I think when a relative was downsizing. My sister was the one to get it after my mother passed. I had no room for it.
A ton of awesome furniture worth saving in this one
I don't think you've ever met a fireplace you didn't like. 😉 Another great find!
Such a waste of so much. Very sad. Thank you Kappy for another great video.
First one, victim of a reverse mortgage, lol. Even the state wanted nothing to do with it ! Second one, needs a lot of prayers. Ty for the tour.
Like the houses I saw today. Great.
I bet this house was very beautiful back in it’s day. Sad that it’s falling apart by the day. All that antique furniture could be worth a lot.
The first house had some incredible furniture. What a shame it can’t be rescued
Would be a nice place to live in. There's alot of cleaning and throwing away to do. The furniture is awesome. Is priceless.
Thanks for sharing..love it
I enjoy every video so much...I just wish they were longer...
The red car is a 1975 plymouth fury.
Cool old bike, sewing machine, and cedar wardrobe at first house. Car at 2nd house is a 1965 or 1966 Ford Mustang. Maybe the room upstairs at 2nd house was attic with pull down stairs.
Congrats on the 100 thousand! Yay!
oh wow man!! this was a good find!!! thanks for sharing. We will be up there in Wilmington NC for UrbexCon 2022 in a couple months
I love that curio cabinet in the kitchen. Those sinks are great. They're deep and the water drains right off the drainboard back into the sink. I once had one and loved it. Then we moved. There was a 2006 magazine under the 1999 one. Why is so much beautiful old furniture abandoned? I will never understand that. There's some great woodwork that's worth saving. The sink in the second house looked even nicer than the first one.
So much beautiful old furniture and glassware, so sad to see these things sit and rot.
Kap, love your videos. No nonsense, just tour and look for the good stuff. Yeah, the 2nd house car is def a Ford Mustang.
