What a Beautiful home!! I am So Glad it is Not Trashed!! The Woodwork and Fireplaces are Fantastic, as well as the Stone and Brickwork,and arches!! I wonder why it is just sitting empty?!? Are there No Family to take it over? Is it in some kind of legal proceedings? It looks like it is in good condition, no black mold, caving ceilings, etc. It would be So Cool to go in and redecorate the house!! Thanks for showing it to us! Grandma B 🐝 💕
I know who owned this house and he actually owned coal mines in BC as well, I worked in the office from 1983 to 1991. He died in late 80's and his daughter took over running the company which in my opinion was the reason it started to fall apart. The coal mine closed around 1994 and his uranium mines started closing in the 90's as well. He was a very smart man and knew how to keep his vision alive. He also build a mansion where his uranium mines were and it is still there. It was sold a few years ago. If I'm not mistaken, he started his empire selling penny stocks. I didn't realize he had this place but then again I don't know that much about him, only what I just stated.
Also, I doubt that there is uranium there, uranium is highly regulated and if there was uranium there it would have been cleaned up, it wouldn't be allowed to be left unattended. Uranium is a highly dangerous element.
Uranium ore is actually not dangerous at all in fact 10 bananas have the same amount of radiation as a handful of ore. Uranium becomes dangerous once you put it through the fission process which is splitting the atoms. On its own it’s harmless. Just like how wood is harmless to touch until you light it on fire it’s the exact same idea.
@@JTwelder. WOW cool thanks for that bit of info bcz I read an article about a Natural Uranium cave in Africa the year they gave for the cave is like a Billion Year's give or take maybe more I read it year's back 😂 I'm sure this place is old the age just sounds unreal to me is all, every time I hear Uranium mentioned I think of the Uranium Girl's what a tragedy oh my goodness, what gets me is the people who hired them in absolutely knew how was dangerous it was. The girls were hired in to paint watch dials faces bcz they glowed and was done for the war effort for the soldiers, well they were told to lick the paint brush to give it a tip, they did as told I mean they didn't know any better besides It was their job no biggie RIGHT? Then they started doing their nails, than their lips, their eyes it was FUN they glowed and it was so very AWESOME to them so wonderful they thought 😲 YEAH RIGHT - THEY WERE HOT and slowly dying.8 Only one girl made it to her old age. They said their corpse's glowed. O my GAWED so terrible you know they had boy friends too so it was a part of they're makeup, you know they would paint themselves up for them the men loved it too and positive they too were on their way to be fit for a box to be put 6 ft under. So very sad to me, O my goodness I am so SORRY I do apologize this comment was way longer than intended. Thank You GOD BLESS.
The shoe forms you found in the closet were used to help stretch new shoes to fit a bit better as well as to prevent leather shoes from shrinking if they got wet or damp either from usage or dampness when being stored. I have some leather work boots which were stored in the basement during the winter which have become stiff due to dampness entering them and they dried out during the warmer months.
+Drofhappiness: Glad to see someone who still can identify a "shoe-tree" as we called 'em. I still use them to this day....have a couple pairs of shoes with the "trees" in them as we speak. Yes...they're fantastic for not allowing damp shoes or shoes that would get weirded out from the heat or cold from shrinking. You can STILL buy them at walmart or at shoe stores. Better yet....get on EBAY and populate SHOE TREES and get really solid, old but good ones.
My dad was a mason and did beautiful brick/stone work, so I admired the quality of workmanship I saw in that house. Just as Long who ever owns that hows maintains the roof and windows, decay should stay away.
I don't see much abandon this in these places they don't seem to be very old like as if they were built in 2002 in the Bandit in 2010 they're just too damn clean all nicely set pictures. The floor looking like it has been swept but it is Canada very good for non vandalism. but damn Canada leaving these houses ...LIKE that 8 million dollar mansion left sitting??!! NO WAY
With Old homes, when you would open the main entrance door for a guest. There was usually a room right off the entrance to Invite your guests into. Usually very formal sitting room. Used to be called the "parlor". In very large wealthy homes, there could be two of these parlors. One for the lady of the house and the other for the master/man of the house. This way, the lady could keep the guests wife entertained while the gentlemen could talk about business matters. Our old farmhouse growing up, had a parlor room. I really loved it because it had the old pocket style double sliding doors lol. The old windows throughout the house had the pulley and weights features as well. Coal furnace, grand staircase and the kitchen had two huge walk in pantries. When we first moved in, there was a double seater outhouse. With one pink seat and one blue lol. First thing my parents did, was change a bedroom by the foot of the stairs into half laundry room the other half an indoor bathroom lol. I was just 4 when we moved in. Funny things one remembers.
he doesn't need to basically ...does kinda suck..."oooh, wait what was that ooh, you passed it and well didn't check out or some other things else either"..... kind of frustration until you change to another "explorer"
Beautiful house! Love the older ones! Bold wallpaper and matching curtains, bathrooms and woodwork so cool! You don't see anything like this in new homes. Great video, thanks!
Arrgh! In the living room it wasn't a jewelry box... it was a desk. Dang, my friend. Why don't we get together and let this ol' Sasquatch join you on adventure and make a different kind of video. It seems that all videos of urban explorers are only filmed by youth. There are seniors out here that appreciate these adventures too...(plus we both live in the same province.) I could add a unique outlook on the videos that no one else on RUclips has tapped into thus far.
The intro, with proper history and good narration, shows your growing bro... You take this seriously and you will prosper. 👍👊. That is an amazing house, tho dated, it's amazingly well built and there was a lot of money invested in the woodwork, etc. Even the wallpaper work was top notch. I'm probably the only one to notice..
I agree about quality and many not able to identify it. I noticed the sinks in the bathrooms. Even today such custom sinks are expensive. The wallpaper was put up quite well as its not peeling. Some of the combinations are more in the 1970's period where using all pattern was more common. Men especially find it too busy and nauseating. The patterns were high quality with the detail in the print.
@@ThePixilator also according to Trudeau, having no qualification, dressing up in BlackFace, having sex with a minor when you are a 30 year old teacher, breaking the law by interfearing with legal proceedings and coming in 2nd means that you can still become PM. What a joke?
@@mrchrisnoll1 $2.25 million Non Disclosure Agreement paid with Canadian tax dollars makes why BlackFace was fired from his teaching job the worse kept secret in Canada. It wasn't because he wore BlaceFace over and over again!
Were you in a hurry? So many details missed ☹️ Hopefully you have links to your friends pics & videos so we can browse those too & take in the beautiful details.
What you thought was a bed warmer (in the basement @ 17:51) is actually known as a "Silent Butler" which was used to collect remains of various cigarette ash trays so they could be emptied without being carried away from the smoking areas in the house. My Grandmother had two of them, and we always thought it was a treat to do the "chore" of emptying the Ashtrays for her.
I think a lot of time what happens is these places get bought for the property by developers, the houses eventually get demolished and a new subdivision fills it all in! It is sad, I see some of these houses and they are so beautifully built, I would LOVE one of these old houses!
What's the little "door" in the wall at 6:46? Also, at 19:00, that instrument is a Geiger Counter. In fact you can see a headphone jack closed with a screw on cap with a little chain. (I have a similar one) These are civilian versions and were extensively used during the Cold War. There is also a "probe" or sensor that can be either , directly attached to the slot on top of the instrument or connected remotely using a wire. Geiger counters like these usually worked on "D" cells (The one I have is a :Victoreen" make) Most importantly: PLEASE invest in a GEIGER COUNTER. You can find modern, digital ones pretty cheap. Radioactive substances can cause serious harm. Some are safe to touch (such as an unused incandescent gas "mantle"(Thorium) but other substances are dangerous when inhale them, touch them, or swallow them. I love your videos but please treat every basement as a potential radioactive area. A Geiger counter is a cheap safeguard!
Oh yeah, that little thing you called a Bed Warmer is actually a Crumb Catcher. They came with a little brush to sweep off the tablecloths after a meal. People didn't have hand vacs back then, but I think the old things were even better sometimes. It does look exactly like a bed warmer, but much, much smaller. Being 63 years old, I get a lot of chuckles from you young guys being unsure of some of the things that were everday items when I was a kid. Progress has gone too fast. I very much appreciate your interest in and respect for older architecture and domestic life. History is SO important, so never stop learning and exploring. Thank you guys! NY Nana
I think I know the kind of brush you talking about, as I seen those used between courses in fancy Italian restaurants to sweep the bread crumbs onto a plate
The house is amazing and should be adopted and perhaps they divided into two homes? The small pan that you were holding with a lid is called a butt Butler. When people smoked in the home you would go around emptying the ash trays into that, that way you don’t start a fire with hot ashes. I have a few surprised there was one there. Please be careful around that stuff it’s very dangerous and it doesn’t matter how old it is. The furniture in the first grand room were a small desk, and a buffet both antiques which should be rescued ASAP!
I absolutely LOVE this explore! Such a beautiful house. I wish I could live there.... minus the radiation stuff. Also, would like to say, thank you for doing your research, and giving us a backstory. It's so refreshing to hear young folks using full sentences to express themselves. Keep up the great work! Subscribing now~
Loved both the newer and much more the older part. Beautiful wood. Love the porcelaine sinks. So ornate. The antique furniture is gorgeous. When you said, Uranium mine, first thing to mind was Elliot Lake (my dad worked in the uranium mine there) and Batchawana is out by Sault-Ste-Marie, Ontario. I totally understand why you wouldn't say where this is. That place would be so empty after that!
The instrument in the metal can is the other half of the Gama spectrometer. The wire coming out of the sensor connects to the meter base where the protective cap with ball chain is. If you look in the video there is another round piece of foam that the meter fits into and both parts are stored safely in the canister.
Probably lost everything when they started being required to clean up their messes from the uranium mines…. What an amazing property, crazy its sitting abandoned like this. Its still a strong house. Thank you for the tour Noah!
Maybe at the time when the mining was big in that area near the home, that the miners might’ve bunked/stayed in some of the other rooms in that house. I’d be interested to learn more about this house!
Dude your videos are awesome, love it, i also live in Ontario, I used to explore more when i was younger and kinda stopped because of life stuff, but now i feel inspired again to start wandering around and just exploring my city, so thank you for the content. Cheers :)
I asked my son what that thing in the barrel is and he said it was a containment pack for contaminants. Not sure if it was used or brand new. I wouldn't touch it
19:00 that is a Geiger counter (aka gamma scintillatior) that measures beta and gamma radiation. The units measure the spontaneous radioactive decay hits per second. At that calibration level, it was used to measure some very "hot" substances. The sensor is in the foam-lined can and it attaches to the base unit on the table. It is an older unit because most of the units we use today (professionally) are hand-held "pancake" units by Ludlum Instruments set to measure radioactivity in counts per minute. Anyway, a cool find indeed!
Again, your newer videos are just awesome. You go slowly from room to room, in a slower, orderly manner. Also, this is the only channel, that will watch the ads to help out. :)
At 6:08 You're friends are correct it's "for cutting meat" and some might refer to it as an "Electric Knife" which is very 1970's. . Nice vid and thanks for sharing!
YA'LL CRACK ME UP. YOU'RE SOOOOOO YOUNG! I STILL HAVE MY ELECTRIC KNIFE FROM THE 70'S AND IT STILL WORKS! THEY USED TO MAKE THINGS TO LAST. NO MORE! BUT SERIOUSLY I HAVE TO LAUGH WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THINGS ARE THAT ARE SO COMMON PLACE. ENJOY YOUR YOUTH. IT SURE DOESN'T LAST LONG.
I would love to see this young man's reaction if he ever saw an antique grinder. You would attach it to the table, It had a spiral part inside. I have one that was my grandmothers. I still use it to grind my chicken and ham for chicken or ham salad. You see them often in antique stores..
I was going to say that you move too fast and miss so much but I see that you have been given that message but I still must say "Slow down and look into every thing". By the way I am not surprised that you missed the up stairs last time you were there.
I had been mighty impressed to see how well intact the the house had been, at least up until the 10:10 mark. Seeing that can of Monster Energy Gronk serves as indication that the house had been abandoned only fairly recently. Gronk edition had been around only like 4 or 5 years ago and has since been discontinued.
Pssst! The "tiny kitchenette" is what's called a butler's pantry. It would have been used by butlers (in the past) or caterers (more recently) to prep food and bev outside the main kitchen (in case the kitchen was full and they needed extra space or to keep the prep out of sight).
That old TV at 13:30 would be perfect to make into an aquarium. I have built a couple TV aquariums but this one would be great because there is enough space around the viewing area for filtration and lighting.
The Gamma ray and the thing in the metal bucket go together to form a unit. I'm sure you've already done the research and found out. Thanks for showing us all these neat places.
I am pleased, yet confused, how were the immature and juvenile so often seen their destruction in these places, gratefully here not present. Job well presented guys.!
The house is amazing love the architect and the depth of the windows..... It would be awesome cleaned up with some updates but I would leave quite a bit of the original uniqueness to it. It's hard to believe such a beautiful house like this that at the time it was built it was probably pretty expensive is just sitting to rot yet there's so many people in America who are homeless... Decide to see houses like this just sitting vacant
Glad you had some back story. Little jerky with the camera. I liked the older part the most as the most history was there. The basement was full of documents and items related to prospecting. Sad to see documents and photos in an abandoned property with no expected useful future. Probably a loss.
Nice one Noah. I love it. Some of the wallpaper I didnt like. Upstairs hall. Is the house still there. Oct. 2020. I hope that it has been saved. No vandals either. Always good. Thank you for the tour and take care..
What a beautiful home(minus all the awful wallpaper!) Its so wonderful the majority of abandoned Canadian homes aren’t tagged, tossed etc. I would love to know why this home wasn’t bought. I missed it if you said the reason. Great job Noah
Hey if you guys never got an answer the barrel you touched at the end was most likely a neutron detectors The parrafin wax in it slows neutrons (think of two pool balls hitting each other since wax is mostly hydrogen which is essentially a neutron itself) and material within the detector becomes activated (or directly ionizes with the neutron depending on type) and emits beta radiation where it creates a response I worked in the nuclear industry for five years and I know the video is 8 months old but watch your exposure to radiation and radioactive contamination
Wow beautiful home!!! I love antique furniture this place is amazing!! And that sink in the bathroom is crazy and that stair case😳🤯 Id live there just to be around all the nice things I’d tell the ghost to go ahead and haunt me I like your house lol
Just discovered the channel and im enjoying it. Keep it up! Plus that kitchen was the shit in the 70s, still was in many places in the very early 80s too.

Incredible condition for being so old! Someone needs to buy it and live it it!! Too nice to just sit there unused!!! Great find!!
See the house looks like it was frozen in time it's amazing it's in really good shape
Very awesome home. Very cool. Enjoy your video thank you. From New Zealand.
Glad you enjoyed!
Such a pretty house still...I wonder why it's been left like that...
I hope they dont tear it down...its could still be useable...why has no one bought it ????
I loved this house thank you for the walk through
The big "Jewelry box" as you call it is actually a Roll Top Desk. Lol How old are you kid's anyway?

Really beautiful home
Nothing like the log home that was trashed
What a wonderful house! The upper part has very cute wallpapers. I loved it 👍🤩
What a beautiful house, if I had the money I would buy it and repair it and make it so I could live in it.
Maybe at the time when the mining was big in that area near the home, that the miners might’ve bunked/stayed in some of the other rooms in that house.
I’d be interested to learn more about this house!
That house is not where his mines were, the mines were in Northern Ontario and he also owned a coal mine in BC.
Do people ever comment what city these houses are in? I'd love to know how close to home your videos are. love it!!

Wow uranium find, Geiger, mining maps, huge mansion, gorgeous wood, love the floral porcelain sinks, wow
Would be nice if you guys had info about why they left?
Beautiful home, but can you imagine how long it took to do all that tacky wallpaper?!
I would love to buy this home!! Absolutely gorgeous and in great shape ❤️
19:00 that is a Geiger counter (aka gamma scintillatior) that measures beta and gamma radiation. The units measure the spontaneous radioactive decay hits per second. At that calibration level, it was used to measure some very "hot" substances. The sensor is in the foam-lined can and it attaches to the base unit on the table. It is an older unit because most of the units we use today (professionally) are hand-held "pancake" units by Ludlum Instruments set to measure radioactivity in counts per minute. Anyway, a cool find indeed!
Don't know if I would rely on the guy who couldn't figure out how to open a microwave to identify uranium.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Enjoy the miner's house. Really cool
Again, your newer videos are just awesome. You go slowly from room to room, in a slower, orderly manner. Also, this is the only channel, that will watch the ads to help out. :)
At 6:08 You're friends are correct it's "for cutting meat" and some might refer to it as an "Electric Knife" which is very 1970's. .
Nice vid and thanks for sharing!
YA'LL CRACK ME UP. YOU'RE SOOOOOO YOUNG! I STILL HAVE MY ELECTRIC KNIFE FROM THE 70'S AND IT STILL WORKS! THEY USED TO MAKE THINGS TO LAST. NO MORE! BUT SERIOUSLY I HAVE TO LAUGH WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THINGS ARE THAT ARE SO COMMON PLACE. ENJOY YOUR YOUTH. IT SURE DOESN'T LAST LONG.
I would love to see this young man's reaction if he ever saw an antique grinder. You would attach it to the table, It had a spiral part inside. I have one that was my grandmothers. I still use it to grind my chicken and ham for chicken or ham salad. You see them often in antique stores..
@@maryannschweikert4495 I have one!
HaHa! Tracy, I know what you mean. They crack me up.
I still use a Corning Ware percolator for my coffee. Along with my antique cast iron cookware..
We still have ours, as well and yes, they’ll walk into a room and say “this is a really old room” ?????? Lol
Its beautiful...love it
Nice place. Maybe run through the next house.
This is one of your best finds, wish you could have checked out the basement a little more. My husband and I are prospectors and am deep into history.
I loved seeing this house but I would love it even more if you would slow down. Show us what's behind doors, in the drawers and the paintings.
It is very sad that these properties are not protected from trespassers without permission
Oh my! This Staircase is so beautiful! Greetings from Germany! I hope you all stay well!
Those old KitchenAid dishwashers will outperform modern ones!
I was going to say that you move too fast and miss so much but I see that you have been given that message but I still must say "Slow down and look into every thing". By the way I am not surprised that you missed the up stairs last time you were there.
I like your videos, but would be much better if you'd slow down and let us see more. You move too fast and jerky.
I agree. The camera doesn't have time to focus. It's just a blur.
It may be weird but I'd actually like to get more shots of the flooring too.
Because thats so hard for taking slow shots like that and it takes time like so long too! But we do appreciate what he did for us right?
I had been mighty impressed to see how well intact the the house had been, at least up until the 10:10 mark. Seeing that can of Monster Energy Gronk serves as indication that the house had been abandoned only fairly recently. Gronk edition had been around only like 4 or 5 years ago and has since been discontinued.
The stuff in the basement was fascinating.
Another beautiful home!!! Some of these places I would love to check out and see who has them. I'm looking for a place to buy
So retro and yet so cool!
Pssst! The "tiny kitchenette" is what's called a butler's pantry. It would have been used by butlers (in the past) or caterers (more recently) to prep food and bev outside the main kitchen (in case the kitchen was full and they needed extra space or to keep the prep out of sight).
Anyone notice how the part from 1855 is 100 times better than the newer one?
I love your comment on all that is going on in the house.
That old TV at 13:30 would be perfect to make into an aquarium. I have built a couple TV aquariums but this one would be great because there is enough space around the viewing area for filtration and lighting.
The Gamma ray and the thing in the metal bucket go together to form a unit. I'm sure you've already done the research and found out. Thanks for showing us all these neat places.
I am pleased, yet confused, how were the immature and juvenile so often seen their destruction in these places, gratefully here not present. Job well presented guys.!
Sad to say that some idiots will come in and rip out the old classic design and try to modernize it . Sad to. It's beautiful
quarantine make me stress now im glad i found your channel i really love it..it makes me feel good and i love the blogger🙊
I wish you would tilt the camera up higher, I feel like I am just looking at the floor.
Your giant jewelry box is called secretary before everything paid on line or send messages on phone today u sat at that to write letters an pay bills
Seriously
dude i don't know how you find these places but its amazing!
The house is amazing love the architect and the depth of the windows..... It would be awesome cleaned up with some updates but I would leave quite a bit of the original uniqueness to it. It's hard to believe such a beautiful house like this that at the time it was built it was probably pretty expensive is just sitting to rot yet there's so many people in America who are homeless... Decide to see houses like this just sitting vacant
not sure how wise it was to show some of that stuff.
The item you picked up in the basement of the older part of the house is a SILENT BUTLER (not a bed warmer). Used to collect crumbs from a table.
Glad you had some back story. Little jerky with the camera. I liked the older part the most as the most history was there. The basement was full of documents and items related to prospecting. Sad to see documents and photos in an abandoned property with no expected useful future. Probably a loss.
But we spent so little time in the basement.
Loved the house so sad that its left to rot it could be totally fixed up and lived In great video!
Nice one Noah. I love it. Some of the wallpaper I didnt like. Upstairs hall. Is the house still there. Oct. 2020. I hope that it has been saved. No vandals either. Always good. Thank you for the tour and take care..
We want to see behind the 70’s remodel!
What a beautiful home(minus all the awful wallpaper!) Its so wonderful the majority of abandoned Canadian homes aren’t tagged, tossed etc. I would love to know why this home wasn’t bought. I missed it if you said the reason. Great job Noah
Beautiful house like a museum. I'm moving there :-D
Hey if you guys never got an answer the barrel you touched at the end was most likely a neutron detectors
The parrafin wax in it slows neutrons (think of two pool balls hitting each other since wax is mostly hydrogen which is essentially a neutron itself) and material within the detector becomes activated (or directly ionizes with the neutron depending on type) and emits beta radiation where it creates a response
I worked in the nuclear industry for five years and I know the video is 8 months old but watch your exposure to radiation and radioactive contamination
50 kitchen? Actually, I don't think dishwashers were available in the 50s, unless you think of wives or servants.
We had a dishwasher in the 1950s but it was a top loader.
Could be added later
beautiful i would live there and no updates repairs but keep as it is
Good old mustard yellow. A colour staple of the 70's.
Love your editing
Wow beautiful home!!! I love antique furniture this place is amazing!! And that sink in the bathroom is crazy and that stair case😳🤯 Id live there just to be around all the nice things I’d tell the ghost to go ahead and haunt me I like your house lol
Just discovered the channel and im enjoying it. Keep it up! Plus that kitchen was the shit in the 70s, still was in many places in the very early 80s too.
Wow... a lot of space nice...
BEAUTIFUL !!!
Beautiful home. Lots of wall paper.
