My 5 year old son was quietly walking around house with flashlight, I asked him what he was doing. He said ‘shhh I’m big bankz and I’m exploring this abandoned house!’ 😂keep up the GREAT videos! We LOVE them!!!
Let this be a reminder that material things are temporary, but once we pass away we will all be judged on the state of our hearts and what we did in this world. Treat others with kindness.
I always want to just cry when I see such vintage and antique furniture just left to rot. I'll never understand why people leave so many beautiful things behind.
Well I have left my bed and other things behind. Not because I wanted to tho. It was because I moved in an old house and didn’t know there was toxic mold growing under the house. Months later I find out but it was white the mold so hard to see on things that are light in colour… I left a lot of my things there and left with what was safe. The bed was touching the wall and maybe had mold on it. I didn’t want to risk my health (I found out about the mold in the first place because I got to sick living there and almost died from the mold)
I live in Norfolk, VA where every year they have The Azalea Festival. I have three azaleas that have been here since I bought the place 14 years ago. They must live a long time.
What struck me was in the living room, the chair in the corner had an open book over the arm of the chair. Like the person stopped reading and left. Wonder what the title of the book was. Good job. Beautiful home.
I absolutely love this house. The first bedroom you go through with the 2 beds is my favorite. It's so bright and feels like a very comfortable room to be in. The paint color helps add to that as well. I wish I had the money to fix it up
The piece of furniture there @5:03 is called a 'wardrobe'. Some call it a chiffonier. It is a closet before the time of closets. Taxes on houses many years ago counted closets as rooms, and the # of rooms increased the amount of tax. So they didn't do closets. They didn't really need them like we do these days, with so much stuff. They had few belongings, and a wardrobe was often enough for the clothes they wanted to store hanging up. A 'chiffonier' is also a piece of furniture you may see in the dining room, some call it a side board. In that case, it looks like a higher dresser, possibly with shelves on top to display decorative plates or other dining room items. and the lower part stores dining room linens, napkins, table cloths, the like, possibly silverware, serving dishes, and table settings. Just for your FYI. Old people, huh!
This very historic sn kinda sad to see this house in disrepair adventure Big bankz ,thank you. For taking all us along an congratulations on your engagement
Sometimes I feel when a house has been handed down through the generations, I believe that people leave some things behind for the next generation to be able to enjoy. But it just so happens that circumstances hit peoples lives and things end up abandoned for some reason or another. None the less, I can't believe that some people honestly don't take some of this old furniture and try and refurbish it instead of letting it sit and rot. It's so sad because furniture today is not as well made and doesn't have the character that it did in times past. Thank you Big Bankz for all you do, and congratulations on your engagement.
I agree; the house and furniture are beautiful! Sad that it's been forgotten and beginning to cave in. I'm always interested in the kitchens. Thank you for an amazing tour! 😊
Amazing house, But it's sad to see a house left behind and it breaks my heart, but I'm sure those lovely people never thought that their lovely house would be left behind.
@candice446 How u know tho? U assuming they owned slaves. Many had plantations and did not own slaves. Dont let that narrative the left push all day keep you on the mental plantation. They bring it up every election cycle yet never pass any policy to help black folks. Only make the portion of our community in poverty, stay in poverty. Also dont forget why the republican party was formed, to end slavery.
I’m amazed how do you find these houses?? So many are out in nowhere land. You do such a great job describing what you see. It’s so hard to believe everything was left like that. Thanks!
@@patriciaphelps5875 so much time and hard work went into them. My grandma used to talk about how the ladies would get together and work on them. So much history in each one.
It's a beautiful house and to see all the old furniture still intact is wonderful, just so sad it wasn't kept up. thank you for sharing I enjoyed the video.
Hi Big Bankz, I love your videos and look forward to them every week. Watching your videos has become a part of my Saturday night routine. Thanks for making them. Keep up the good work!
I paused the video and did my best to read the cursive in the binder (2nd page): "Teach music for use in life. Has music any effect on moral character. This becomes a moral force by what we do with it. Like any other moral influences a force for good. One can do more important things with superior music than inferior. There is a need that people learn to enjoy better music and have a wealth of it." You were doing well with the part you read. Interesting thoughts - written by a music teacher? That upstairs bedroom was very sweet & light.
All old buildings have a good and sad history. The house and furniture are amazing; it's a pity no one wants to fix it up. In the culture today a person would be called all kinds of names for just wanting to do anything good to the place. The handwriting is a picture in itself. We have lost so much over the years.
Wow that furniture is gorgeous! I can't believe it was just left there! I would love to buy the quilt & one of those beds ❤ Also, those old dishes & cookware man I love that kinda stuff! Back when things were made to last.
Hey, Great video, It's such a beautiful place, So sad no one wanted the property, Just beautiful. Thanks for sharing, Can't wait for the next adventure. Take care, be safe, be well GOD BLESS YOU❤❤
You can tell that there was a lot of family living there at one time. The one bedroom must have been an elderly man's bedroom. There were at least six chairs in that room that were set up like they were visiting him. I love the iron beds! It makes me sad because it looks like they left at Christmastime.
Thank you Big Bankz. I always enjoy your explores. The land is beautiful. A treat to have you show us. I feel for that house. It was certainly quite lovely in its day. It appears to have given ups ghost as well when its owners had past. I lastly appreciate your judgement where to step and not. Thank you for your style, choice, and. .
A lot of bad history for sure.. It can not be any good history in my eyes if they were keeping slaves.. But I am sure he raised a beautiful family who can tell others about their ancestors' history.. Thank you for sharing all the beautiful mansions you are finding
That man must have been a brute to his wife's The first two passed away before he did ! And than on to his third wife, who he gave eightt kids to. He must have been extremely rough on his women. Smh Nice video and thankyou for sharing ! And also Congratulations to you on your engagement ! Hopefully you will be content and loved, 💍💒 we love what you do and sharing it, thankyou so much !
Upstairs in the house you can see elements of newer stuff, like those bi-fold doors to the closet. In the bathroom the light fixture over the sink looks 60’s.
I will never advocate taking something out of an abandoned house. The notebook with cursive writing would be coming with me. I would bring it to a historian. There has to be history in that home and it is in that book.
The flowers in all likelihood are azaleas. The dresser in the first bedroom is nearly identical to the one I have that belonged to my great grandparents and possibly by gr-gr-grands before them. The second room doesn't seem to have much period furniture left. The China cabinet appears to be Depression era with the buffet probably late 1800's to early 1900's. All the dressers and small tables are antique. Same thing in the living room. The last bedroom was a full size bed and the darker pieces of furniture were aged darkened oak. I really like what you young men are doing, visiting these abandoned homes, but each of you need to spend some time studying woods, furniture styles, and thesauruses to tune up your descriptive words. Keep up the good work.
I live in Chesapeake and we all know the South gets plummeted by Hurricanes. The weather and high humidity is what is trashing that house. In Virginia we are lucky if the umbrellas we buy last 1 season. I bet it was gorgeous when it was made and lived in. Do be careful and wear isolation style masks around the mold, it's really awful in some places.
My 5 year old son was quietly walking around house with flashlight, I asked him what he was doing. He said ‘shhh I’m big bankz and I’m exploring this abandoned house!’
😂keep up the GREAT videos! We LOVE them!!!
Hahah I love that! Made my whole day! Tell him I said hi!!
Will anyone save this home and or rehab it it's so Beautiful to just let it sit there ❤
Let this be a reminder that material things are temporary, but once we pass away we will all be judged on the state of our hearts and what we did in this world. Treat others with kindness.
No one is going to be judged, religion is a money making scam! The woman shall remain shall remain silent.
Jesus saves.
One if my least favorite!! Nothing special at all. Sorry
We know that, but this is interesting
We'll also be judged by the material stuff we leave behind.
I always want to just cry when I see such vintage and antique furniture just left to rot. I'll never understand why people leave so many beautiful things behind.
I feel the same! If it was just left why can’t someone come in and give this beautiful stuff a mew life where it eill be appreciated
I think that all this beautiful pieces of material stuff may very well be possessed with negative, bad energies because of dark past events!...
Well I have left my bed and other things behind. Not because I wanted to tho. It was because I moved in an old house and didn’t know there was toxic mold growing under the house. Months later I find out but it was white the mold so hard to see on things that are light in colour… I left a lot of my things there and left with what was safe. The bed was touching the wall and maybe had mold on it. I didn’t want to risk my health (I found out about the mold in the first place because I got to sick living there and almost died from the mold)
@@YanDesgagneBlanc I understand that something like that could happen but that's not always the case.
Me too. I don't understand it I would dream about owning things like that myself.
Your channel is my favorite for these videos. Your voice is so calm and I adore how respectful you are to the property
Those deep pink flowers are called Azaleas, they are so beautiful used in the South 😊❤❤❤
I live in Norfolk, VA where every year they have The Azalea Festival. I have three azaleas that have been here since I bought the place 14 years ago. They must live a long time.
From what I have seen on gardening pages, those azeleas are well over a hundred years old.
Wrong they look like crape myrtles
@@powerkorAzaleas.
It amazes me how a house can decay without love
Happens to humans too without love they decay
It begins to dry rot
What struck me was in the living room, the chair in the corner had an open book over the arm of the chair. Like the person stopped reading and left. Wonder what the title of the book was. Good job. Beautiful home.
I couldn't imagine just leaving all the antique furniture and stuff there to rot.
I know it just breaks my heart😮😮😮😮😮
I wonder if taking those things would be against the law at the time and then it just was too far gone by the time no one owned it…
So sad, even in her demise she still shines. Thankyou for sharing this lovely home.
That vanity mirror is amazing
All those beautiful antiques. i want to rescue them all. So sad but still lovely
Comfortable living room & bedroom.Would love to have one of those old metal frame beds & small childs chair❤

❤❤❤❤❤ houses in the south!!!!
Big rooms, Kitchen.
Misses my southern home!!!
That geeen couch was dope. Would love to see it restored. Also loved the cat ironing board. 😸
This very historic sn kinda sad to see this house in disrepair adventure Big bankz ,thank you. For taking all us along an congratulations on your engagement
My favorite part is the fact that it is in "The Middle Of Nowhere" !!! . . a beautiful home - at one time
Shame that this old house was left to decay
Some beautiful things still there
Thank you for sharing and take care
See you in next video
❤❤❤❤
Thank you as Always, Very Much Appreciate You 🙏

Beautiful house Bankz, wow! Great example of a Time Capsule indeed. The table is a train table. My nephews had one when they were younger. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi from Canada 🇨🇦 Thanks for the interesting Video.
That was the same design home that my grandfather built in a small town in SW Virginia. I spend many happy days in the swing trying to sing. Lol
Amazing house, But it's sad to see a house left behind and it breaks my heart, but I'm sure those lovely people never thought that their lovely house would be left behind.
You sound crazy those were not lovely people how are those monsters considered lovely people for what they did in that house while owning slaves !
@@stylish1012 They aint own no slaves bruh. Not every plantation had slaves.
@@raidergainzx5290”built by slaves” so yeah they had slaves
@@stylish1012Just stop!
@@jessiem276 who made you “chief comments”?
Thx 4 sharing, as always great job. Luv the antiques.
Much luv
Carry on
This living room gives off peaceful feeling
That place is more than likely haunted. Beautiful home with such an ugly history.

@@candice446There's nothing ugly about it.
There is nothing "Gorgeous " about this house. It is dilapidated and gone.Im sure at one time it was beautiful.
That 1st bedroom is like someone comes and stays! . Its like creepy . The last bedroom is cool too! Great video! ❤
I’m amazed how do you find these houses?? So many are out in nowhere land. You do such a great job describing what you see. It’s so hard to believe everything was left like that. Thanks!
I noticed some beautiful handmade quilts!!
That's what drew me too. You'd think a family member would have rescued them - I've rescued several old quilts that I display.
@@patriciaphelps5875 so much time and hard work went into them. My grandma used to talk about how the ladies would get together and work on them. So much history in each one.
Sad that all those dishes and furniture can't be taken and reused. It's history!
Loved this house! Saw some glasses that I have from my grandmother. Amazing vanity in the master bedroom!❤
0:02 I always love to look at the trees to see if there are any which may have been there when the house was built.
Wow, some nice antiques.
This home is beautiful love the white beds and all of the other vintage things. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend 😊
BigBankz thanks for sharing this with me i really enjoyed it and God Bless.
It's a beautiful house and to see all the old furniture still intact is wonderful, just so sad it wasn't kept up. thank you for sharing I enjoyed the video.

You do such a beautiful job on your videos. You have a wonderful heart. Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world.
So sad to see beautiful houses gone to ruin... great job love your calm demeer and voice warm vibes from Ireland ✨🕊️☘️

Hi BigBankz 🙋🏽. I almost missed this one. It's good to see you. I hope your Son is doing well.👍🏽👊🏽💯
Love all that left behind antique furniture!
The Hoosier cabinet in the kitchen is awesome.
What a beautiful home! I sure hate to see it abandoned with thing’s left behind ! Very cool video bro! ❤️🤘😢👍
You can tell that there was a lot of family living there at one time. The one bedroom must have been an elderly man's bedroom. There were at least six chairs in that room that were set up like they were visiting him. I love the iron beds! It makes me sad because it looks like they left at Christmastime.
This house gives me "Little House On The Prairie" vibes.
Those are probably heart of pine floors and they are worth salvaging. I didn't get a good look at them. Some nice antiques, iron beds and crystal.
Thank you Big Bankz. I always enjoy your explores.
The land is beautiful. A treat to have you show us.
I feel for that house. It was certainly quite lovely in its day. It appears to have given ups ghost as well when its owners had past.
I lastly appreciate your judgement where to step and not.
Thank you for your style, choice, and. .
Yes very incredible so sad it was left to rot
i love watching antiques
I feel such anguish seeing this abandoned home. Oh how I long to have the antique furniture and linens for myself.
A lot of bad history for sure.. It can not be any good history in my eyes if they were keeping slaves.. But I am sure he raised a beautiful family who can tell others about their ancestors' history.. Thank you for sharing all the beautiful mansions you are finding
Love the vintage old charm
Hi. I like your videos and you are awesome big bankz
Thank you for sharing this video i like to watch you no music i the background and your so calm i like the way you explain things 👍👍👍🥰
Gorgeous house❤ I love the old plantation homes
The book still open on the arm of the chair is heartbreaking 😢 I'm surprised squatters haven't moved in or taken everything from these properties.
It is a beautiful home. It should be repaired and saved. I hoped you would show us the owner's grave.
Oiih,,what lovely bink flauwors this home,,i love🌸🌹🍃🌾💓💓💓😄
Thanks! That was a great exploration!
Wish you would've shown more than just a quick glimpse of that Hoosier cabinet in the kitchen.
Love the house. The table with tracks in kitchen looks like Thomas the Train set. The sets are really cool for kids. Beautiful grounds outside too
Gorgeous azaelas! ❤
TY for your videos. 🙏💖✨😇
Reminds me off Grandma house in Virginia
It would have been beautiful in it's day ! Thank you Big Banks for another great place❤
Loving those beds! ❤
Awesome thank you
I love that living room
That man must have been a brute to his wife's
The first two passed away before he did !
And than on to his third wife, who he gave eightt kids to.
He must have been extremely rough on his women. Smh
Nice video and thankyou for sharing !
And also Congratulations to you on your engagement !
Hopefully you will be content and loved, 💍💒 we love what you do and sharing it,
thankyou so much !
Surprisingly there wasn't a main staircase. Nice video❤😊
How can u call this a beautifull place the whipping and the abuse and suffering of people who had to live here and endure such pain..
Those pictures of the family look like they were taken in the 60s!
Those pink flowers are azaleas...grow like crazy in the south.

I think it was beautiful home at one time
Love the house.. you didn't explain the history of the house.. I Love listening about the history
Parts of it really are a mess, but it looks like it has been lived in within the past few years
I hope someone rescues the antiques before the house completely caves in
thank u for this video i needed this today
those beautiful "pink flowers" are azaelas. !!! I enjoy your videos. They are all interesting.
Luv that you start off with scripture.You have a very soothing voice Hope all is well.I think the flowers that are pink are azalea
bushes outside.
Omg the houser cabinet !
Man that furniture needs rescuing .I understand the history and why you wouldn’t want to save it but the furniture my goodness
