Abandoned Log Cabin Hidden Deep in the Woods w/ Antiques Inside

[@2late4me2care]

I was gifted (by a 106 year old woman) an old wash stand, matching dresser, chest of drawers, a wardrobe, a few other pieces plus two iron beds. Every piece is in wonderful condition. All of my friends were like, nice 70's furniture. The beds were from the mid 1800's and all wood furniture from the late 1800's. I was lucky enough to have been given receipts and paperwork for some items. Yep, I'm one lucky old grump!

[@tigerann4941]

That Fire King Range is from the 1920-30s. By the 1960s we had wall ovens and modern ranges like we have today.

[@tirzah4930]

No we didn’t.

[@MsCripplex]

As you went in. The first stove was an antique wood stove with warming oven. The next is a 1930s freezer refrigerator a large one. The next room had a Hoosier cabinet in two pieces on the floor back in the day there were no wall cabinets just things like this, you had a flour bin and all your baking needs in this with matching spice and other containers. The enamel top pulled forward to get more work area and back when not in use. I would love one but cannot afford it. The gas stove with green enamel is a 1930s and beautiful! What a beautiful home I wish it could be adopted and restored, be safe!

The big appliance that you saw in the kitchen, was a literal icebox. They would put a chunk of ice in the bigger box inside, and that's what kept their food cold. The green and white stove, was from the forties. I was born in 1968, and we had regular stoves, refrigerators, and freezers.

I was born in 1944. My grandmother had a ice box..The ice man would come on serving days and delivered ice..grand pa would always chip of a piece of ice for me in the summer. Was a big treat to get a cold piece on a hot day..

[@deirdrepasko9056]

The Fire King stove is from the 1920's-30's. It was considered modern back in the day. People either used wood, coal, or both to cook with. It could also be fitted for gas depending on where one lived. The white porcelain box on legs, was a modern ice box. It was a major improvement over the wooden ones with tin linings. The cabinet on the floor with the trees on the doors, in the room with the organ, is most likely a 'Sellars' kitchen work station. It's called a knock down' because the top (obviously) can be removed from the bottom. The bottom part was to the front of the top part in that room. Sellars, or more commonly called, 'Hoosier' from where they were manufactured, were quite popular from the 1920's to 1950, some later depending on the State. Sellar cabinets are a hot item still to this very day, as people are returning to a simpler way of life. The same with the Fire King stove. In fact, everything in there is VERY valuable! Cool find. Thanks so much for the video.

[@puca7908]

Absolutely wonderful explore Kap! I would love to live in a nice little place tucked away in the woods like this one! I'd have a pack of Irish Wolfhounds, a German Shepard, few kitties, and a chicken or two, maybe a couple miniature goats.

Amazing, simply amazing! You can see why they gave up, in the room where the sheet rock was laid up against the wall, the house has started to sag. It could be fixed no doubt about that. As for when you were in the upstairs, you mentioned that the wood was black, not because of a fire, because of dampness and age. This house could definitely be saved. 10 thumbs up on this one kappy!

That is a neat cabin. My grandmother was born in 1895. She had an icebox made out of wood similar to the one in the cabin. I think it is probably older than the one in the cabin.

Looking from the outside (which looks a bit worn now), you'd never really know just how remarkably well preserved the inside of this log cabin really is until you step in.

Ah, you've taken me back 70 years or more again, Kappy, to our vacations in northern Wisconsin's woods! The Fire King wood or gas kitchen stoves wwere built between 1920 and 1940. The one in this cabin looks like the one in "A Christmas Story" and, I think, in Jessica Fletcher's kitchen in Cabot Cove on "Murder She Wrote." The ice box you couldn't identify might be gas operated, strange as that seems. I stayed with a friend for a long weekend in his family's cabin, deep in the woods, and still haven't figured out how a gas flame can produce cold (maybe someone can tell us?). That cabinet at 3:56 is a pie safe used to cool freshly baked pies, cakes, etc., away from pesky flies (children, husbands, etc. lol). Watched Norm Abrams build a couple on "New Yankee Workshop." Quite a contrast between the rustic utility and ornate mansion! I really liked this one, Kappy. BTW, did I see you carefully staying in the center of that rather nice bridge, coming in, to take advantage of the strength of the center support beams? Good move!

Eileen Bauer. I think it looks like it’s more work than they were willing to take on. To me, the new wall doesn’t tie in with the cabin at all and it isn’t in keeping with the primitive quality of the cabin. Some of those logs look pretty pulpy. Taking on a project like this takes an incredible amount of work and knowledge. I think they got overwhelmed and gave up, sadly.

The Charleston home is Drayton Hall and a wonderful place to visit, fully original. On the same stretch of scenic road there's Middleton Place and Magnolia Gardens also open to the public to visit along the Ashley River outside Charleston each can take half a day or more to fully enjoy. I wish I could explain the mixture of architecture and incredible beauty of nature at these places, a surprise to see after looking at the cabin because I was honestly trying to determine what area of the country it was in and it definitely wouldn't be from the Low Country with that basement or the stone. I hope I can find more thoughts on the cabin in comments so left the location and a little information about the mansion in case it helps after seeing it mentioned. I've spent 2 decades exploring, renovating and traveling whenever possible I learn everything I can about older homes it life's hobby.

@Danielle Hutto ~ Me too!! I used to live in one just like it. I rented it from the sweetest old man. I had people stop by all the time saying they drove by and admired this cabin for years and asking if they could see inside. I always let them because I had it fixed up so nice! I would go to yard sales and auctions to find old things to decorate with, like very old pictures, lanterns, a whiskey barrel to catch rainwater, iron skillets hung on pegs on the walls, old quilts, an old steamer trunk for a coffee table, ect. It was so warm and cozy. The old man I rented from said he wanted me to live there forever. And I would have! He got really sick, really fast with brain cancer and passed away less than a month after being diagnosed. Not long after his sister came by one day. She said she knew George wanted to give me the cabin and some land, but he didn’t have time to put it in his will. He was a widower with no children, and one of nine siblings and the majority of them chose to sell the cabin and all the land together, which was several hundred acres. I couldn’t afford to buy it all. My heart was broken not only for myself, but for George too. 💔 I’m sorry I wrote a book, but once I started I couldn’t stop.

Your videos are the best, Our family restored two historic buildings on the National Historic Register. So your videos are so important for inspiring preservation interest. I'll stop rambling and just wanted to explain about the white refrigerator in the kitchen. It's a ammonia gas fridge made by the Serval Co. The badge on the door is the giveaway. Sorry to say due to a lawsuit over a accidental entrapment they had a reward out for their destruction. A 100.00 payment when you removed the door and sent the hinges back to them. They are so rare to find, they ran on a tiny bit of propane ( hence the small flame badge) and worked beautifully. At night in a stone quiet cabin you would be comforted by the barley audible burgle of the refrigerant percolating. Of course our cat would always sleep on vent grill on top of it.

Howdydoo Kappy-nice work! The second stove was from the late ‘20’s/early ‘30’s. The tall appliance was an icebox. In the second room where the organ was, the was a Hoosier dry sink in two pieces-the bottom piece usually had a door to a space with a rack shelf and several drawers, the bottom one fairly large and lined with zinc for food storage. The bottom piece was also topped by an enamel top that would slide out a few inches to make it more useful. The top piece-sort of a hutch in design-had built in, behind a door, a storage chute for flour. It had a crank for dispensing and would already sift the flour as it was dispensed. Hoosiers were VERY popular in the ‘30’s/‘40’s. Seems like this place had been outfitted, perhaps updated to include the bathroom, in the ‘30’ what with two appliances from the’30 and the Hoosiermpkp

The cabin looked like someone was going to drywall over the original logs. But cool just the same

The Fire King stove is from the 1920s. That green is called Jadeite (Jade- ite) green and there was all kinds of china ware that was made called Jadeite. Now they are making reproduction green Jadeite. The pump organ is about 1890-1900. The handles on each side were to make it easy to move. Organs that never had the fancy tops were called chapel or church organs and that was because the top would have blocked the view of the organist when they played for congregational singing. Nice explore!

I thought that FireKing was also a type of china. I have a plate I eat on that is jade-ite green. They made bakeware too.

[@kimberlaw5934]

Love the stove, the ice box. That organ is beautiful. Might have I saw the fire extinguisher. Oh yes now that is what I'm talking about. I'm moving in. Maybe not. Lol

The log cabin has squared logs with mortise and tenon corner joints. The upstairs was a sleeping loft that has been shored up. Fireplace was covered up, it was probably in the front room. Best use would be to take the house apart and rebuild using those old hewn logs.

Great video !

[@jencameron8124]

Wow, what an absolutely fascinating place - it's quite a step back in time! It's such things as the axe blade marks and the little stream bridge that really amps up it's appeal. How do you stumble across these fantastic treasures, Kappy?! Thanks so much for sharing 🙂

[@makeupboss9812]

Cute little place. Could be saved .

[@barbkeil-burton6894]

Hi Kappy, I just looked up that Fire King antique green & white stove, it`s from 1920`s & is worth $1, 600.00 right now April/2022. But thanks for the adventure! Take care & stay safe from USA

[@slarson8044]

I also think the Fire King stove was 1920s to 1930s. My maternal grandmother had something similar but it was old then. We had a regular oven and top stove when I was a kid in the 1960s. Very interesting video.

[@christina7774]

Lol 1960 stove seriously😁? Thing? Looks like a ice box 😊You must be a real young guy.....those are priceless and can withstand any modern fridge or stove from this generation , nice find.😁👌
