Elderly Couple's House Abandoned Since 1999! Everything Left!

[@veronicapace7198]

It is so refreshing hearing a young person saying nice things about older people.

[@taylorburton5489]

The lady of the house kept a beautiful home, she had good taste in design, sadly we will never see this kind of quality again! 🎩

[@LunaMesser-zw8xh]

I agree very classy

[@DiegoGene-fh3zp]

That's why I love old school stuff

[@rtro80sguysacramento33]

This video made me subscribe.. hope to see more cool content like this!!

[@kathyjenkins4067]

The lady of the house was beautiful!❤

[@ihave35cents95]

You need to get out more

[@charlotted9045]

Lovely house I hope someone saves it And saves all the beautiful furniture and rugs New subscriber 😊

[@joboo4451]

I hope someone rescues this place before everything is ruined.

[@memby93x]

Takes me back to spending time at my grandparent's house in the late 90s when I was a kid. Amazing.

[@ninamosha]

Such a beautiful home so exquisite for its day and it still is. Some of us are still a bit old school. This was a couple who took pride in their decor and lived well. I'm so glad the lady of the home's skills has been documented for all to see a job well done on your part. I grew up around this style as well. The homeowners remained well satisfied by their decor that's wonderful. Kept it most likely as his beloved wife wanted it. Always makes me sad to see such things abandoned but I continue to remind myself of a beautiful couple's life that was enjoyed here well into an old age. I love your videos that show all the contents of these homes not that I don't appreciate architecture because I do but this home is wayyyy over the top! Keep up the good work! I forgot to mention the retro tile is awesome!

[@dojocho1894]

I'm up on the upper east side of manhattan... My family is from Florence, Italy. my whole place is Rococo....people come in and love it...I had a girl come over and she saw it and started to cry said it was so beautiful........some of us still wont give in to IKEA.

[@jordanhill4870]

I adore the way its decorated. I'm only 24 but lived with my grandmother whose house had practically been the same since the 80's at the latest, But most of the furniture and decorations were from the 50's

[@ElaineMontaro]

As an antique dealer i see lots of antiques, vintage and collectibles, the bedroom suites are lovely pieces . This content can be sold as an entire lot and the home auctioned. This will be a tragic loss if someone doesn't step in soon . Thank you for the explore ❤

[@KT06]

I always get such a sad feeling watching time capsule home videos, what was once loved and cherished now sitting to rot. I'd at least hold an estate sale and let it go to others who would appreciate it!

[@JulieSkeltonUK]

I feel the same. There should be things in place so that this doesn't happen so much.

[@tiredgato]

I really appreciate how you included the background history of the home. It helps keep the house alive in memory, even after all these years.

[@jaxyab]

Such a lovely home. So organized and beautifuly decorated. I love your excitement and sense of humor. My first time watching you.

[@Shettikka-s9v]

A sitting room ❤ 🫶🏾 for the lady of the house. Knitting 🧶, tea and company, chatting 😊, reading .. relaxing.

[@tritonb.1746]

I think you understand the appreciation of things from the past, and respect for others. Well done.

[@malindahenke5724]

This makes me so sad. Hope someone can take over the home & gardens. I get it. Its hard to let your parents home go. Ive been thru this. But its worse to let it sit and rot! 😢

[@DiegoGene-fh3zp]

I think it should be fixed up instead of letting it go

[@karenmusemeche4706]

I love that you can appreciate old things. Your voice sounds young so that’s amazing to me.

[@DiegoGene-fh3zp]

I love vintage things that's why I'm saving up to buy vintage things I'm only 22

[@asa1973100]

Oh please don’t ever let anybody know the location, they’ll absolutely destroy it and that would be beyond heartbreaking

[@Shettikka-s9v]

I wouldn't mind living there ❤, I'll deep clean 🫧 and gladly restore and maintain ❤

[@sewndebisdream6953]

Very educated...neat...blessed with a lot...well organized...great people lived here I feel. Table near the bed looked like a sewing machine cabinet. Great find! Sad no family left to take care of things left. Enjoyed this so much! Thanks!

[@Annabow-h9p]

If I lived there I would keep the paintings!!!!😊

[@cheryls3162]

Loved this house a tribute to the couple who lived there. So many things that nobody in today's day and age would be remotely interested in. But it is nice that it will be permanently preserved on video. So sad the pictures and portraits are left. 😞

[@kimmurphy9436]

Beautiful home in its day, hopefully someone saves it before it rots too much..Thanks for video

[@CathyWolfanger]

I especially love all the windows and all the beautiful artifacts you look like a home that had a lot of love in it🥰

[@arnelf36]

There's a 2013 Home Reports publication in the sun room so how can it be abandoned since 1999?

[@carolgossett8277]

That’s exactly what I said.

[@kittybeck151]

Obviously, someone else put that there, probably a family member doing research.

[@MissMist95]

My favorite part about these videos is seeing the lovely ladies dressing table/vanity and such. I look out for the distinct hair brushes that women used to use. The boar bristle/nylon. Those brushes are what I use and am very passionate about them. It reminds me of how much I enjoy being a woman. The simple pleasures of sitting at my vanity, putting on some makeup and perfume and brushing my hair. It makes me feel connected to them in a special way and makes me feel abit melancholy for how her vanity items are waiting to be used. What a beautiful woman from her portraits. ❤

[@franca59mattu64]

Vero....anche io stesse sensazioni....

[@MissMist95]

[@valpikus9172]

She really loved her home it’s an honor to witness her efforts god bless her, I will be leaving my home someday probably no one will want my belongings. It hurts , we try to make homes for others.

[@marinamartinez6886]

Sad to see another lovely home left to rot. There had to be 100 nice framed artworks in there. 👍👍👍

[@euniceloy7120]

As you were walking through, because of how unique this place is, like a time capsule, I thought it would be awesome, if someone actually bought the place, and made it into an Air Bud or a museum leaving everything exactly the way it is now. Cleaning it up of course, making sure it's safe, such as the floors, walls. But could you imagine how amazing it would be for somebody to use this as an Air Bud, just spend their time out in the country and to have the opportunity to walk through looking at all the unique artifacts, artwork and figurines. Essentially going back in time. I just recently watched a gentleman who rented a lighthouse as an Air Bud, and was able to walk around and look at the way it had been when it was still a lighthouse. That's why when I saw this I thought what a wonderful opportunity to fix this place up and give people a unique experience to go back in time. Or even as a museum.

[@carlashepherd9362]

What a beautiful time capsule house! Wonderful find & explore! 👍👍❤️✊🤘

[@Nannyg223]

I like peeking in cabinet, closets etc. I like to see dates on items, gives an idea when they were last in use. But I like the furnished places too, a glimpse too the past, you can kinda feel the presence of love that used to live there. Brings back my own memories of growing up in the 70s and going to grandparents. It’s a peaceful, calming effect. It’s weird to get a vibe like that just from a video, perhaps it’s the care and respect you have. Thank you for that!

[@63connie78]

very nice find....they put some thought into their environs....color, texture, unusual furnishings (not mass produced).....in contrast to today's bland white, white and more white vacant decor....what we leave behind....thnx a mil

[@TanyaIaconis]

How beautiful, they must have been very happy there❤

[@MM-xz6bk]

The books you were questioning; published in 19th century, writer Rudyard Kipling (best known for 'The Jungle Book') he used Sanskrit "symbol" for its Buddhism/Hindu meaning of PEACE, WELL BEING, Good Fortune. Kipling died in 1936, at the start of WW2. Hope this info helps.

[@tag7592]

Thanks for the wonderful, heartwarming video! Love time capsules like you ❤

[@RubberWilbur]

hi, if the house has been abandoned since 99, then why is there a "Home Report" from 2013 at minute 9:01? Just curious.

[@ResilientBRN]

He said he wasn’t sure when the wife died I believe.

[@rustyshackleford7082]

My thought is if it's just unoccupied, then this is B&E.

[@MichaelArledge-i5f]

Beautiful house

[@wheelie642]

11:46 I still use the exact same washing machine and dryer. Best machines ever.

[@brendafranklin5773]

The house looks like it’s been abandoned for quite awhile but the electricity is still on.

[@naomitmphande3990]

Can a family member come forward and look after this beautiful home. Wow!

[@angelafitzgerald7407]

Inside of house looks classy looking

[@doug8525]

It’s so nice to see a place that hasn’t been destroyed by idiots. I’m guessing by all the books that these people were fairly intelligent. It’s a very nice home. If someone is going to save it, the time is now. Thanks for a great tour…

[@carla5830]

The artwork, rugs, and curtains are awesome, not to mention the beautiful ornate furniture. This style is being re- inverted as Grand Milenial.

[@angelic_pig]

Great video! 🎉 keep up all the good work.❤😊❤

[@Theresawinner]

Great explore wonderful time capsule My mom was the youngest of 7 children so my aunts and uncles were older their houses were full of great older items full of history Sure, takes me back to my childhood visiting my relatives my dad had lots of brothers and sisters too so i had too many cousins to keep track of so i love old houses I think their fascinating cluttered but organized and neat kept tidy and clean Keep up the good work😂😂😂

[@Shettikka-s9v]

The man seems like, someone to learn from ❤

[@karengalileo9725]

Beautiful find. When you open drawers/cupboards or remove lids (jewelry boxes) please leave as found - just a suggestion. Thanks for sharing

[@annepoe8026]

Rudyard Kipling Kipling was an English writer and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. was born in Bombay, India, on 30 December 1865.

[@mariusstirbu6713]

Just like the lady, the former owner of the house, we, too, will leave everything here on earth. The things we now consider indispensable, the dear objects, will all be abandoned after our departure. Just like the lady. We actually fight for material things, considering that we are immortal and death comes to others, not to us. And so we invest in objects, not in the spiritual part. A lesson in this video. Your clothes, your books, your couch, etc. will all be trashed one day. Live the day, the moment and enjoy your loved ones.

[@Shettikka-s9v]

The lady seems like, homemade blueberry muffins or cookies 🍪 and milk 🥛 inviting.

[@patriciakelly2714]

I’m an older woman and this beautiful old house is going to ruin. I would hate to think that when my husband I died our home would be left to rot. It’s very sad. If there is any family it would be nice if they could sell it so someone else could reform it and have a lovely home. Thank you for sharing. X

[@patkilmurray4702]

Amazingly cool house, a lot of the books were old novels and a few new ones.

[@lindabrennan4455]

I believe that much of the furniture and pictures in that home are valuable. Nevertheless they are beautiful. 😊 ❤

[@ilovesketching1]

I believe this lady enjoyed the vintage musical boxes I believe I saw some ballerinas & birds and other varieties of vintage knickknacks they for certain were book readers. They love the outdoors & what beautiful picture windows, and the lighting that came through the house wow! I just thank you so much for opening the doors to us to take us back in time. Back in that day, I was surprised to see a press button phone and not a rotary phone . :) and I love to see the old TVs and old radios 😂this was great! 👍🏼

[@marlenewilson6175]

There was a catalog or directory for 2013. In one of the first room

[@dianamarie9689]

What a beautiful painting of the lady of the house over the fireplace!

[@MissZiss]

There were paintings and pictures of her all over the house.

[@tsullivan380]

I thought you did a really nice job documenting this house. 👍

[@southernmomma2460]

How bittersweet! ❤️She a lady! I am a book person, but I need to see the titles to know. They are gorgeous though! Many of those figurines are collectable items. Porcelain. 😮 She would had been mortified to have the outside look like that. As I have said to many students, you have the knowledge to make your future the history you want it to be. 😊

[@TinaBreese-o5w]

Someone is maintaining to a point it has electric

[@carla5830]

My grands was Spanish she lived in California, her home was very Spanish/ European. I’ve never seen another home like my grandmother had. I am 62, so we are talking late seventies early eighties. She passed about at 62 yrs old, right after retirement.

[@12donna52]

New to your channel. Loved this video so so much brings back memories I remember of my childhood and grandparents days. The old house smell never leaves. Homes still left is either family members fighting over the property or the it is still in probate. If the husband died in that house lots of luck for it to be sold. Seriously seen it happen numerous times. Can't wait until your next video this one is definitely a time capsule and should be shown to the public as a museum. Love stuff like this please do more.❤

[@lesleycollins2535]

What an awesome video I do love the house anyway take care

[@sylviarippey6488]

Love the sun room! 🌞💛🪴 Someone should have had an estate sale. So many people could have enjoyed these treasures.

[@abbyfromkc652]

Love it! No kid’s trashing it with graffiti. Makes me think of my grandmother who died when I was in high school The office area had women’s clothing but bedroom had men’s???

[@Shettikka-s9v]

Intellectuals, Love knowledge, history, how-to ❤ expansions of the mind, learning as a past time hobby 😀 good people to hang around ❤❤❤ interesting 🤔 to revel in what they know and embrace what they know.

[@suzannebirkholz8757]

IMO time capsules are the best!! Ty for this amazing explore!!

[@lauraansara5066]

Alot of the stuff in the kitchen, dishes, electric fryer, crock pot, is stuff i collect... thanx for the tour...kinda sad it was all just left loke there was no other family who loved them...they must not have had any children

[@zoethebear]

They were quite well off and purchased the best of the best. They were organized and likely had a very full social life. That blue kitchen table with the blue bench seating was for sure imported. The bed in the 1st bedroom was insane. So cool. The bathroom in the basement had great tiles. I believe likely no children or maybe 1. I’d love to have seen it in its prime. Great find. I really enjoyed that one.

[@TerjeLei]

From all the books and pictures on the walls my guess is the lady was å teacher.

[@HotRollBrad]

I believe that since the food was all removed that a relative cleaned it out and planed to come back. It is hard to deal with the grief and memories of the house. We had to deal with my the death of my brother. We removed all food. He left everything to his stepchildren but they wanted nothing in his house and allowed us to go in and retrieve family photos and personal property. One week after deed was transferred they listed and sold his house.

[@Shettikka-s9v]

My grandma had books 📚 like that, I remember, multiple stories in the books ❤ other's history.

[@lindamartin8504]

Love that blue maybe navy related

[@southernmomma2460]

The Do Not Open cabinet was probably where she proofed things or let them set.

[@mariusstirbu6713]

There is something to learn from here. You take nothing with you, and the pursuit of material things robs you of your life time. They all get left behind, even if you've dedicated your life to collecting them. Isn't happiness emanated strictly from the soul and heart, unrelated to the material part? I met simple people who only had the bare necessities and were quiet and happy. And I knew people with big houses and a lot of money, who were very agitated and anxious that they might lose all their wealth. And in the end, wealth stays here. The head of Amazon, Microsoft, etc. will also leave it here on earth. Be happy with what you have and enjoy every moment. Time is the greatest asset

[@Shettikka-s9v]

Good afternoon 🌄 blessings 🫶🏾, interesting 🤔 sad for the couple beautiful 😍 story

[@boknows7568]

it’s boring to watch a video of sn empty house!! love the time capsules and when you guys go through all tbe drawers and boxes! very interesting find

[@ndog2005]

Great video, Did I hear right, 'something bit your foot, no more videos'. Sure hope your Ok?

[@aminahparker8415]

Beautiful home! Thank you

[@Shettikka-s9v]

Looks a little like my grandparents home 🏡❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@conniejohnson290]

Awesome video.

[@dallaswilson1984]

You'd think if they had children they would have wanted the family belongings, possibly the home. In any case, if there are children, they could have sold the estate instead of letting go to ruins

[@chrisk7626]

I don't know about you guys watching it but I would move in as is it looks super comfortable like Grandma's house🎉 I've had this great idea and everyone I tell it to who's from newer generations thinks it's a great idea buy this place intact. Fix it up make it functional leave everything in there that you can and Airbnb it I would advertise it is spending the night at Grandma's house🎉 it's already furnished you don't have to put anything in it. The only thing I would do is replace the mattresses.

[@ronaldclark5678]

Very good video ❤❤

[@mrskingkong1485]

How sad places are left to the elements!! Maybe grief and just couldnt face it and time just got away. Sad it wasnt sold with housing the way it is!

[@Rolliej1996]

That house after organizing and clean everything inside? Wow! that's gonna be a very beautiful place to live in.

[@Somewhereintime22]

It’ll probably need updated electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and a new roof (standard updates for older homes), but if someone could get it for a good price and be willing to put in a lot of work and roll the dice on what else might be wrong with it then it could be a wonderful home for someone. *** repair wild cards would be rot, termites, damage from leaks, leveling, yard drainage, tree work (expensive!), fireplace repair and possible leaks around the chimney, and floor refinishing or replacement.

[@lauraaranda7185]

Those window blinds though, the gold detailing on it, they don't make them like that anymore.

[@Shettikka-s9v]

My mom had a typewriter like that ❤

[@DavidBerquist334]

Have you ever had a family member contact you saying remove your videos

[@TravelsOfNema]

These old houses and homes have _culture_ in them. The modern ones are _culture free_ . Sad. We have to "go back" and re-learn how to live well, how to create a good society again.

[@DiegoGene-fh3zp]

Yep that's why I appreciate old stuff and I'm 22

[@Somewhereintime22]

The nicest thing would be if a young couple bought this house with all the contents. A couple who appreciates the character and taste that was so lovingly put into this home for so many years. I’ve seen a newish trend with something called Grandma Chic. I’ve also started to see more beautiful and timeless decorating using color drenching and carefully curated vignettes. Some of these young women content creators are amazingly talented and really have a gift for decorating. It would be great to see what someone like that could do with this house.

[@suepowell5008]

That mirror with the seashells is called a Sailor's Valentine. A type of shell art made by sailors at see. They can be quite intricate and beautiful.

[@alangrant5684]

If any looters did go through there is the reason I hope ghost hauntings are real.

[@MeaghanEdwards]

Beautiful old home, looks like they loved birds.

[@M-daughterofourbeloved11]

seems like this was a well edeucated, upper middle class couple, who treasured manners, etiquette and love for poeple

[@reesedaniel5835]

Agreed. Just like my beloved grandparents who I still miss every single day. People are not like that anymore.

[@SherryHill-k5y]

​​@@reesedaniel5835I agree and reminds me of my grandparent's house. They're both gone and so is the house.😢

[@careystayton2663]

It's pretty clean!!

[@TinnaRebate]

The house is so nice ❤

[@ritamills3417]

19:27 An orb passed in front of the giant headboard of the bed to the corner of the room. Thank you for sharing this absolutely lovely time capsule with us. I really loved it.

[@chronos4573]

I think the orb was a refraction of the handheld light source off the dresser mirror and his phone picked it up the refraction as movement because the phone was moving.

[@ritamills3417]

@chronos4573 It wasn't. I watched it many times.

[@dannylong6301]

Love the 2 brass eagles on the book shelves in the one bedroom

[@myrnakenealy7324]

BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES THAT ARE LONG GONE 😢

[@vernabryant2894]

I love the pictures.

[@bunnydauphinais2842]

The home is beautiful. Those books are an assorted collection of encyclopedias. Each from a different year or era.

[@TomSherwood-z5l]

Makes me wonder when I see these what is wrong with the family? Setting on a property till it collapses means it is worth nothing. No one wants any of their stuff? At least it is not trashed like alot of them by vandals. Otherwise it is a waste by the family or whoever.

[@evil1st]

Typically when there is nobody left that wants or inherets the property, and the property taxes arent paid it either goes to the insurance company or it becomes an escheat property and given to the state. I would say 90% of the time property is escheated and when home/house property is owned by the state it typically sits abandoned for forever until a relative is found and wants to take it or the state finally auctions it off, which itself is rare but typically means the original housing is demolished sadly. If nobody whos related to this late couple comes forward or outright doesnt want any of the possessions this house will sit abandoned until the state contracts a company to bulldoze the entire thing and sell the land. It will be a while though. Probably another 20+ years.

[@DiegoGene-fh3zp]

I would love to take their possessions and keep it

[@carlabass1926]

IMO they loved the company of one another above the company of others. Nature was one of the main topics of conversation, along with the literary selections they shared. They also loved the finer things like their crystal and china. They loved beauty they found in nature as evidenced by the numerous bird and floral artwork they displayed. I would say they had a common interest in beauty with their preference for growing roses. Their lives probably revolved more around one another, thus the close time between their deaths.
