Incredible 200 year old Classic Abandoned Southern Plantation House in Georgia

[@ttop64]

Nice to see a house that hasn't been ravaged by vandals or falling in on its self

[@urbanexploringwithkappy1773]

Have some really neat ones on the way! Thank you for watching!! :)

The metal roof is what makes the difference.

Oh; how I wish someone would save this beauty. Thank you Kappy. You never let us down. You made this old lady happy on this dreary Saturday.

[@malindahenke5724]

I love this! I can see myself fixing up and decorating this one! That little sink on the back porch! And in the bedroom. It would have to stay just for cuteness! Nice house. It needs to be a home again.

[@tammybaker6635]

My Granny had a sink on the back porch. When it was mealtime, she'd holler outside to come in and 'warsh' up, that it was time to eat. That's where we'd wash up before coming in the house to eat. I look back now, and figure that was better than us all trying to get in the bathroom and trashing it! 😊

[@urbanexploringwithkappy1773]

Well said!! Yeah that sink was certainly a unique feature! Wish I could go back in time and ask the people there reasoning! Thank you very much for watching!! :)

[@elihubildad6677]

Must be near a freeway or something because you can hear lots of traffic passing this house. The noise of the traffic may be one of the reasons why it’s abandoned.

[@patkilmurray4702]

Really liked this house, looks massive downstairs but with only two bedrooms upstairs, good to see it was just how they left it with no vandalism, loved the front porch too.

[@Whyme-w7j]

The room with the sink in the corner on the ground floor must have been another bedroom. There's no way a house that size would have had just two bedrooms.

[@melissaboggs5176]

Such a beauty Kappy! In some rooms, it almost looks like it’s still livable. The crutches in the corner has a sad feeling about them. I love the fireplace and the big front porch is calling my name! Lol! Me and those porches! lol! Thanks you Kappy for your amazing work! You’re the best! Stay safe. 😊

[@urbanexploringwithkappy1773]

I’m with you on the porch! Loved it!! Thank you very much for the kind words and watching!! :)

[@SRay-or3nc]

I couldn't help but notice when you showed the old light bulb hanging from the ceiling that there was an adapter so you could also use the ceiling outlet for electric appliances and such. That was very common in the house I grew up in and of course my neighbor's houses. It was also a sign that you couldn't afford to have more electric run inside the rooms. So the adapter was a quick fix. I can remember seeing ironing boards under the lights and the irons plugged into the adapter.

[@urbanexploringwithkappy1773]

Great eye!! That’s a good point! Good observation!! Thank ya very much for watching!! :)

[@MaxZomboni]

My understanding is that those adopters were popular in the early 1900s. Reason being in the early days, electric companies offered two rates. One low rate for electric lighting and a much higher rate for electric appliances. That rate structure went out the window when people started buying the adopters so they could use their appliances at the lower rate. That and as the utility companies increased their generating capacity, they didn't care what people used the electricity for. At that point they wanted their customers to use as much electricity as possible.

[@loisfolk5492]

Same here. Old was just used the way it was. No problem. We were happy to have it.

[@virginiamichel3112]

That is 1 way weird layout! The fact that it has 2 front doors makes me wonder If it wasn't made into a duplex Thanks Kappy.

[@celticseeker2431]

Both my grandparents had homes built around 1880s with two front doors. One was in the Midwest the other in extreme SW Missouri (Ozarks). Same layout as the first floor of this home. Living room & kitchen on left side & bedrooms on the right. No hallway. The bedrooms were all connected. Must have been common back in 1800s.

[@tammybaker6635]

You found a GEM with this one. I was surprised that there wasn't more furniture ect inside. The 2 pieces of furniture together looked like an old radio, and the one in front is called a credenza. I have one almost the same as this one. They would have it sitting in the dining room with their China on it for fancy holidays ect. That bathroom downstairs looked like my tiny little bathroom. Just put a tub on the far side and that's how big mine is. My Mr, when we moved here said it was the perfect set up for someone with the flu. 😮 It's the truth too! 😊 Keep them coming Mr Kappy! I love watching! Thanks for taking me along Mr Kappy! 😊

The foundation must still be in tact mostly. The roofing is a beautiful red but could use a good red metal roof. Love the bigness of all of it. Would strip the paint off the trim, crown molding,the doors, and the wainscoting, and hopefully see a medium brown wood through out, put some new plumbing but keeping the old style, new electric,central heating and air conditioning through out. Deck it with redone antique chandeliers, and wall lights, Weather trim all over, beautiful area rugs and some worthy beautiful draperies, and beautiful antique furniture.for starters. The kitchen made farm style,antique cupboards. Nice big fridge and a grand old upright rinkytink piano, and harp and other instruments. And a large pet room that has an adjacent pet pen enclosure,Why not have it all?! Beautiful place, and with redone fire places.Are we ready? Thanks Kappy for the stroll into this beautiful old house👍🦇🕸🕷🦗🦟🐿🐭Put them in an out building Ha! And add a few pets.❤

The one upstairs would have replaced a wash stand, but the one in the living room was quite odd. Did the little added bathroom not have room for a sink, maybe?

The lightening rods on top of the house are rare-too bad they aren’t taken down. What a cool house. Well built and solid. That could be renovated and lived in I bet.

[@jefflawrentz1624]

This is a wonderful example of country federal architecture. The exterior reminds me a lot of Summit Plantation house in South Carolina. What a gem! I hope it is acquired by someone who will give it the attention it deserves. Thank you, Kappy !

[@barryhouchin5347]

Gorgeous. The high ceilings & parlor doors take me back to a house in southern Alabama where I spent many good years as a kid. The view from the front with the big trees is awesome, and man, if that front sidewalk could speak. Great job as always Kappy.

I love seeing homes that are 200 years and still standing which would probably attribute to the metal roof. A lot of neat features that you just don’t see in cookie cutter houses. Thank you for sharing Kappy 😊✌️

This is such a great house and it was very enjoyable to watch you go through it. I think the red tags on the furniture could mean that there was an auction here at one time. They must have sold off the antiques and such.😍😍😍

Would have been nice for the hot summer nights to sleep out there with no bugs…. I truly wish someone would save it…. I know it takes alot of money and work but dang it looks like it could be saved! Was that an outdoor kitchen to the side? I couldn’t tell if it was attached or not…. The house was a bit of a maze on the first floor…. Great exploring as usual Kappy!!! Thank you 😊

[@anniscrawford4210]

Have you noticed in your explorations that the houses with metal roofs have less water damage? Seems like that was a good plan for vintage homes. Another thing I’ve noticed is how close so many abandoned houses are to highways that probably weren’t present when the home was built. Wonder how much that had to do with the houses being abandoned. I really loved this house.

[@urbanexploringwithkappy1773]

So true!! Those metal roofs really do last the longest!! I’ve heard can get over 50 years from a good well put on metal roof! I’d do that or a slate roof if I was rich lol! Thanks for watching!! :)

[@japlangston3472]

Loved this house! Looks like it was used as a rooming house hence the sinks in those rooms other than the kitchen or bath. I can imagine the landlady having a sing-along at the piano in the parlor, or maybe she gave piano lessons to neighborhood children. It's fun to speculate what went on inside the beautiful old places. Thanks, Kappy.

[@vickithornley5056]

Wonder why there were sinks by the fireplaces? I would love to explore, but, there could be something or someone in there hiding! Especially since the front door was not closed. But, such cool houses. Love to hear their history. 🌻

[@litaheffley6990]

Cool old place

[@JonnyTheLeprechaun]

[@l.l.2463]

Very cool! The sinks in the bedrooms remind me of some of the explores I've seen in from Europe -- or at least in the Uk. It seemed to be a very common feature in country homes and It makes sense. I assume these replaced the old-fashioned washstands with the bowl and pitcher sets that we see in antique stores. I have not seen this so much in American urban exploring channels. LOL . But, then, Kappy is pretty much the only American channel I watch with any kind of regularity. And that is a high compliment to you Kappy! :)

Love this one! From the avocado green shag carpet, to the old pencil sharpener on the closed-in original outdoor deck wall, to the 1971 calendar! Lots of fun. Did you check to see if there was a signature on that large painting? That looked like it could be an Antiques Roadshow find! 😁

That ‘large painting’ is a print, not an original and also not very old.

I noticed that the house appears to have a metal roof. That’s what has saved it so far. The metal roof prevented water from getting in and rotting everything.
