This beautiful old house was built by a union soldier veteran of the American civil war. He served in multiple large battles like Gettysburg and Antietam. The house was built in the late 1800’s around 1870 to 1880. Sadly this house is set to be torn down for a new shopping center. Glad to have documented this historic old house on film and video. Thank you for watching! Hope you enjoy!

Once upon a time... somebody had big dreams about restoring this spacious home to its former glory! Sadly it looks like reality took over, and they realized what a big task they had taken on. SO many antiques, some look valuable/irreplaceable like the fireplace mantles with intact mirrors, and the huge mirror in the wooden "framing" A local historian may be able to save some of those antiques, I also spotted a like new telescope laying on the floor near a window. Thanks Ruby and Kappy, see you next time!

That newspaper from the 2008 era says ALOT about what might have happened here. A lot of folks were investing in and renovating and flipping homes around that time because there were big profits to be made. But once the housing bubble burst in 2008.... A lot of investors and house flippers found themselves upside down in the market with houses that they would never be able to recoup the funds that they had put into them. So a lot of projects were just abandoned.🥺 It's a real shame...... Because those of us who would have loved and cherished a house like this and would have put in the effort and money to fix them up no matter how much the cost weren't able to buy them at that time because the house flippers were inflating the prices so high that none of us could afford to get one anyway. 🤦‍♀️ And since it was about profits for them and not about love for an old house..... They just walked away and left them abandoned with no love lost.🥺

I believe this is the first time I have seen anyone begin gutting a house and leave the things they tore out in piles on the first floor. Lathe, beams, rolls of old carpet, very odd way to go about renovations. Very sad it didn't get as far as the restoration portion of the plans. I'm sure the original structure was beautiful and could have been remodeled into a very nice home. And that attic was crazy big. I wish this place had gotten its second chance. Thanks, Kappy

This is for those dreamers/commentators who say: Oh my! What a beauty! What a shame! I would love to save this gem. Well, these ''gems" can cost you more than a million dollars to bring them back to life, plus as far as charm, each era has its own style, if I had the money to build a beauty, I for sure will not go around looking for an old style house to replicate. No one with the money is doing that. Out with the old, and in with the new. Thank you for the tour.

OMG OMG OMG!!!! I had that Suzy Homemaker stove as a little girl!!!! I actually learned to bake in it. I would pull it into the kitchen when my mom was baking and she would always give me a little bit of whatever she was making and she would tech me how to make it in that oven. It took a 100 watt bulb and the stove burners would glow when it was plugged in. I'm actually quite a good cook/baker now, if I say so myself. I owe it all to Suzy and my Mom! That toy is worth alot of money now. I pray someone goes in there and rescues the furniture. It breaks my heart to think of the contents of that house just rotting away. Somebody had big plans for it. But the rule of thumb of restorations is to start with the foundation and roof before you tear anything out.

That is one cool and useful attic. Another floor of living space. I know, I restored a house in MUCH worse shape than this. It had major fire damage and had been built in 1874. Over 3,500 square feet and it's still a great house to this day!

All I could picture in my mind was you standing on top of all that piled wood, the floor collapsing, and you would still be on the same level because of being on top of that wood. Weird thought, I know🤷🏻‍♀️😬I love the second floor landing. Huge. That attic. I wonder if it was used at one time or the couple doorways were put in for future use. Some of that furniture & that massive mirror-oh I hope it can be saved! Do you think that room you were in last was the kitchen? I don’t remember seeing anything resembling a kitchen. I love seeing “original “ things that are still there.( or extremely old) like the sink in that bedroom, the wallpaper in the closet. Things like that really gives you a scrapbook or photo album of the homes life. Of course the fireplaces & banister/staircase too. Thank again for a wonder step back in time Kappy. Stay safe!

Hello Kappy and all you explorers! From the exterior, this appears to be a very interesting house, with all its angles and gables. I can hardly wait to see what's inside! The people who built this house really cared about the details of its construction and decoration. The millwork surrounding the doors and windows, as well as the fireplace surround and the pocket doors, is very well executed. No shortcuts were taken in this house! That doorknob and its faceplate look almost like they did when they were installed. I'll bet they were polished until they shined! I wonder if that green stone on the mantel is marble or maybe soapstone. Whatever it is, I hope it's preserved or salvaged. It's much too lovely to smash to bits! Oh, the staircase is just beautiful and it's in great condition! This whole house has a proud bearing befitting a hero of that terrible, needless War. How proud he must have been of the home he built. I wonder if he had a family. I should think he did, to build a house so large and comfortable as this one must have been. Kappy, you mentioned in the description that this house is going to be torn down. Obviously, someone at least attempted to save it once, judging from the sheetrock and the mud on the walls and the piles of boards they took down. Perhaps they planned to move walls as was done in the large room at the end of the house. They must have given up on what they felt was a monumental task or maybe something was discovered to change their minds. Kappy, the microwave book you discovered was published in the early to mid seventies. My Mom had an Amana Radarange and that same cookbook came with the appliance. Now it seems the house is about to be emptied of everything useful. That would explain the piles of boards and furniture and the walls being stripped. It's obvious that the interior demolition has already begun, especially upstairs. The rooms up there are good-sized, but what awful water damage has occurred in that one room! That black mold may have rendered this house uninhabitable. Maybe that's why the homeowner gave up his attempts at renovation. What an interesting closure on that closet! I don't believe we've seen one like it before. Hmmm. I've seen other houses of this period which were renovated to become boarding houses. They all had sinks in the bedrooms like this one. Apparently, water closets were communal, but sinks allowed boarders to bathe in private. Ah, the boxes of household goods are sad, somehow, as the small goods of the long gone homeowners are nothing but junk now, bound for some secondhand store or, worse, for the county landfill. It's difficult to see, for their sakes. That fireplace surround is, I believe, late Victorian, like the green one downstairs. They are very similar, if not identical. This must be the bedroom belonging to the owner, the veteran of so many battles, who rested his head in this room. Well, what do you know? A door knocker on a bathroom door! This must have been a boarding house, as the assortment of objects in the last room attest. The door knocker helped to ensure privacy when the bathroom was in use, I suppose. You're right, Kappy. This is a large bathroom. They must have given up a corner bedroom to provide a bathroom. Perhaps that was an enticement to potential boarders. We can only hope that the finer parts of the millwork in this lovely old home will be saved for future use and that the beautiful antique furniture will grace someone else's homes. This was once a grand home, as the large mirrored mantel in the last room shows us. Sadly, though, this house is almost beyond saving. That black mold may be the death blow for this whole building. It attests to a badly failed roof system and that would take many thousands to repair. Considering the state of the remainder of the building, it may not be profitable. Your video may well be the last evidence of this lovely house's existence, Kappy. It does provide enough visual evidence to allow us to imagine what this mansion looked like a hundred years ago. It must have been very beautiful. Thank you very much for this explore, intrepid explorer. Though there have been many changes and much damage to this building, it stands proudly, wounded but still sound, much like the veteran her walls sheltered. I hope that, should you pass this way again, you will show us that this grand beauty has been saved, her terrible wounds healed and that she is made beautiful once more. Take good care of yourself and drive safely. Happy trails, my friend.

On the second floor, where the water damaged area is i can actually see an outline of an older woman, close to the corner and about four feet up. This place looks as if someone had intentions of remodeling and making this awesome place, but time, money, or maybe even both came in between their doing so.

This was one of the most beautiful with that center sqaure stairwell. Do you ever feel ghosts around on your explorations? This house struck me as one that would harbor few.

@@urbanexploringwithkappy1773 Thanks for the opportunity 💜 I'm not young enough to brave those type of structures anymore, but LOVE old craftsmanship and architecture/design. This house definitely had a lighter feeling, though I definitely felt disembodied energy (positive). There have been others you've explored which had lots of sadness/loss energy present. Thank you for your respect of the property and documentation of what may soon be unavailable for the younger generations to see.

What an amazing house! Nit only was it huge with three floors, but the architecture was spectacular. The possibilities for the old place would be endless if it could be saved. If only walls could talk and tell of the memories that were made in that house. Keep up the awesome work. Until next time, take care and God bless.

I'm just the opposite on your thoughts of which floor was in better or worse shape....I thought the lower floor was in much worse shape than the two upper ones. So much beautiful antique furniture in there that not unsalvageable yet. Thanks for the video... I thought it was the best one that you've shown us in awhile.

I hope somebody will at least save the architectural details. There was a company from AL they came and stripped a couple of houses in Little Rock that were torn down by a private school. They were beautiful houses, still in good shape; one on the National Register of Historic Places. Years later, there is still nothing there!

I have to stop here for now, it makes me too sad. I had 2 of these houses and had to give them up for different reasons. The first was completely restored. We were just the second owners of the first. All original wood trim, pocket doors, beautiful stained glass. Nothing like living in a house like it.

Whoever it was that owned this house was at the process of restoring this house. The sagging floors is caused by moisture content in the basement. My house is built in 1860 and it too is being restored. I would love to have the trim in that house.
