I loved seeing your house. I’m a tremendous lover of Victorian architecture. Really anything made before the 50’s. Clothing, too! Thank you for the tour and btw: I like that wallpaper, too. 😉

[@mariafelix9670]

Wow. You are so fortunate to have the opportunity to live in such a wonderful old home on a beautiful piece of land. Enjoy, enjoy and enjoy your new home.

Thank you so much!

I cannot believe someone painted that beautiful trim white

[@desertpotter1003]

Thanks for the tour, I love seeing the old homes. Such a cool house and so big, I wouldn’t know what to do with so many rooms.

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thanks for watching!

[@icemancometh8679]

The real steep stairs were servant stairs. The main rooms to the side as you come to the front door were parlors I think. Might be a sistern somewhere. Such a well made solid house.

Oh my gosh! Thank you for giving a tour of your beautiful Victorian home. I am a huge fan of older homes and the craftsmanship put into them. I love the wood but was a little disappointed that someone painted over the design on the wood framing. The wood flooring was sooo pretty! I also love brick. It’s truly an amazing home with beautiful scenery too.

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you so much! And thanks for watching! I just love old homes too

[@TheresaDurrani]

You're so sweet to show us your home. I have totally liked Victorian homes AND all of Victoriana for the past 40 years. What a miracle that you were able to find such a gem of a home. It's lovely & I can tell you're happy there.❤❤❤

The floral wallpaper is beautiful!

[@carolynmiller9312]

Beautiful home. Room for everything!

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you!

[@heatherhoffman9719]

i believe that little room upstairs in the back is the trunk room where they stored steamer trunks when not in use for traveling. Very cool!

[@maryj5245]

Thank you for the tour of your beautiful homes! I love to see what the homes were made like. I appreciate you sharing your home. There were so many rooms and great property too.

[@lisaparker3751]

Great video. I love your home you showed it well! Love Old homes built so much better, craftsmanship really shows. Thank you for the tour!

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you! Appreciate you taking the time to watch! 😊

[@helen1962]

Gorgeous home!

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you! 😊

[@shawnmeyer2788]

That small room upstairs by the stairs to the attic is called a trunk room. Travel back then was a big deal. Clothing was packed in trunks and put on trains. They needed a space to store the trunks. Beautiful home.

I had no idea, but that mashes sense! Thanks for the info!

I had no idea, but that makes sense. Thanks for the info!

You are living my dream! Your house is so perfect. I love everything except the bats😂. Glad you got them under control. You really know how to make a great video. I was glued to it the whole time.

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you so much for the nice comment! Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching 💗

[@tracymarshall8273]

What a gorgeous home in an ideal location! It’s been so well loved too! I really love all the wallpaper, very nostalgic and pretty colours. Have you ever had any paranormal experiences there? Thanks for sharing your home, really fun! I used to homeschool too, your house is perfect! Love the basement area to make projects and sewing area! ❤

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you for watching! No paranormal experiences. I was just creeped out but all the creeky pipe sounds when we first moved it. 😄

[@Guitar28000]

What a cool house you have! My wife and I have been working on ours and documenting some of the progress with the occasional upload for the last three years, an 1888 Gothic/eclectic Victorian that by comparison is much smaller and simpler, with far less original detail intact than yours. The work really never ends, but the charm of all the details and having a chance to live in a piece of unique history and see it stay relevant/come back from being neglected is well worth it. Each level of your house got more and more interesting. I like the connected rooms on the second floor, with the servant staircase access. The attic and tower rooms are a big draw for me, as well as the basement. Something about the potential of all of that spare square footage just makes it feel like you can do anything from home. If I ever "finish" my house, if one like this comes available I might be tempted to move across the country... Thanks for the tour!

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you so much for watching the full house tour! I hope you are enjoying living in your Victorian home. We've got to do all we can to keep these works of history around for many years to come!

[@JOEYDEEZ369]

Beautiful… I just adore old houses.. the more haunted the better hahahah.. old homes were made stronger and better than those stupid new builds… yep… you know good when you see it… lucky you ma’am and well done !! Cheers & Ciao ;)’

Omggg I can't believe they painted all the trim

[@Religious_man]

Excellent

[@jeanbaker2087]

I really enjoyed seeing your home. I don't normally like wallpaper, but I thought it was very attractive in your home. The house I grew up in had the rooms connecting like yours. I didn't really like ours either. We used the dining room as a 2nd bedroom because we had a large eat-in kitchen.

[@susanwilliams1575]

My home was built the same year, but unfortunately not kept up throughout the years. 1969, It was brought back to an idea of the original. They did well. Yes, your small steep stairs were for the help. The smell room on the second floor was for the help who would have lived there. In 1869, middle class people did not own homes like this. Thank you, it’s beautiful.

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Oh that's great that you get to experience living in one of these old homes too! I hope there are still some original details/features in the house! It's so sad when people take then out to modernize.. Thank you for watching!

[@sandysimmer1279]

The unpainted trim upstairs is gorgeous!

Any ghosts? Just had your video pop up on my feed and subscribed. My kind of folks :)

No ghosts! All good vibes inside the house 😊 Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! Glad you found us:)

I have the exact same mirror as the one you have in the parlor room over the sofa ❤

Really? Is your frame plastic? Because mine is, but I still think it looks nice 😊

I love your home! It’s beautiful. Did it come with a dumb waiter pulley system?

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

No dumb waiter in this house. That would be cool though!

[@gijanetexas5770]

The plaid - is that carpet or linoleum?

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

It's carpet! Don't ask me why.. lol 😄

Do you still heat with coal? Or do you use a boiler ?

Cost to build?

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

I have no idea how much it cost to build the house. It was built in 1889.

[@TB-107-Franklin-Omer-MI]

Why do you have a sceleton in the house?

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

We love to decorate for Halloween, and it's just easier to keep him built than take it apart ecru year. Plus the kids that come over like him 😄

[@mikaelb.2070]

Beautiful house, but it's not gothic style, it's more italianate.

[@thestrangeonesonyoutube]

Thank you!

[@victorlopez2143]

Love the house BUT - they should have never painted the wood trim or the doors..Should have kept it as is...
