Hello Once Occupied. Now that I have watched the whole video. I want to say thank you. I bought this house a couple of months ago but I live 9 hrs away. I'm glad to see that the yard is still cleared it was a jungle. When I first saw this house I loved it. We are starting reno in April. We have been putting in for grants to historical home renovation groups. As you can see it's probably going to be a 200k job. I have not been pass the stairs ( too scared). Just wanted to let you know it's restoration is on the way

My grandfather sold Compact vacuums at night to work his way through business school in the early ‘50s. The Compacts were nicknamed “the steel pig.” They made a phenomenal product. He made some of the suggestions that they used to improve future models. He still had the thank you letter from their corporate office.

At 2:24 is a box for a Socrates home computer, sold from 1988 to 1992. At 2:35 is the box for a "LeapPad Plus Writing" game which came out in 2000, the actual Leappad is in the milk crate next to the big fish tank. At 19:51 you have a Panasonic Omnivision VCR, circa 1995. That LeapPad suggests occupation with kids until at least the early 2000's. For those wondering, the third tap in the sinks was for drinking water, likely from a cistern in the attic. The main taps were often not potable in older homes.

Honestly. I went exploring with once occupied once and we came across a beautiful formerly abandoned duplex, but the renovations were *just* starting so it was 99% still in it's abandoned state. First thing they did was tarp up the roof. When we noticed we spent probably 10 minutes just ranting about how no one does that and how so many buildings could be saved if they did lol

It was put on the registry at one point but sadly if people don’t have the money to maintain or repair it then it will just rot. I think it changed hands so many times for low amounts of money because people underestimated the cost to save it. Getting classified as historical makes the repairs much more expensive as they have to meet the historical guidelines. Being on the registry can be a blessing and a curse depending on the situation. And at this point I don’t think anyone’s gonna put hundreds of thousands of dollars into this house in a beautiful but lower property value neighborhood.

Congrats on one of the best and most labor intensive videos I’ve seen in awhile! You really put your heart into getting us a great video on this one climbing all over like you did. How sad that this house is in ruins. What a place it must have been. Sometimes the mutual agreement among you all of not taking anything is a bit of a double edged sword. Firstly, and rightfully so, it isn’t yours to take, which would make it stealing and just plain morally wrong. But then, in houses like this one, nothing is ever gonna make it out and everything will be totally destroyed. Wasted when a history buff somewhere might treasure that piece. But then again, it’s stealing! Conundrum solved only by you guys having made such a righteous decision. Proud of y’all and great video!

I couldn’t agree more. There are so many times when we want to take something in order to save it from rotting away but who don’t want it to become a slippery slope. In cases where the owner is there we often asked to buy things and in many cases they say take whatever you want which is great. In cases where we can find the owners they are often going through hard times or inherited the house I don’t have the means to do anything with it and they appreciate a little bit of cash. In cases where we can’t find an owner but we find things like a photo album We will make an attempt to reach out to a family member to let them know it’s there. I’m really glad you enjoyed the video and we are blessed to be one of the last people to visit this place before it’s gone.

You guys are awesome. I too love abandoned homes and tour through as many as I can. It is really sad that these homes aren’t saved or at least the woodwork and hardware. I’m 63 years young and have been climbing in and out of windows since I was a youngin. I live in GA now but have found abandoned Plantation homes in SC, a group of nuns who left every single item they owned in this home..Rumor had it that there were six elderly nuns living in a gorgeous 1870 home until they died off. I visited the home in 1974. Outside of Boston in a little town called Randolph. I too only leave foot prints. Unfortunately filming these homes was not a popular past time then. friend and I are going in search of one or two on Friday. My methods is to drive until I get lost, that’s when I find something new. To the new owner of this home: Thank you for saving it. Please do a blog as you bring it back to life.

That odd little room upstairs was called a 'dressing room'. That's where ladies would dress and do makeup and hair. We bought a 1905 Queen Anne and have been looking for a corner sink just like that one..wow. Lord those stair spindles look like ours. Thankfully no one touched the wood inside the house and it was well cared for. And we just have to replace some things like chandeliers and sinks, etc. to get it back to 1905. So sad to see that stuff in that house just left to rot. Once water starts getting in, old places are doomed.

3:45 Compact Electras were high end vacuums made from 1946 to 1981. They are still sold today as Tri-Stars. That particular design was made from 1955 to 1978. But the name plate design dates it to the 1970s. It hard to say when the place was last lived in. As you said, all the personal items have been removed and what is left is just hoarder stuff. But some of the items are clearly from the early 2000s. This was a nice explore.😎

I had a chrome bullet shaped Electrolux vacuum that was a work of art! The one you showcased was a goddamn Beauty! You gotta question what's more important to invest in than houses like that. The vacuum and its superior structure and the house are one in the same as symbols of how quality of life has gone Down rather than up. We work twice as hard today for necessities that are designed to fall apart within a year or two, so it is impossible to invest in expensive needs that will last a lifetime. Those are reserved for the few who can afford the Mercedes Benz level of lifestyles. Meanwhile, we appear to have peaked in the mid century as far as functioning aesthetics go. But hey! We're living longer than ever these days! Gotta keep those worker ants alive. Ironically, it's not images like these that represent dystopia, but the row after row of condos that have taken their places.

I watched a video from the year I was born [1972] of black leaders discussing systemic racism in society at that time. This was 6 years after the civil uprise of 1966. What they pointed out was that a car that was built in the 40's ran better at That date than a brand new vehicle available that day, which was designed to be replaced. They went on to discuss that it was a war on class and that race was used to divide and distract. It still is, nothing's changed there either. This isn't about politics, though I live in Minneapolis just blocks from the recent riots and saw first hand the corruption. No, my point is that today in almost 2021 the issues of class and the value of affordable products and homes has only gotten worse, nose-diving in fact. Indeed, this house was at that time built for the elite but the difference is shown mostly in size and detail work. I've seen many of your other explores and I know you understand exactly what I mean about the quality that was standard for basic middle class incomes. (And yes, I am aware that those incomes were also race sensitive. History of man is ugly but we sure built beautiful things across the globe from tribes to royalty back in the day.)

It breaks my heart to see these "elements" go to ruin when you can no longer find them... keep these videos coming. all the best. btw, i'm confused. everything was so old, but then there was the energy saver lightbulb and the plastic shelving in the basement ... and the newish fan in the very top floor... weird...

At the top of the stairs behind the cubby storage there were rolled up poster size papers. I really want to know what they were! Bring someone with you and do a live feed sometime. They can read you the suggestions and questions! That would be so cool!! 😁

The separate faucet was a cold water with refrigerated chilled water that comes out of it. I’ve seem several old houses with that set up. Usually the chill water unit is in the basement

Hi Once Occupied ! I am a very new subscriber. I live in a small town outside of Knoxville in East TN. In my area there is so many abandoned places.including 1 on my property. I am only on Facebook & I love watching these videos but because of health issues I can't go exploring so I enjoy watching others . This area has civil war history 🙂

Those sweepers are from the 50's. My step Mom has one, in fact she still uses it. Someone should ask about removing those old light fixtures and sinks..if at all possible. Especially that corner sink in the butlers pantry.

It looks like the house was abandoned in the 70s or early 80s. The vacuums are from the 40s to 50s I would say. The sonk you found with that funny faucet may have been in a buters pantry, considering it was next to the kitchen. It can be saved. Lots of money and work
