Stunning Once Grand Forgotten 100 year old Barnum Mansion Deep Down South in Arkansas

Historic old Victorian mansion built in 1901. Lots of incredible details and old antiques. Last owner was an elderly woman who passed on with no remaining family members so the house has sat in limbo for nearly 20 years now. Unfortunately it’s reaching a point where if it’s not saved soon the house will be gone. So glad I could document this beautiful hi so old house! Truly stunning old house! Hope you enjoy thanks for watching! One of my all time favorites ever been

[@Jackielocks]

Who else besides myself would like to start a foundation to save this incredibly beautiful home and others that Kappy shows before they are too far gone? I would live in this house in a heartbeat if I could!♥️

[@yeahitsprivate4697]

This always makes me so sad to see these homes just sit and rot away and with all that beautiful furniture and everything else is just left there to rot, makes it even worse. It really does break my heart to see this.

[@Cake41579]

The former owners were together from their childhood up until their deaths. He was a pilot in the Second World War earning a Medal of Honor for his bravery. He wrote to his wife everyday whike she awaited his return from fighting overseas. He finally made it home and they purchased this beautiful home and he ended up becoming the sheriff in that town. It’s sad to think that just not that many years ago there were two happy and healthy souls living in and enjoying that old home together. Lord how proud they must’ve been to have acquired such an astounding home. This is just one story of many that end up being forgotten in time to never be of any importance ever again. Thanks kappy for showing this old home. It’s a masterpiece for sure.

[@Jackielocks]

Thank you! It’s so rare to find out the story behind these homes!

Did you notice the model airplane on the bed upstairs? Probably left there when trying to pack up the place.From your story it wouldn't surprise me if it was the kind of plane he flew.🙂

[@manofreedom]

I grew up in and still live in Arkansas and looked up the medal of honor WW2 recipients. Who was this? I'd bet the Walton family, Rockefellars or the Hunts would be interested in this historic house.

[@lizatrue7543]

I'd have to agree with you, Kappy. Never before in these tours have I wished so badly to have unlimited funds to restore a home. It has to be the most beautiful one you've shared, hands down. Hopefully someone will snatch it up and save it. Thank you for this wonderful tour!

[@clairwaucaush7225]

Of all the houses you've been through, THIS ONE just HAS TO BE SAVED. This is the coolest, best laid out old house. The features are museum quality. Those spandrels were killing me. Still there after a hundred years. The doorknobs, this was a major CUSTOM house in it's day. Keep us posted on it's fate if possible.

[@lisalamp3537]

An OLD Victorian home was always my dream home since I was a little girl

[@oskarsmom7552]

This house is probably my favorite of all time. Imagine children running in and out, fires warming the rooms. Mother making meals while the children played games or sang together in the evenings to the piano. It just gives wonderful vibes and deserves to be restored and filled with a family again. Thank you for this ❤️

[@trudygreer2491]

In this house there should be a cook making meals while Mother plays piano in the Music Room! (and *not* the foyer!) 😊

[@rockybernard2997]

What is left behind is definitely a reflection of that last living soul. She was a warm personality, creative, artistic, elegant, admired Nature and so kept those things near to her in daily life. She may have been reaching out to accompany you on part of your tour. At 16:45, 1 single, very bright orb came towards you, then heading off towards the space above you as it passed. What a glorious, refined and comfortable floorplan, created back in the day when your abode was built to be your castle; back when being 'at home' was a revered part of living, meant to be gracious and comforting, such that visitors could be welcome to call but knew to be delicate and not to be a burden. Today, people clamour to 'get away,' to be let out of their caskets and the shackles they call 'home' to exercise and compare their materialistic accomplishments. It was such a different vibe back in the day, and familiarity with that sort of comportment shall die off with those who recall those most gracious times. TY for sharing, Kappy. My heart is sad at what Human society has become but the memories of those times are heartwarming. God Bless and "Thanks for the memories..."

[@MekareP]

I appreciate your sentiments ❤️ I would like to say though, because it surprised me to learn since we have such a romantic view of the victorians. They were incredibly materialistic and built these houses to show off much the same as we do now. Consumerism was rampant. Hence how you ended up with poison wallpaper. Lots of people referred to these big houses much the same way we think of McMansions now. It's really interesting to see how much things look so different but still behaved the same.

[@rockybernard2997]

@@MekareP No doubt, those who built this structure originally were not without means or consequence. And I understand your perceptions of the Victorian era. You recite the classic textbook description of that age. I was raised by my Victorian Grandmother. During most of her years of employment, she worked as housecleaner for Royalty when they were in their London residence. GrandPa was a London Cabbie. Though her Aunts were seamstresses for the Court, my grandparents were of meager means. When she came to America, she brought with her a single, silver tea strainer. That, aside from her wedding ring, prayer book and dictionary, was the extent of her 'materials' other than what she wore and her housecoat. Even though, it was extremely important to her that proper rituals were followed: teapot from Goodwill had to be warmed before pouring freshly boiling water over loose tea leaves, and I remember particularly, as a child, being cleaned and prettied up, then taken to visit her neighbor in the rented flat below, for a sit down spot of tea, and Mr. Mariola entertained us with his talking parakeet. Always the utmost decorum and proper manners was required, regardless of income. Now, that's not to say there weren't materialistic individuals in the Victorian era. But that IS to point out that sensibilities were different in those times and having meager means wasn't an excuse for boorish or braggartly behaviour. Apparently, you learned your history from books which tend to broadly sweep the masses into particular classes, paying particular attention to those of means (more interesting to be sure). I learned it from a British Victorian. The behaviours of the past is nothing like the social behaviour we are forced to suffer today.

I think this house had the most Kappy "Holy cows" of any house he has featured, and I totally agree. This house was beautiful and it was nice to see a house that had not been vandalized with graffiti like so many of the other ones. And those doorknobs were almost like little works of art. If someone could fix the leaky roof and repair the water damage in that one upstairs bedroom, the rest of the house would be relatively easy to bring back to its original glory. Kappy, you should start a Go Fund Me to help you fix up this beautiful mansion for you and Ruby to live in.

Those doorknobs were proudly made here in the USA. The quality of everything in this mansion was american made. Today we don't see things like this anymore because everything is made in china. The craftsmanship is beyond compare, American made was and still is, always the finest.

[@ttop64]

All that natural woodwork is beautiful and those natural bead board ceilings are outstanding . I guess I will never understand why people paint over woodwork . I can only imagine what that house looked like in its prime . The original owners I'm sure were quite proud when they moved in. It looks like someone was starting to strip the paint off the one fireplace mantel upstairs. Hope this house can be saved. This is by far and away imo one of the best homes you've explored.

[@TotemoGaijin]

The little known 8th deadly sin. Painting wood, lol.

[@Gehrtm]

It’s interesting, how the fire places are all different and unique. The fireplace at the top of the first set of steps is made out of a different word than the steps, stair rail, and floor. The Frigidaire icebox was a cool find! I loved the door handles, pocket doors, and I found the windows, very unique how they had ledges that came out into the room and they all had shutters at one point. A master craftsman did the woodwork on this house. What wonderful detail in each room! Such a shame it is rotting away.

What a beautiful place! I love Victorian homes they are my favorite. So sad nobody kept this beautiful home up. Thank you Kappy!!

[@brusselsprout5851]

Man, if I had the dough I’d drop it into that house in a heartbeat. Everything is from around 1890 construction to 1920 designs and contents up to the 1980s. To have the $ to grab it up and bring it to date without altering its originality would be a blast and a half. It’s a heartbreaker for sure. Thanks for sharing, Kappy.

Oh wow, this beautiful and elegant old gal could and should be saved! Every detail in this house is stunning from the woodwork to the doorknobs. Just selling part of the contents (the old glassware, home decor, and vintage clothing scattered everywhere are worth more than you would think) would raise enough to get started. I would guess the state owns it at this point if she left no heirs? I'm sure the local community would benefit from the sale of this property. Maybe one of the historic renovation channels will see it and give it a shot, restoring it wouldn't be that hard and would make great content. I'll watch this episode again and again, it's now my favorite house you've shown. You set a lovely tone for my Saturday, thank you so much Kappy!
