I used to live around the corner from that house and still pass it all the time. I have watched it decay and have always wondered what the inside of the house looked like. I hope that the house will be preserved as most of the houses like it in Bergen County and New Jersey are usually torn down. Houses like that are an important part of our History that are slowly disappearing. Hopefully people like you bring attention to them and the need to preserve them.

[@ooees]

bro this fuckin youtuber basically doxed the location near border and you just gave county. im sure itll be really preserved. 🙄

[@StringerMedia]

You will see later in the video we were being watched. So apologies if we rushed the video a bit. I hope you enjoyed and can understand!

[@lukedarsey4134]

Well ..... Your fucking truss passing. Wtf do you expect.?

[@Plzunitewtruth2]

I would love to restore

[@SyntheticRemedy]

Keep up the good work! Been binge watching alll your videos lol.

[@Judy.LoveandLightAlways]

@6:50 is a tube tester for old black and white TV's. My dad used to fix TV's in the '50's and I recognize it.

[@tims_always_fishing7117]

That's awesome

[@FartyMcNuggets]

👍🏻- I’ve got a boxes of them. I’m always testing tubes for old ham radios & cb amps. - 👍🏻

[@rekkinregen]

I hope new generations will cherish old homes and antiques. They are so much worth for history, emotionally, etc.. more important than liveless, soulless modern architecture , glass and plasterboard....................................... this has a soul.

[@ironwolf4273]

I'm 20, and I've started collecting antiques. Mostly bottles and coins now, but I want to expand my collection when I have the space. I intend to keep everything from my grandparents if I'm able, they have some cool stuff that I need to make sure gets to me or someone that'll appreciate it. Already rescued my mom's Atari 2600 from my cousin who was going to mod it.

[@carlashepherd9362]

So sad to see these beautiful old homes left abandoned! Cool video bro! ❤️🤘👍

[@michelleford7392]

I love your enthusiasm for what you see!❤

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

If I inherited this house 😁, I would refurbished, repairs,updo, the vintage niceness back to good days.❤😂 Making it a home ❤

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

I love that vintage chair, and other vintage stuff.

[@michelewatts5692]

So very awesome & it makes me happy to see you young men respecting the antiques & the work that goes into them

[@robertthomas3364]

That house is typical of old Dutch homes, I used to live in Jersey and many places have Dutch names. New Jersey is filled with old places. A real wonder that this hasn't been burned down or vandalized.

[@dankollectz9456]

You guys walked past an item worth about $15,000 and you and the scabs robbing the joint didn't even see it. Btw love the video don't see places like this anymore

[@mikhailvershinin2292]

I saw it too 😂

[@mikhailvershinin2292]

Starts with letter c and ends with n

[@xMcLarryTheLobsterx]

@@mikhailvershinin2292what is it??

[@HighSierraDawn]

Oh my gosh! The spool cabinet! All of those antiques left in an open garage. They must live in a very safe neighborhood.

[@Maya47222]

I like how respectful you guys are. You're just so fascinated and you don't touch everything or destroy anything and that's very nice.

[@originaloldfashionedtarot]

upstairs there's a phone connected to the wall BUT it has no dial! Guess how you made calls? The operator would automatically say 'Operator' and you'd tell her what number to call. That phone is about 70 yrs old.

[@TheLordOfNothing]

Yep. If you somehow hooked that phone up to today's systems (probably wouldn't even work considering phones back then were directly wired into your wall, not just plugged in) you'd be stuck on a dial tone with no way to call.

[@joseph78e4n6]

🌟 Tough Find .... their is nostalgic and very valuable items .. steel case file cabinets nice paintings .. this world 🌎 is down hill now .. great business lost ...

[@HighSierraDawn]

Love all of the built in's in the home. The hearth with the vintage Chambers stove! It's a shame to let such a beautiful place sit and decay to be lost forever.

[@ericthiel4053]

Sad, id be willing to buy quite a bit of the stuff in there. Been looking for some of it. I hope the family decides to grab some of it before its too late. Nice video!!

[@spectre5544]

I live around the corner of this house, now I know the story finally. Pretty cool.

[@rekkinregen]

Homeowner(s) when you watch this. In jesus name. restore it, sell it. it has to be saved..... it has to be restored.

[@sardonic_smile_8752]

Interesting find. Such a captivating and succinct backstory of the previous owners. Sounds like he did so much research and show-prep for this.

[@accountabilityaudits]

The arched brick recess in the basement was a coal chute for the coal fired boilers and the cooking in the original house prior to more modern retrofits as time went on.

[@Chris.groucott]

Yo some of that shit is worth £ £ £ !!!! Absolutely crazy that people leave shit like this behind!!!! Would be so interesting to know the entire story of these people!!?? Awesome video yet again stringer!!!!! 👏 👍 👍 👍 Thanks so much, really enjoy your content bro 🙏 🙌 👍 👏 🇬🇧 🇬🇧 🇬🇧

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

Back then,.. people put heart ❤️ in constructing things by hand, like Jesus 🙏🏾as, today it's Mass production,no heart .just down a conveyor belt. People today just want wants trendy then it falls apart in a short time. Back then,they made things to last forever.😢

[@ironwolf4273]

My grandparents have and use stuff that their parents and grandparents had. I hope to be able to continue that. Unfortunately, I've got a lot of family that doesn't appreciate this stuff, but will want their share to sell it

[@YasaiDizon]

amazing vid as always bro keep it up , amazing exploration

[@johnfisher9816]

Excellent documentary!! That was one of the coolest places that you guys have done. Truly a museum waiting to be put together. Fascinating in all respects. Keep up the excellent work, John (p.s. your Instagram account has vanished).

YESSS I loved these and wanna see sm more

[@kb94596]

Noice! glad you can appreciate the craftsmanship.

[@MaddieNTurbo]

Thank you for the video! I love the tables with the marble tops, they are nice!! Very sad to see all that nice wood furniture just wasting away. Why didn't the county deem it historical and get it restored for tours? Perfect busy location. Nice to see the neighbors are looking out for the old place.

[@Madness_OG]

NJ FOR LIFE I Wish I Can Do These Videos

[@juliegogo2941]

Make a bid on it.. Check taxes too. Thanks

[@sidlazzar1002]

Sad to see that jeep go to waste too!

[@corneliusva]

Interesting video and amazing that you found this house and it's not been tagged or trashed

[@amo6959]

It was a reel to reel not a record player

[@mr.singhsgarbagetrucks7916]

very cool i have bin exploring abandon places sins 9 years old

[@kimmcgill1767]

I think you could have found a lot of info just by reading a few files in the cabinets.

[@m1t2a1]

The one at 3:22 is a clavichord.

[@TheLordOfNothing]

It's always interesting to me how messy and disheveled everything is in abandoned homes. Vandals and looters obviously would cause a ruckus but surely that can't be the same thing for every abandoned home.

[@BustedNut-]

Man, lots of old American history rite there in that house. I hope somebody saves the house and all that old stuff.

[@TheLordOfNothing]

I presume the county owns it now. When someone doesn't pay their taxes for a certain amount of time, the county seizes it and holds an auction for it.

[@gorytarrafa]

2:25 Yes, "pipes", that's exactly what it is.

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

That's so sad 😢

[@jenniferschneider6769]

You definitely need to say something they need to save that stuff that's in that house and in that shed and the garage you need to say something

[@elizabethengquist4185]

Someone probably died and left that stuff. Beautiful antiques.

[@elizabethengquist4185]

The arch in the basement may have been for wine storage or root celler.

[@grievingsage1899]

Thats a lot of vintage. 😂. Anyway, thanks and be careful out there.

[@Mickey-lh7jb]

I bet that painting worth alot of money

[@mikeyncali]

Bet those clocks are worth a ton of money

[@jaydunstan1618]

How much were you able to nick?

[@m1t2a1]

I think that piano isn't. 10:15 Looks like a clavichord.

[@ShettikkaWoods-jl8iq]

Perhaps rent out rooms to the older generation.❤

[@user-kt8nl4op6s]

cool😂

[@Chris.groucott]

If ever you make it to the uk 🇬🇧 bro, link up with me... I can show you equally interesting shit this side of the pond like! I live in Shropshire England 🇬🇧 we have some really really old haunted abandoned places full of history 👍 👍 👍 loads of "secret" tunnels ect,

[@elizabethengquist4185]

That garage used to be a little house apparently.

[@evanmcmahan355]

There is so much money in there

[@karenmegert5872]

I always wonder how the homes still have cobtents and people havent ransacked the place

[@ashog1426]

Some people are still worthy 😊

[@StringerMedia]

Me too. I am happy it's still intact

[@tfranchi]

Call the towns/county historical society. It’s registered? They could save so much?

[@kidsstudynow6901]

Trespassing.....this is a criminal offense.

Stove 30's or 40's

[@jenniferschneider6769]

You guys really need to talk to somebody about that house you just went through. Because people are going to destroy those pianos and everything else you need to report that house you need to have somebody go in there and clean that s*** up and get rid of the important ship you know what . Because people are going to destroy those pianos and everything else you need to report that house . It's up to you guys how about how save you need to say something to somebody I'm serious

[@j.c.isking2165]

It is pretty much impossible to KNOW all the countless locations of all these abandoned places as you guys just so happen to, so I have to ask.... what level or " degree " of freemasonry are you?

[@StringerMedia]

33rd degree

[@lukedarsey4134]

Blows my mind you guys dont consider yourselves truss passing. Curious lilttle Karens with the right to the property in their 👀

[@rekkinregen]

Why are people such a barbarians . alot of people need a home ........ why don't they rent it ? renovate it? .......... what is the matter with governments/ Homeowners should be obligated to live in, renovate or sell their houses by law worldwide
