Can You Guess When This Home Was Built? | This House Tours

[@lmgtulsa]

By the look of the kitchen, the condition of the exterior and landscape, I would say early 2000’s. It’s not an older home. 20 or 25 years at most. It’s a beautiful home.

[@ThisHouse]

Spot on!

[@somerandomcommenter5823]

I would have guessed even younger since there isn't a mature tree in the yard (from the drone point of view ). Nice home though.

[@salavalos]

Beautiful home tour. Whoever purchases this house will be very fortunate to have such attention to workmanship and detail in a modern build. Thank you!

[@superdougie10]

Thank goodness there is color in many rooms. If this were in Los Angeles the entire home would be painted white inside....

[@titankooyman3638]

What a wild home! It's like 1899 and 1999 mixed together. I helped my uncle's neighbor move a few years ago out of a large cookie cutter house in a modern subdivision. I was shocked when I saw how much intricate wood work and molding was done in every room! I found out later that the man was a wood worker and had taken many years to turn the inside of the house into an elaborate showcase of his abilities.

[@beeline22]

It looks like late 1990s /early 2000s based on the outdoor surrounding areas of the home.Thank you for sharing this beautiful home.

[@LA_Mom_2023]

For a person who avoids basements at all cost, I'm in love with this one - Outstanding!

[@anncrow3340]

Just by the layout of the ground floor, you can tell it was built in the last 20 years, a super McMansion lol

[@dianacanales2526]

The modern floor-plan and lack of mature trees on the property were clues early in the video that this was not a vintage home. Very nicely detailed molding throughout and several exquisite chandeliers. Favorite chandelier was in the kitchen, which I thought looked a little out of place. So much white and just over-the-top, fancy design, yet obviously modern, gave off a cold and pretentious feel. Favorite rooms were the library and first bonus room upstairs at the end of the balcony. I loved the warmth and rich wood tones in the library and the coziness of that first bonus room. Overall, a very luxurious and grandiose structure. As always, Ken, you did a great job of highlighting the most unique details. I was not all that surprised at the actual age of the place. It really is eye-candy for those who appreciate luxe design. Thank-you for this tour. Keep up your great work!

[@axnyslie]

Wow that is some of the most amazing millwork I have seen. Beautiful craftsmanship. I initially thought Federal architecture from the external view so I was surprised by how new the house really is.

[@ThisHouse]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@carolgoering6585]

Craftsmanship? All that trim came from a mill. If you look closely there were gaps in the seams. If I could see them watching this video, you know they look worse in person. The installers were not the best the builder could find.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

I’m guessing 5-10 years old. ETA: Just changed my guess to closer to 20 based on decor, thermostat and a couple of other items. Back after finishing the video. As someone who worked in mortgage lending at that time and saw a lot of home plans, appraisal pictures, material lists, etc, I started to recognize the time frame. That, and having a couple of friends lucky enough to be in a position to build homes of this caliber and watching them make choices on the interior finishes helped me recognize it. This was a fun one!

[@ThisHouse]

The little details gave it away, good eye!

[@estebann333]

it reminds me a lot of houses in 90s kids movies

[@estebann333]

well… 😳

[@MrMrremmington]

Well somebody would be very happy to live there. The kitchen is definitely grand. To each his own when you spend your money.

[@margaretorden7568]

Thank you for the tour Ken. It is rather OTT for my taste but I do like some of the bedrooms and there does seem to have been no expense spared!

[@ThisHouse]

My pleasure! Thanks for watching! -Ken

[@tashasmith6179]

Same here.

[@twistoffate4791]

I love the library.... Oh, how I would love to spend down-time in that room, reading the day and evening away.

[@CLCIII]

It's amazing how they made the old new again and I appreciate all the attention to details. The basement is my favorite part of the house as it seems more liveable. This would appeal to a special eclectic type of owner. I could tell from many clues that it was a modern build. Unique and enjoyable tour! 😉 As Always, May God Bless you and yours!

[@ThisHouse]

We're so glad that you are enjoying our videos! Thanks for watching!

Wow, amazing home and completely shocked at the age. Wonderful tour, thanks again..!!

[@ahearingimpairedperson]

This is an absolutely gorgeous home 🤩😍!! I have a thing for red brick homes 🥰. Unfortunately, it's been sold as of June this year 😔...let me take a moment to cry 😭

[@kathleenpenny9388]

I like it better since it's not too old you can do alot to renew an old house but even if you do it's still old. So this one is relatively new and has alot of traditional quality finishes which is fabulous. Especially the chandeliers and the door knobs. I want diamond glittery cabinet knobs now! So cool!

[@amandab.recondwith8006]

I GOT IT RIGHT. While looking at the layout and the adjoining neighborhood architecture, I said out loud to myself: "I'd say 1998 or 1999." There is nothing antebellum about it. Personally, I thought the house itself was attractive, but the furnishings and fake woodwork (really, you could get those cornices at Home Depot) were gauche. If it were authentic and built in, say, the 1860s or 70s, it would most likely be Gothic Revival or Queen Anne style. So we end up with a faux Federalist house in a St. Louis suburb - and it looks it.

[@susannhartig3705]

Absolutely gorgeous……a dream.

[@eastcoastartist]

WOW WOW WOW!!!

I love that fridge under the staircase!

[@bohdaniszczuk6756]

The only thing that I dislike is the obsession with painting everything white to me it is like looking at a bright light and irritates the eyes.

You'd have to be stunned to buy it.

[@rupertjoseph8379]

I love the widows walk knock knock knocking on heavens door

[@johnkennamann1462]

Appreciate the tour. I'm having major conflicts internally with this home. On the surface, nothing wrong with what the owners have chosen to do, however it's odd af. The ceilings in most of the house are too low and I really don't like most of the modern touches (like can lights). I would guess most buyers are going to remove most of these things to modernize the home unfortunately.

[@ThisHouse]

Hopefully whoever buys the home will appreciate the craftsmanship that went into it.

[@kimvanek2322]

@@ThisHouse I guessed 2002 for the year it was built so I wasn’t too far off! Thank you for showing so many houses and also telling us about houses of the past that no longer exist! Love your channel and your expertise on the subjects you choose to explore!

Loved the first bathroom you show .. amazingly Beautiful ...thanks so much for sharing

[@ThisHouse]

[@treywest268]

Beautiful newer house but I would not want to clean it. I would much rather a Log Cabin type house of the same cost wherein the dust would not be as noticeable.

[@suspectsez4203]

I’m guessing that since a lot of the ceilings are reclaimed the house isn’t as old as it looks. So much smarter than trying to update an old house.

[@helen1962]

Um no, an older home built the same would cost 3 to 4 times as much with quality hardwoods, plaster work, windows made in the property etc.

[@a1wend1l]

Ooh the library!

Isn't it a showstopper?? Just gorgeous.

[@sopwithsnoopy8779]

Didn't think I would like it as much as I did, being a modern house. I still dont care for that spotlight lighting in the ceilings, but other than that I really liked it.

[@betsyh2503]

I had an inkling it was “newer” 😉

[@ThisHouse]

☺

[@a.graham3160]

I really thought 1929! Wow!

[@hbhb7900]

I guessed the age pretty closely. When I didn’t see layers of built up paint, I figured it couldn’t be very old.

[@vernonsanders371]

modern home coping a style of the early 1900s Greek revival that was popular back then

[@rupertjoseph8379]

Awesome

[@chuckandmax7313]

It’s a gorgeous house, but the floor plan doesn’t fit a period home, I would say the home is newer than one would think, but it is meticulously trimmed. Generally the first room of the house would be the front parlor or reception room, and you wouldn’t find a great room in a period house. One thing I did notice was that the doorways are not all carrying the same theme. I might be wrong, but it’s a glorious home and I would love to live in it, for a while, but I bet cleaning it would take forever.the lighting fixtures are also too new.the ceilings are also too low. The whole neighborhood looks like a very exclusive area.

[@ThisHouse]

Good eye! You really know what to look for to date a house. Cheers!

[@luanneriffle616]

The bonus room’s gave the age of the house away, I new it was fairly new.

[@deborahfederico7455]

Love it

[@ThisHouse]

Glad you like it!

[@reasonsformoving]

With a road going through the backyard and the obsessive open floor plan, it was obvious it was built within the last 30 years.

[@janethope2452]

Those wooden doors,are from a saloon tavern or pub in the olden days in the bedroom.

[@cat3rgrl917]

i guessed about 2000, when you live in a 130 year old house you notice things that are never present in newer home, lots of missing details where they would be and others where they would never be. Today's house building techniques while faster are not the same quality.

[@ThisHouse]

Good eye!

[@patrickm100]

It instantly felt like a 1990s McMansion mimicking older homes. The builders/owners had really tacky taste - how many Grecian columns do you need in one room?

[@des9655]

I know that house, it's off Hwy 141 between hwy 30 and Bowles

[@jacktough]

Do you think this was Joyce Meyer's home?

[@jeanbaker2087]

A library without books?

[@fredsavage4925]

A moment of silence for the 3 CNC machines that died making this millwork.

I had guessed almost right away that it was built in 1995.

[@rupertjoseph8379]

How much is it.?

Ceilings are too low for a grand old home. The interior spaces seem to be out of proportion. 1990's construction.

[@Bradlykins]

Funny, I said 1990's. The design, although could've been altered, clearly did not fit with how people used to live. All the flooring and finishes were also...oh who the hell am I KIDDING? It was pretty obvious.

[@alankelly-hamm2702]

The house is pretty much lacking in the kind of character that comes with age. It was likely built within the last 20 years. What was odd for me is that there was nothing within the house that had any age to it, no period pieces of furniture or older art. It was all kind of shiny new and characterless. It kind of shrieked "interior decorator" style.

[@carolgoering6585]

It looks like it was built in 1999. I could tell from the outside and the off the shelf trim that was put in that house. How many square feet makes a mansion? I have 6000 SqFt but a to car garage. Do I live in a mansion?

[@ThisHouse]

Good eye! The debate over what makes a mansion is somewhat of a contentious issue as there is no formal definition of the size required. Most people agree that a mansion is over 6,000 square feet with premium finishes.

[@bradleyjent7765]

70s Or 80s. Not classic trim proportions.

[@ThisHouse]

Close! It was built in 1999.

[@OurLastStand]

While the millwork is beautiful, the architecture choices to highlight rooms like the pantry and mud room with such intricate casings is just ridiculous. If you are going to spend the money at least use the details correctly.

[@davidcattin7006]

Didn't think it was very old. Too many "new" features that gave it away. They tried, but didn't throw enough money at it. Even so, it's hard to imbue a newer house with the feel and patina that only true age can give. Are the mullions real? Fake mullions are another clue when deciding the age of a property.

[@danielmoraga6474]

McMansion…. 🥴

[@CF-3300]

Kind of but not as bad as most. Probably built by a more reputable builder than most.

Nothing stated about original to the home. This is a modern built appearing in a replica styled home from colonial style period. It’s ostentatious and too much of different everything. There’s no symmetry or flow of design.

[@poodlegirl55]

Probably built in the 90's. Very over the top decor that screams new money, like a lottery winner built it. The way you come into the front door and look right at the dining table was a bad idea and you could see right into the kitchen. The only cozy or comfortable looking room was the library. The master bath with the stained glass and all the stuff was super tacky.

You can tell it is from the 90s, yes lots of detail however way too much effort in trying to make it look "antique".
