  • This beautiful old craftsman style house was built in the late 1800’s between 1880-1890. Sits nearly in town so I’m sure would’ve been a stunning place when first built in the area and still is today. The house was built for a well known horse wrangler of the area and his family. A neighbor told me the house was originally a sears kit home but I couldn’t find any information on that. Sadly the house was left vacant after being claimed as eminent domain for a new expansion and exit ramp of the nearby highway. The last owner was allowed too live there until passing away, leaving almost everything behind with no family left too claim the stuff. Now it just waits to be torn down sadly.
    Filmed this historical old brick house a few years ago. Glad to have documented this historic old farm house before it’s gone forever.

      I was just thinking of what a shame it is that it will be bull-dozed. I love old wood furniture. I have a bedroom set from one grandmother. She gave it to us as a wedding gift. It took months to get the old paint stripped off. Underneath was the most beautiful hand carved oak. I also have a wash stand that was thrown away from my great-grandmother's house after she died. Her heirs didn't think it was worth anything. It is precious to me!

My house is a kit house built in the 60's, but nothing like this old place. Mine was just built with a bunch of leftover material, and no doors that fit. But it's mine and I'm lucky to have it.

      I think others have been through the house before and taken whatever may have been of value. I noticed a hole in the floor and staircase. Maybe done deliberately thinking there may have been hidden valuables. I don't know. Just guessing because in them days banks were far and few between. Shame to see a lovely house passed its best due to neglect. Previous owner may have been old and infirmed or lacking finances. Now all seems lost due to progress of a road. Sad.

    A beautiful house. It looks like it was last updated in the early 1980s. That duck wallpaper and Pfaltzgraff pieces scattered about were popular back then. The old TV, ironing board closet, and wood paneling are from the 1960s-'70s. I LOVE the big bedrooms, French doors, and upstairs porch. What a charming house for a newlywed couple to start their lives in. Tfs, Kappy! 😊

I like that it didn't get remodeled too much, but at the same time, she deserved better than the 70s remodel that they did with the fake wood paneling and orange shag carpet. Too bad it will soon be just a memory. Glad that you captured it before it's gone!

    Thank you for sharing this old gem, Kappy. I'm wondering if the fireplace insert could be saved??? That old paneling was the real McCoy, since newer paneling is basically a picture on the surface... It's actually worth saving! The picture frame is definitely an antique... I'm wondering if there's a historical museum nearby that could accept a couple of items, especially that old picture... The basement was pretty rough, good thing you didn't linger there. As always, your work exploring and documenting these historic homes is most appreciated!

    Looks like it would have been a lovely house when it was built. Not much left now unfortunately. It might have had a fighting chance if it had had a metal roof put on. Roads have a tendancy to destroy old houses.

    Good evening, Kappy and all present! So glad that it's time for another interesting exploration of someone's past!
    This house's architecture is quite interesting and could have been preserved, except for its proximity to the new road. Now, sadly, the land on which it sits is worth much more than the house itself.
    It would seem that few people have explored this sweet little place. The green cabbage leaf bowl sitting on the table next to the TV hasn't moved at all!
    Kappy, that bird is a Carolina wren who may have a nest full of babies somewhere in that house. It knows exactly how to get in and out of the house, as will its progeny. Wrens are nosy little songbirds who seek out empty buildings in which to safely nest and raise their young. They are easily identified by their short tails which tip up at an almost right angle to their stocky little rust-colored bodies. The best thing you can do for that bird is to leave it alone!
    Oh, you didn't mention in your narrative description that the house was built as a wedding gift! That fact makes the house seem even more dear. I can almost imagine the happy couple walking through the rooms, being joyful in and proud of their little home.
    That's odd, there are a lot more pieces of bric-a-brac on the mantel than when you were here last. Maybe it was staged by photographers.
    You're absolutely right, Kappy, that is an ironing board closet. As a matter of fact, the narrow board used for sleeves is still in there!
    This house has such a happy feeling about it, in spite of the junk and the damage it has suffered. It seems content in its memories, unafraid of the future. There was a lot of love in this home, love for each other and for God.
    What a shame this once happy home with its basement filled with water has only weeks to live. It makes me sad to think of it. Nevertheless, it's going on my favorites list!
    Thanks for a doubly interesting exploration, my friend. It was nice to see this house, both times!
    Love from Tennessee, Becca

    The only reason I can think of for the owner not letting people come in and take the antiques, is the possible liability of someone getting hurt. So many unsafe floors and ceilings. Still, I would love to be able to take out the chandeliers, salvageable hardwood floors and furniture. I love wooden furniture and have bought many nice pieces and refurbished them.
