Beautiful 205 year old Abandoned Southern Mansion in Georgia
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- Chilly morning in Georgia! The house was built in 1815 in a typical I frame house which is very common in the south then expanded on to accommodate a large family and given the Victorian features in the late 1800’s! One of my favorite houses I have ever had the pleasure of filming! I loved everything about this place!! Thanks for watching! Happy new year too everyone!!

Where in Georgia is this house?
Kappy, I did what you recommended and everything is still bright. Still, from what I’m able to see, looks like a gem of a house.
@@Chrisss2112 I’m sorry, the video isn’t even loading for some people, UA-cam can be very frustrating!
It didn't come out bad to me!

Whoever built this house 200 years ago had some money. That house is outstanding and the woodwork is exquisite. This isnthe time I wish I was rich to rehab this beautiful home.
Most southern homes don't have basements because of the low country being below the water table. They usually built their homes higher off the ground to prevent flooding.
Houses like this are called ‘Painted Ladies.’ They sported many different colors of paint on their facades. What a treat to tour. I hope it can be rescued. Stay safe Kappy.
The bathroom upstairs was originally a maid's bedroom. That's why she had her own staircase down to the kitchen. And the small room at the beginning with the window benches may have been a music room. There would have been a piano in there, and the benches were for the violinists and flautists with their music stands in front of them--musical accompaniment for entertaining. I know of another old mansion that had the same type of room, and the owners told me what it was. Lovely old home. Heartbreaking to see the lack of interest in preserving it.
Probably cost prohibitive. And then bringing it up to code...
It is actually for sale again and seen it in the realtor ads. It is one of many that is deemed historic so I guess there is a lot of rules when restoring it. I love the house and would love to see someone bring it back to its glory days.
This house is interesting in that it would have been built before the Victorian era, before the curved porches and gingerbread. Six over windows are used in Federal (Colonial) style houses, which is what this one originally was. It was heavily remodeled in the late 1800s when the towers, porch and interior gingerbread details would have been added. The doorknob you thought was from the '20s or '30s is actually from the 1800s. Amazing that all the mirrors in the fireplaces are still intact and not vandalized. I hope the vandals never find it.
greyeaglem, Would you be able to advise about restoring early 1800s Georgia houses?
@@chalcedony6858 I just have an amateur level interest in architecture. I wish I had studied it, but I didn't. If you have a project like that the best advice I could give would be to do all the research you can about that era. If you hire people to work on it, try to find ones that are also interested in architecture. A lot of damage gets done by people not caring about maintaining the integrity of the original design and often because it adds a lot of cost to the project. I know a guy who did a restoration that cost more than the house did. He does have a beautiful house now though. He even had stained glass pieces made for windows that were copies of designs from a local stained glass company from the 1800s. He also found a place that still makes the push button electric switches that were original to the house. He had a lot of fun finding companies that could copy light fixtures, etc. for him.
Thank you for the historical insight and info. Otherwise this video contains nothing but the words “very pretty”.
For that age ..was thinking federal style too. I wonder what it originally looked like.
@@vannjunkin8041 Now I'm not so sure it was remodeled. I have seen another video since then of another brick house that is part federal, part Queen Ann and part gothic. At first I thought it was built onto, but now I'm thinking it was built all at once with mixed styles because it has 6 over windows throughout. I may be wrong though because it also had the windows that come all the way down to the floor and that was more of an antebellum thing. Really hard to say. If part of the house has 6 over windows and the other part is single or two pane windows, then it's likely colonial with an addition.
That house is exquisite, every bedroom has its own unique fireplace and the floors in the entrance are labors of love. That staircase were laborious work was done. A very expensive home of it's day and expensive. What a joy to see.
I see a lot of folks are having viewing problems with this video. I however am not. The fireplaces were beautiful. as well as the staircase. And that entrance floor! What a labor to "craft" such an intricate floor! I have never seen a pocket door with that type of hardware! Gorgeous house! Hope it is saved!
I had no problem, either. Gorgeous house!
That is SO my kind of house I can see myself sittin on that porch
Rose Andulics.......I sooooo agree with you “Victorian” has always been my favorite architecual style
I second that! I'd love have coffee in morning & glass wine at night on that porch. I love details in house as beautiful as that
Me too!😍 It looks similar to the house I grew up in. Love it!😍
I'd love to sit there with you
ME TOO!!😃😃
This by far is my favorite house!!!!! The fireplaces are magnificent as well as the staircase. I don’t understand why it is not on a registry of historical sites. I am so very grateful to at least get a glimpse at it, thank you!!!
I wish i could afford to buy this house.
Beautiful old home, I hope someone will save it. Thank you Kappy.
There would be a fireplace in every bedroom and in the rooms where people gathered. It was the only method of heat they had. Btw, thank you for showing all the beautiful architecture. So many explorers concentrate on personal goods they find in the structure rather than the architecture; the junk strewn on the floors, the furniture, the animal waste, etc.
I totally agree! I’m interested in the architecture - not the trash. Looks like someone was intending to fix up the place but something happened. That place could be made beautiful again. I don’t think it would cost a million, maybe a couple hundred thousand.
@@desperadorose7054 ---and worth every penny! We lose too much of the beauty and wonderful craftsmanship, only to be replaced with cracker-box tract houses, modern faceless lackluster piles of concrete, architects' dreams (that look like nightmares to my old eyes), and condos (modern hives for humans). Wish people with money and love of good architecture and craftsmanship would find Kappy's site to find gems like this on which to spend some of it. Stay safe.
@@desperadorose7054 It would cost more than that I think. Probably needs to be rewired, some kind of central heat installed and then plaster repairs, etc. I would love to see someone take it on though.
That round porch is gorgeous. And the fireplace is stunning, all of the fireplaces are. Wow this is one house that I would love to live in. A very good tour. thank you, lean on God
This house was a show place in its day. Thats one of the coolest stair cases that Ive ever seen!
floor
WOW !! AND DOUBLE WOW !! This grand old home is absolutely gorgeous !! My house was built in 1890 and it still has all the ornate old wood work still and hasn't been painted. I love all the old fireplaces and that stairway wow ! That wood floor was amazing !! All of theses touches were done when craftsmanship and love was put into a home . I have a real passion for theses wonderful old homes !! Just makes me sick to see it sitting like this !! Neglected and all that garbage in it !! It has survived 200 years and now this is how it sits , all the love it once had it deserves again someone should save this grand old home before its gone for good !! Great video Kappy I love your work !! Also the video played just fine for me . Don't know how you find all theses wonderful old home to show me but I love it keep them coming !! Stay safe my friend .
This was definitely a grand lady in her day....beautiful beautiful home..Love those mirrored fireplaces...so extravagant...some originally doors with all the vertical boards...Dumb waiter is amazing..The round rooms up stairs are the turrets on top of the house ...little castle looking..Such a beautiful house Kappy. Thank you my young friend...Gayle from Tennessee
All that beautiful carved wood, newel posts, banisters! And real parquet floors! And door knobs and doors! I wonder what the woods ate that were used. It’s such a shame that no one will buy and restore a beauty like this. You will never see such craftsmanship again.
Thank you that was great! Such detail in the woodwork and fireplaces. Houses today can't begin to compare!!
This house is amazing, breaks my heart that it won't be around much longer. Somebody needs this old girl in their life , to love and save her. Thanks , your vids are the best.
Luckily homes in this town are being saved slowly. I’m praying this one is next
What a beautiful old lady. I would love to renovate and live in this mansion. Thank you for being so respectful and appreciating this beautiful place. Best ever video❣️
What part of GA?
If the house is as old as you say it is then it went through a major Remodel and modernization in the 1890s. The turrets gingerbread and a witches cap Rubes are very Queen Anne. Inside several of the mantles were apparently changed. The mantle in the dining room and the ceiling there look also to be Circa 1890s. The white mantle is colonial revival again Circa 1890s. The staircase and stairwell Hall AR aesthetic movement with Japanese influence again Circa 1890s.
Yes read the description
Yes the house looks late 19th Century definitely. I see nothing that looks to be earlier. It's beautiful don't get me wrong
A lot of the houses in this area sadly modernized in the 1890s-1920s. We owned one in this town that was modernized and took it back to as original as we could
Architecturally I think that's one of the better houses you've shown
The parquetry floor in the hall is beautiful too, bordered by the classic Greek key design
Beautiful home.. You can tell someone worked really hard to keep this place in this good of shape and there was no one to follow. 😥
That house is unreal! Do you think there are squatters living there now based on all the stuff and laptops? That house needs to be saved before it gets worse. Nice find as always Kappy, thank you! - John
I was wondering about squatters too. Such a beautiful house and so well built. Built with pride. I hope it is saved and treated with the respect it deserves.
Looked like a place people were making drugs
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous !!! Absolutely loved this place!!! The doors, door casings, windows, window casings & wooden floors are epic!!! The fireplaces are phenomenal with their beveled glass mirrors!!! The dumb waiter was awesome for it’s day! In it’s day it was beautiful!!! I hope that this wonderful property can be saved & restored!!! What a waste if it’s not😔 Thank you for sharing this epic location!!! I loved it ❤️
This is one of the most beautiful house that you have ever shown on your channel good job
I love how optimistic and stuff he is. It's really nice to hear someone really appreciate something even though it's old and run down
My dad bought this house when I was in the 4th grade. He spent a couple of years fixing it, and I remember exploring the house and surrounding outdoors with my sister. There were so many hidey holes and we loved the short time we lived there. I do remember my having a very hard time getting approval to fix a lot of things before he lost the house🙄 shame it has fallen to this state.
Absolutely gorgeous... if I had a couple of million dollars.
Ot wpuldnt take that much to fix it up if your handy wireing water and roof then any water damage then each room as you go cleaning it up would take awhile
@@johnhawk9321 Agreed there are non profit organizations that do just that restoring abandoned mansions.
OMG! I love, love this house! What a masterpiece! The incredible fireplace mantels with the mirrors, the hardware on the doors, that incredible staircase, and bric brac, etc, etc, etc. I would love to own this place. This house looks like it's in terrific condition. I really hope this doesn't get ignored. It was nice to see that there wasn't graffiti all over the walls and no destruction by disrespectful punks.
A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. Is this home located on what they call the Magnolia Trail? It looks like they were trying to get the paint off the wood - I see that in several areas. That fancy ceiling was not originally painted. What is awesome is most of the windows are intact. When the home was built - the carpenters took great pride in their work. You don't find that much anymore. It looks like someone was living there while trying to renovate the home. The foundation seems to be in pretty good condition. That is a plus.
It is amazing the house has not been destroyed. So much of the original hardware is there. I am in love with all the detail.Truly an artist built this home.
This house is incredible. I grew up in South Carolina and was always told those doors to nowhere were built back in the day to confuse the haints. So cool. Your channel is the shit man. I just adore these places and your respectful observing.
My mom and I used to explore old plantations and houses when I was a kid just like this. Haha usually 90 degrees with all sorts of things buzzing around. I hated it at the time but boy do I miss it now. Takes me back! Thank you.
If you're ever in the Carolinas and want some quiet company I'm your man!
PLEASE someone buy this house and save it!!!
👍👍👍👍 my thoughts exactly.
If I could only hit the lottery. HEAR ME, LORD?
@@imasonofadeadbeat2928 right!!!

Incredible find! 👏 Hard to comprehend what must’ve happened for this house to become abandoned and left to rot. At least vandals haven’t trashed it. Hope someone can restore it some day - it doesn’t look too far gone.
I seem to find a common thread with alot of these houses is greed. The spouse or child that inherits the home has no connection to it and would rather let it rot than let it revert back to the family they worked so hard to get it from.
Beautiful home...one of a kind find! It would take a lot of money but it sure would be nice if someone would be able to restore it .... would be so much fun living in I'm sure ❤️
And I thought *I* drink a lot of coffee. The previous occupants gave me a run for the money, with all the Cafe Bustelo cans sitting there. 😀
OMG!!! BUY THAT HOUSE!!!!! Beautiful!!!!
OMG and my-oh-my-oh-my and wow-wow-wow and in-freaking-credible, what a _beauty!!!_ Kappy, I think this is the best of the prettiest old homes you've shown us. The views of the exterior had me catching my breath---and just the first sight of the interior had me holding it. Tongue and Groove ceilings, each fireplace as beautiful as the last, incredibly intricate parquet floor (reminiscent of ancient mosaic tile) in the entrance hall, and that wonderful staircase... I always like the workmanship of the windows of these old places, with their prisms, etched or colored glass, and the designs of the panes. (While I can understand the uninspired new kitchen and bathroom appurtenances---cabinets, plumbing, and such---I know there are "New-Old" replacements for the originals available, but...) I think this is another home I'll have to "revisit." Thank you so much. Stay safe, everybody.
This was an absolutely beautiful home. I wish someone would have the decency to clean out the trash that has accumulated here and return it to its glory days.
Breaks my heart to this Grand Old Dame abandoned and neglected.
They are called Pocket doors. Houses that old HAD fireplaces in each room because they didn't have central heat or radiators. It sits off the ground so far to allow breezes to keep the house cool in the summer. Those were not "porches" but turret rooms often used as conservatory or sun rooms, or small sitting rooms.
That's exactly like the kind of house I've wanted to restore and live in forever! What an amazing find! Almost no vandalism either. Loved the video!👍🏽
If the filthy rich want to do me and many others that feel the same any favors, then please buy this house and restore it! Keep it around for future generations. What a gorgeous and obviously well-built house.
What a beautiful house. Loved the detailed woodwork, the fireplaces and all the big windows. Thanks for taking me along with you.
Nice little orb at the 6:50 mark. Beautiful house!
This is so beautiful! My parents had a Victorian house built in 1895 and this house reminds me of it so much. I've always wanted to live in Georgia and I would love to live in this house and restore it ❤️
That one bedroom in blue had it's own alcove. At the top of the servant's stairs is a maids quarters. As a kid in the 1960's, we had lived in a big house with a maids quarters in the attic. There was a front staircase, and a back staircase. Miss these old homes.
Oh my Kappy. I would love to buy this house and fix up.
I have seen all of your explores and I have to say this is in my top 3 of beautiful houses!! I truly hope someone saves this gem!! Nice to see you had company on this one too. Stay safe! ✌
This is such a gorgeous home! It’s a shame someone hasn’t continued to give it the love it deserves! That you for capturing it!
Such details in this home. I love it.
It’s heartbreaking to see what people have done to these beautiful old homes.
Totally gorgeous house! The detailing on the woodwork is amazing! And oh those fireplaces!
I love that porch too! So sad a house like that is trashed though! I hope someone buys and restores it!
I understand not disclosing locations, but, does Kappy keep track of locations in case someone wants to try to buy and save these beauties? I love seeing them but it is also so sad not knowing if they can be saved.
At least tell us the State and year filmed. That upstairs doorway to death should have been closed for safety reasons. Nice find.
I'd be interested in buying and restoring it
@@thomasewing2656 Kappy DID detail both of those? The date it was filmed was: January 7th of this year(2021) as noted in the subscript beneath the title (as it is in ALL the vids posted here!) Secondly, immediately below that date is Kappy's descriptive paragraph which starts with "It was a chilly morning in Georgia. Your lack of attention to these details is surprising considering what you DID notice about the house itself? ;-)
Beauitful House. I agree it must have been really grand when it was first built. Love the hardware on those Pocket Doors. Sure wish they would go back to installing and using Pocket doors. Space saving and elegant at the same time. I could just go on an on an on about all the Cool Architecture. TbankS for Sharing
That's a very big house,and is 200 yrs old,it's in pretty good shape for the age of it.Like the fireplaces and the woodwork on stairs.Thanks,from morrow,GA.
The most beautifully intricate house I've seen to date. Such exquisite details. I hope it doesn't go into decay and that someone would lovingly restore it. I sure would if I had the resources! Why can't builders build such beauty in homes anymore? Its a lost art. 🥺
This explore was awesome Kappy. Love how you showed a lot of the little details here and there. This house was indeed grand in it's hay day. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful place with us!
Hey Kappy, this is a real beauty, from the outside, at least. It needs a coat of paint, but most of us older belles do, from time to time! The houses were built high off the ground back then to keep them nearer to the cooling breezes in the summer.
This verandah is so nice! Who wouldn't enjoy some iced tea out here? I know one fellow who would really like that!
That fireplace surround is lovely. Stunning pocket doors and their hardware, too! The expansive use of colors in the house is amazing! I think that's called a coffered ceiling, Kappy. That fireplace treatment is gorgeous!
Those floors are beyond beautiful and the carving on every inch of exposed wood is just over the top. I like the address etched into the transom over the front door. Hope nobody figures out where this house is from that.
There's so much plain old garbage in this one! The kitchen is an absolute dump! It really looks like someone was squatting in this house, not too long before you were here! Goodness, that fireplace surround is so beautiful! Look at all those cans of coffee! Wonder if they're empty or full. Looks like someone was stocking up on everything they could to be able to stay here and not be seen going in and out. Hey Zane! Glad you're here to keep old Kappy out of trouble.
Another pretty fireplace surround! Yes, it wouldn't take all that much money to bring this house back to life. It deserves a second chance!
These turrets are so charming! I'd enjoy some of that coffee out there with a good book.
It's almost jarring, to see laptops on the floor of this house, a real time warp. You know, there must be an active electrical connection to this house. How else could someone power the microwave, lights, the floor fan or the laptops? It's just another mystery.
The ballerina wallpaper border would make me think this was a girl's room. Maybe there was a balcony outside the door to the drop off but it fell down.
You know, seeing those clothes hanging there, I think someone is living here now! They look relatively clean and new.
This last room is a mess! That, um, break your leg staircase to the attic is an insurance claim waiting to happen! Glad you didn't try it!
Well, maybe someone was living there and was evicted but nobody cleared up their mess or maybe they're watching you and wondering what you're doing there.
A dumb waiter! How cool! The mannequin is sort of creepy, though.
Whatever is the story of this Magnificent old lady, she deserves to be saved. Maybe the city will help to save this forgotten jewel. I sure hope so.
Thanks, Kappy and Zane. This one, though puzzling, was a joyful trip.
This is the most beautiful home and to bad no one wanted to restore this back to its original look. It looks like squatters lived in it for awhile. Thanks for sharing 💕
Kappy, I'm proud of how much you care about these old places! You have learned a lot of the terminology of the old pieces of hardware, ect. Love how you show them off too! Keep up your work son! It's great to see the youth taking an interest. Congratulations on another awesome exploration!
I fell in love with Adam's family always dreamed of living in a large house like this.
I hope you are able to buy and restore one of these places one day and really be able to advocate for these historical homes. We are such a young country. This IS all we have for our history and they should be preserved.
This place is beautiful! It's so sad to me that people just walk away from these beautiful places and they wind up just going to pot. Thank you for sharing
Please keep them coming Kappy stay safe out there my friend
This is my favorite house so far that you have filmed. I think part of the appeal is the fact that it is not completely caving in on itself. Yes, its totally a mess and needs mega repairs but what I could see, it appears to be salvageable. I would love to see someone restore it to its former glory. Thanks for a great video!
Hope someone buys this for restoration, it's a work of art and history🙏🎶💖it's beautiful piece of architecture. Thank you. 💕
What a beauty! The fireplaces, light coverings, parquet flooring, elaborate staircase, just wow! Looks like somebody tried to do it up, left and vagrants have been using it. That is just too beautiful to fall into ruin.
You're always bringing us beautiful homes to see. Love your videos. Awesome job. ❤
What an incredible house! It's gorgeous!! The woodwork, the fire places and that amazing staircase! I really hope that someone restores it. Thanks for taking us along for the tour! Thanks for sharing, Kappy!😊❤
Such a beautiful home. Someone needs to buy it and give it the love it needs.
I love this version better- I like it bright- and don't know why anyone would be complaining about it. I love all of the windows!!
Beautiful, beautiful! Woodwork and fireplaces, wow! One of the best houses you've filmed! Hope someone is able to restore it. Have a safe and great new year!
Higher-minded people built that house. Compare that house to the dog kennels we accept today. Those houses have soul - you feel it as soon as you walk in. Closets were the size needed to hang a coat, hat and shoes. People made clothes to last; consumerism was yet to come.
whatever that light is, it blinds everything you shine it on. Flashlight alone was perfect. Stunning house.
Try watching on your phone if watching on laptop or computer that’s seemed to work for everyone else

This home is just beautiful!!!! The stairwell is stunning and nothing was broken on it!!!!! Every room with a fireplace !!!! Just love that!!!! Why are so many of these houses have so much trash????? Just don’t understand it. …. Hopefully this can be saved!! Thanks Kappy for a great video!!!!!
What an absolute sin this house is being left idle. What a beautiful place!!
I so want to live there! Beautiful inside n out. I do so hope someone buys n restores this amazing home. The bay windows n the wood entry n stair area is my favorite. So many sweet little details here. Grand find Kappy. Be safe n well. GB
There is so much character in these old homes. So pretty! Love the front porch
Pretty good shape for 200 yrs. Old! Wow!!! Goes to show how well houses were built back then and the materials that were used compared to some houses built before this house were the ceiling is falling in - this is in pretty good shape.
Kappy! you sure know how to bring out the best, when it comes to showing us all these beautiful abandoned nicely crafted houses, throughout all of your exploration files. I mean this mansion is truly an historical american icon, in terms of architectural construction. A truly real masterpiece that deserves to be preserved and restored. Thank you ❤️ Greetings to you and a belated Happy New Year 2021. All the best! Johnny Montreal Canada.
I know you can't disclose the location however do you have info on the owners? I would love to chat with them. Absolutely beautiful now, imagine restored. Thank you for your videos. They food for my soul😀
Nothing better than the art of old houses I wouldn't have a new house They are cookie cutter houses Love the detail and artistic style 👌 ❤❤❤back then all rooms had fireplaces
My heart is breaking because of the neglect! Someone finance me and we could bring back the beautiful ole painted lady! What a dream!
Nice looking house, definitely worth restoreing.
I love the way you look at a place such as this. How the architect is in in and how you see the beautiful it once was and not all the crap that has been left behind. i think you truly have a heart for old homes. this was a grand home at one time. your lighting was not good. it was sorta on the white side. just to let ya know. I do in joy your page.
I saw this just fine. It was impossible to tell the roof condition, but from what I could see, the house looks solid. If only there were enough people with enough money to rehab places like this. This one is definitely looking like one that should be rehabbed.
Saw this toured about 1-2 yrs yrs ago, wasn't as trashed as now. Absolutely beautiful!
If this were restored it would be fantastic 😊
Anything on this house I can lookup? Families? I’m really curious about this. It’s survived over 200 years. I can’t believe that home’s abandoned. It obviously has had much love through the years.
Ikr just think of all the storms that it has seen and it is still amazing
The home really became more run down in the 2000s. When I was a child I thought it was amazing and called it the gingerbread house. It makes me sad to see it this way.
It's the Pendelton- Graves house, Sparta, Georgia.
This is one the the most beautiful homes still in tact with it’s original hardware and fretwork..I hope no one finds it and strips it of all it’s fireplace mantles and tiles..Even the Parquet flooring looked to be in good shape..Everything just needs a thorough cleaning and maybe repainted or stained..I did notice all of the original light fixtures were not in the house..But a lovely piece of fretwork was propped up in the kitchen..May or may not have been original to the house..So want someone to Restore not renovate this lovely piece of history…Again thank you for sharing..
All those yellow cans on the shelf and a few on floor are Coffee cans pretty new too I buy that coffee in same can.
That ceiling with all the squares is called a coffered ceiling.
"A coffer in architecture is a series of sunken panels in the shape of a square, rectangle, or octagon in a ceiling, soffit, or vault."
Wow,,very interesting house,,like them fireplaces and staircase,,and that unique squared ceiling is beautiful as well,,great video mr kappy,,keep up the good work,,happy new year
Stunning! Absolutely beautiful! What a find Kappy. This house needs to be restored and put on a historic registry. All the detail of the woodwork, fireplaces, ceilings is amazing! 💖💖
Magnificent and built so strong. No holes in the flooring and the fireplace in every room is not surprising as this was the only form of heat I'm sure. Thank you. Great video.
NYC 😊
Kappy,how do you find these houses? This one is right up my alley! I love Victorian houses, this one is dynamite, boy I wish I won the NY mega pot,I'd be in Georgia in a minute!! This is the most beautiful one yet,you will never find any house built now or recent past around two hundred years from now,great video,thanks kappy!!
I’m pretty sure it’s not much money to buy it! You’ll be surprised how much these abandoned homes go for.
Sooooo, 9 times outta 10 this property is being fought over as so many are here. I'm from South Georgia and there are ALOT of houses like this gem that are tied up in probate.
If they do not sort themselves out, a lot of good houses will be lost to decay or fire.
Absolutely @SarahStrong , I live in a rural area. And I can't count how many homes here are tied up. And most of the folks don't need the house. BUT, in the county I live in NO ONE sells property. My home was built in 1902, and my family has lived here since the town, county was formed. Our "family" home place can never be sold nor can money be borrowed against it.
@@billiehorne8027 Great that your family have somewhere to return to.
Not being fought over. The person who bought this house was renovating in back in the 90s. A friend I know was helping him. He died suddenly and the house was eventually sold. It’s been empty for years and my friend has no further info on it. It’s just sitting going to decay. But there’s similar houses in this old town similar to this house being bought, renovated and restored. I’m hoping this house will be saved too.
@@madambutterfly5343
I know you probably don't want to elaborate on exact location, understandably but what part of GA? Not town just general (North, West, East or South).
Thank you, Kappy, for this chance to see inside old homes. I've always wondered, and wondered, what they would be like inside.
