Certainly a beautiful home fronting these cheaply built tract homes beside it . Still has most of its charm throughout, a diamond in the rough ! Thank you for another wonderful explore ❤
This house definitely has charm and personality with each different room with its different wallpaper, the trim work the wood floors downstairs very beautiful too bad it has to be demolished it really would be worth fixing up and possibly making a board and care home you got all the extra rooms, a little person that a little more personality and a great sense of determination this would make a beautiful place it's what they would call historic Thank you for sharing
BEAUTIFUL HOME!!! That whole entire stairway was absolutely GORGEOUS... And surprisingly I actually like that wallpaper!! How sad they're going to be demolishing this house!! I bet you someone that knew what they were doing can bring this house rite back to the stunning home that it once was!!! But unfortunately that wont be happening😢
what a beauty, i agree that at the very least the trim, hardware, doors could be salvaged for another home. the old wallpaper in fragments is perfect collage fodder. horsehair reinforcement is ag related, my house ( 1939) has hemp fiber. the built in tv was unique, a handyman must have lived there at one point. thanks for sharing and keep up documenting these charmers for their historical charms, roger
Really nice house. Been changed around a lot since it was built. Hopefully they save those door and window frames before they tear it down. I've seen this happen so many times before, and old house torn down and all the land around it becomes new houses. WHEN the old house would make a great centerpiece to the new neighborhood. Give the place some character. Something new houses lack.
Thank you for this video. What a beautifull old house from 1903. These houses were build to last. Build in shelves and cupboards are so handy. A big kitchen, so nice. Old fashioned bathroom, but nice, maybe from the 1970's. Woodwork on the stairs, balcony, and above the doors are very beautifull. So lovely to see. Such a beautifull house.❤❤❤A great pity to pull it down😥😥 Better to renovate, maybe into flats.
Loved this home! I am pretty sure that there is a coal cellar under the front porch in the basement of this home. The coal would be delivered thru a window or a door into that cellar back in the 20's and people would then use the coal to heat their furnaces. We had a coal cellar in our basement under the front porch of our 1920's western bungalow.
Beautiful home! I love the wallpaper that covers the main area of the house. Ive never seen trim like that outside of a mansion or something like that.
That TV looks like a 50s model. The round tube style is indicative of the first Color tvs. Try pushing the button Only once ... The tubes had to heat up before the screen would light up. There was no instant on back in the day 😁
It is built to love and made for a families dream home wow back in de day they were all workers so wonderful to see such beauty i love whole inside and out it has been redun since it was built too bad the stairs were painted :( . Too bad it will be gone it should be saved and build homes around it oh the look would be speechless incredible . Thank you for this explore/adventure friend HAPPY NEW YEARS .. Love ya Barbie & Sam FL.
I get very sad when developers feel they have to rip down beautiful old houses for estates. They should be fixed up and sold and the estate cheap houses should be planned around it It has been done 😢😢
You were right, there was awesome wallpaper in here! Thanks so much for pointing out all the neat little details. And after watching this i did a search and the doors i was talking about apparently are just called 'cellar doors' (neat if you lived on a farm 100 yrs ago with nobody around for miles, creepy as a modern thing with people living close by being able to get into your house). Have a great night, and thanks again! 🙂
Can you imagine how the stairway and wall used to look in all natural wood?! How terrible to have painted it. That basement was actually pretty clean. It was clean and not dark.
The fridge probably was next to the serving hatch originally and the little hanging light was meant to be over a kitchen table. There was a built in shelf just to the right of the fridge that probably held decorative items or coffee cups. They covered the ceiling in the basement with cardboard boxes? That's a first for me. I loved seeing all the different wallpaper upstairs and in the foyer. I actually really liked a few of them. The house I lived in until I was 4 had the exact same boomerang countertops in the kitchen, as well as the same knotty pine and hammered black pulls and handles. It was built in the 50's. Loved this explore.
In it's time, this would have been a nice home. Lots of character. I did not like all the wood paneling in the house. The attic and basement... CREEPY!!! Thank you for sharing. 😊
Love the trim around the doors and windows. Should be salvaged as it could be used elsewhere. It would be beautiful in any home. Don't care for wallpaper however it's interesting to see. Enjoyed tour, thanks.
Peggys1140 We bought a house that was built in late 1870's and it has been a rental for a while. All of the woodwork(most was original) was painted white! I spent 2 years stripping it all and stained it. We had to replace all of the wood floors and put down new wood. Nothing painted white!
@ That sounds so beautiful! Can’t imagine how much hard work that took. Landlords just slather paint all over everything to hide flaws. So glad you appreciate the house and its history. Enjoy! 🌺🌻🌹
The people who bought my grandfather's house in Winchester (built 1868) did the same. Painted the beautiful sliding pocket doors white, all the mouldings white, ripped out the woodstove, all the original woodwork was either painted white or removed...they owned it from 1963 to around 2014 and hardly did any updates. The only thing I could recognize from my childhood was the front door...
Yeah, there's NOT much about this house I like, with the exception of the Stairwell, and the Trim on the Windows. Were people praying downstairs?! That's what it sounded like!!!! And I DID NOT KNOW they made Plaster out of Horse Hair at one time. You're so SMART Urbex!!!!
Pull that knob out on the old TV to turn it on. We had one (not built in) like it when I was a kid. Almost certainly doesn't work anymore. Caps long dried out at least.
Definitely need to salvage the wood throughout, fixtures etc. I hope they don't see simply bulldoze without removing the good stuff. People weren't fans of these houses in the 50/60's......I feel like someone had it reluctantly and decided they were going for a style that should have been in a 50's bungalow.....
The living room haas book shelves with a window seat to sit and read by. My Aunt All did that always in her very old house. Kitchen likely just plywood as it would have been cheap. Old Whirlpool stove if cleaned up would work fine still. OLd paneling in some rooms. I don't see a pantry but may have kept canned goods downstairs and there would be a cold room. Disability bars in pink bathroom so someone old lived there. Old attic. I wonder if they left the hydro on to salvage old trim, lights etc.
I think it's a pretty nice old home, biggest renovation would be the kitchen and bathroom. I'd have to add a 1/2 bath on the main floor and a 3/4 bath in the basement. I think I would bring a architect in to see if a 3/4 bath would be possible to add on the second floor as a master ensuite, may have to reduce from a 4 bedroom to a 3 bedroom upstairs but can add another bedroom in the basement. Would take alot of money but in the end worh it if it still had its property around it. The house on the outside isn't bad looking design.
It's obvious that the house has recently been used as an office, probably for planning of the new construction, which is why the utilities are still on and alcohol beverages are still available and the wall paper are from the 80's.
Its a half decent house just need to rip out the rotting porch get rid of the dampness and clean it up a bit, , pure waste to knock it, the front hall has the best timberwork, good bits for salvage in it
The PO place where the refrigerator was I believe was the old breakfast nook in the kitchen and why that ceiling light fixture was there. There was some wall niche's in the side wall next to the refrigerator
Unfortunately once the roof goes that bad it's not long before the rest of the house is destroyed. I'm sure there was a lot of damage you couldn't see.
Those old model TVs used tubes back in the early 1940s that Tv is antique. they don’t make tubes for old TVs they have to be ordered online my Aunt had an old b&w this thing was humongous.
You sure they're not trying to save the house to make a club house out of it?Our offices for the neighborhood.They cleaned it up a whole bunch just to tear it down
Loving the house tour but had to mute my tv where I was first watching it as your mates loud voice was so annoying, you should have asked him to tone it down , he was aggravating with his booming voice at times drowning you out, would have been better to do it with out him there ,just saying his voice was really loud and annoying lol
Very nice house, but too bad you're not just a little bit more curious and like to do some research! Alas, you're young to be "triggered" by some of the items you pass by or over. Down in the old basement of this beauty-house you said, "What's this? It's like under the porch. Look how old some of those boxes are." On the ceiling, remember? One of those old boxes you skipped right over was a neat piece of Toronto's history. It is a placard from the Royal Alexandra Theatre (the Royal Alex.) The theatre opened in 1907 and is still going strong today! The program showed the current play, "Becky Sharp" by William Thackery. The play's lead actress was listed on the placard (on the ceiling) as Haila Stoddard. That show ran from Aug 14-19, 1944 here in Toronto at the Royal Alex. And that placard on the ceiling that you missed, was an ad for that live theatre production, put on, 37-years after the theatre was built!! How great is that little bit of history! Nonetheless, as I noted, I really liked this house, a lot and think like yourself there's a ton of potential here. You usually do a good job going through places and this one is good too. I do thank you.
Multiple people talking and filming in the same house at the same time is so distracting. I don't know why it's so common in these urbex videos. Otherwise, good stuff.
You really need to get your decades straight most the wallpaper is 70's with some 80s mixed in TV is late 40's to 50's downstairs bathroom is mostly 70s the trunk is military 50s or 60s an the orange glass in bathroom is actually plastic sheeting the wood panels are late 60s to early 80s

Always amuses me to listen to young Millennials talk about what they think is "so old".

Sad this old historic house will probably be torn down! House has some awesome old features! Cool video as usual bro! 👍👍❤️🤘😢

Beautiful old home. History etc. Will soon be gone . Perhaps not with family but gone.😢😮😅😊
Beautiful 🏠. House is made with wall and beams. A home is made with love and dreams. Thank you so much for the awesome video. I do appreciate it. 🌻 😊

Nice one. Glad you got there before it gets demolished
Far too many beautiful old historical homes are being demolished.
Instead of being made part of the new neighborhood.
Casa maravilhosa!Amo casas assim!Deveria ser restaurada,e não demolida😢😊❤
Beautiful home! I love the wallpaper that covers the main area of the house. Ive never seen trim like that outside of a mansion or something like that.
18:00 When i heard Greg with his intro i crack up!
I love this so much
Not creepy. Old and beautiful.
❤ I LOVE seeing the different types of wallpaper ! Thankyou! ❤
That TV looks like a 50s model. The round tube style is indicative of the first Color tvs. Try pushing the button Only once ... The tubes had to heat up before the screen would light up. There was no instant on back in the day 😁
If I had unlimited funds, then yes I would restore this house.
I would live there!
It is built to love and made for a families dream home wow back in de day they were all workers so wonderful to see such beauty i love whole inside and out it has been redun since it was built too bad the stairs were painted :( .

Thanks for watching! Happy New Year to you and your family too.

Love the hippy era wallpapers. Like you said, wouldn’t want it but the 50-60’s colors and styles are fabulous (my Mon had avac
avocado green appliances when I was a kid). Sorry. Really enjoy your tours of old farm houses!
So sad when a beautiful home is not kept up and ends up being torn down; must be really expensive to fix.
Beautiful house !
Yes it’s 2 euros ! 😊
Love the trim around the doors and windows. Should be salvaged as it could be used
elsewhere. It would be beautiful in any home. Don't care for wallpaper however it's interesting to see. Enjoyed tour, thanks.
Love this house
Interesting 🤔 awesome 👍🏾❤
Why oh why did people feel the need to cover the beauty of natural wood with paint??? 😡
To avoid refinishing the wood or just to brighten up the space. Taste is relative...😅
Peggys1140 We bought a house that was built in late 1870's and it has been a rental for a while. All of the woodwork(most was original) was painted white! I spent 2 years stripping it all and stained it. We had to replace all of the wood floors and put down new wood. Nothing painted white!

Loved the architectural details like the original doors & beautiful trim.
The cabinet pulls was the same as I had in my California apartment built in 1959
Good 👍 😊
I can't believe they painted the hardwood floor upstairs
It’s softwood, was usually painted/grained around the perimeter of the room, and left unfinished where a rug would lay
Yeah, there's NOT much about this house I like, with the exception of the Stairwell, and the Trim on the Windows. Were people praying downstairs?! That's what it sounded like!!!! And I DID NOT KNOW they made Plaster out of Horse Hair at one time. You're so SMART Urbex!!!!
That light fixture in the dinning room is bad ass!
Pull that knob out on the old TV to turn it on. We had one (not built in) like it when I was a kid. Almost certainly doesn't work anymore. Caps long dried out at least.

Nice house. Would have been amazing restored.
Ładny dom,ozdobne futryny drzwi. Trzeba wyremontować, usunąć farbę ze stolarki i te pstrokate tapety, zrobić podłogi i będzie dom z duszą.
Love from lndonesia 😍

The light was on in the kitchen when he looked in the window, but was off when he went in.
If those was built in 1903 they can't destroy it. I like the wall part but really limited.
Not creepy it’s beautiful
I think it's a pretty nice old home, biggest renovation would be the kitchen and bathroom. I'd have to add a 1/2 bath on the main floor and a 3/4 bath in the basement.

Why are they not saving lights , doors? Anything that can be reused?
It's obvious that the house has recently been used as an office, probably for planning of the new construction, which is why the utilities are still on and alcohol beverages are still available and the wall paper are from the 80's.
Its a half decent house just need to rip out the rotting porch get rid of the dampness and clean it up a bit, , pure waste to knock it, the front hall has the best timberwork, good bits for salvage in it
Kitchen cabinets are knotty pine. The hardware on it is standard
The PO place where the refrigerator was I believe was the old breakfast nook in the kitchen and why that ceiling light fixture was there. There was some wall niche's in the side wall next to the refrigerator
Looks as if power works ! The oven was blinking on the time
Yeah if I could afford to restore it I definitely would I would just bring the bathrooms up to date
That little window is called a pass through.
Unfortunately once the roof goes that bad it's not long before the rest of the house is destroyed. I'm sure there was a lot of damage you couldn't see.
There is nothing creepy about this house.
Yes wallpaper
It’s so big a lot of rooms.
Makes me sick tearing these down, destroying history! What I would do to renovate one of these!
Should of brought your master blaster and played some creepy organ music with thunderstorms
Those old model TVs
used tubes back in the
early 1940s that Tv is antique.
they don’t make tubes for old
TVs they have to be
ordered online my Aunt had
an old b&w this thing was
humongous.
yes.
Wallpaper is the fleur de lei
You say that they are going to save and keep the house in the video description.....but verbally you ay they are tearing the house down. Which is it ?
There must not be any kind of historical protection at all in canada, what a shame!
You sure they're not trying to save the house to make a club house out of it?Our offices for the neighborhood.They cleaned it up a whole bunch just to tear it down
There isn’t anything very creepy there. A dirt floor basement with no windows is more creepy
That room has a flat roof. They leak often
Loving the house tour but had to mute my tv where I was first watching it as your mates loud voice was so annoying, you should have asked him to tone it down , he was aggravating with his booming voice at times drowning you out, would have been better to do it with out him there ,just saying his voice was really loud and annoying lol
A covered deck probably isnt rotton
Una moneda de dos pesos mexicanos
2 mexican pesos and a botle of Topo Chico

Too much wrong. Too many leaks and lots of black mold and probably knob and tube in the walls.
Cyberpunk!
Nothing creepy about an old empty house. Sad yes, creepy NO. Creepy closet, really? If there had been bones in there maybe. Good grief.
You should always wear a mask around mouse dtoppings and possible asbestos.
Haunted boooooooooooo 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻💀👻💀💀💀💀
