I love exploring abandoned places. There was an old shack in the woods that I found about 15 years ago. It belonged to the 98 year old woman who ran a store just up the road but she no longer lived in it. Everything looked like it was frozen in time. Dishes, fiurniture, dolls, blankets. Omg you name it. But when she passed away, her grandchildren ransacked it and took everything. It was so beautiful at one time.

A beautiful house. The great room looked almost like Gothic architecture. Amazing that it is just sitting there. 🐼

So beautiful. It’s a little creepy considering the history, but I can see the building can remade into a school or a restaurant/bar. Sad most of the stuff were left to rot. Generosity could have saved the place.

I would love to go into a place like that and straighten it up so it looks like it might have when it was originally abandoned. Get the trash out, vacuum the floors, dust, clean the windows. etc... I guess that's not popular. It might make some good before/after videos.

I agree with you. In all of my years watching abandoned place series, I have observed only 2 explorers who take the time to bring back a few homes back to their original glory. Of course, this is after the hoodlum low life's go inside and dishonor and disrespect property that doesn't belong to them. The majority of explorers I've watched walk over family photos rather than bother picking them up. Then they leave doors and windows opened so the elements and birds can become trapped and the elements further destroy the home. Makes me ill to see these lowly character attitudes.

The oven is pronounced Therm-ah-door. I’ve seen several Thermadors in old mansions. Cool explore!

Liszt, Franz Liszt was the artist on the albums. He was a Hungarian composer. Mostly piano! :) Really great video, thank you. This is one of the best tours of an abandoned home I've seen. The great room is so beautiful. Too bad it fell into such disrepair. Gorgeous house.

It is usually spread out over generations, I think...foundation check first, even better a building inspection, roof repair then securing doors and fixing windows. Getting utility systems operating. Clear brush. Then the inside, general cleaning, repair, decor. Landscaping, outdoor living, food garden farm. Good friends, beer and pizza goes a long way. =0)

That's a major brand of Wall Oven going to say maybe the 1980's era. Thermatronic II BY THERMADOR. But could be mid 1970's but is a higher end Brand of kitchen major Appliance.

Wow… yep. Thermador appliances today are tens of thousands of dollars. Also, I noticed the brief moment the camera panned past the built-in refrigerator. That was probably a SubZero fridge. Not sure if Thermador made built-in refrigerators back in the 70s like SubZero did. And it looked like the refrigerator door had been removed and stacked over to the side. This would have definitely been considered a high-end kitchen decades ago. SAD…

About the heads near the ceiling: Henry the VIII started that little tradition. He wanted all who came to visit to know that he had eyes and ears everywhere so he knew what everyone was saying about him. That's how they got the name "eavesdroppers". This was after his demeanor changed and people had to walk on eggshells around him. Just a wee bit of historical trivia 😊

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ❣️❣️❣️ I SIMPLY CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THESE OLD BEAUTIFUL PLACES ARE NOT PRESERVED FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS TO WITNESS AS PROOF OF SUCH BEAUTIFUL ARCHITECTURE AND MASTER CRAFTSMANSHIP HAVING BEEN EVEN POSSIBLE !!!

That's beautiful! I would have loved to come across something like this while urbexing, but I don't think there are places like this in Norway. The furniture and everything being so pristine after all this time. Just amazing. I hope someone will buy the place and move in, it shouldn't just sit there to rot.

I don't understand how someone can just find all these nice abandoned places that still hold a ton of valuables and furniture? Makes you wonder why it's all still left behind in every video I seen so far?

I,m from Philadelphia I love watching

That wagon wheel makes me think it's a hunting lodge for the elite and the very very wealthy

It would not surprise me if this was once a church. The specific arch of the windows and the balcony overlooking the main room. That would have been for the choir and a piano or organ. Those closets across the wall were for the choir robes. That main room and the cellar are original. Everything else was an add on later. Did you notice the live edge wood? The ax marks on those big beefy beams too. Very aclectic although it looks like a Tudor from the outside. I believe you mentioned Mr. Smith was going to be clergy of some sort but chose the path of elderly care. All the statues make a lot of sense to me. The law books were very interesting. Old. Perhaps his father and or mother were first generation immigrants. Either dad practiced law or was just interested in it due to being an immigrant. The house likely reminded them of their country. That therm-a-door oven is high end for sure. Someone is mowing the lawn. Lol. Also looks like someone attempted to start renovating. A sad yet inspiring story. Clergy generally devote themselves to God, a life of poverty and helping others. He found his calling. I’m sorry it never came to fruition.

You had stated in the intro that he went to the seminary. That would explain all the religions artifacts. This house is beautiful. It should be on some kind of registry of historic places. Great video. Follow up PLEASE?🙏🙏🙏
