Sad Forgotten Farm House Full of Stuff Up North in New York Built in 1860
Ойын-сауық
This beautiful old farm house was built between 1850-1860 for a dairy farm up north in the mountains of New York. The house remained in the same family for nearly all of its life until the final family members passed away in the 1990’s and the house was boarded up. Now 25 years later the land is valuable as subdivision are popping up nearby and the house will most likely end up torn down in the next few years. Glad could document this neat old place and the few remaining outbuildings. Thanks for watching, like and leave a comment if you enjoyed. Thank you!

I’m 20 and I absolutely love history and old homes, I run a small antique booth during the summer. I wish more young people my age could see the importance in preserving and documenting our historic architecture that still stands.
I like that you don't move or disturb anything. Too bad others can't control themselves and thoughtlessly destroy things that are not theirs. I don't understand the motivation of people who vandalize these old houses and their contents. It's so much more interesting to just leave things as they are.

I agree. Some explorers mess with too much stuff and especially the people who destroy for no reason. I do get curious about the old newspapers or products left behind. I love the old advertisements and to see what was in the news from whatever era it was abandoned.
Thanks for always showing us the old barns that are still standing. Those are so interesting!

There’s smoke damage in that house. The bedroom furniture is called Waterfall. The matching chair and everything. Didn’t get a good look at the bed but my first thought was a waterbed. Would have liked to have known the dates on the newspapers below the jars and the expiration dates on the food. Great find as always!

Kappy when you mentioned Round Oak my ears perked up, since they were made n sold from my area. Round Oak was founded in 1871 by Philo Beckwith in Dowagiac, Michigan, his stoves are very collectible.

This is so sad !! Thank you again Kappy for another great find !! Take care and stay safe out there !!
What a pretty location, especially in the snow. Love all the wallpaper, the original hardware, the woodwork and the beautiful old barn. I can see this house being full of life in the 1920s before the Depression hit and a slow decline after that. No indoor bathroom so that cinderblock building had to be the outhouse or else it's fallen down. Thanks for the explore, Kappy!

When i was small, my mother had a wringer washer. I was so fascinated by it, and i put a piece of clothing into the wringer to see it go through. Well, it also took my whole arm in with it. It actually didn't hurt that much, but i was glad when i was rescued!! You always give me memories i have long forgotten.
A shame vandals got there first.I love the wall papers,and the cook stove.The wood furniture and doors just mostly need cleaned.Love these old houses,so much character.👍🇺🇸❤️
I’m always stunned as to the amount of crap dumped in these old homes. Just heaps of trash & junk.

Interesting design. Entirely above-ground foundation with no basement is pretty unusual for this area (for construction of that time) in my experience, but maybe I just haven't been looking in the right places. I am blown away by what attempts to heat this place must've looked like over the century+ that it was inhabited. The winter elements in upstate NY rarely hold back.

I’ve seen them all over upstate and in western NY though usually backed up to a hill, like some of the dual-level gambrel barns, where you can walk in on bottom level and on first floor level because of the elevation. There were at least two houses like this near where I grew up outside of Leroy

This place is a mess, but it's full of antique furniture and there are people who want antiques. I like them. Such beautiful real wood details throughout this home. Houses in the U.S. are not built like this anymore, I think this building "art form" is lost unfortunately.
That KeenKo thing in the basement that you commented on saying, "I wonder what that was" was the bottom part of an antique ringer washing machine. So cool! What an interesting place. It's definitely seen better days. Thank you again, Kappy, for this wonderful tour!

@user-zb6ke7gy7e yes I do remember that! Anything built before 1930-1920 had to have plumbing retrofitted since it wasn’t a thing before that (unless you were incredibly wealthy). Plus this place definitely didn’t have access to public water/ sewer systems since it appears to be very remote. If that one building wasn’t an outhouse.. there probably was one somewhere and it fell apart and is under the snow.

What a beautiful spot 164 years ago! Just imagine that view and the QUIET other than sounds of nature. (No highway sound) As a historian I'll also say what a tumultuous time that ALSO was When this prosperous family really had it going on to the tenth degree. Those people knew how to live off the land. I hope someone has the presence of mind to salvage the posts and beams in that barn! VERY VALUABLE.

When you first entered you said ( I wonder what that is ) referring to the galvanized metal wash pot. I believe that would be your inexpensive clothes wash pot. Those old blue Mason jars are worth a few dollars each and the right ones will bring $100's each
Rare that this has an outside porch on all three levels. I've never seen that.
Everything looks lovely with a lite covering of snow.
Good find ❤
Awesome old place
At 2:40 in this video you questioned what an object was that a 3 or 4 legged basin or tub. It was the lower half an old washing machine. It was most likely at one time mounted with a wringer mechanism consisting of 2 or 3 rubber rollers that the operator hand fed the laundry through to squeeze as much of the wash water out before hanging the laundry out to air dry. Never operated one myself but as a little kid of 5 or 6 I'd watch my grandmother spend hours at a time operating one these washing machines. Later model came with electric to run an agitator that was in the basin and an electrical motor that run the wringer rollers instead of having to hand crank the rollers. My grandmother's was the older version but she never complained that I was aware of. Thanks for your question. It has brought back memories of a time when I naive of the hardships this world has to offer and a woman that I guess I've held all the women in my life in comparison to. None have been in anyway equal to her.

The house itself was a very interesting layout as you exclaimed . I noticed the switches to turn the lights on and off and I remember those from when I was in high school looking after an older woman in her 90’s who lived in a home that was in her family for at least 100 years and lived in the same house with her husband and they had no children of their own but she had the same switches in her house and I remember her telling me that those very same switches were put in the house in the early 1900’s .
