The abandoned 1800’s house was actually built in 1838, making it almost 200 years old. The single family home was 2-stories tall and had 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The main front entrance into the home was covered under an old dilapidated porch. A small creek runs adjacent to the property and even flows underneath the garage area of the home. The interior of the home was quite extraordinary as it was loaded with antique furniture and personal belongings of the last family that lived in the house. The main front entrance led into the dining room area. This dining room area had multiple antique cabinets that each contained various sets of fine China, porcelain tea sets, and imported plates and glassware. On the wall in between two of the cabinets and above an old rocking chair, was 2 vintage printer drawers that were being used to display a collection of small animal statues and other knick knacks. The kitchen which was located right off the dining room featured a vintage stove with other outdated appliances. The living room, which was located directly across from the kitchen and through the dining room, was absolutely incredible. The living room wallpaper was weathered and torn throughout. There most impressive finding in the living room was the antique wicker wheelchair that was just sitting in the center of the room just waiting to be used again. Surrounding this wicker wheelchair, was other beautiful antique furnishings, such a wooden hutch with an old portrait on top, a marble, a wooden, hand-painted, vintage dresser with a clay jug and twin candlesticks on top, an intricate wood table with a smooth marble table-top with some outdated books and an ancient lamp on display. Next to the marble table, there was also another wicker style chair and a unique hand-carved wooden corner table that had various antiques on display. There was also a little back room located off the living room that contained shelves loaded with more antiques, glassware, books, and other knick knacks. Access to the second floor, was also located off the living room area. The stairway going to the second floor was quite impressive itself as it was all wooden with more intricate hand-carved details leading all the way up. As you came upstairs to the second floor, this is where you would have found the master bedroom. The master bedroom also did not disappoint. It featured a wooden, four-post bed frame with an old oil-painting hanging above the headboard. Also located in the master bedroom was a massive old dresser with an oval mirror attached, an aged rocking chair, an outdated green armchair, and an old-fashioned dry sink with curved towel rack. Various other paintings and even old family portraits still hung on the walls throughout the master bedroom. To finish off the amazing upstairs, the old-school bathroom next to the master bedroom, contained an antique claw-foot bath tub. The abandoned 1800’s house was one hell of an explore. Not only was the actual house nearly 200 years old, but the amount of vintage, retro, and antique furniture was incredible to experience and document. We truly hope that someone or something will help save this beautiful house from further neglect and deterioration. Rest In Paradise Rebecca. You are truly loved and missed by everyone.
