Urbex: Large Lone ABANDONED FARMHOUSE

*Update*: This beautiful farm house has been demolished, unfortunately. You would never know anything was there. I'm just glad I was able to explore in time for some footage beforehand as this is all we have left of it now.

November 2012, a holding company had placed an application to demolish any properties on this land. So this house will be demolished. The land itself is for sale for $4,500,000 CAD for 40 acres zoned for industrial use. While exploring, I noticed there was a newspaper left behind with the date of November 8, 2012, so it hasn't been abandoned very long. I guess being close to the city wouldn't take long for vandals to ruin the place. There was no mold damage.

Thanks for subscribing, liking and sharing! :)

This house is still able to be fixed up.
Why do people just leave and do nothing.
I love your work please keep them coming.

Demolished?  Poo!  Nice place.  The basement was eerie though.

I agree with Sue Yoxall just below me, that breaks my heart to see this awesome old house erased from history. Imagine the lives lived in this house. The children, the laughter, love and celebrations as well as the deaths and grief. I would love to have lived in this house it really is beautiful. Have fun and be safe!! Thanks for taking the time to show these forgotten properties to us! Do you have a treking buddy? You really shouldn't go out into these places alone. Anything could happen and it might be safe to have someone there to have your back.

Once upon a try to think of the excitement of the family and their new home. Thank you for time gone by for us romantics

Hi, just wondering what camera was used.

Also, only because I was criticized by builders, but the window 'sill' is out side, the window 'stool' is inside. The back stairs were meant for a servant or family only. The window sections on the floor are 'sashes'. The handcuffs or Clamps in the medicine cabinet is a 'escutcheon plate' which covers the hole of the waste pipe behind the P trap of the sink. The holes in the floor were where "registers' were, which were likely cast iron and ornate.

Just to let you know, the house's you see with the stairs going up off the kitchen is always the servants room. The owner always used the master stairs with the rest of the family. We lived in a house with 26 rooms in it and it had a maids and butlers quarters in it. The rooms were gigantic! The dinning room had a trap door in the floor where the well was at for in the house. It also had one in the kitchen and also on the back porch. Oh and it had an old out house with three holes. Oh and old houses like this never had indoor plumbing! That's right! You used a chamber pot at night with a lid. Then in the morning the maid carried the pots outside and dumped them and cleaned them and put them back where they went up stairs. Cool job! Another great vid.

What a terrible loss of a beautiful house. I think it should have been incorporated as office space or a frontend for whatever industrial stuff to go around it.

Another sad one, I hate demolitions for projects that more often than not, take years to be made (the people could have more time) or nothing is done whatsoever.  Great explore, at least we got to see it before it dissapeared, thank you.

So sorry that the house and outbuildings are gone. You had commented when in one of the outbuildings that it may not havr been a farm - no barn.  I think it is more than likely that it was a farm, just the barn was missing.  Thanks again for filming your explorations.  I would never have seen most of these places. .  Regards, R Bryant

So glad you caught this beautiful house before they destroyed it.

[SpiritMagic]

Wow...what a shame this got demolished. It was such a beauty and so full of character. Thanks for sharing it!

[Liutgard]

That was a gorgeous house! It may not have been a farmhouse- it was very stately, and looked like it was built for a family 'of substance'. The architecture says 'I am important!' rather than 'I am your friendly farmer'. Oh- and that sink? Not new. That was original, and the style was from the 'teens. (Dad was an architect- I know more about architectural history than is good for me...)

What a nice old house, it's so nice to see a house with no graffiti.

[elliewebster]

It's a real shame that vandals trashed this place so much, it would have been a really nice house in its day! Another nice video Tiki, keep up the good work!

[MegaMouse]
