Yep... These details can always be used in another house!

Sad isn't it! All these old places could be bnd😭 or something for community activities and social gatherings.

@@mrskingkong1485 With so many homeless out there, I would think the governments could use some of these places.

Yeah, I was thinking that same thing! Such craftmanship and beauty is seldom seen these days! I'd have worked hard to at least save those two unique fire places. It is very sad!

@@puca7908 partly it's that these were the houses of slave masters or at least Jim crow planter's and many people want to forget it or at least not celebrate them...

You’re not alone at all! I live in Georgia and that house looks familiar but the style is not uncommon. I’m wracking my brain trying to figure out if I’ve driven past it before. Lol

Drone???

I'll go.

Nope, you are NOT alone! The house drips with grandeur and true Southern charm for sho

I'm in Georgia too. I wonder if this home is on the national registry of endangered houses

I agree, it should of been restored, just think of all the history this house must of had.

Cappy, gee whiz ,you could have brought a ladder! Lol

@@brianandlindafairchild1237 after I fell thru the floor and sliced my leg open I figured I had pushed my luck enough lol

@@urbanexploringwithkappy1773 Oh wow. Some things are just not worth it! Glad you're okay!!!

@Laurie Granted it would be nice for all of the features you mentioned to be salvaged. But if they had been, we wouldn't have been able to see how beautiful they were in their original location.

I agree. Those mantles, door trims and even the good boards are treasures.

@jude jackson yes it probably is however it is still history.

@midnitesquirldog1 same thing down here near Charleston, S.C. its so sad that this home wasnt restored...

@midnitesquirldog1 Im in Michigan and we really dont have anything much in this style with the pillars and all. Lots of old farm houses but not much quite like these.

This is really a very rare find because most plantation houses here in Georgia were not “Tara”, most of them were simple farm houses and most all of them are gone. Very few survived Sherman’s men and even less the hands of time. There is an old plantation down the road from me and it’s about the size of your average two story house, and not the “Tara” antebellum style. That was something that surprised me from the time I was a kid and saw Gone With The Wind and then as I fell in love with the history of my home state; I expected them to look like Tara and most simply didn’t. Those were from the very elite and wealthy plantations. Most were what we would consider middle class. I do have one tidbit of GWTW trivia that I got from a descendant of Margaret Mitchell. Tara was based on Margaret’s grandparents plantation in Lovejoy Ga and it was called the Fitzgerald Plantation. It’s been gone way before I came a long but it was interesting because my friend (much older than me) did spend time there before it was gone.

@@LifeMostSouthern Very interesting! I love the looks and style of them. I guess its the upper and lower portche's and pillars that really sets them off and gives the that look.

Lots of Balls with beautiful belles and gents, and music. Didn't mention slave quarters with this place (?).

In a perfect holy universe, the deed to these houses and properties should have been legally transferred to the people who created the family's wealth, maintained, cleaned, cooked in this home and worked crops every single day. It would seem only fair after sleeping in substandard slave quarters near this grand house. And some of these working children were actually half siblings of the wealthy children living in decadent luxury.

My thoughts exactly 👍👍

Excellent idea

Yyeess!! Be careful!

@@davidschaadt3460 usually something I expect from a Scooby Doo episode or a horror movie. For that matter my point is these buildings should never been made in the first place.

You were very lucky to live in a historical place. It's a shame what happened to it.😥

Thank you for the concern! Just a couple stitches and still managed to keep filming 😂

Wasn’t too bad! Glad this wasn’t my last video tho😂 thanks for watching!

And immediately after he fell through the floor, two ads that you not could skip through come on, so I had to annoyingly wait for them to finish to find out if he had hurt himself during the fall or not.

@@kyliepechler Dang it KZfaq you can be so frustrating.

@@kyliepechler I don’t even control where the ads are in the video, it’s crazy how automated KZfaq has become😂

Yep I’m alright just a couple stitches and good as new, only my one leg went through up to my knee but I managed to keep filming after and get my outside shots, didn’t think I should show my bleeding leg😂

I would really love to read more about what you know about this grand old house! I find what you wrote quite interesting!

ML. I find it very strange that there doesn’t appear to be a second staircase as well.

The old linoleums designs were put on a thick tar paper back.

I believe floor paper was an actual thing before linoleum. They used it like a rug, typically in the kitchen to protect the wood floors. It was usually hand painted I believe.

@@NinfaCarpentergeorgia198 floor cloths. Came back as a dyi for a while in the 80/90s.

The boards themselves were practically decayed to an almost paper like state too.

Believe he said 1850s at beginning

@@ddylla85 it was in the description box,kappy wrote when he looked it up it was from 1920

I agree, the house looks older than 1920s. A house like that if it was built in the 1920s would have had electrical and plumbing preinstalled. But in this house it was clearly added later. A house built in the 1920s would have had a heating system installed. But this house just had a fireplace in every room for heat. That was typical for houses built in the 1800s. Plus the style of the house just looks way older than 1920s.

max,yes I'm not an expert, but just the moldings

@@MaxZomboni hi max,yes I agree,that house just by the moldings,and the hardware u could tell it was much older than that,and the fireplaces also and the extra bathrooms,something definitely not from that time,good vibes from it

I thought the same thing! TARA! even the colors were the same!

Because of the flat roof.

@@loritanner4478 what flat roof?

When the roofs start leaking ,it really creates havoc.

@Tina ~ ~ certainly agree with your numbers!

He said 1850 at the beginning of the video

Well pre civil war would be before 1861.

Much appreciated that’s all I’ve ever tried to do! Documenting these incredible old American homesteads before they are lost too time! Here’s my face in the last 20 seconds of this video! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y7h1qd2Iy67Jlac.html

@@urbanexploringwithkappy1773 OoooooMyGosh!!!! You are so cute!!!!!! And so young to love all this history! I'm always so impressed by people's knowledge and love of preserving history! You should actually think about compiling pictures and facts about the houses you visit and putting them in book form! What a great coffee table piece that would be!!!

@@urbanexploringwithkappy1773 Kappy, have you ever considered making a large coffee table book with some of the incredible explores you have done? I'll bet it would be well received, especially by those of us who explore, vicariously, along with you! The drone idea sure seems to be a good one!

Most likely an owl, owls and crows are mortal enemies. I've got a pair of barred owls in my yard and murder of crows give em heck at least once a week
