I always think about the people who build these magnificent old homes.....those craftsmen are long gone but what they achieved is still around....incredible.

Thank you Kappy, because of you, you bring us into this bygone era of unique beautiful homes with amazing craftsmanship, built with pride and loved. You feed our imagination, thank you.

When craftsmanship was an art not just a job!!!

The windows in the upstairs bathroom are magnificent! Imagine soaking in a tub looking at that view! wow! Great find Kappy!

I have a bucket of key hole covers and other hardware…I would always take off doors before home demos, just kept them all…That was a decent one on front door. Edit.. gotta love all the huge bedrooms!

I agree with you Kappy, if the roof would have been replaced that house would be perfect today.

So sad that someone loved the house so much to spend the money to move it. One can only assume the owner died and the family had no desire to keep it up. A great video and such a beautiful house once loved! Than you..

Can’t understand why someone would have this huge house moved and then abandon it. Makes no sense.

I can't imagine moving a house that size without modern machinery, must have been a lengthy, massive project. Shame the roof leaked like that must have been beautiful at one time. That one upstairs room was almost perfect while the rest of the house falls down around it. That bathroom though, that view was amazing. Thanks, Kappy

Omg love this house. Big beautiful rooms. That pulley for the stairs! Another one that just breaks my heart!

This was once a grand old house. What a shame. It's last completely now. I love theses once beautiful places. 😍

I would imagine that the large living room with two fireplaces was originally two separate parlors since since there are two arched entrances from the front hallway into that room. This house has a wonderful feel to it. Radiator heat must have been added at some point along with the two bathrooms. And that upstairs bathroom is a gem.

When I was a kid I had a bed like that metal one only it was a full size. And that Attic. It could have been it's own room it was so big. Very nice. Thank you for the tour.

So sad to see such a lovely old house treated like this, kind of reminds you of how some old people are treated.

I swear Kappy, one of these days you're gonna go through the floor or stairs. I'm on the edge of my seat sometimes when you walk across soft floors or up decrepit stairs! Aside from that, WHAT a beautiful house!! I would give my eye teeth to have a bedroom like those! So big with such big windows and all that natural light coming in! So sad to see it in such a state.

Fascinating history on this house, I'll bet that whomever paid to move this home must have owned the field it was moved to, probably had plans to live in it. Most likely circumstances prevented that from happening maybe someone died or got sick and couldn't finish the property, sad to see it was left to rot for 40 years. It was a beautiful home at one time and a great layout on lovely open field.

Heartbreakingly beautiful. The spacious rooms, even the bathroom, so pleasing. You’re right. If only they’d kept up the roof. Thanks Kappy.

How in the world did they move a house that big? Laaaaawd! This was definitely a stunning home back in the day. I love the fireplaces in the upstairs bedrooms. Thanks Kappy for another beautiful find! Please be safe. 😊

Virginia has many magnificent abandoned homes. An excellent place to search. This was a very pretty home in it’s day. Lots of historical features in it.

Don't know if anyone commented on the 2nd floor bathroom but what a view. Magnificent. Thanks for the ride along Kappy!

How beautiful! I can only imagine soaking in that tub with that beautiful view. The natural lighting in that bathroom!! Also took my breath away when you stood beside the stairs and showed us the front door, the light coming through the windows around the door was beautiful, what a beautiful entry.. It's such a beautiful home, what a shame. It was cool seeing the old vent fan in the wall where the stove would have been. Thank you Kappy, I take so many favorite aspects of these homes and hold onto them hoping to use them if I get to build a home.

That's THE biggest window in a bathroom that I've ever seen!

I’ve actually witnessed three houses get relocated months apart and it was a sight to be seen. Very cool

At 9:06… What a beautiful little porch room. It feels like I remember it, like from a past life. If I lived in the area, I might set up a little chair, ottoman and table and go there to just read, write, meditate. My own secret, private place in an old abandoned house. :-) And those huge bedrooms with the lovely fireplaces! And the upstairs bathroom was amazing. Gorgeous house with a great layout.

What a beautiful, well-built home this was. You're right, if they had kept up the roof it would still be fine. It deserved a metal roof, oh well. The windows in the upstairs bathroom were gorgeous, all the windows and doors in the house were. The porch and entryway, too. Even the attic space was well made, I love attics so thank you for sticking your head up there even though there were vultures. Typical Kappy, "I don't know if I can make it upstairs" and then there he is. Is there anywhere I can look up more info on it, I'd love to know the back story. Thanks again, Kappy!

I am in for a great surprise with this video starting with the entry porch, wow what beauty this must have been. Amazing wood carving, now to watch the video. Thanks in advance of me seeing the wonderful features. Blessings from Maryland

What a beautiful grand house! It must have really been something in its day! Hey Kappy, every time you say"holy cow" I think of my father, he used to say it all the time. Don't hear that phrase any more except from myself. Keep up the good work!

Thankyou for showing us what would have been a super house & very comfortable during it's day. Also thankyou for taking care & looking after yourself.

Excellent! Camera work getting better and better. Thank you for this video!

The upstairs bathroom with huge windows was gorgeous!

This at one time must have been a grand house.

Nothing looks really new in this magnificent house...wonder how long it's been empty...if only the roofing would not give way...the views...Omagosh.

I really like this house, the bathroom large bathtub my favorite. Wonder why the home was moved???

What a beautiful old house.. it must have been really grand in it’s day!!

Another lost d beauty Kappy! Thanks for what you do. I always think about what great stories these old homes witnessed during their heyday. Very sad to see them left to ruin.

That front door! Those airy huge bedrooms! And that bathroom! The only thing I wish is that a view of that wonderful tub had appeared! Just a grand old house waiting to crumble and fade into the sunset…

I agree, it's definitely a very beautiful house. It's definitely unfortunate the roof suffered damage, considering it was moved and it's probably on a very solid foundation.

Please don’t stop showing old door knobs and wallpaper! I love them also!😃 Like you and Ruby! Thank you!

:( This beauty so needed to be restored and loved............

Beautiful old house in a gorgeous area 🏚️♥️

She was a Grand ole lady back in her day a lot of pride went into building this once beautiful house oh the stories she could tell .

You picked the perfect time of day to explore. The golden light and the fields and trees gave it an otherworldly feel. Thank you for a great video.

Hello Kappy, love the big rooms, lots of windows with pull up sashes and a fireplace to boot.f. Can't help feeling a little sad knowing how many memories this home held in it's day. I watched an explore video of an abandoned home couple years back and the attic was full of treasures. I just couldn't believe how many awesome finds were up there. Can't help thinking about the Dogmen hiding in those tree lines back in the distance. Virginia is full of them. Thanks for sharing my friend, love your channel.👍

What a wonderful old home! Such a shame to see it sit in a field to decay! Thank you for getting it on film before it’s totally gone!

That upstairs bathroom was awesome! So much light in the whole house! It would have beautiful in its day. The front entry was grand too!

Wow!! I can't believe you made it up those stairs, they looked terrifying. I am always amazed at the number of fireplaces in these beautiful old homes. Great explore Kappy. Thanks and enjoy your weekend :o)

The design of having a central hall that goes from front door to back door was a great solution to ventilation before days of air conditioning. The forerunner of a breezeway, I think.

I'm wondering if the house didn't come through the move as well as the movers hoped, rather than it having been moved to a field and then forgotten about. All the interior doors you tried were sticking as if everything was out of true; although it could have been wood swelled and distorted through damp - debris getting caught etc. Just that that's a heck of an investment/project to move it just to leave it.

Kappy ,,,man you've got it right on target once again buddy this grand old Southern lady is still gracious in hr old-age but when she was a young girl,,wow what a looker sh must have been,,,,,,,Ed from Southern Arizona

Wow the first floor looks terrifying. It really shows that this house is ready to almost cave in. My imagination if free flowing with imagery of how grand this house once was. An era gone by. It's so sad It's beyond saving 😪

Man you could only imagine the history in that place to bad you couldn't find it sooner

Of the many videos of abandoned buildings, I like yours because I can see the respect and admiration for decaying objects in your videos. I always look forward to watching your pure perspective. Hope the automatic translation works well.

I can imagine just sitting in the living room, or on the porch and just listening to the birds and looking at the scenery. I can feel my blood pressure going down!! Thank you for sharing this! beauty with us!

Wow. So they spent all that money, time etc to move it, then let it rot away🤔 The details on the front were so pretty. Such large bedrooms. I loved that wallpaper too. Thanks for getting upstairs. Pretty sketchy. I loved that huge window in the upstairs bathroom. What a view

Fantastic house! It's hard to believe that it was moved, but if it was, maybe explains the lack of basement stairs! Also, the metal mesh around the fireplace looked modern, could it be that the chimneys were rebuilt or repaired? (they all looked really clean and in great condition)

Was very pretty at once. That bathroom on 2nd floor had a fantastic scenery from the window. Attic could have had 2 more bedrooms up there!

And I love the simple, brick-lined fire places.

Bathroom upstairs with the incredible view was my favorite. Loved the wallpaper. Lots of rooms had fireplaces. Lovely house but left far too long. The deterioration of the roof and walls may have sealed its fate. Thank you for showing this house before it’s gone.

A key hole cover, two separate fire places in the same room is a first for me, built in shelves, spacious bedrooms, quite a view from the second floor bathroom. This place must’ve been pretty special for them to relocate it and understandingly so. Thank you Kappy 👍😊

It's still beautiful. Wow. I still see potential... Why do people that can stop it let things like this happen? Why aren't these houses saved?

That HUGE window in the bathroom. WOW! Nice sized bedrooms. Once the roof gets compromised it is over. A sad demise for a once beautiful home.

It’s springtime & the birds likely have nests in there, & are being protective! That big window in the upstairs bathroom is really cool!

You’ve shared so many of those metal/enamel kitchen sinks that remind me so much of my childhood that I’d love to have one again. Looks like south central VA maybe? My aunt says she remembers her, my mom, and my third aunt sleeping together in a bed similar to that. Amazing! Thanks for sharing. ❤️

Stunning to see just how many abandoned homes are scattered across the globe. Makes you wonder why

This is definitely a favorite of mine to see. Beautiful spacious rooms. Great layout. Nice porch. Nice window look all the way to the attic. Besides it decay it is not graffitied or left with junk inside so you can really imagine just how stunning it once was.

Wow what a beautiful Old girl. Shame that it's been left to rot. Thanks for sharing Kappy

It’s so cool that every bedroom had its own fireplace. You’d never see that now days, but I suppose there’s no need for a fireplace every bedroom now.

Would have been a neat house if it had been kept up. Also lovely area in the middle of nowhere!

Oh ,Kappy I don't think those stairs and upstairs are safe. So sad someone had it moved then just let it rot. Thank you for sharing this house with us, it has some beautiful woodwork in it, and that front door is gorgeous.❤️❤️

I wish I was a bird 🐦 I'd live there if I could. Even in her final days she's a heartbreaker.Thank you for another great video

I like the vulture stepping out of the attic window in the beginning.

What intricate & cool details on & around the front door! Oh I WISH money was no object ! I would go around buying & restoring cool old house that were salvageable ! Not only would I preserve architectural history, but creating local jobs and supporting local businesses would be happening too! Talk about a WIN WIN!! And OF COURSE I would hire you Kappy to shoot “the before” & “after”! (I better remember to buy one of these big jackpot tickets lol)

Definitely a “heavenly view” from the upstairs bathroom! 👍🏽❤️

Hi Kappy It’s a shame that they loved this house enough to move it but then forgot it and left it to sit and rot away. This house has plenty of decay. I’m glad you couldn’t go in that basement, that would have been soo soo creepy. Those steps just rotted away. This house has sure seen better days. Kappy this is a good explore. Thank you for sharing it with us. Until next time stay safe and well. I was just wondering if Ruby is well. We haven’t seen her in a while. She always brightens up these videos.🏠

This is one of my favorites of yours. PLEASE Stop going by yourself. It’s not safe for you for multiple reasons. Just think about it!

I loved this house Kappy and the beautiful location with the sun reflecting on the walls made beautiful still photos so glad it had no graffiti and all the birds wild!!

Those door knobs with the lock box type must be a Southern thing cuz I have never seen them here up North. Great find as usual Kappy.

I wonder if this house was ever lived in after it was moved? It obviously had some updating with the radiator heating and electrical outlets. It's not insulated, so a fireplace in every room would have had a hard time keeping it warm, it looks like 2 radiators might have had trouble too. I'm guessing it was moved there with the intention of fixing it up. I didn't notice any 'newer' wiring, and the old ceramic insulators and wiring would have needed replacing 50+ years ago. Thanks Kappy, keep bringing the videos!

Wow. Beautiful big house. Loved the entry. Lost track of how many fireplaces. Some birds, but no vultures!! Lol. Thanks Kappy! ✌️

Really loved this home, especially that view from the bathroom.

Really sad nobody rescued it before all the water damage. Would be very difficult now. It must have been stunning originally.

Thank you for taking me alone! Such a shame to see such beauty neglected.

Wow! 1855. It’s so big! It looked to me like a fire had been at the top of that staircase. I loved the wallpaper in the bathroom and the view from there too. Pretty cool.

Thank you Kappy for another most epic adventure!

Another awesome old place. At least it appeared that someone was taking some of the better woodwork and the fireplace. The porch rail pile on the porch, and the loosened fireplace, is what gives me that impression. Someone found the perfect spot for a house, then moved their favorite house to the spot. Another wonderful job Kappy! Keep them coming! And thanks for taking me along!

Gorgeous old home in such a sad state. I would love to be able to afford to buy an old home and bring it back to life. 😢

This house was huge and beautiful . 😍

Love it!! Thank you!

It would be my dream to redo a house like this. I love watching your videos. And I am glad you don't take chances on sketchy floors. But I still talk to you and tell you to be careful. ❤️

Wow that front door and frame are awesome...wish someone would have taken care of it...bet it was a beauty in her day...sad. Thanks for sharing!!

Going through that tall grass I keep thinking ticks, ticks ,ticks snakes!! HaHa

I like how you find the oldest houses, liked to have seen this one in its day. I belive the basement stairs weren't reinstalled when the house was moved. Nice tour! 👍👍

It’s too bad there wasn’t really much of anything left in there to offer any clues as to when this once beautiful house had last been inhabited. I mean, it could’ve been anywhere from 30 to 60 years judging by the level of rot and decay. Thanks again sharing. 👍

So sad to see it decay. Must of been gorgeous!!

Such a beautiful house what a real shame.

You know it was really beautiful at one time. The fancy front was awesome, shame Mother Nature decided she wanted it back. 😢Ty for the tour, Kappy.

Love this house. A beauty in it's day.thx 4 sharing,

Ugh. This house isn’t that old in the big scheme of things. Disgusting how it has wasted. Sad. Thanks Kappy!

It's in a beautiful setting. Too sad that the house was left to rot away like this.

Hi Kappy! What a lovely home this is and once was, every room with a fireplace, all the windows and the green shutters for the windows, thank you for this wonderful urban exploring, always an awesome adventure, can hardly wait for the next video, enjoy your weekend, hello from Orange County, CA 🙂👋🏚️
