I have almost house envy. Love that it wasn't gutted and you have so much of the original woodwork and flooring. Oh and the windows! I have what's called a Folk Victorian that was butchered in so many ways. I've bring back what I can as time and money permits.

Now that’s when they made houses instead of the crappy houses they make nowadays.

I love Queen Anne homes! They are classic, traditional and have lasted through time. It just shows you how well craftsmanship was then compared to now, the homes they build today are falling apart after 10 years.

That icebox is a treasure! I've never seen one intact in a Victorian house before. Love your humor also😁

What a beautiful home! I love all the old woodwork in the house and the large rooms with high ceilings. I hope you can keep the original features such as its tile floor. The enclosed porch is beautiful and will be very nice to be inside away from bugs. They don't build homes like this anymore what a beautiful house it will be for you.

What a beauty! I wish this was the way houses were today still

Gorgeous house! I am not a fan of open floor plans so it's refreshing to see doors which open up to separate rooms. My vote is for opening up the wrap around porch. You are very fortunate that the beveled glass and art glass windows are all still intact. The vintage ice box, once cleaned, may be worth a lot of money to a collector if you end up selling it. The outside space is a gardener's dream. I'm a new subscriber and look forward to watching the personal touches you add to the interior home and yard.

She is gorgeous! Congratulations!

Beautiful house. I love the stained glass and the wood work throughout the house also the flooring in the bathroom.

I live in Fl. where the land is flat and the houses are stucco squares. What a fabulous house and property, I like the view from the back of the property too, it looks old timey and clean.

Beautiful home, I owned a 1897 Queen Anne,it was pretty original like yours. Our kitchen had the original wooden countertops,and original cabinets that went to the ceiling. We had 14 ft ceilings downstairs and 12 ft upstairs. Enjoy your home!😊

I have house envy. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the original features of your new home.

It’s a beautiful home.

Greetings from Fairfield Iowa! Our 1896 Queen has a lot of similar features. Congrats on your new home

What a find!!

Thank the lord that they did not paint the beautiful wood trim through out the house.

Beautiful details...wood floors, beveled glass, lots of windows... would love to own a victorian home ❤

Love ,love this house! So beautiful on the inside , a lot of woodworking, I love the wood but,is hard to keep dusted. I know my home has a lot of woodwork also. Your wife is going to need a cleaning woman 😅👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👋

What a beautiful house! The woodwork & floors are absolutely gorgeous! My husband & I were wondering where it is located?

Omg that woodwork! So lucky to have that 💓

So well preserved! Complete with a horror movie basement. What more could you ask for? Please post updates. Great commentary.

Nice vintage home that will benefit from some TLC.

Absolutely Stunning May the Good Lord Bless and keep you and your beautiful home.

Lovely property. Hope got a good deal. You have a great deal of work to do. Looking forward to see what you do.

Love the house, looks like it’s in good shape. Congratulations!

How great is this housr!! The flooring, woodwork and glass are amazing. I enjoyed your walk-thru. Good luck with everything. Take your time and do it right!

Hi, neighbors! Up here in NE Iowa in an 1898 Victorian!

Absolutely stunning!!

The basement could be where the kids/grandkids hang, put a WE box down there and a mini fridge... Well, you know where they are. :) m

I cannot imagine taking all that on. So much to clear out and clean, repair, replace. I’m tired already. But, I am cheering you on!

That house is downright GORGEOUS! Never saw a wall like that going up the stairs. At least they didn't paint the woodwork. Were the cabinets in the basement once in the kitchen? I'd refinish or clean up that old radio just as a decorating item. My grandparents had one when I was a child. Good sized basement. The only thing thing I can see can that would this house more PERFECT would be to have it sitting on 80 acres! LOL! congratulations!

Greetings from Germany. All the best in the new house, I hope I can watch many more videos. Good luck and see you soon Greetings Maria

Beautiful house.. how lucky you are!! Best wishes..enjoy your new home

Nice house

Congratulations Robert. Cool house.

Beautiful home

Wood work and floors are stunning ...❤ windows ❤❤..why will those beautiful rooms be offices? Love it..

Not my style of house, BUT it is really lovely! Someone did a lot of work before you purchased. You have much to do. Subscribed to watch your journey. 🤗

Please keep making videos as you move in and make it your home. I just subbed.

happy for you, you well have a lot of fun, i know i would.

I love it! My vote is your office on the 2nd floor! In case you're taking a survey. Happy for you and yours Bartz! 💙

Great video 📹

What a lovely home! Can't wait to see what you do with it. Be very glad your wife is kind. I *might* have been tempted to jump out at you when you were filming your basement, lol!

Lots of very cool things going on in this house

She is gorgeous!!!The woodwork is amazing. I think I heard something a out the dirt fog poor in the basement had something to do with controlling humidity in those older homes.

It's amazing! You could make an ensuite bedroom where your wife's office is going to be, for when you get older and don't want to go up the stairs. I hope you don’t cover the wood with paint 😊

That beautiful sink in your basement ❤️ Hope you plan on using her😊

We have a Queen Anne Victorian with a porch like yours but it's NOT enclosed. If I could change one thing about our house, I would get an enclosed porch because you can't enjoy it outside with all the mosquitoes. I live in Wisconsin.

The basement looks like the place where Norman Bates put his mother.

I wonder why the basement was built with separate rooms.

I have worked on a queen in Santa Cruz Cali looks to be in good shape please be careful with the woodwork and if you really have hardwood doors your very lucky most foe finished pine doors the painters were very good back then

Really enjoyed your video tour. It appears you have a lot of work to do on your house in the future. How do you feel about that? Will you hire contractors or are you handy around the house?

Any updates on house?

No servants' stairs? m

But the majority of it is wood! Brick built houses are better, if they are built properly and with top grade materials they will last a lot longer than the wood ones.

Radiator heat not radiant heat, two totally different things

Photographer moves the camera too much quickly and makes a person dizzy and kind of sick to your stomach.

Is it haunted?
