It’s such a shame to see these homes so vandalized. They were once beautiful homes. Thanks Kappy!

Who else hits the like button before you even watch the video because you know it's going to be good.....as always 😊

For the age of the house, I’m surprised that there were no fireplaces. Upstate New York gets pretty chilly in the winter. Would love to have seen this place brand new. I betcha it was gorgeous. Thanks Kappy!

What a bright, cheerful home this must have been in its heyday. All that wonderful sunshine streaming in. Love that cupola. I write, and the cupola would be a fantastic writing studio. Lots of shame on all those who defaced this house!

I grew up, in Upstate New York. Looks like maybe Finger Lakes region? Gorgeous house. It had a nice vibe to it. Sad to see it in decline.

WOW what a showplace this must have been, too bad it wasn't preserved before it was too late! I can only imagine what the entry looked like with that curved staircase, the whole house/barn sure is a showcase of pride of workmanship. Such a once grand farm must have belonged to an affluent family, the house looks to have been added on to with the stone/brick foundation, different staircases, and odd one stair step-ups. Sadly vandals seem to have a sixth sense when it comes to find historic things to ruin. Thanks Kappy, see you next time!

Lovely old home. So many staircases & rooms. Hate when people remodel & make apartments in these old houses. She was a beauty in her day. Thx 4 documenting her life Much luv Carry on

What an interesting old house, looking beyond the graffiti it must have been glorious in it's day with it's beautiful matching barn. The staircase was fantastic. Kappy, you must cover vast distances to find these amazing old houses, hard for us Brits to have a concept of how large the States are but I appreciate your dedication. The very best channel for these fascinating places. Respect to you❤

The house has so much character !! It's a shame that no one has tried to restore it.

I really like the downstairs floor plan. And I love the windows. It has great lighting

Kappy, you’re the best! Was looking for the awesome couple on the roof until I realized you said cupola! Keep on keeping on!

What a timeless beauty, avoiding that vandal mess.. Being up state New York, surprised there are no fireplace's.. Also surprised no entrance to the thing ( sorry my spelling of it is horrid ), on the roof of the barn.. If I was rich & a 100 years younger would so love to restore a house like that...

I didn’t notice any fireplaces in this house. Weird.

Oh Kappy. I have such a love/hate relationship with you!! You do such a magnificent job at showing us some very wonderful homes and yet it disturbs me to see how kids shame these once beautiful family homes. I wish I knew the total story behind this one. Very wealthy farmers I’m sure. Thank you Kappy 🙏🙏

Hi! Thanks! My husband is in woods a lot. He will find these big trees. Usually a old home place. Always chimney is still left. Always wonder about the people who used live there. 🤗🥰

I Recall Seeing Old Home's Like That Back In The 60's And Playing As a Kid. You Cant Find One Now Day's.

Hey Kappy! Very cool old place. Loved the curved staircase. The "windy" room was great, but I wonder why they ran the chimney so strangely? Love all the large lumber used back then. Thanks for getting us a look inside it all! Stay safe. ✌️

Oh wow , now that’s an OLD LADDER, with the skinny rounded rungs; they are the WORST LADDERS! Our old family home ( a Tudor built in 1927) had a few of those old TALL ladders with the rounded rungs , to be used when the storm windows had to be taken down in the Soring, & the summer screens were hung up. And vice-versa back in the Fall.. and OH it was a joyous day when my Mom finally had the old windows replaced with new windows that matched the style of the house, & had the screens attached! NO more rounded skinny runged ladders-they REALLY HURT your feet if you had sneakers on, and wearing boots was almost worse, your footing was hard to keep . lol your videos always seem to spark some memories, almost every house I’ve ever lived in, has been vintage!

That house is fabulous even though its deteriorating! Its layout design is unique. The craftsmanship wonderful! It's a shame to abandon such a beautiful place.

This is truly a shame, 😢 One of the most beautiful one of a kind homes, reminiscent of Andrew Jackson Dowling's designs from Country Houses. I truly think I've dreamed about this one❤Thanks for finding this one!

Did you notice the first floor had baseboard heat. I think they were living there and trying to remodel at one time. Another fantastic home tour , thanks Kappy. 👍

Very neat house. I am surprised at no fireplaces. The barn is so huge it's a shame it's left to ruin. Great find Kappy; as always.

Kappy, some of those staircases reminded me of M. C. Escher prints from lst century. That Cupola staircase was a nail biter, but then that whole place looked like it was in various stages of returning to the earth. Great old place with a frighteningly uncertain future, but isn't that the way with everything now days. Well it looks like the barn will be the first to collapse in on itself. Sad. Love your work Kappy, and the addition of nature, and other potential sites into your videos is a wonderful addition. I wish you A Glorius Week Kappy, You Sir Deserve It!

This was an awesome find! I'll bet that entrance hall was magnificent in its glory days. Thanks for another fun explore.

you always film with utmost respect and careful attention to detail, Kappy. TY for bringing us so much history and information. Your vids present with so much dignity, it sometimes makes it hard to watch other Urban Exploration vids that indulge foremost in drama. TY for these quality explorations.

Gosh, those stairs had me sweating! You are fearless!

BEAUTIFUL! I absolutely love this home Kappy. If you look past the graffiti, you can see what was. Odd I didn’t see any fireplaces? I would think this are gets rather cold. Thanks Kappy for bringing this to us and for your amazing attention to detail. The respect you show to these old homes is second to none. As always, stay safe.♥️

Sad part Kappy There's a lot of homes like this In UP state NY, I worked on a Milking farm My hole Young life, In Oneonta, Otsego county, My Brother Lives there now, and has For 38 years, Beautiful country.Thats where I saw Big foot for the First time at 14 years old. It was in the news paper the Next day Headlines Bigfoot stop school bus.1970 ,Great Videos Kappy.

At first I couldn’t bear to see the devastation inside, but looked on this one again and could see past the scribblings that don’t deserve history, and then proceeded to see it in a better imagined way. What a fun,fabulous farm this could have been and to also just have new drafts of this place and in a hilly location, and it would be a treasured place❗️Thanks again Kappy!

Apparently, there are a lot of people with too much time on their hands based on the amount of graffiti I'm seeing. I'd like to put them to work doing something useful, like building for Habitat for Humanity instead of destroying property! Thanks for going down the back stairs!

Everything is so well made in that house. Very sturdy it seems. That's a gorgeous, well built, very large house. I really like it. Thanks for sharing

Thanks Kappy! Lots of interesting features, love the windows, it's sad that it's been so trashed.

Thankyou for sharing.

Vandals have no place here. I'm betting that when they are old enough to know what idiots they are, they will regret being what they are now! I would hope...I used to go through old buildings to explore but it never occurred to me to destroy them just to write my name or punch through a wall. Very sad. Beautiful house, regardless, and it's always amazing when the old wood outlives the actual house, and I love the old wallpapers. I wish there were pictures from before. Beautiful house,and it almost looks like it could be restored!!! Thank you Kappy!!

Kappy, what a grand ole home and barn. Makes you kind of sick inside that it sits all alone while people pass by without someone with the funds to save her before she's too far gone. Then again, it might be the result of a family feud where pride or anger has gotten in the way and the house suffers. Who knows!!

A sweeping main staircase. Too bad the railings were gone. The cupola is an interesting touch to the square styling of the house, probably to mimic the one on the barn.

Such a beautiful home!! Sad to see the decay and vandalism😢 If only these old beauties could be restored to there once grand selves!!

One can,just imagine how Beautiful in Once was, Extremely Sad that it Wasnt taken Care Of..

Took until almost the end. No big chimneys. Then you mentioned coal and I though ahh ok. Cool house. Love houses with weird additions. Been through a lot of harsh winters but still standing. Thanks for sharing. Almost at 150k subs! ❤

If I was a ghost, I’d live here.❤❤❤

There were no fireplaces in the house wonder how they heated it in the early years! The stair case was beautiful. Love your videos.

What a once beautiful homestead!!! I loved the coupalles on the tops of the house & barn!!! Bathrooms were added later as they didn’t have indoor plumbing in the mid 1800s, when this house was built! I was sooo very sad to see all of the graffiti 😞😢😰 People have no respect for the treasures of the past & the hard work that people went through to have beautiful things, such as this property 😢😰😞 I still enjoyed seeing the original doors, door casings, windows, window casings, door hardware & the gorgeous huge Timbers that went into the construction of this property 👍💕❤️ Sooo very sad that people can’t bring this tremendous treasure back from the brink of destruction, to it’s original glory, once again 👍🙏💕 Thank you Kappy, for yet another wonderful adventure!!! I truly loved it 👍💕❤️

This was once an incredible place. The wallpaper was great. It was built to last that's for sure. I'm in upstate NY and love when you do explores here, from the graffiti, I have a good idea of where this one is. Upstate is filled with gorgeous places like this - both abandoned and occupied. Thank you for showing the beautiful area I live it, always look forward to your upstate explores!!

Kappy, THANK YOU for sharing the beauty of these under appreciated homes! As someone who works in a very demanding helping profession and finds it hard to unwind, please know your videos are so vey appreciated!! I can totally relax & recharge while stepping back in time with you & Ruby. Thank you so much!

Timbers in the attic are not only thick, they look like they might be Walnut, some of them. Amazing.

Can you imagine how beautiful this place was back in the day? I hate to see it all tagged and falling apart. Those huge rooms for kids to play, big dinner parties, ect. Then came the updates that made it weird. Another great video Mr Kappy! Thanks for taking me along!

Oh that staircase! That made the whole house along with the cupola and the barn! That barn was magnificent! It’s such a waste to see this house crumbling away. Thanks for this one Kappy! It was grand for sure!❤️

I feel like I have been there before. Best show ever!

I have driven by that many times. I often said. Someone should save it. Than you for the video

I wish I had the money to buy that place and fix it up. Absolutely loved it. Thank you for taking us along.

I've driven past this House for decades, in the past 10 years its really deteriorated a lot more, it once was a really nice House, I've always wondered how it looked on the inside lol, Thanks for posting.

I bet that house was a beauty in her day....sad how its been tore up...Thanks for the video

Wow! With this one I have no problem "seeing" what it looked like when it was a fresh, new and working farm. It's like looking into another world. Thank you Kappy!

They had some pretty wallpapers.

Beautiful old home. I love the rose wall paper in the upstairs bedroom! This house kind of reminds me of a local house that was built by General McCausland after the Civil War. It’s made of huge blocks of stone but has a cupola. The cupola served as a means to cool the house in the summer.

That’s an interesting old Greek Revival, Kappy. I wonder if the stone walls in the basement were from an earlier house and brick added when the whole building possibly got a make over ? I liked that barn too - you can tell it was quality construction in it’s day. Nice work, as always !! Thanks for taking us along for the ride 😃

The layout of this home is interesting. I love it. Too bad it can't be saved

That has to feel weird, going up & down a staircase with no railings Yikes! Thanks for doing it, AND posting/showing this cool old house! You KNOW someone out there has photos of this place , back when it was lived in! Probably in an old shoe box cast aside, is where the photographs of that place, that will probably get tossed by someone who doesn’t even know about the place .. so sad!

Loved the hand hewn beam in the attic! Well done, Kappy!

Can u imagine living in this place when it was new?? The place is spectacular! Ty Kappy again 4 another great vid! Stay safe.

Just cant believe no one stepped up to keep this house in good condition, kinda of breaks my heart.

That house has the definition of "good bones". Still a lot of salvage value in that lumber!

How cool that the house and barn matched. Love that place. It still seemed undeveloped. Such a crying shame nobody was able to save it. Hope you enjoyed New York. I’m in western New York. Can’t beat the beauty out here. I can just imagine myself sitting up in the cupola taking in the view. Thanks Kappy

Thank you for sharing all of these wonderful homes with us all over the Eastern US. This must have been a gorgeous Greek revival home in its day. I believe that may be a carriage house out back instead of a barn in back there but hard to say from just outside. But especially with all of the actual double-hung sash windows and the cupola on it. it reminds me of my own carriage house though smaller than this one. And Cupola is pronounced like chicken coop coopula haha. But seriously you are really so much appreciated for going all over and finding these gems hidden by years of old paint, dirt, and neglect or abandonment for decades. they must have been stunning when they were new. Every time I used to go in one I always thought the owner carried his wife in there when they were married probably. or the first Christmas the house saw with its building original families. Or how many kid's laughter echoed in their walls and rooms over the centuries. I also think when the last parent died the children after removing all the family contents when they were preparing to sell them the last walkthrough they did seeing memories and places in each room special to them. And giving the old key to the new owners however far back that was in each home's history. And what they must have thought when they wired these houses most long after they were built and saw electric lights in them for the first time. That must have been spectacular to them. Most of those people and stories are probably now all long gone.

That long room with nails in the waĺls was a workshop. Tools rested on the nails.

Love the weather in upstate ny...cool one from my state ..to bad it was left to rot...looked like the house was grand in its day!!!!

So weird not to see any fireplaces in a home from way up north! I thought I saw some chimneys on the roof though?

Wow, Kappy. I live in upstate New York. About 20 minutes south of Albany. So cool seeing these houses from my state. Love the view from the top of the house ! Thanks!

A treasure of a home for sure. and a mint of salvagable lumber the quality of which is not available today! no doubt some of those beams could be Ameican Chestnut.

grand old house to bad about the graffiti you are great presenting this as always keep up the great work kappy

Always a heart breaker to see how these works of art aren’t preserved and left to vandals. These buildings were built to be loved and last forever with basic maintenance… once they are neglected and left to rot all their history goes along with it

That place was built very well it's holding up very well

GREAT VIDEO AND GREAT OLD HOUSE,, KAPPY.. ,,SAD THE WAY IT SITS .. I WOULD OF LIKE TO GO BACK IN TIME TO SEE THIS HOUSE I BELIEVE IT WAS TAKEN GREAT CARE OF YEARS AGO ,, SADLY NO MORE .. THE CUPALA??? WIDOWS WATCH ... WOULD OF BEEN A GREAT PLACE TO HAVE COFFEE OR TEA IN THE MORNING .. THE KID IN ME SAYS THATS MY BED ROOM GREAT VIEWS .. THANKS !!!!!!

Well kappy you done it again,a great video!who does love kappy.

This house....once upon a time.......WOW...and no fireplaces 😞

I always love the turtle at the end😊

What a great house! You can still sense the grace of it. The staircase must have been lovely. I was wondering where the servant's quarters were. Curious to know where all the fireplaces must have been. And that barn! No wonder they're called cathedrals of the country. Thanks, Kappy! Hi Ruby!

This house has been added onto a couple of different times. There was an old linoleum table in the basement from probably the 50-60's just laying there, still had all the legs too. Liked the glass door knob and the one that was like a gate handle. Amazing view from the cupola too bad you couldn't get to the one in the barn. Thanks for sharing and have a great day

Still so beautiful..I want so badly to have that 💔💔💎

Loved the entry when you showed it by the staircase with the sun shining in!!! 🙂👍❤️

As with so many of these old homes, it would have been beautiful before vandalism and decay took it over. Such a shame these places can’t be preserved.

From that window, the barn looks like a carriage house that you’d see in town that went with a grand old home .

Thanks so much for documenting all these wonderfully amazing structures before they are gone forever. A+

Love your love of these places. I would love to see pictures of it from back in the day.

Beautiful explore!!! Thank you 😊😊

WOWW KAPPY THIS was amazing great explore awesome place this reminds me of the israel beettison house in ashland nebraska which sadly burnt down i was so maddddd because somebody burned it down the distant relatives of the beetison family were not very happy i wasnt either and noone was caught

What a cool house. Looks like someone was trying to save it at one time.

I bet that place was awesome 👍😎 in it's day love those old places you find it's almost a history lesson

I always look forward to your walk throughs. Thank you!

Interesting find! Great job Kappy!

Criminal that this unique architecture was left to rot!

Just found your show, loving it.

Thankyou for sharing and showing us the details.

Looks like a schoolhouse!❤

Thanks for providing so much of the back story-- fascinating. Another great video. Thank you for being the best the states have to offer in the way of exploration and it's "coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopala." Keep up the good work.

Urban Exploring With Kappy thanks for sharing this video with me my friend about The Once Grand Forgotten Keys Manor House Abandoned For Decades in Upstate New York it was a really good video i really enjoyed it and i can't wait to see your next video and God Bless.

OMG what a beautiful home she needs to be saved!!! 🙂👍

You always find such fascinating buildings to investigate. This one was quite beautiful in its day.

What an interesting, beautiful old home. Great find Kappy.

Thanks Kappy for a cool explore. Such a cool old house. Always sad to see such grand old homes just left to rot away.
