Incredible Forgotten Classic Southern Farm House in North Carolina Built in 1880

This stunning and unique old Victorian farm house was built in the late 1800’s around 1880-1890. The house was built for a modest agrarian family who at one time operated a small community around the farm including tenant houses for the farm workers. Sadly in the early 1900’s as the days of sharecropping ended and single family farms began declining the farm began a steady decline as well. Until finally the family moved out for the final time in the mid 1980’s. Now the houses future is uncertain as it sits crumbling away. Glad I was able to document this place, I filmed it originally in 2020 so if you look back you can find the old video. Thanks for watching. Like and leave a comment if you enjoyed!

  • I think that the original house only had 2 rooms down, and 2 rooms up. All the rooms downstairs were an addition after the initial build. Great place, those porches are wonderful. The price for restoration would be very high but, so worth it. Thanks, Kappy. I really enjoyed this one

  • Such a great place with the added upstairs porch. Some of this reminds me of my great grandparents house in Amish country outside of Fort Wayne Indiana. They still had a well pump in the kitchen sink. No hot water. The last time I was there was around 1969 when I was 11. They were celebrating their 75th anniversary. They both lived into their 100's. Great Grandma was 104 when she passed and great grandpa was 103. Sadly after they passed the house was abandoned... Thanks Kappy, another great adventure 🤠👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    • I agree about that painted woodwork, the wood grain on the few spots that were left alone was pretty interesting!! Your comment triggered a memory of “grumble” as you politely stated; I once knew a lady who moved into a old grand house much like this one, and she was eager to show me her remodeling ..to my internal horror, she painted ALL the amazing original woodwork and beautiful detailed gingerbread with mid 1970 enamel blue paint!! ALL of it! To match her deep wall to wall deep green/blue shag carpet of course! I was nearly crying inside! It certainly was NOT a mid century modern style home that she was trying to make it into.. To each his own I guess, but , as they say, there is certainly no accounting for bad taste .

    • What do all of you think? When some of us think about what a pitty it is to have the historical woodwork painted in these very old homes, I wonder about whether the homes of recent times will have a similar disappointment if the woodwork is painted. For example, the oak cabinets which may be considered dated now, but not in the future.

Homes built in more recent years are way smaller than this. I don't know how anyone lives in a one room house, it's too small. That's why I love these older homes from the late 1800's and early 1900's. The beauty and craftsmanship is incredible, and larger size so you have room to move around.

Probably an old crank phone :) I love this house, the rooms are bright with the huge windows, and the wallpaper and woodwork are beautiful. Rooms are nicely laid out without too much remodeling. Nice that there isn't a lot of animal droppings or vandalism. Once again an old metal roof saves this place, water damage is the fatal disease of so many places you show.

  • Another great one,loved those old houses, I'm an old man now, and I grew up in one of those old places as a kid,the celadons were built very high so that the heat would rise to them, that would make it cooler down lower parts of the house, great job young man brings back memories.

  • Noticed no bathroom upstairs either like you said only two rooms. Back in the day of course they didnt have bathrooms in the house usually had to go outside to the outhouse that would be a long way to have to go in the middle of the night if you had to go but later on guess they had go down stairs to use the bathroom instead of going to the outhouse being from NC love these houses thankyou for sharing!

  • My word, that yellow and blue wallpaper really grabs the attention! 😂 The upstairs bedrooms are a good size with fireplaces in each room and beautiful long windows. Wonder why only 2, though? 🤔 Love an upstairs porch!! Maybe that wooden panel on the wall upstairs was to mount a hall lamp? Sconce of some sort? The fireplace mantels seem to have been bought at the same shop. Montgomery Ward catalog, perhaps? Tfs.

  • Love that well pump, it surely was a much appreciated feature back in the day. We modern folk take for granted what the inhabitants of that house would have considered a luxury. Great light in this house! And yes it's kinda awful to see that cheapo fake wood paneling. But a stupendous house nonetheless! Thanks Kappy!

  • Yes it's knob and tube. It's the first wiring used. No Insurance Company will cover a house with it. I've used it. It was O.K. if the fabric covering was in place and you were only running light bulbs. It still exists in homes today.

  • The staircase and wainscoting are gorgeous. Even if the house can't be saved, I hope they save the woodwork.

  • It looks like someone later painted over that fireplace mantel with the partially broken mirror with brown paint, and some of the doors too. What an amazing Dame she obviously was in her time! The original dark wood around that upstair door & baseboards sure looks better than then putrid brown on the other woodwork. Jmo

    • I have to agree.That looks like original wallpaper from when the house was built.Maybe some one will buy it and fix it up. I also noticed in your first photo, it looks like someone mows the property.
