Rare Inside Tour of the Historic Coxe Mansion Renovation 

I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package ru-vid.comUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.

I grew up in one too.1937....now i have a 1935-ish.house in West Texas....yes THANK GOODNESS FOR PEOPLE LIKE US SIR,....&u are so fine & noble & POSITIVE & unselfish you & PENNY....WOULD love to see when finished!!!!yes all the happy times & life & CHILDREN raised in BEAUTIFUL home...ur saving part of history & America.....!!!!

My husband and I saved a 1903 Victorian on Long Island, NY. Homes this old have a heart and soul that need to be restored and preserved for next generation!

So beautiful....our house is still in family.100yrs +.when u opened the electrical box my heart jumped..in the 70s i remembered changing those fuses for my aunt..the stair banister is the original one..six generations have lived in this house..including me..went back two years ago..took pictures of the banister with siblings hand together on it..all the generations up and down those stairs..it makes my heart sing when someone restores these houses..thank you...

I admire this man. Thank God he saved this great place of history!

I live in a 107 year old home and I've done wiring, all new copper plumbing, sheet rock, trim, cement foundation repairs, new roof, new garage, up and down baths. It's a labor of love and I've done all by myself for the last 30 years. Good luck on your project.

what an amazing beautiful old home and thank god for people like you who save them!

Absolutely wonderful old home. Thank you for saving it. God bless you and your wife and your efforts.

Oh my gosh!! This gentleman is amazing. What a wonderful man. I totally agree with everything he said in this film. I’d love to see the house today….

I find homes like this fascinating. Just think of all the stories it could tell of past owners ! So beautiful

Hello, I am the Assistant director at the Red Springs Historical Museum. I often drive past the Coxe Mansion instead of the main street just to see the outside changes during this renovation. My family and I have enjoyed watching this little pebble be polished into a gem. I would love to to get in touch with the new owners as history is very close to my heart as well. I am sure we could find a way to showcase this amazing piece of history!

We bought a Victorian built in the late 1800's by the Presbyterian church for the clergy. There is a lot about your house that reminds me of ours. The banister, for one. We were told that the large post at the base (ours has a lamp right on top of it) has a safe inside in case the house burned down, you can put your valuables in there. Our staircase is 23 stairs long. At the landing is stained glass. I try to not let the love of our house get in front of the massive amount of money that a nearly 4000sq. Ft house needs JUST to be restored. The historic society has a lot to say about it, too. Would love to see what you did with it!

Is there an update. This was posted 2yrs ago. I would love to see where the renovations are in 2020. Thank you. Its a beautiful home. Your awesome for saving it.

THANKYOU for seaving this beautiful piece of history!!! God bless ya'll!!

I do love that staircase. Great house.

Wonderful tour and interview. I love seeing old houses rescued and renewed.

There is something special about about people who appreciate and preserve the work and skills of those who came before. Such efforts are truly among the joys of life

thank u to bringing it to the old glory stay blessed

Heart wrenching video. Casey, I hope you will have a chance to photograph the finished house or, at the very least, the restoration progress.

Thank you for saving this Beautiful home. It’s been a dream of mine to save a old home. ❤️

Gorgeous home! We are taking on a 1904 renovation and trying to document it through RU-vid. You are an inspiration to us. We love older homes and the stories they tell of the past.

God bless you for saving this gem of a home . It shows that there is still some hope left in this country .

Love this old house and this owners passion. I hope you will be able to revisit when the house is restored. I grew up in a large two story farm house built in 1880's. I revisited the old place to see what the new owners had done to it. They change it so much it lost all of its charm.

Oh my! I read what ya'all have done to this house and how it will prosper the community this is awesome. You are wonderful blessed people to being doing such a heavy chore at your age. You will probably live to be 100 and restore many more. This house is absolutely worth saving and thank you.

You are above patience and i never saw a person so devoted to restore the roof and plenty of details.You are an achiever.Congradulation.❤👍💎🙏🎉😘

One is a parlour and one is a withdrawing room. I LOVE these houses. I want to be able to renovate one, but I doubt that will ever happen at this point. I am so happy you took this on.

Incredible house, would love to see the actual renovation.

Thank god for you....my wife and I Also bid on a 1866 house also needed every thing over to two years now...we are living in the bottom three rooms. You are so right every little thing my house hugs me...it gets warmer and talks to us..lol no we are not crazy but can hear all the winters and storms it has gone thru....new roof this month..one step at a time......thank you so much for saving history.

Just found this video and wow! I would love to do the same. I feel it is so important to preserve history. These beautiful homes deserve to be saved. Thank you for your efforts.

Beyond Beautiful ! My goodness what a job you have a head of you. I hope you show us the finished accomplishment ! The house is so gorgeous with such beautiful details ! You and Penny are fantastic people ! Best of luck in all your endeavors. ❤❤

God bless the people that keep these old homes alive. When he was talking about how this house was built without power tools, it moved something inside of me. There's an Anne Tyler book where a big part of the story is about a man lovingly building a house just so. I love old homes, and seeing them in disrepair makes me sad.

It does my heart good to see people restoring these beautiful treasures.

Thank you…. There needs to be more people like you to save these beautiful homes. Once they are gone, they are gone forever and a bunch of cheap ones are put in its place.

So beautiful. So glad you're saving it.

Wow! Even the original house plans! Amazing art.

I love it!! so happy it was saved

God bless you ya'll for restoring that beautiful old home.

Oh my God that is so beautiful I would love to work on it myself and learn how to work on it that is such a work of art it would have been a shame to let that go to waste I'm especially when I can last so long and be so much better I'm so happy for that man hopefully I'll have something like that one day

That is a beautiful home! I’m glad it fell into the caring hands of someone like you. I would love to see your progress.

ive seen pictures of it now from 2020. its got the wrap around double porch on and its all painted and looking really good. you can see pictures of it in google. it almost looks like a different place but they did wonders to it.

What beautiful people. I'm definitely going to be looking forward to seeing it restored .

What a beautiful home. What you’re doing is really a legacy, truly. Thank you for taking the time and effort to gift this beautiful place back.

They are wonderful people. I love how you showed the house with love with your camera work. You can tell how you filled the owner..used his voice over while gently filming the home...the appreciation you had for the home as well.

Beautiful building...super nice man.

What a lovely human being♥️. I too would love to see an update on the progress of this beautiful home.

I love old houses. Thank you for buying this Beauty. I can't wait to see what you do next.

Will you ever put the after pictures on video? I so envy you to be able to do something like this! My Dad was a carpenter and to this day I can’t hear the sound of a saw or smell the freshly cut wood without thinking of him.Happy refurbishing!

Gorgeous - I so appreciate this video!

Thank u for saving this grand old house

I so enjoyed this video! Your style of commentary was very sweet and extremely important to the subject matter. I have an enormous place in my heart and soul for these kinds of treasures. Everything you said resonates with me and my own love for architecture like this. This treasure is absolutely stunning and I’m so glad you saved it!!! So beautiful, every detail is just exquisite😍❤️

Sir; You have made a Great investment, for that had been & with your help again a Classic beauty......

You can see from this video this house has beautiful bones. It was gorgeous when it was built and will be again!

Beautiful! What a wondrous journey! Thank you for sharing. Best of luck

Glad to see this video beautiful home you could do wonders with it the outside and inside thanks for saving this historic place

I love your spirit and envy your Adventures, Thank You for saving this Beautiful home. GOD Bless

God bless him!!!

I have spent the last 14 years renovating a house like this. These homes although beautiful are money pits and constant ongoing maintenance. You have a beautiful home. Best of luck to you

Really got some good bone about it. Im so glad this Treasure is being a Restored instead of being tore down. Just like the the Gentleman thats restoring a 164 yr old place in Georgia.

Absolutely breathe taking project! Can you show another video of the home please? I just purchased a colonial home built in 1880 in the same exact condition in the same exact manner 😳 so stumbling on your video made me feel better about that pit in my stomach that said what did I just do😊 I purchased it on Saturday and also because if someone didn’t, it would be torn down and the thought of that really bothered me because the architecture in the home is just beautiful an just needs some elbow grease to restore back to its original beauty. Mine is in the Catskill Mountains where is yours? So curious to see your completed home 🙌🏻

My mother inherited our family home...a huge old southern mansion that was in our family since 1835. It was packed to the rafters with everything. The family sold nothing through the decades. I found a set of Tiffany sterling silver in a bedroom dresser wrapped in a 1929 newspaper. We decided to repair the roof and do some structural things in foundation....so a contractor requested we get off site for 3 weeks while the work was being done. The house burned to the ground while mom and dad were renting a short term rental. the contractor said maybe wiring problem caused fire. A year later I was walking through a antique district in a city a 100 miles away and saw many of our things for sale in a antique shop window , including my great-great grandmothers 1850 portrait, the dealer had a shop loaded with our things....one of the contractors workers stole many of the house treasures and burned it down to cover the crime. It’s sickening what was lost. We got about half a moving van worth of stolen items back....but the history and the house is gone forever.

Hope you post an update of restoration of this house!

Thank you, Casey Roman, for sharing such a lovely presentation. I admire the gentleman in this video. He struck my heart when he said "...this is not my house, I am a caretaker"... such a valiant thing to say! Is there a follow-up as to how the house is looking today?... I'm so eager to see the renovations thus so far. I bet it's beautiful. Shalom

You’re my hero!

Wonderful!

Just came upon this video. Is there a final video of the completed work?

If it hasn't been sold, the price must be much higher now in this current real estate market.

Beautiful, thanks for sharing!!!

Beautiful house Tom !

Very touching video! Loved it!

This is wonderful! Thank you for sharing.

Wow a ton of work! But so much fun! Would love to see end result!

So what does it look like after rehabilitation?

HATS OFF TO YOU! Good luck. Please do it right, If so I will follow.

BEAUTIFUL HOUSE! I subscribed so l could get alerted for updates to this house. Are there going to be updates?

I love this house!!!

Wish we could see the out come of this beauty

Is there an update on how it looks now, after renovations?

You were certainly placed there at the right time, with what one might say a divine purpose. In restoration, first the roof must be made impenetrable. Secondly, the foundation should be made sound. After that, the exterior envelop (walls, windows, doors). Chimney(s), gutters and mechanical systems. After that, repair/restoration of damage to anything inside. You are on quite a journey! Best of luck!

Beautiful home. Any updates???

Historical open spaces house. Every home several families history.

Its beautiful!

Wow...what a courageous couple! Are there any updates? I wasn't able to find other videos. Thanks Casey!

Wow, can't believe they would bulldoze such a beauty.

Casey - would you do a follow-up video on this house someday? It's amazing

Is there a followup video of the home in its “new” glory?

An update would be nice. 😉

I can see how he fell in love with this house even in it’s awful state of disrepair.
