Really nice house! Why can’t people ever be satisfied without the quest for more bigger better? Must they continually try to outdo one another? Just a few minor updates and this would be a perfect home. Nice yard would need just a few privacy plantings along the back. Deck really nice. Beautiful fireplaces though I would prefer wood burning. Nice big kitchen. Love the master bath with interesting light fixture above the tub. Nice big basement. Just always a sad waste when these homes are torn down. This was a fun exploration Ethan. Thanks for sharing. Take care, be well and stay safe!!
It ought to be illegal to demolish a perfectly good house ! What a waste of resources and money ! I talked to a contractor I know here in the USA , he knows of nothing like this in our area. He’s involved in rebuilding old homes not destroying them .
I didn’t learn three blind mice it was birch bark canoe in junior high school 7th grade music class. Like to never got it down and when we had to play what we learned in front of everyone as a graded test I was nervous. When it came my turn I went through it so fast just to get it over with and I thought I was going to get a bad grade but got an A. The teacher laughed and just said you don’t have to be in such a hurry.
This a really nice and large home! The finishes are absolutely beautiful, and great quality. I love the sprawling floor print. Such a fantastic home inside and out! Very cool find!🤟✌️
Love the 70s ....the coloured lights in the kitchen were cool..and the chandelier in the bathroom ...looked like a beautiful day for exploring...lucky find Ethan..thanks...stay safe well well and happy 💋
Such a wonderful home. I would live there in a heartbeat. I am heartbroken they are tearing it down. Bellows!! Its terrible that it's being torn down. I love the colors. I wouldn't have sold it someone who wanted to tear it down. Sorry I have a migraine and this all just ticks me off. Thank you Ethan. God bless and you stay safe and healthy. ❤❤
The house was huge very rambling , it's a shame to think its being torn down. It had so much potential that could have just been saved . I loved the kitchen downstairs, beautiful hardwood floors, interior shutter covering the windows and the interior brickwork. Thanks for the tour Ethan. I appreciate what you do documenting these homes. ❤❤
Love your videos, Ethan! It's especially refreshing to see someone so young with such an appreciation for the past eras of which you were not even alive to experience. Your fascination with style is contagious, for sure. I find it so sad that there are so many beautiful abandoned homes in Canada that are being demolished. I live in the US (in the south) and we rarely have homes that are slated for demolition unless they're literally just falling in/apart. I look at these houses you tour and can't help but wonder how they would have looked back when they were occupied ... how interesting that would be to see!
They are salvaging bath cabinets and doors. Why not salvage this big home? It's just a little updating that is needed. Thanks, Ethan, for showing this beautiful home. BTW, you missed a couple of ops for a "what's up."
Mirrored back splash is very much in fashion now my sons kitchen has mirrored back splash, this house is terribly modern, picture of one apple in a frame? I love that glass table the legs are very very beautiful. Thanks for this video Ethan.
This house was updated a lot. Floors, bathrooms, kitchen, windows, etc. Really does not resemble a 1970's house. Great video. Thank you. It's a fireplace bellows.
This home is absolutely stunning , it's such a shame it's being torn down. my favorite was the kitchen with the breakfast eating area and the on-suite bathroom connected to the master-bedroom was so pretty. I must say I am a sucker for the black details especially in the 80's and 90s. I love the mirrors for the backsplash in the kitchen. The layout for the house was well executed. That beautiful deck was also a beauty as well and you can tell it was well taken care of. Another wonderful Video Ethan I felt like I was there.
Hi Ethan Yet another beautiful house is going to bite the dust. Really sickening. I didn’t see anything wrong with this house so why demolish it. No mold, no fallen ceilings no nothing. That thing you were looking at by the kitchen is called a bellows.. I never lived anywhere that had a fireplace but I think it fans the fire. Just another nice house going into the history books. This always makes me feel sad. Thank you Ethan for sharing this lovely house with us. I’m sorry to think as I write this comment that house is gone.😢. Stay safe and take care.
Ethan, Every Man has His price. I could not me bought out, unless they offered Me 2X what I paid. I spent 40K on kitchen alone, and I just replaced cabinets, stove and fridgr, Measure 10 X 12 Small these daays. Forget what I spend painting, electrical and plumbing. As U know they come in after all the $$$ is done... I pd 98K for a 2 bdrm condo in my town. Could get easy 250,000.00 easy, that is what units that aint as nice as mine. Member Dude, I am in the Biz. And w your knowledge I know you would do very well in the same biz...or related. Youa r good at photography too. Seems to be a thing You have. If U R Cool doing what U R doing now try to make a living from what Ya doing now. You are already very good. Let Your talents make you $$$
The license plate in the garage is circa 50s 60s. I had that same license plate color on my 65 Plymouth Belvedere II. I bought the car for $450 in 1970. I still have it. Not in good shape but I refuse to get rid of it. She was a great car.
A lovely home and big. Some family would really be happy here. There were some nice items left in the house like the artwork, musket, memorabilia, computer chair, dining chairs. Weird.
It doesn't make any sense why a house in perfect condition be be destroyed . Unless for the money! You were right the first time that's a recorder?!!😢😮
Such a shame this one is going down because it's so cute and really nice! I'd move into this one in a heartbeat. Maybe we just need to start educating people on what defines good taste. This house should not be going to a landfill site.😩
The Rifle may have been a Sharps carbine Fifty Caliber , or similar. Might have been a rare old example of a sword bayonet. I'm no expert , but the period would be right for then. Reference the motion picture, "Quigley Down Under" Cheers Ethan
Robert Bateman is one of my favorite artists, I would have taken that, along with the other art. F'em Don't tell me - they are tearing down these beautiful homes, filling up local landfills with beautiful things to make way for " green homes" ? Does anyone else see the irony and the stupidity of this?
I would definitely take that musket gun to the museum, and that gadget by the fireplace that it's like a windbag and that ches museums or antique collectors
The way I remember what that tool is for the fireplace is just think of dr.BELLOWS on the show ( I dream of Jenny ) it’s called a BELLOWS for fanning a fire in the fireplace
Oh and YOU my understand people doing away with a house like this because they want new …. I just think it’s a dog gone SHAME and by ALL MEANS WASTEFUL to demolish homes that are still in good shape … if I had MY WAY it would be against the LAW and people would be ending up in JAIL if they didn’t find another piece of land either vacant or with something TRULY DILAPIDATED 😡
They say JEWISH families also have TWO kitchens in their homes to keep the meat separate…. Never thought I liked homes from THIS era but THIS IS nice very NICE .. Ethan ideally I think it would be OK for ( YOU ) to take that musket and magazine WITH YOU as long as YOU KNOW the owner isn’t coming back YOU get a pass if it were up to me
