Urbex: ABANDONED Cobblestone Farm House 

Thanks for the well done vids. No bad language, good camera work, good nafrration. Like to see the kitchens most, especially in ones without furniture, etc. And why is it that men ALWAYS have to show the inside of the toilets????? And they givea very fast panning of the kitchen --- but EMPHASIZE the insides of the toilets!!!!! Thanks.

While fascinating, I find these videos rather sad. Once upon a time these were someone's dream homes. The personal remnants, especially when they once belonged to children, are quite touching. I can imagine a young couple, perhaps in the first home they owned as a married couple, planning and imagining, sitting in front of that fireplace as winter swirled outside. But time passed, people died, perhaps the job they had went away, and then it was over. They moved out. Didn't sell out, just moved. Which to me implies some sort of hardship. I love them all TikiTrex, and appreciate your posts, but they stir my imagination in a rather sad way.

I would really like to get a hold of the people who take such joy in destroying other people's property. Their thought process is so alien to mine it borders on inhuman. Can anyone understand why a person would vandalize property like this?

This house is in better condition than the one I actually live in!! x[

Sometimes looking through a view finder of a camera while trying to watch your footing, it's easier to miss some things. I usually video raw so that we're all seeing the houses for the first time together. When I was walking back upstairs to go outside, since I wasn't just looking through a view finder, that's when I was able to see them better. It doesn't happen often, lol, but I'm just glad I caught them. I appreciate your ongoing support! :)

Hi Shailesh, it's my pleasure. Thanks for taking the time to watch my videos. All I can think of for the heavy security is possibly they had a lot of expensive pieces of artwork.

The little room with the chained door and half window was for wood for the fireplaces, as soon as I saw the half window I knew there was going to be another fire place. The purpose of the wired window was to throw wood through while keeping the door closed, someone inside would stack it.

Ok... The wallpaper is all late 60s, including the massive ferns in the one room. The wild paper with red carpet screams 'teenager', as does the chain on the door. The laundry room was huge- I'd bet that the other side was a sewing area- hence all of the shelving. That front area that looked sort of like a kitchen? It looked rather like a small business area to me. The stairs in back to a hidden upstairs with no kitchen- farm hand or maid or both. And the odd window in the entry is because the original entry was remodeled to enclose the porch- the window originally opened to the outside. There may have been a greenhouse in the entry. The area behind the kitchen wasn't a living room, was a den or 'rumpus room'. The whole house looks like it was remodeled in the 60s, and rumpus rooms were really popular then.

,"Oh dear, I found my new addiction- your videos. :)

Pam although I've watched this one before there was a piece of news paper, under that first piece of "homework" in the first room you explored could have given you a "date" possibly those performance magazines too!!!

17:35 the two "oil" tanks you see, may be gas tanks for the fireplaces.I noticed that the large fireplace in the living room looked like it was gas - not wood burning.

Great old house and would be fairly easy to renovate. So much closet and storage space and many rooms. Really enjoyed this video, thank you very much. She is really gutsy to go down to that cellar.....

This house reminded me of the house on the Walton's show. I love this video. Thank you so much. It's interesting to read that someone else has dreams of walking through homes in their dreams. I often have those dreams. Mostly homes that are set up like antique shops; rooms with antiques displayed everywhere. When I wake up, I try to go back to what I saw in that dream and it disappears and I think oh man, wish it would come back.

You're most welcome, Will! Thanks for your nice comment, and again, I appreciate your recommendation to explore this wonderful location. :)

I'm a little late to the party! I found one of these videos and 3 HOURS LATER, I'm still watching them! My addiction! Thank you for these. I've always wanted to explore abandoned houses....and now I can!

I love all your explores. We are about the same age. I have insomnia and have spent many late nights watching urban explores. You amaze me doing these alone. I would love to do this but one I dont drive and and two, I would be chicken to do it alone. But I find your videos so fascinating. A female fan from Hamilton, Ontario. Keep them coming. Im catching up on the ones I have missed during my marathon of your videos lol

Thanks, Steve! I usually have to travel to these places as my local area has already been covered. This one was only a couple of hours away near Toronto.

These are very interesting. I like it you are so non judgmental and low key. I hope someone knows what you are doing and where you are when you go exploring.

Nice old house. Might be hard to heat but beautiful if updated. Thanks for taking me along again.

You are amazingly steady with the camera, good job!+

This place is not in terrible shape this place could be fixed

I love watching your videos. I’ve been going into abandoned and new built houses for years. The new houses I’ve always asked them builders if I can walk through them. They allow me since it’s usually when I’m running. I love exploring since it is fascinating. I’ve been watching your videos f or hours today. Thank you for explaining items in the house.

Thanks for your nice comments, Xara! I'm glad you enjoy my videos! :)

Just found your channel, subscribed immediately. You do a good job, thanks.

I'm more than happy to help get you your fix, Jim! :) Thanks for your nice comment!

I watch a lot of abandoned house videos but you are my all time favorite! I like it that you try to find history about the places you explore. I must admit that I get excited when you post new videos! Thx & be safe.

My pleasure! Thanks for watching!

I wonder if that second area was a servant/nanny quarters? The tiny kitchen and separation would make sense.

Thanks for the sweet comment, Teala! It means a lot! :)

I love her videos i'm obsessed with stuff like this.

I'm a new follower, and newly OBSESSED as well. ;) For many years - this will sound strange - I've walked through houses in my mind when I can't sleep. Sometimes they'll be my parents' house or my grandparens' houses or an old childhood friend's. Your videos me of that and in fact I watch these videos just before going to sleep, coincidentally (that's when I have time). Odd, huh? But seeing these videos are so strangely comforting and yet of course also disconcerting at the same time. I'm guessing those of us who really enjoy these are those who tend to live in the past more than others? It would be fantastic if there were a way to find the past family/families and ask them for photos or videos of their house back then when they lived there, and then - with their blessing (which might be hard to get), incorporate them into these videos, e.g. at the beginning or end. I see your compilation of videos as a gallery of art, and it would make a truly fascinating piece of art! Probably too tall an order but you would probably end up getting a story written about you at the very least (if you haven't already). Food for thought! I know the decor of this house was late '60s but I too would love to know the exact date. Anyway thank you so much and please stay safe (pepper spray at the very least?!)...

We all live through your travels! Another good one girl, keep em coming!!! Love what you do!!!

And I really admire how bad ass brave you are too! It's great to see a woman on her own with no hint of fear, just a whole lot of curiosity. Fantastic work.

I think those chains in the laundry room are/were for a laundry hamper that is suspended from the ceiling so you don't have to keep bending over. I had one in my old house, and the chains look similar to mine

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for commenting and watching!

Tikitrex. Really enjoy your videos. You're very smooth with your panning and camera movement. I have to take sea sick pills when I watch some of the other URBEX videos on RU-vid.

The attic would be just a small area of insulation. Nothing that you could enter and walk through. The upstairs would be considered a half story as it took up most of the attic space. There was a second furnace in the basement shown in the video.

Are you ever afraid of being alone...like someone crazy is lurking behind a door or in the basement or just outside watching you...your are brave girl

Love all your vids Tiki ;) . It's fantastic viewing them all. Thank you so much for taking the time to explore these amazing places. :)

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy them.

The mainfloor was pretty heavily vandalized, but the upstaris seems relatively left alone.

thank you so very much for sharing adventures with us. I don't get out and about much, and I LOVE your accent and your thoughts on things as you walk through them :) have fun, be safe, and thank you again

This place would have so much potential if it ever gets done. I love through old fireplaces the most. So gorgeous!

That's a lot of house. Good coverage, Thanks.

Tiki you have nerves of steel going into these vacant places. You're the Lady ! Thanks for sharing ///

Such a beautiful home being abandoned is a shame. I lived in an ancient farmhouse once that had a similar second story set of small rooms like this one. In my particular home these rooms had been used as school rooms for teaching the Doctor's children. There was no kitchen nor bathroom. We called it our "dead rooms" because to access it there was only the one stairwell. Great video, as usual.

Thanks for documenting these old houses before they are knocked down and disappear forever. The workmanship in some of these places is unappreciated and these hones would cost heaps to build today.

Another great find and video! such a nice place before the vandals. Makes me wonder why they left. Thanks for taking us to another great location!

I have watched all your video's, several times and enjoy them very much. Don't know if anyone suggested that the chains in the laundry room were probably for hanging clothes right out of the dryer. You could hang more clothes and they not be in the way as much as standing clothes racks they make now. Genius idea.

The room you first entered was a small kitchen for the upstairs apartment. Hence the main level furnace and water heater most likely also supplied the upstairs living quarters separately from the main house. See many set ups like this in Missouri in the small town farm houses. Great video.

Totally addicted to your work Tiki. You do a great job. I feel like I am right there with you! Watched one yesterday that almost had me in tears. Beautiful large home full of plastic flowering plants and cat items......and one poor kitty that did not make it. I imagine the elderly woman that lived there either passed or went to a nursing home and the cats had to be removed from the property to be cared for. Maybe they just could not find that last cat and he got left behind. :(

What an awesome house. I would SO live there! Watching this video all the way through makes me think they were preppers. There's so much storage space! I think they were hoarding food & stuffs.

the cobble stone, is really nice, I like it. I really like the layout of the house. nice work with this one. thanks

I think the little rooms you found were an artist's work area, and the extra furnace upstairs possibly installed to make up for the bigger one - or maybe they used both. I'd guess the house was decorated late 70s and abandoned mid Eighties. What I find curious is the homework left behind in the otherwise empty house. Maybe it was brought there and left behind or found by one of the vandals who became intrigued by it -

When I see your video's, it always reminds me of one of my favorite poems , "The House With Nobody In It." by Joyce Kilmer. There's something so sad about these beautiful, empty places.

Another great video. Thanks for going through what you do to get us the video.

Again Pam, another awesome video!! Kind of an odd house, but looked as if it would have been very nice at one time. It's disgusting what the vandals do to these homes!! It's just senseless destruction, can't understand why? You are definitely the BEST explorer on here!! Your attention to details & narration are great! It tickled me when you got down & videoed the inside of the dog house...lol....keep up the excellent work, I love watching, and Be Safe!!:)

What a unique house. Thanks for sharing.

I appreciate that, thank you! That is one critter I have yet to cross paths with.

red shag rug and red paisley wallpaper, life is now complete :) great video!

thank you tiki, amazing work as usual

Tiki, the bars on the windows and the wallpaper in the house make me think of the classic supernatural/feminist short story "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. I highly recommend it to you and your viewers. I also recommend checking YT videos about Belle Grove plantation, a palatial Southern mansion extensively photographed while empty and deteriorating, later destroyed in a fire in 1952.

I have to admit, that I landed on this video after searching for "Cobblestone Generator", and found this in the list. Love older houses, the older the better, and even better when intact. I remember driving past an old abandoned house, that rotted out, and the last time I saw it, most of the structure was missing, nice at first.

There are alot of abandoned houses out by Erin, Bellwood and surrounding areas. I am sure you ***** would know where these places are. There is also a house that I assume is an older farm house along Bronte rd, I just can't remember the crossing street and wouldn't want to give it out on here either. Love the videos and have got my sister and myself hooked as we love looking into old abandoned houses. Great work

I love that you even checked out the abandoned dog house :)

Second separate upstairs with tiny rooms - maybe for servants? Or seasonal workers?

What a very odd house with lots of potential! Great video. This was fascinating, this house is so weird I'd even say a bit creepy. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the video :D Keep up the good work :) These videos make me want to go find an abandoned place and explore it :P

fantastic find!! how funny that you were a couple feet from those stairs and didn't notice them? Is this the first exploration that you've had a surprise like that? thanks again for keeping us greatly entertained !

Hi TikiTrex :). This is one of several videos I been watching as you explore various abandoned homes. The one where you found a lot of stuff left inside was really interesting. If I find it again I will leave a comment and replies to some of the vintage electronics you were curious about. The chains you were wondering about in this exploration could have been for hanging lights that were probably removed. It would be so interesting if a lot of the homes you explored could be restored to like new condition.

Some family made a lot of wonderful memories in that beautiful house.

I think you are absolutely right in your assessment, Colin! I know I keep saying this as well, but thanks again for your nice comments! lol I truly appreciate them :)

Your filming is amazing - I feel I'm part of the tour! So sad that such a beautiful home has been abandoned - wonder why.

Love everything you do! Stay safe!

A very large house..and ya probley a two family place..I dont understand what idiots get out of damaging the place..Another great job Pam..thanks for sharing..

Not reading all the comments nor did I have the sound of the video on so if this was mentioned elsewhere my apologies... but as far as "your last occupied date" question... I'm guessing as recent as 2005, maybe later. Some of the light switches (flat toggle) haven't been around that long, and I'm guessing that whoever painted the outside siding and dressed up the place with newer switches and ceiling fans (like those 3 blade models for instance), must have stayed at least a year or two after the rehab. Nice piece of property, but vandals did quite a number on every window, and wall... so it would take quite a bit of money to get in tip top shape. Even after you did, it has a strange layout and small rooms... so you'd have a very small group of potential buyers who might show interest. It's kinda like old cars... I love to look at them, but I remember having to give them a tune up on a regular schedule to keep them running. It's a passion if you still drive one, cause now days... "you gas and go"... and don't even look under the hood unless you run out of windshield washing fluid. I don't miss setting points on distributors "at all". :-)

Thanks, dumpstermower! I agree with you, and I also have no use for vandals.

Great video . Very interesting and relaxing .

That's more high-tech than my ceiling fan. xD

Love this house! Makes me sad to see these old beauties go to ruin.

i'm just glad I found your channel :) I wish I was brave enough to do this!

Thank you, Nikki!

Hey! :) Have you ever seen the British programme Most Haunted? (if not the title gives it away)... groups of fully grown men investigate basements like this one... and usually end up running for their lives screaming like little girls. Serious respect to you!!

@abc123 I'm pretty sure that is just goldenrod.

@6:54 Compact Fluorescent Lights in Kitchen Ceiling fan. Relatively modern consumer lighting.

It makes me wonder about some of these abandoned farmhouses. Couldn't have they been put up for sale. What a waste. Would love the cabinets. Really curious about the upstairs with the metal gate up there. I would really check that out.

I love your vids! Be safe out there.

Excellent video as always.

Yeah looks like a multiple family dwelling...would explain the two sets of things...like kitchen and furnaces...another fab exploration tiki. .xo

Thanks for watching, BigD Jr!

yes you make great Video And you point out The Great Details!

Thank you, Finz!

Thank you, Daniel!

Interesting place and sad to see what damage uncaring people do. You could play a fine Nancy Drew . Thanks

What a lovely looking property..must have been amazing to live in this one. Living room window that looked really grown in had a lilac tree growing there. (given how thin it looked it was under 30 years easy) This place was the home that had very formal rooms, looked like a den (study) a library two living rooms..I recognize the hardware in this place. It's from the late 50's early 60's..This person seemed to have had some very expensive tastes living in here..The wallpaper is spectacular. The electrical outlets also will tell you a lot. The basement had a receptacles/outlets and switches will tell you the years it was installed. Also looks around late 50's early 60's. I think this place was worked on in 50's and into the 70's. Why would a place have two furnaces? Actually this one doesnt. The second one looks to be an old air conditioning unit as it does go into the ductwork vents..If it does have two furnace units it was done for the multiple zones..Given how huge this place is, it might have just been easier to have the oil tank inside (the one by the mudroom/laundryroom areas where you entered) due to not being able to get it into the basement. Most of my familys homes has this. One brothers home is from the 1830's and the other brothers home is from the 1880's. A cousin of mine lives in another historic home that has a dirt floor in the basement. It's not unusual to find homes that have stone foundations that have this going on.Thing is this home really looked like it was kept up. The backstairs room suite probably in all honesty was a maids/ inlaw/guest or ideally for a worker that might have worked on the farm back in the day. What a great place.. :)

1:21 "GLAHS" Love your vids, Tiki!

Wow such an interesting home. I would have loved to live there

I love this. You are the best! The goldenrod would have killed me. Wasp nest, by the way.

I appreciate that, Christina! Thanks! :)

When there's a strange abandoned house in your neighboorhood, who you gonna call? TikiTrexDemonBusterhunter! When there's something weird and it don't look right, who you gonna call? TikiTrexDemonBusterhunter! rofl! She ain't 'fraid of no ghost. She ain't 'fraid of no foul spirit. lol
