Exploring Abandoned Pond House
Built in the early 1900s as a family home, this unique house with a great view now sits abandoned waiting for the wreaking ball. This home sits on the same property as the WG house I showed last month. The land has been under ownership of a developer since 2008. This developer has been going through battles with the land which is why this house is still standing after being bought by the developer in 2008. The land is said to be rezoned to commercial which means, stores, shopping, restaurants, etc are planned to be constructed here.. Behind the house is hundreds of acres of wooded area including a pond that belongs to this home. I believe an addition was added to this house in the 60s or 70s which you can see on the left half of the home. This house has been highly vandalized as well. Enjoy

It became quite popular in the 70's for intercom systems such as that one. From the kitchen, Mom could call to all the rooms of the house. You could also play music through them. It was kind of a middle class mark of prestige to have one of those systems.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+Unit 38 Never knew that. Learn a lot doing this!

@tamararohlin9292 7 лет назад

the original house was spectacular...the fireplace...the stairs....especially the upstairs, that truly dated that part of the house....AWESOME!

@ILoveJesusForeverAmen 8 лет назад

That 1950's pink tile bathroom was cool

@tammynoranzyk4399 8 лет назад

I don't think I've seen that much storage in every room, so many closets, cupboards shelves and cubbies! What a great find! Thanks for sharing!

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

yes there was a ton of storage. I think the house was used as an office.

@PopCultureFan_ 7 лет назад

Abandoned Steve Yeah, thats what i mean! i love the cubbies..lol, lots of hiding places..lol

@HardeeQuinnDee 7 лет назад

I appreciate how you give background on the places I've seen of yours so far. Helps people remember that it once had life and love at one time

@AbandonedSteve 7 лет назад

Thank you

@ghoulzyplays 8 лет назад

Very nice home. I hope that there were some happy memories there. It's kind of sad with how houses fall into disrepair when nobody no longer lived in them. I'm 33 now and the home that I lived in when I was 13 is in terrible condition and when we left it was beautiful.

@happycherylc 8 лет назад

It is common for developers to intentionally break all the windows and break all the doors so that the elements will destroy and compromise the building. The argument is the house can't be restored due to the extensive damage and they then get a permit to knock down. Often times it's on historic houses or buildings that some historic group wants to preserve. So developers open it up to the elements and after a couple years the building is done.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+Cheryl Johnson My exact thought!

@natashasemrau3670 6 лет назад

Why do you think it's not the developers? If it was kids doing the destruction their would be graffiti all over the walls, and the beer cans would be gone to pay for more beer.

@Whatever70415 6 лет назад

Doesn’t appear to be a development and a lot of the windows are boarded up, not to mention the liability whoever owned it would face, leaving it open to the elements, just punk ass kids vandalizing, not all of them spray paint, especially if they wandered upon it.

@PrairieDodgers 8 лет назад

Glad you got it before it was gone. Looked like it would have been an awesome place to hang for a while and enjoy the world around you.

@Zapruderfilm1963 8 лет назад

I lived in a home with an intercom system. The home I lived in was built in the early fifties and the intercom system was added in the early sixties. Intercoms in homes were popular during the time. They provided a way to find someone in the house without screaming your head off.

@jmarylastone 8 лет назад

I really liked the layout - and that pink bathroom was kinda charming

@conniewalge8687 8 лет назад

Hi Steve, I can actually tell you a little something about this house. I'm a retired Federal Express courier and was all over Delco in my time with the company. You are right when you guess this was a business. The owner was an architect and he ran his firm out of the house. I met his wife and he was actually the fellow who designed the plans for the homes, businesses, etc that they want to build on this parcel of land. She was delighted as she and her husband were going to live in one of the new townhouses they designed. I don't know what became of them as that was about 8 yrs ago and nothing has been started yet on that tract of land ( they were both in their 6o's at the time ) Also the second floor is called a railroad car design where you go from one room into the next. That's the first home I have ever seen in this area, but there are loads of them at the South Jersey shore. My Grandfather had one and my family bought one when I was a teenager. Very common there. Look forward to your next video!

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

@TheJanis302000 8 лет назад

loved all the bathrooms and storage in that house. was probably nice at one time.

@Crowvamp1979 8 лет назад

Heart braking to know that there is no hope for this one. I love unique houses like this, they are such a rare thing, especially with the cookie cutter world we live in now a days. Thankfully you were able to get this one filmed.

@bernarddemski5317 8 лет назад

Great post Steve. The pond house is beautiful. You have to wonder what happened for these folks to just abandon it . Thanks for sharing !!!

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+Bernard Demski Thank You. The previous owners sold it to the developer

@tamarawalker8973 8 лет назад

love the pink bathroom & the view from the blue bathroom.

@natashasemrau3670 6 лет назад

Wow! A pink tile bathroom is so cool, with modern wallpaper. I would never put a sliding glass door in a bathroom , must have been a mistake. Eventho it is not the best house, it's a shame they are destroying it for more stores. The site was beautiful!

@gracelynn2164 8 лет назад

Love the original structure !

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

i love it also. So unique.

@theartist124 8 лет назад

Wow to go from a dark horror film like older part of the house right into a pink bathroom surreal wow! hahaha!!

@AppyTX 8 лет назад

@Ennatol 8 лет назад

When I was younger, our house had an intercom system. It was a three story house so my mom used it to call us to dinner without having to yell or run around.

@evilladollyz7602 8 лет назад

That pink bathroom is pretty ..in pretty good condition too compared to the rest of the house

@SuperMaryq 8 лет назад

Very unique house with tons of storage. Great video! Everywhere you look these old gems are being torn down and condos and shops are taking over. Land is becoming scares in PA

@stateofdisorder1 8 лет назад

Looks like it was pretty awesome in its day, what a shame

@HardeeQuinnDee 7 лет назад

That pink bathroom was the best looking room in the house. Practically untouched. Probably because vandals saw the floral wallpaper and said "f this".

@garyhuffford6085 8 лет назад

That's to bad for this house, the house is so rambling,it would make for such a great country abode! Looks like it could still be restored with some tlc ... would be a cosy place to spend during blizzard s and thunderstorms!

@kathystidham8309 8 лет назад

Loved this house. So sad it has to go.

@oneeyeddog3045 8 лет назад

some very cool features. Love the dark wood and upstairs rooms! Thanks Steve!

@djnevous3us 8 лет назад

@AbandonedExplorationUrbex1979 8 лет назад

I bet when the house was first built it was probably a beautiful house in its day and it must of been nice and comfortable to have that land.

@ESSER68NJ 8 лет назад

+esser i hope youre wearing a mask around all that black mold.

@karenjohansen6544 8 лет назад

It looks to me like that top floor was a self contained apartment or was going to be one, as the big room at the top looked like a large living area then there were bedrooms and bathrooms leading off from there with a kitchen at the one end. That is what it looked like to me anyway. I really liked the house, lots of storage and really cool recesses. I bet it was beautiful in its day.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+Karen Johansen You very well could be correct. It is very interesting

@karenjohansen6544 8 лет назад

It's the only way that layout would make sense I think, I could be wrong, but I really liked that house.

@lexdee523 8 лет назад

+Abandoned Steve OMG! Steve I really like this house. It has such an unusual unique layout. Large spacious room with lots of elbow room. I can visualize what this house looked like when it was lived in and cared for. I would really love to have this house but unfortunately, I'm sure it's probably gone by now. My husband owns his own construction company and he liked this house as well. If it's still standing, we would buy it, he would get his crew together and restore it. Gosh, that was such a lovely home to a family. I hate seeing it in that uncaring neglected condition. Thanks for sharing.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

Yes the house is really cool. The house is still standing but the property is resides on is owned by a developer. They are going to demolish it with commercial places. There nothing that can be done to save it. Sad i know.

@MaxZomboni 8 лет назад

I don't think the intercom system necessarily proves that it was being used as a business. I think it would be pretty normal for a house that size to have an intercom, just so family members can find and communicate with each other. When I was a kid we lived in a regular four bedroom ranch house, that had an intercom system. We mostly just used it to pipe FM radio through the house. I'm sure residents of a house like this could make good use of an intercom.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+Max Zomboni Yea i have seen from comments that it was quite comment in the 70s.

8 лет назад

Awesome place to explore ! Unfortunately , the vandals don´t forgive anything .

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+sergio peres I agree!

@alphaone101 7 лет назад

The small, old farm house I live in, where I was born and raised has a similar upstairs arrangement. You had to go through the large bedroom or master bedroom to get to the other two rooms!

@bluize567 8 лет назад

Great camera work and narration; but man, this is one of the saddest abandoned places I've watched. I can never get over why people have to break what is already broken. Hope that makes sense....thanks for sharing another piece of history with us. I don't often comment, but love your videos.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+brenda gans Thank you Brenda and I agree. Makes no sense!

@rockcitymarco9186 8 лет назад

hello friend I couldn't agree with you more I've been following Steve and his explorations for a while now his camera work and audio are sync together perfectly it's not like the found footage films you might see amateurs make this has a little bit more of a production value and a much steadier hand nice to chat my friend

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

@zipshed 8 лет назад

I agree that place has a strange layout. Some of the rooms are weird but then again some are really neat. That purplish room upstairs is awesome. I love the windows that stretch across one whole wall and the drawers and built in desk below them. I would like a room like that now in my house!. I must say ...strange as it may be...I am really digging the sliding glass doors in the bathroom. As long as you have the privacy and curtains,,,why not. What a cool view! Thanks for another great job Steve

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+Wally Weener Thank You. Time to put a sliding door in your bathroom :)

@zipshed 8 лет назад

Abandoned Steve Your welcome... Im thinking the wife may have some input on my sliding door in the bathroom idea...but today I will dream! :)

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

Wally Weener show her this video, the view is enough to make her say yes ;)

@zipshed 8 лет назад

Abandoned Steve I guess its worth a shot...I mean who would want to watch that act going on anyway? Probably good on the privacy issue! lol

@SinisterKnightz 8 лет назад

Wish we could go back and see these old structures during the best of times. I wonder why the occupants left and where they are now? A little detective work might reveal some interesting stories.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

@YoakYum07 8 лет назад

@vrose924fl 8 лет назад

Your one of two Urban Explorers I enjoy watching. Your filming is excellent and doesn't make me nauseous. I know that sounds weird but so many other people filming these kinds of videos move the camera to fast, out of focus and/or choppy. Thank you for your great work and keep on exploring!

I agree the original part of home is stunning new addition is yuck all that white walls and cabinets way too much white. Awesome explore thanks for sharing new subscriber

@AndrewSmart32 8 лет назад

I think this house would have been rented out, the upstairs would have been a full rented set, with a kitchen, room and bathroom in one. That's my thought. I don't know about the downstairs, but it had the same look with some kitchen cupboards.

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+Andrew Smart Now that you and a few others mentioned it, that must be what it was for

@AndrewSmart32 8 лет назад

i got that idea from my mums house, she rents out rooms, with bathrooms and a kitchen included

@loditx7706 8 лет назад

It seems like a house a family once loved and now it's sad. I loved all the built ins, but can't agree about the paneling, makes a room dark and claustrophobic to me. Maybe the bathroom with the sliding doors was to accommodate a claustrophobe who needed open spaces and two exits. I preferred it to the pink bathroom with the garish wallpaper. It is heartbreaking to think of the flora and fauna that will be destroyed or have to retreat due to development and impermeable cover.

@asankaw1 8 лет назад

wow nice house.. and great location.. i bet the people whoever lived there if its office or home.. they must have enjoyed the peaceful view.. love it.. but sad to see all of these will be gone one day and concrete walls will pop up.. never have seen a floral barth room walls.. like that one..very colourful.. thanks for the great tour.. which will be the last time we see this house standing..

@AbandonedSteve 8 лет назад

+asankaw1 another person told me that an architect lived in the house. Very well could explain why it seems to have an office setting

@claire040776 8 лет назад

Great house..... Great video! My only suggestion is that when filming the inside of the house start from an outside door and go through the house in a logical order ..... this way as a viewer you can picture the layout of the house in your mind better. Keep up the great clips!
