A Majestic Second Empire Victorian Mansion from the 1860s, Now Abandoned (VIDEO)

   

Abandoned Second Empire Victorian Mansion Built in the 1860s

Holy Cow – Would you look at this place???

As I was finishing up here and taking exterior photos from the road, a neighbour came over and asked me why all the fuss about this house? She said people have been coming and going all summer long!

According to online research and confirmed by the neighbours, there is a hidden room off the dining room said to have been a stop for the Underground Railroad for transporting slaves to freedom.”

The home is also featured in a book titled “America’s Painted Ladies”, the book confirms the details about its history with the underground railroad.

Inside, the abandoned Second Empire Victorian home suffers from severe water and structural damage originating from a leaking roof. Roof rafters, 3rd floor joists and 2nd floor joist damage.

The home was built in 1860 by a cabinet maker/ undertaker using the highest-quality materials available at that time, like oak and chestnut doors and a slate mansard roof.

Join me on this exploration of this unique abandoned Second Empire Victorian home.

The video is coming in hot, just posted at 6pm!
