Abandoned Clock Maker Time Capsule House in Ontario. Everything left behind!
While there are no exteriors of the house I’ll be showing you, it’s evident that the house dates back to at least the 1970’s. The deck at the rear of the property is now quite rotten. There are several holes in the deck so you have to be cautious walking on it. I cautiously navigated it, keeping close to the walls. By the shed are two old rotary dial phones. They are a prelude to the past way of life to be found inside this house.We were the first explorers ever to set foot inside this house. Upon making our…

The Shining Twins Time Capsule House Toronto
I came across this lovely retro home while out for a day of exploring in the Toronto area. It wasn’t on my list of places to see but the overgrown driveway and For Sale sign caught my attention. It’s not abandoned but it’s not lived in and well.. it just has a great retro appearance. A realtor was just leaving when I pulled up so I returned a short time later and found my way inside. It isn’t technically abandoned but regular followers to my social media know that I use the term ‘abandoned’ in a vast scope of applications. The…

Abandoned Ontario Bed & Breakfast
I was provided information on a supposed former bed and breakfast in Southern Ontario. I parked down the road at a recreational business and walked in the driveway to the property. A large tree has been placed across the entrance to keep vehicles out. The land adjacent to the house is used for farming. A somewhat inexplicable view. A toilet and wash basin set in a large room with at least two entrances. There is plenty of peeling paint. This would have been the main kitchen area for the guests – if this was a…
