This unique house was constructed in 1956 on land owned by the Czepurnyj family (Ukranian) since 1952. By 1978 ownership of the house was in the name of to Nadja Czepurnyj, wife of Alexander. In 2007, two of her children (Victor and Luba) were added to the title. Victor’s name was removed from the title in 2015 leaving ownership to daughter Luba. Luba moved back home after her father’s death (around 1990) to help her mother care for the house. The family resided in the house until 2021 when the property was sold for $2,125,000 to a development company.The house…

This abandoned house holds a little surprise inside … a Corvette Stingray. The garage is built into the house in such a way that it’s more like walking into another room than a garage. A garage door has been inserted into a portion of the house’s wall which has been cut out. There are trees growing outside of the garage door, and I’m not certain you could remove the car if you even wanted to.There’s not much else of interest inside. I believe that the owners live next door in a modern home. Several people have expressed interest in claiming…

This Victorian-style building was built in 1897 as a $13,000 private home. At the time the price was six times the cost of nearby homes. The original owner was a man from Berlin named Jacob Kaufman, a successful businessman. Kaufman made his money in lumber and later footwear with the Kaufman Rubber Company. The home was constructed with stone and hand crafted wood work. The second floor still has a built in desk where Kaufman could keep watch on his rubber factory down the hill. A billiards room on the main floor still has a service bell where drinks could…

An unusually shaped building that appears to have never been completed. There’s a second building on the property which wasn’t accessible during my first visit, but has since been opened. There’s really not much more to be said about No Place Like Dome. 🙂

I explored this abandoned house in St. Charles, Ontario back in 2010. At that time I used a point and shoot camera and over the years the photos were bulk resized when I required more website disk storage. For this reason the resolution and size are somewhat poor. This is what the house appeared like in 2010. There are spray painted messages on the front of the house:“This was my house and is not a marijuana grow operation. This is more OPP and shit town lies.“ “Messenger of death“ I returned to this house ten years later in May of…

The Polka Dot Door house is located in Richmond Hill. It was built in 1975. The design of the kitchen reflects the wacky colour schemes that were often used back then. The highlight of the house is most certainly the polka dot door itself, as modeled after the children’s show of the same name. Video

The  Brady Bunch house was located in the City of Markham, Ontario. It was a four level split home constructed in 1960. The house remained largely unchanged since it’s construction, with the 60’s vibe evident even today. The house is located on the grounds of another facility but can be seen from the road. Inside you’ll find the floors have thick shag carpeting. A bedroom has yellow and white vertically striped wallpaper while another has a dotted ceiling and funky 60’s wallpapered walls. The basement bar is made of diamond patterned vinyl. You can vision the parties that must have…

During the early 20th century long before 24-hour retailers and high speed internet, people were able to take the time to appreciate the simpler qualities in life. Loyal companionship wasn’t determined by the hundreds of people on your social media that you rarely spoke with. Companionship during those lonely nights came in the form of a loyal four legged friend. Victor BlochinVictor P. Blochin was a major in the Russian Red Army. While fighting during the First World War he was captured and became a prisoner of war in Germany. One of his fellow captives was a man named Angus Campbell,…
