I don’t have a lot of background information on this property. I was told that it was once a hippy camp during the 1960’s. It’s been well preserved mainly because it’s tucked away in a forested area of Ontario. There are several buildings on the property, which appear to have been last in use as seasonal residences. A follower of mine was able to send me some information on this place, that showed it used to be a community. Unfortunately I lost the information on the history of this site. During a follow up visit, we did see someone using…
Abandoned Houses in Ontario. These may include farms, time capsules, rural properties and luxury homes.
Abandoned Stain Glass Farm House
This is a rural farm out in the country. The front entrance features yellow and blue stain glass. The staircase is the usual wooden newel post design that was so prevalent in these designs.An assistance walker in the front entrance along with the dated bed frame and overall design of the home, leads me to think that an elderly couple resided here until their passing away.
Sandra’s House
This location is named Sandra’s House for the young girl who once lived here. As of 2021, she would be approximately 29 years old. In her bedroom still hang the movie posters from Walt Disney’s Pocahontas (released in 1995). The house was a treasure trove of vintage children’s toys at one time. These items include an Easy Bake oven and a Lite-Brite. A Lite-Brite is a toy in which you’d insert coloured pegs into a honeycomb-like grid that was placed over a piece of black cardboard paper. On the black paper were tiny letters indicating what colour pegs to place…
Puslinch Highway Abandoned House
This is a well documented house in the urban exploration hobby as the house is found alongside a well traveled highway near Hamilton. The house has been vacant for as long as I can remember. In recent years wooden beams have been added to the exterior of the house, presumably to reinforce the frame.Despite the condition of the house, the owner allegedly doesn’t want to sell the land.
Nature’s Backyard House
This house is located in a large metropolitan area, tucked away in a small forested pocket off of a highway. The house is barely visible from the road. The house was constructed in 1967. It was last occupied by a family from Syria. The family came to Canada as refugees from the war torn country of Syria. The four children were not able to attend school or go outside in their homeland. Seven family members lived in a small bachelor sized apartment. Perhaps you’ve seen the news coverage of Syria, particularly overwhelmed hospitals where small children have been seriously injured…
Foggy Day Time Capsule Farm House
Let me preface this by stating that this isn’t a complete time capsule house. It’s a small rural farm house that looks like it was vacated during the 80’s.
Norling Farm (Abandoned Computers)
This is a rural property that’s been around for some years now. I have never been back to check on whether any of the items are still there. There’s a minivan and a parted-out car in the garage and a 40 foot motorhome.Whoever lived here would certainly have been someone I could get acquainted with. They were an avid computer enthusiast and video game collector. Some of the computers include a Commodore PET and 8050 dual drive, a Radio Shack TRS-80 and what looks like a ZX-80. Video game consoles include an Atari 2600 and a Coleco Telstar Marksman. There…

A note inside indicates that a squatter or tenant has to move out shortly.There are barns, stables and an indoor riding arena where the cattle were shown or horses were ridden.As of June 2017 the house has been renovated and is active again.
