Abandoned Houses in Ontario. These may include farms, time capsules, rural properties and luxury homes.


The Spoon Lady’s Time Capsule House

I know very little about the background of this house except that it was lived in by an elderly couple. Most of the contents are still inside and there’s no vandalism. The kitchen still contains dishes and jars of cooking spices. The living room is quite simplistic as is the bedroom.The bed appeared like someone…


Di Benedetto Mansions

I’d been doing some research on abandoned properties and happened across an address for a vacant house in the Toronto area. I added the house to our exploration itinerary but what I didn’t realize was that right around the corner from it, were three large vacant properties. To find one of these luxurious properties is…


The Hunt Cabin

This property is located along a quiet road in Northern Ontario. It looks like it was (or is) used seasonally. There’s a water well in the basement though it looks pretty murky. The hydro didn’t work but it could have been temporarily turned off. There was little of interest to see aside from the iron…


Junk Joint

When you’re shooting with a wide angle lens, sometimes it’s more prudent to just take cell phone photos. This was the case when we ventured into this location I call “Junk Joint”. The property consists of several old vehicles lining the entrance, a large garage filled with old 1980’s and 90’s toys, an RV home…


FYE Mansion

This is a 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom luxury home located in Toronto. The house is valued at approximately $2.6 million. It is by no means abandoned, only between owners as it’s recently been sold. There was another house in the same cul-de sac that appeared to be vacant due to the unplowed snow in the…


Automobile Collector’s Barn

This barn appears to have little of interest if you were to pass it by, but should you take the time to enter it you’ll find it holds a few secrets.There are several old fox body Mustangs, 60’s Mustangs and a Mercury Capri. There’s a thick layer of dust on the vehicles which indicates they’ve…


Sticky Feet House

This location was one of several addresses that happened across my desktop over the course of 2022. I’d seen photos of the pool area posted by other explorers. We decided to visit the house in the fall of 2022. The pool is the most interesting part of the house. Beyond the sliding patio door, the…


Retro Goodness House

This was the home of Donald D. Dunning and his wife Elizabeth. The couple were married in 1951 and resided in Niles, Michigan. Donald was later transferred to Toronto where he was the president of the Kawneer Company. They lived in Toronto for 10 years. The couple had two daughters and one son. A daughter…


Three Houses in a Row (Woodbridge)

In November of 2022, I explored three consecutive houses located in Woodbridge, Ontario that are soon to be demolished. The first and last houses each had a claw tub in the bathroom. The middle house was locked. These type of properties are left messy, for no new owner will be moving into them. I find…


The Safe House (Guelph-Eramosa)

A stone brick house in the area of Guelph-Eramosa. It’s also known as The Safe House, for a vault that used to be on the property.
