The best part of this fantastic house is the shell shaped bath tub and the steps that rose up from the floor and went into the ceiling so elegantly. This house must have been built by an architect that had a dream and built his dream house!! Thanks for the video and I like your style of detailing everything and not saying a word with the sound of your footsteps making it hauntingly real!!
+Robert Sbrana given that there are a few other vids if this place , I thought that would be one of the things that makes mine unique . Glad you liked )
Very good putting the pictures in. It gives a good historical context to what is was and what it is. Also shows what happens when idiot flippers "maximize" their profits with a grow op. It sure looks like that is what happened here.
I have seen thus mansion a few other times by other explorers, but you did the best job. you went slow and showed every room, even closets, none of the other videos I saw did. and also thanks for including the before pics, I really wanted to see it before it sat and decayed. Great job, keep up the great work, love all ur videos! !
such a shame that its wasting away. its not so far gone that couldn't still be saved. id love to have this place and clean it up. so nice. I've seen the other explorers here but ur still my favorite explorer. You get in there and really show us everything and u dont talk and be annoying in the midst of doing it. thanks for the share. nice explore!
Vonnie K The majority of grow op houses have extensive mold issues, electrical issues and several other problems, I do home repair for a contractor and I've been in a few grow houses and by time we've cleaned them up and made them livable again it would have been cheaper to knock it down and build new, although that's the worst case scenario I have also seen many just bulldozed without even giving the chance of a clean up.
I don't understand why they would demolish it. There was nothing seriously wrong with it. Vandalism wasn't to bad. No real serious damage at all. It's all about the money. The banks especially .. If they don't make any money off of it .. No one is going to benefit.
I just can't watch videos recorded with what I'm guessing is panoramic? The round walls and doors makes me sea sick. I do love your videos but I just can't watch this. Is it just me? What's wrong with my eyes?
I wasn't over the moon with the super wide setting on the camera either, I have changed that setting to regular wide since this vid. Its a unique view, but not liked by all for sure.
DaaDeeOh's I have watched other's film this house & you captured something that they didn't. Not only were you thorough, you brought Love to this house which ultimately made it a HOME. Thank You for sharing your craft. I & "WE" as viewers appreciate your diligence. From My 💜 to Yours!
Gina Lola Getting the feeling of being sea sick has to do with the interaction of three basic body systems: your sight, your inner ear, and the position of your body. Since you are likely stationary while viewing a video, your body is standing or sitting still while your eyes are telling the brain you're moving. All three systems are communicating with your brain so your brain can control everything - so in your case, your eyes are telling the brain you are moving while your body is telling your brain you are stationary - and where the ears enter the picture, is that the inner ear is equipped with fluid and mechanisms that act and counteract to do one thing or the other to maintain our balance. Since the brain is receiving contradictory information, it issues an order of some kind that probably tells the inner ear to do something that doesn't really need to be done cause your body is not actually moving; so you get dizzy. However, my faculties all work fine - I don't get dizzy watching this - so my research revealed that what you must pay attention to is, if you notice other balance-related problems of any kind, it may indicate that you do have a disorder of some kind that should be looked into. It is not necessarily anything major, and balance/dizzy related problems can be cause by a multitude of things - medications, for one. What I would think about if I were you, is: has this bothered you your whole life, or only recently? Like I have already said, do you experience other balance-related problems in a general way? For instance, do you have difficulty walking from a curb to a street? Do you have trouble with stairs? Can you ride a bicycle without getting dizzy or losing your balance? If you can't answer yes or no to any of these questions, then do some experimenting yourself. The red flag is if you have any other balance related problems, then see a doctor about it to find out why. I saw no mention of anything like cancer, so don't fret about that - it's all fixable - it could be something as simple as needing your ears flushed out. I like helping people so that's why I chose to give you this info, but the next time, you have a whole world of information at your fingertips - the Internet. Just go to Google and ask the same question you asked here - and you will get a wealth of answers delivered back to you about anything you want to learn about.
The lady who owned this house was dying of cancer she had a small ( legal) grow room in closet for her own medical use but apparently the other people ( someone said realestate people or people in charge of her will ) didn't notify of her death & kept growing weed here to profit & turned more rooms into grow rooms ( no one was living there just using it to grow ) & a fire broke out and then police discovered the owner had died & the people had kept it secret & been growing weed there
Thanks for letting us know the story behind this. Very sad to see such a beautiful home destroyed like this. Do you know what happened to this home ? Is it still abandoned ? Has it been sold?
What blows my mind is -- WHY ISN'T there some sort of a JOB called living and and taking care of these properties? I, like you felt somebody loved this home. That's what makes an abandonment so sad. But even as you've seen, within WEEKS vandals show up and destroy the place. For WHAT? THAT ticks me off big time. NO EXCUSE FOR IT - just because they CAN. And as natural motion flows, the next things come FIRES. People always hurt abandoned places. I really wish they wouldn't do it. Homes are like people, they need people, and need to be loved. They need someone there to protect them from people like hooligans who mess these places up. Maybe one day if these people ever go homeless - they will learn the value of HOME. Lovely place. Should the job come up to take care of it and put it back together- get a hold of me- I'll take the job!
What a great explore. I had seen it before, but your way of showing it is still the best! You knew something was not right with all the police tape outside, and inside all the tubs and soil and chemicals. But what a grand house, those curves that marble... everything screamed opulence. Well done!!
DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration I don't mind the non-talking video. The thing that gets me is the sound of the camera. I have that thing where sounds, even the miniscule sounds irritate my ears. So it doesn't bother me so much as hurts my ears. I hate muting videos but I have to mute yours. 🙁
Though I was frustrated with the tunnel vision of this video, I enjoyed seeing this house. It was magnificent in its era. I appreciate the fact that he doesn't talk too much, give unnecessary commentary, or goof around like some of the other explorers.
A great video. And what an amazing home. I think I would get lost in there. Sad to see all that wonderful construction and landscaping design just going to ruin. Thanks for making this video.
This is one of the best explore videos I've ever seen. 1) You showed the entire exterior of the house. 2) Very few cuts so it felt like I was walking right with you. This also reveals the floor plan. 3) I'm not a fan of explorers saying, "Wow! This is the kitchen!" and there was definitely none of that. 4) Also, thanks for the details in the description, definitely the cherry on top! A+++
Can someone please give me the description and history of this house. It's so beautiful but what is the reason for this mansion to be abandoned? I'm curious. It's beautiful and creepy at the same time.
THE MOST FANTASTIC RECON OF A MANSION BY AN URBAN EXPLORER IVE EVER SEEN . THE "AS WAS" PICS ARE DIAMOND - GR8 TOUCH ! IVE SUBSCRIBED & WILL BE CHECKING YOU OUT FROM NOW ON . PLEASE STAY SAFE !
What a beautiful house. Even though vandals damaged it the real spirit of the house comes through, you are one of the best by far!! Love your creativity :)
Every time I see these kinds of videos I often wonder the stories behind what caused a family to vaporize from that existence. I really liked the video and the retrospect photos that reflect happier times. I also appreciate it that you tried to keep everything as it was. Have you thought of upgrading your lights to match the lens you're using? Keep up the great work!
I think what you do is cool! On my end of it (watching your videos) I get to see abandoned places and how lavish people once lived. With that being said, I do get the creepy feeling due to the place being abandoned in general, I guess? I don't know what makes me feel this way, but I'd like to say thank you, for being the brave one who goes inside and shows us the amazing footage, not to mention the before and after pics! This is the first one I've watched, and I'm left satisfied with your coverage, and not feeling the need to watch anyone else's coverage!
Awesome house. Awesome job. Very sad. Thank you for including it's history, that is why I am liking and subscribing :) whatta shame it's left to rot and be vandaliized :( you did an excellent job with your footage and prior pictures of the house! Bravo! Hopefully someone will buy it and restore and love it again
your videos are interesting, but the fisheye or wide angle camera lens makes me feel a bit nauseated after viewing for awhile. it's a disorienting and unnatural way of viewing things
Many modern "mansions" are actually built of cheap materials despite their size, and they deteriorate quickly when not maintained. It is often cheaper to just tear them down and build something new, since the cost of restoration is not worth the expense.
This one definately has that "cheap mcmansion" thing going on. I think it's one of the most tacky places I've ever seen. Reminds me of a mule in horses harness. Or place where porn movies were made.
Yes I've been told that before too. Do you think the rich owners know this and or at least awear of it? I myself would want only the best. The strongest and richest lumber with all materials that's needed. But, then my thoughts are to live there and pass it down to my children and grandchildren and their children .. etc. So to keep it in the generations to come. It would have to be the best of the best. For it would become a dynasty. People that can do this with money seems to be lacking a whole lot upstairs.
WOW! All the negative comments about the workmanship of this house being of "cheap" construction or a modern "McMansion" building. And maybe at first glance it might seem that way. But if you really look deeper at the house, it's not some modern cheap construction thrown up for some one that had more money than sense. Case and point, if you look at all the fixtures in all the bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen. Everything is high in gilded workmanship. The crown molding is expertly carved. That requires high end hardwood. That stuff you can't mass produce out of anything cheap or flimsy soft wood like pine or particle oak. Not only that but all of the "before" pictures all have styles from the the mid 70's to the mid 80's. By that proof alone the house is not a cheap or modern construction. But it's just the opposite this house was constructed with old school building techniques and quality materials. For being abandoned the house is in amazing condition. In fact with a tube of construction caulk, power, water and a new water pump you could probably run a cleaning sollution through the system and get the indoor waterfall (a mid 60's design) above the main staircase working to give the house a nice tranquility vibe. Anyway, given the design of the house. Along with the different styles in the before and after pictures, it's obvious that the house hasn't been completely exposed to the elements. There's no doubt that it was built to the highest quality building standards. So if this house is still standing it could be restored and would definitely be well worth it. Please observe a little bit more before you comment.
oh wow..awesome.. i have seen this house in another channel.. but not the 'before' pictures.. its so sad to see all those french doors, doors, fittings will be wasted a way.. thank you for posting the pictures..looks like some one cleaned the shrubs in the backyard..weird.. love your videos.. take care (again a thought.. why cant some one use place for something.. its looks very steady and strong, what a waste)
Thank you for the feedback ) I really liked the before shots so i thought I would share ) Its hard to say what will happen to this place, but it is salvageable i think
there is lot that can be reused..in fact the whole house ..what a shame.. oh well.. at least you have a record of this house..im so glad you do what you do...its really fantastic..and to share it with all of us ..is awesome.. thank you..
I jnow i feel like there should be a company that comes in and salvages the usable hardware and stone flooring and doors and windows and then resell them at a discount price for people in need.
This is a beautiful mansion the structure and design is breath taking i i hope the future generations of this home keep the history of their family up someone work hard for this
i love the way you make this video you show every little space of it and no talking just enjoying the view I LOVE IT thanks who lived there just wondering.
I saw this explored on another video, but your explore showed more of the house but also you tracked room to room which allowed more understanding of the layout. I heard this is to be demolished. It is beautiful. Oh and I loved that you showed pictures of it when it was in its hay day.
I've seen a couple of other video's of this beautiful place and had alway's wanted to see it before it had been abandoned and you made that wish come true thank you so much. Would really love to do some research and to know more of it's history, I know I sound like a greedy old woman but these places truly fascinate me.. One question how in the world did you happen to get the before photo's? It really doesn't matter I guess but I'm so happy that you did. Again thank you, you never disappoint. I look forward to your videos
We only live once just sitting and imagining the beauty of this type of lifestyle Such a huge place I would definitely wonder if someone was hiding out in there That dining area was beautiful that bar was fabulous The dining area towards the end fabulous
I really liked this house. I found it unusual that all the appliances, fixtures, and even the air conditioning units were still there. The little collection of toy cars kind of broke my heart. I have never seen a clam tub before. That was a new one! All together though, really cool to see, thank you.
Omg, I love watching these. I used to do it with my mom as a kid. I live in Durham and anytime you need a tag a long, I'd be thrilled. I don't have any idea where you even find these haunts.
For a mansion, it has charm. From the before pictures we could see it was decorated with taste. It has an Art Deco vibe. I guess you found the before pictures from a real estate listing. Great job! I bet it was a great home to entertain. It could have a second life as an old folks home, just add an elevator and modify the bathrooms. Or it could have been an addiction treatment center. House cleaning must a been a real chore!
Nice video, dont know if I care to much for the odd camera angel but thank you for taking the time to show us something once so beautiful now in slow decay. When I was a kid my parents and I would wonder thru old abandon houses but never anything of this caliber. Well done good sir.
I agree, it was my new camera and the setting was SUPERWIDE, I have since changed it to WIDE and its much better. Half way through you can see the change as I visited this location 2 times. Thanks for watching ))
LOL! This is the 3rd vid of this house i've seen and alot more damage has been done but, still the same too. GEES! that van is still there and none of you guys will go film it! I wanna see what's in it!!!! Still sitting there in the same place. Very nice tho thanx a bunch!
Finally, you got to this place I'm commenting before I watch the video, hopefully you show different views then everybody else did knowing your video you probably will. Very much enjoyed the video, you definitely did show different angles then everybody else did, hopefully this place gets saved and it doesn't end up like every other abandoned house, this place is for the most part very much intact besides a few windows and doors, very savable at this point and time. Too bad you were unable to get in to the left hand side garage, I'm surprised those high-end appliances are still in this house. It could be incorrect but one of the stories I heard on this place the homeowner got sick, she was a single mother quite wealthy and when she moved out the real estate agents are the ones who set up the grow up. I forget, did you ever visit the abandoned cat lady house or what's left of it??
I think if someone spends their time finding and exploring these places, it’s pretty nervey to expect a report on the background of the place and why it was abandoned.
Lois18866 wow! The person spends time finding and taking a video tour through abandoned places and you want a historical report on who owned it and why it was abandoned?? That is a very nervey remark
Even though it's abandoned,it makes me absolutely sick to see that someone has put graffiti in a few places.What the hell is wrong with people?!Jackasses have no respect:(
It's a very interesting explore but this one has bad feng shui. I don't like this house. It's gaudy, pretentious and ostentatious, even in the before pics. It's like someone with more money then sense designed it, like someone from a trailer park who hit the lottery. Just not my style at all.
I've seen even nicer homes left to ruin. One that especially comes to mind was a place called EDGEMERE in Canada. Since been demolished and condominiums on the site now. $ 37-$45 million. At that time it was THE MOST expensive property in Canada.
DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration Thanks for the response. I watched several of this house because I wanted to see if anyone was going to look in the garage. You were the only one to show it.
I enjoyed your tour of this palatial estate - what a stunning mansion indeed! When you went through the kitchen area, it appeared as though the residents were disturbed in the middle of their day. Since you saw evidence of a growing operation, I conjecture what probably happened is that some person who knew about their operation snitched them off to the cops and then the cops busted in on them in the middle of the day or night and took them all away - that would explain why the kitchen looks like they were in the process of fixing a meal. Similar to the uploader , I, too; feel for the residents and their children - I mean; they're just going along minding their own business, doing what they do, and someone they trusted betrays their trust, and it's all over for them. I don't see anything particularly "sinister" like the uploader said, about a fire - things happen, and the only way a fire could be thought of as "sinister" would be if arson was suspected. Regardless, that's typically how cops make busts like this - because of a weak cog in the wheel.
Frankie Kelley I truly wish they would catch these f#%@ heads red handed and give them the max!!! Maximum jail time, hours and hours community service, a hefty fine, and make them pay restitution for everything damaged on the property! And is they don’t pay with in ample time, send them back to jail!✨✨✨
Love your videos and the places you explore. But is there any lens you can use that doesn't give that round effect? Makes it hard to get a sense of scale for the buildings.
I like the stills of what it once was very nice. I get lost with the pan over then going back. Was that a shell bed or a bathtub in the middle of the hall? How many baths were there seemed to be 3 with one bidie. And one sink toiled and bidie down stairs? If u do not wish to talk please include a written narration and some house history.
Sometimes if you know where these places are you can find out if you can purchase it by paying off back taxes some people just let them go because of taxes but maybe a bank owns it and it's for much more than it's worth if you can imagine that
I can't say that I think much in the builder's tastes in mansions. I'm just old fashioned. I just want to scream when I see such wasted places. The appliances looked new also.
It is very nice built architecturally and at some places seems in touched and used fire might have been the reason of its habitants to leave this awesome 9000sq ft built mansion ur efforts are good to explore these unseen abandoned houses so that we can also watch these all
Thank You Louise Potter Below To Give some previous owner info , R.I.P. Lady cancer Previous owner, & Very Sad the VANDALISM Inside. My the vandals themselves l8tr be Vehemently Vandalized In Their Future as payBack
i love your video's you stay focused on the house not showing old clothes or shit in the toilet etc. like some of the other channel's i watched. thank you, definitely want to see more of your video's.. sorry for the language but it's true.
The best part of this fantastic house is the shell shaped bath tub and the steps that rose up from the floor and went into the ceiling so elegantly.

@@DaaDeeOhAdventures Thank you for the before and after pictures. It made the video a lot more interesting.
Yes love before pics. But how did you get them is my question. Just curious.🤔
Whenever I see videos of abandoned places like this I'm thinking of one thing: what about the people who lived there? Where are they now?
What a beautiful staircase... and the railing design is just GORGEOUS!
I have seen thus mansion a few other times by other explorers, but you did the best job. you went slow and showed every room, even closets, none of the other videos I saw did. and also thanks for including the before pics, I really wanted to see it before it sat and decayed. Great job, keep up the great work, love all ur videos! !
+amy c thanks Amy, I know I can't please everyone, but when I get positive feed back it makes my day )
+amy c I found them with some research
The before pictures are a BIG plus for sure. It's hard to imagine these mansions in their glory days.
It's sad to see such great work abandoned this way where are kids or grandkids just to think about these homes or mansions mhm it's not nice.
such a shame that its wasting away. its not so far gone that couldn't still be saved. id love to have this place and clean it up. so nice. I've seen the other explorers here but ur still my favorite explorer. You get in there and really show us everything and u dont talk and be annoying in the midst of doing it. thanks for the share. nice explore!
+Vonnie K thanks Vonnie! 😉

Seeing this once beautiful home destroyed hurts my heart, it's so sad what people do to places like these.
Rachelle Baird the HOUSE being abandoned does t bother me. I want to know about the PEOPLE. I want to know the history of it.
Rachelle Baird it definitely was not a home it was just a big house there was nothing homey about it
I don't understand why they would demolish it. There was nothing seriously wrong with it. Vandalism wasn't to bad. No real serious damage at all. It's all about the money. The banks especially .. If they don't make any money off of it .. No one is going to benefit.

Paul Booth such a detailed reply. None of that other stuff happens to me.
Paul Booth what?
The lady who owned this house was dying of cancer she had a small ( legal) grow room in closet for her own medical use but apparently the other people ( someone said realestate people or people in charge of her will ) didn't notify of her death & kept growing weed here to profit & turned more rooms into grow rooms ( no one was living there just using it to grow ) & a fire broke out and then police discovered the owner had died & the people had kept it secret & been growing weed there
Thanks for that!
Yeah it makes sense
Thanks for letting us know the story behind this. Very sad to see such a beautiful home destroyed like this. Do you know what happened to this home ? Is it still abandoned ? Has it been sold?
Wow thnx for the info..Interesting!
Wow what a shame. See what happens when you get greedy. And sneaky
great vid. especially liked the before and afters.
What blows my mind is -- WHY ISN'T there some sort of a JOB called living and and taking care of these properties?
I, like you felt somebody loved this home.
That's what makes an abandonment so sad.
But even as you've seen, within WEEKS vandals show up and destroy the place. For WHAT? THAT ticks me off big time. NO EXCUSE FOR IT - just because they CAN.
And as natural motion flows, the next things come FIRES. People always hurt abandoned places. I really wish they wouldn't do it. Homes are like people, they need people, and need to be loved. They need someone there to protect them from people like hooligans who mess these places up.
Maybe one day if these people ever go homeless - they will learn the value of HOME.
Lovely place. Should the job come up to take care of it and put it back together- get a hold of me- I'll take the job!
I feel exactly the same way. It breaks my heart to see how ugly people can be.
Wow wow
Well said...
What a great explore. I had seen it before, but your way of showing it is still the best! You knew something was not right with all the police tape outside, and inside all the tubs and soil and chemicals. But what a grand house, those curves that marble... everything screamed opulence. Well done!!
It was built in 1995. If you want to add the year to the description
It must have been loved at some time. A whole purple hallway and room dedicated to someone's little princess!
I like this kind of tour better than listening to people talking over it.
Sweet, thanks...A lot of haters on the no talking... ))))
DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration I don't mind the non-talking video. The thing that gets me is the sound of the camera. I have that thing where sounds, even the miniscule sounds irritate my ears. So it doesn't bother me so much as hurts my ears. I hate muting videos but I have to mute yours. 🙁
i usually turn off the audio and watch in silence.
Me too
lol I like them better with commentary...
Though I was frustrated with the tunnel vision of this video, I enjoyed seeing this house. It was magnificent in its era. I appreciate the fact that he doesn't talk too much, give unnecessary commentary, or goof around like some of the other explorers.
The whole time I felt like I was exploring the inside of an egg!
LOL
A great video. And what an amazing home. I think I would get lost in there. Sad to see all that wonderful construction and landscaping design just going to ruin. Thanks for making this video.
that place is amazing
that place is too nice to rot away
TheMetalmachine467 true,...almost looks like a mini mall
I wished I owned a house as nice as that place
Its ugly asf anyways..Style is too modern and "cold" ,house has no personality
just wondering why you use a wide angle lens, feels like i'm constantly looking through a porthole?
Ya,, I didn't like that either, it was a setting on my new camera. I have scaled it down. Thanks for the feedback. )
This house was a Boss! I love the design, floor plan, and layout. I don't understand who in the helll left this beautiful house!
This is one of the best explore videos I've ever seen. 1) You showed the entire exterior of the house. 2) Very few cuts so it felt like I was walking right with you.

Wow thanks ! Really great to hear you enjoyed !
This mansion is totally spectacular !! I totally love it!!!
This was once a very beautiful home. The staircase in the middle was so lovely! Surprised it wasn't salvaged a long time ago.
So much potential. I really hope someone scoops up this property, and restores it to its former glory (before it became a grow op, obviously).
my wife would love to have this, clean it up, play, and decorate!...
Can someone please give me the description and history of this house. It's so beautiful but what is the reason for this mansion to be abandoned? I'm curious. It's beautiful and creepy at the same time.
grow op
I always like the ones when you get to a place before the crack-heads and taggers.
Keith Explores sadly on another video i saw the address has been given out
Thanks! It’s always a great explore from you! I enjoyed it thoroughly
I am really glad, thanks for watching
Love this house!
wow that place is awesome

Have you thought of upgrading your lights to match the lens you're using? Keep up the great work!
Damascus Steele Most of the time its developers buying the property to build condos. You can make more money that way.
I wonder the same way
I think what you do is cool! On my end of it (watching your videos) I get to see abandoned places and how lavish people once lived. With that being said, I do get the creepy feeling due to the place being abandoned in general, I guess? I don't know what makes me feel this way, but I'd like to say thank you, for being the brave one who goes inside and shows us the amazing footage, not to mention the before and after pics! This is the first one I've watched, and I'm left satisfied with your coverage, and not feeling the need to watch anyone else's coverage!
this is the best video on this mansion, yours is The best!
Was there a glass broken GMC Yukon XL at that mansion?
Awesome house. Awesome job. Very sad. Thank you for including it's history, that is why I am liking and subscribing :) whatta shame it's left to rot and be vandaliized :( you did an excellent job with your footage and prior pictures of the house! Bravo! Hopefully someone will buy it and restore and love it again
your videos are interesting, but the fisheye or wide angle camera lens makes me feel a bit nauseated after viewing for awhile. it's a disorienting and unnatural way of viewing things
Da até medo dessas mancoes
Awfull photography..ridiculous and way to dark.
Many modern "mansions" are actually built of cheap materials despite their size, and they deteriorate quickly when not maintained. It is often cheaper to just tear them down and build something new, since the cost of restoration is not worth the expense.
This one definately has that "cheap mcmansion" thing going on. I think it's one of the most tacky places I've ever seen. Reminds me of a mule in horses harness. Or place where porn movies were made.
All it would take is a grounds keeper and minimal staff to keep the place maintained.
Yes I've been told that before too. Do you think the rich owners know this and or at least awear of it? I myself would want only the best. The strongest and richest lumber with all materials that's needed. But, then my thoughts are to live there and pass it down to my children and grandchildren and their children .. etc. So to keep it in the generations to come. It would have to be the best of the best. For it would become a dynasty. People that can do this with money seems to be lacking a whole lot upstairs.
WOW! All the negative comments about the workmanship of this house being of "cheap" construction or a modern "McMansion" building.
And maybe at first glance it might seem that way. But if you really look deeper at the house, it's not some modern cheap construction thrown up for some one that had more money than sense.
Case and point, if you look at all the fixtures in all the bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen. Everything is high in gilded workmanship. The crown molding is expertly carved. That requires high end hardwood. That stuff you can't mass produce out of anything cheap or flimsy soft wood like pine or particle oak.
Not only that but all of the "before" pictures all have styles from the the mid 70's to the mid 80's. By that proof alone the house is not a cheap or modern construction. But it's just the opposite this house was constructed with old school building techniques and quality materials.
For being abandoned the house is in amazing condition. In fact with a tube of construction caulk, power, water and a new water pump you could probably run a cleaning sollution through the system and get the indoor waterfall (a mid 60's design) above the main staircase working to give the house a nice tranquility vibe.
Anyway, given the design of the house. Along with the different styles in the before and after pictures, it's obvious that the house hasn't been completely exposed to the elements.
There's no doubt that it was built to the highest quality building standards.
So if this house is still standing it could be restored and would definitely be well worth it.
Please observe a little bit more before you comment.
I am not sure...but watching this gives me goosebump. There is something in that mantion that i have to stop watching.
Ohhhhhhh 😂😂😂 I ask to soon. Now I saw the description. Thank you
oh wow..awesome.. i have seen this house in another channel.. but not the 'before' pictures.. its so sad to see all those french doors, doors, fittings will be wasted a way.. thank you for posting the pictures..looks like some one cleaned the shrubs in the backyard..weird.. love your videos.. take care (again a thought.. why cant some one use place for something.. its looks very steady and strong, what a waste)
Thank you for the feedback ) I really liked the before shots so i thought I would share ) Its hard to say what will happen to this place, but it is salvageable i think
there is lot that can be reused..in fact the whole house ..what a shame.. oh well.. at least you have a record of this house..im so glad you do what you do...its really fantastic..and to share it with all of us ..is awesome.. thank you..
I jnow i feel like there should be a company that comes in and salvages the usable hardware and stone flooring and doors and windows and then resell them at a discount price for people in need.
Love You Style Of Making Videos, And I Love Ethan.
this is so bright and sunny! why would they leave sad!!
amazing. thanks for the video ! that clam tub is something else
This is a beautiful mansion the structure and design is breath taking i i hope the future generations of this home keep the history of their family up someone work hard for this
Great Video! In Germany I have never seen a house like this. Neither inhabited nor abandoned. Amazing.
i love the way you make this video you show every little space of it and no talking just enjoying the view I LOVE IT thanks who lived there just wondering.
beautiful place. love the quietness hearing the birds.
This is the best exploration.good job
It was certainly much nicer inside, than out!. And I would have been tempted to leave with that washer and dryer set.
I know..what a waste...
Yaa me too!! One man's trash is another man's treasure
Well if someone moves in before complete destruction of the property by vandalism.. They're have a washer & dryer ..
I saw this explored on another video, but your explore showed more of the house but also you tracked room to room which allowed more understanding of the layout. I heard this is to be demolished. It is beautiful. Oh and I loved that you showed pictures of it when it was in its hay day.
Very nice explore loved watching it and very nice b4 photos
Thanks Rolf! glad you enjoyed ! I thought the before and after was a nice touch to show the viewers
I've seen a couple of other video's of this beautiful place and had alway's wanted to see it before it had been abandoned and you made that wish come true thank you so much. Would really love to do some research and to know more of it's history, I know I sound like a greedy old woman but these places truly fascinate me.. One question how in the world did you happen to get the before photo's? It really doesn't matter I guess but I'm so happy that you did. Again thank you, you never disappoint. I look forward to your videos
+Karen Foster thank you so much) I like to think I can add a unique spin. I found the before photos with a little research. ;)
I agree completely.

We only live once just sitting and imagining the beauty of this type of lifestyle Such a huge place I would definitely wonder if someone was hiding out in there That dining area was beautiful that bar was fabulous The dining area towards the end fabulous
This place is stunning even in this disrepair. Thanks for showing us..........
Gracias por este fabuloso video saludos
I really liked this house. I found it unusual that all the appliances, fixtures, and even the air conditioning units were still there. The little collection of toy cars kind of broke my heart. I have never seen a clam tub before. That was a new one! All together though, really cool to see, thank you.
I was happy to share with you Amber!
Omg, I love watching these. I used to do it with my mom as a kid. I live in Durham and anytime you need a tag a long, I'd be thrilled. I don't have any idea where you even find these haunts.
I take my boys now and enjoy these places, they love it ))) Ill keep ya in mind for future )
Many explorers have been here. Seen it a few times. I love this place
love the before pics nice job!:)
For a mansion, it has charm. From the before pictures we could see it was decorated with taste. It has an Art Deco vibe. I guess you found the before pictures from a real estate listing. Great job! I bet it was a great home to entertain. It could have a second life as an old folks home, just add an elevator and modify the bathrooms. Or it could have been an addiction treatment center.
House cleaning must a been a real chore!
Nice video, dont know if I care to much for the odd camera angel but thank you for taking the time to show us something once so beautiful now in slow decay. When I was a kid my parents and I would wonder thru old abandon houses but never anything of this caliber. Well done good sir.
I agree, it was my new camera and the setting was SUPERWIDE, I have since changed it to WIDE and its much better. Half way through you can see the change as I visited this location 2 times. Thanks for watching ))
LOL! This is the 3rd vid of this house i've seen and alot more damage has been done but, still the same too. GEES! that van is still there and none of you guys will go film it! I wanna see what's in it!!!! Still sitting there in the same place. Very nice tho thanx a bunch!
Beautifull mansion. Very good.
just watched n liked your video n Subscribed, am huge into abandoned videos
watching this is giving me flash backs, like i just took a mouthful of shrooms.
This place is absolutely amazing.
totally agree!
Finally, you got to this place I'm commenting before I watch the video, hopefully you show different views then everybody else did knowing your video you probably will.
Very much enjoyed the video, you definitely did show different angles then everybody else did, hopefully this place gets saved and it doesn't end up like every other abandoned house, this place is for the most part very much intact besides a few windows and doors, very savable at this point and time.
Too bad you were unable to get in to the left hand side garage, I'm surprised those high-end appliances are still in this house.
It could be incorrect but one of the stories I heard on this place the homeowner got sick, she was a single mother quite wealthy and when she moved out the real estate agents are the ones who set up the grow up.
I forget, did you ever visit the abandoned cat lady house or what's left of it??
Thanks ARNFL! I am glad you enjoyed ) I think someone could save this house and make it a home again.
this place was nice at one time
+tina sales absolutely.
Yes it is
Very Nice!
Who owned it? Why did they leave? Please give background behind these houses.
I think if someone spends their time finding and exploring these places, it’s pretty nervey to expect a report on the background of the place and why it was abandoned.
Lois18866 wow! The person spends time finding and taking a video tour through abandoned places and you want a historical report on who owned it and why it was abandoned?? That is a very nervey remark
STUNNING!! THANKS FOR SHARING
Ms. Lacrease, it was my pleasure )
The staircase railing is gorgeous👍🏼
Gorgeous art deco inspired entrance OMG
Yes Thank for sharing
totally Awesome .. thank you so much
Even though it's abandoned,it makes me absolutely sick to see that someone has put graffiti in a few places.What the hell is wrong with people?!Jackasses have no respect:(
+IcePrincess751 it's so much worse now...((
God that really sucks!This is why I like animals more than people.
a damn shame.. seeing a home like this go to pieces
It's a very interesting explore but this one has bad feng shui. I don't like this house. It's gaudy, pretentious and ostentatious, even in the before pics. It's like someone with more money then sense designed it, like someone from a trailer park who hit the lottery. Just not my style at all.
I've seen even nicer homes left to ruin.
One that especially comes to mind was a place called EDGEMERE in Canada. Since been demolished and condominiums on the site now. $ 37-$45 million.
At that time it was THE MOST expensive property in Canada.
I really like your videos. Keep on making your great video. Thank you. 😊😎😎
Thanks Michael!
Seen several videos of this home. Yours would be the best except for the terrible round bending effect. That's a shame.
Ya,, I didn't like that either, it was a setting on my new camera. I have scaled it down. Thanks for the feedback. )
DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration Thanks for the response. I watched several of this house because I wanted to see if anyone was going to look in the garage. You were the only one to show it.
Beautiful home. It looks like the people just moved away, or either it was foreclosed on.
Wow that house is so cool! I wish it was renovated and that I could live there haha
I want that Mercedes power wheels😂 whoever's kid played with that is a CEO by now
Wow, this was great! thanks
Sooo Welcome!!!! ))))
beautiful house!
Wow, 9000 sq ft. How many rooms were there? Wonderful videos by the way!
I enjoyed your tour of this palatial estate - what a stunning mansion indeed! When you went through the kitchen area, it appeared as though the residents were disturbed in the middle of their day. Since you saw evidence of a growing operation, I conjecture what probably happened is that some person who knew about their operation snitched them off to the cops and then the cops busted in on them in the middle of the day or night and took them all away - that would explain why the kitchen looks like they were in the process of fixing a meal. Similar to the uploader , I, too; feel for the residents and their children - I mean; they're just going along minding their own business, doing what they do, and someone they trusted betrays their trust, and it's all over for them. I don't see anything particularly "sinister" like the uploader said, about a fire - things happen, and the only way a fire could be thought of as "sinister" would be if arson was suspected. Regardless, that's typically how cops make busts like this - because of a weak cog in the wheel.
This is by far my favorite
To those who go around Vandalizing these homes , Grow the 'F' up and have some Damn Respect for Other People's Belongings!!
Frankie Kelley I truly wish they would catch these f#%@ heads red handed and give them the max!!! Maximum jail time, hours and hours community service, a hefty fine, and make them pay restitution for everything damaged on the property! And is they don’t pay with in ample time, send them back to jail!✨✨✨
Love your videos and the places you explore. But is there any lens you can use that doesn't give that round effect? Makes it hard to get a sense of scale for the buildings.
I like the stills of what it once was very nice. I get lost with the pan over then going back. Was that a shell bed or a bathtub in the middle of the hall? How many baths were there seemed to be 3 with one bidie. And one sink toiled and bidie down stairs? If u do not wish to talk please include a written narration and some house history.
so who owns this place now because it's gorgeous I want it
Patrick Balyan a drug queen
Patrick Balyan apparently no one. It was demolished.
Sometimes if you know where these places are you can find out if you can purchase it by paying off back taxes some people just let them go because of taxes but maybe a bank owns it and it's for much more than it's worth if you can imagine that
I hear you remodeling fix this baby up
How do you know it has been demolished? 😢
This place is still salvageable so stunning love the pool and staircases
Its in really rough shape now (
+DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration 😦
I can't say that I think much in the builder's tastes in mansions. I'm just old fashioned. I just want to scream when I see such wasted places. The appliances looked new also.
It is very nice built architecturally and at some places seems in touched and used fire might have been the reason of its habitants to leave this awesome 9000sq ft built mansion ur efforts are good to explore these unseen abandoned houses so that we can also watch these all
Thank You Louise Potter Below To Give some previous owner info , R.I.P. Lady cancer Previous owner, & Very Sad the VANDALISM Inside. My the vandals themselves l8tr be Vehemently Vandalized In Their Future as payBack
i love your video's you stay focused on the house not showing old clothes or shit in the toilet etc. like some of the other channel's i watched. thank you, definitely want to see more of your video's.. sorry for the language but it's true.
