Exploring an Abandoned Dream Mansion - Ontario Canada
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 авг 2014
- I have been to this location 3 times, once in May of 2013 and not a access point could be found, again in April of 2014 and I was very lucky to find an open door. I made a choice to return in June of 2014 just to see how things changed. This video is a combination of 2 visits. You can see the changes that happened in the short time between visits.
Such a huge house, with features I have not seen in any regular house. A dance studio, grand staircase and my favorite was the elevator. It appears the house either had some salvaging done or looters took advantage of the imminent demise of this house. And I guess as long as it doesn't end in the trash, I don’t care either way. The property and landscape were clearly cared for and judging by the size of the garage on the back part of the property, I am going to guess they had an bad ass RV. Sadly not a lot of artifacts around for insight into who they people were who owner this places, but judging by all the affluence of this house..they had lots of $$$
Oddly I could not find a lot of info on the owners of this house, but what is very obvious is that it was in the way of “progress”. This house, at some point was someones dream home, and it wasn't that long ago. During the explores you can hear the tractors all around while I walk the outside of the house As of last week, it has been demolished.
Jan 2 2016 Update - / 683376421767671808
So I have learned that there are MANY conspiracy theorists who like to come up with many reasons why this house is being reno'd and not being demolished. HEre are links to several sites confirming the demo and government ownership. The house is gone, will never stand again. It is now a section of the 407 ETR Toll Highway that crosses the top of Durham Region.
BID FOR TENDER - (Who will demo the house all legal like)

Viewer donbeckham posted this added info for your pleasure...
The property is at 6225 Coronation Rd and was owned by Salah Abdelati. It was approximately 4.8 hectares. The Ministry of Transportation initially expropriated approximately 1 hectare of the 4.8 for works associated with the eastern expansion of Highway 407. The parties agreed subsequently that a full buyout was appropriate and they entered into a property purchase agreement pursuant to s. 30 of the Expropriations Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. E. 26 Abdelati subsequently commenced a claim seeking compensation for market value of the subject lands, among other matters, and equivalent reinstatement. Equivalent reinstatement means equivalent accommodation. Section 15 of the Act, which deals with equivalent accommodation states:
Upon application therefor, the Board shall, by order, after fixing the market value of lands used for residential purposes of the owner under subsection 14(1), award such additional amount of compensation as, in the opinion of the Board, is necessary to enable the owner to relocate his or her residence in accommodation that is at least equivalent to the accommodation expropriated. R.S.O. 1990, c.E.26, s.15.
That's going to be one hell of a house they have to put him in until he can find another "Dream Home".
Please end this argument.

Bless your heart for putting something in the pool for the poor animals. That was upsetting to see.
+Cat G I have a soft spot for the animals 😀
Your a good human.Wow wish i could find places to explore like this.when i was younger and spent time on my grandparents farm in AB, we would some times find old farm houses. we went to explore the one my Grandma was raised in and found old papers and such that had their names. it was so cool. hey if ever in Burlington area and want some company for a place close by let me know.Can i offer a bit of advice. Some times comments would be good as we dont always understand what you might be showing.
'Why won't they go in that room?'
Person - throws book into a pit of water -
'....oh lol'
Same👌
Makes me sad to think about how many people are living in poverty, some even homeless, and there are places like this sitting there that are more than likely never going to be touched 😔
I know! upsetting right? what a world we live in
When you live in a house like that one you have to earn it not just put in there because you are homeless. Someone had to work hard to pay for this then they lost it somehow due to death, divorce, couldn't pay for it anymore, prison, who knows a number of things. It is very sad to see how low lives just go in there and strip the wiring and cabinets and stairs etc. A bank should pick it up and fix it up and resell it on the market so another well-doing family can enjoy it. I loved the elevator it had. Most cool houses that cost a bundle have them.
Rick Dawson Yeah it's sad watching all of these abandoned house videos and seeing how people have destroyed them, I wish the banks would have fixed them up when they could because a lot of these abandoned houses are too far gone at this point. And I definitely see what you're saying with the homeless, certainly they can't just give these houses to them when others work hard their whole lives to be able to afford houses like this, I was just picturing something like a shelter being made out of these types of places so no one has to live on the streets.
Maybe if the state was to buy them up and fix them up for drug rehab houses or places like that to help people get off the nasty drugs that are killing this country. The state has a lot of our money and power to do something like this. But they would rather give it to illegal aliens to support them when they come over here like food stamps, welfare, cash aid, section 8 housing, free medical, free drivers license , free education and college, Free Free Free Free. Spend some of that on people who are born here and are American citizens like the Vets.
Most of what you spew is utter bullshit. No use in showing you any facts, as your mind is made up. I'm sure you feel you speak the truth.
One question: what should be done with the $13B paid in taxes by illegal immigrants that they will never see a dime of?
He doesn't have to talk... just showing you what the mansion looks like on the inside! Love it!
I find it pretty astonishing that someone would leave a house like this and not presume there'd be people out there desperate to know why? It's obviously a dream home for whoever lived there, and they evidently spent huge amounts of time, money & planning to build it. Plus, it hardly looks lived in either, so why would they just get up and go?
Baffling.
Also - that chair at 20:32
Creepy as FUCK
Alex Greenhill I thought the same... spoooky!!!
Maybe they couldn't afford the payments and overstepped their means and just walked away. Some people have done that. Who knows?
They could have been offered a substantial sum to leave. Many possibilities.
I worked for some people that paid 15,000 for a private jet to fly back east. Some people are in a totally different financial league and their decisions might be completely different from others. On a whim they might buy or sell a house, tear down something like this, and build another one. I've seen it. Could be many reasons a house like this is torn down.
murdered or died perhaps, on the run?
Could be foreclosed or a government seizure.
only a true animal lover would have put that board in the pool. well played my man. be blessed
+wanderdworld you made me smile tonight ) thanks my friend )
you are quite welcome. good men sometimes give them selves away. i believe you to be one. great channel, never stop wondering:D
what does putting the board in the pool do?
If you go back to the swimming pool footage you will see dead mice in the pool. They reach over to get a drink and fall in. the water level is too low for them to reach back up on the step and they swim until they drown. This Gentleman recognized this and put the board in for them to swim to and make an exit.
wanderdworld
ah okay thanks
What an insanely beautiful home. You can tell whoever was building it was really putting a lot of attention to the details. The bay windows in the great room by the kitchen, the lift, the rich wood in the den (?), the tray ceilings, the amazing built-ins, the turreted roof on the pool house, etc, etc. It's just stunning. What a shame.
I like the fact that nothing was said during this video :)
i dont 😁🤔
Serena Livingston me too! All the talking is so obnoxious at times. This is so soothing and peaceful
Serena Livingston didn't say not 1 peep..... very peaceful.
Serena Livingston ❤️ Well, I for one, would have liked some Research done, so we could have known alittle about what happened. The info is public knowledge, some of it. They don't do any research on any of these places before they walk through them, & they could...
L. Wall The description is full of info about this house
such a beautiful home to just be left to waste
Dude YOU ARE AWESOME! Putting that beam in there for little animals that get stuck in there to get out. That was wonderful!
thehappyhoof lol...ya, I am a sucker for wildlife..RUN FREE little frogs!
***** I thought that was the reason you did that. Thank you!!!!
Thanks for your time to write all that info in description...yes Ive read all of that.
Thank you for putting the wooden plank into the pool.
+Boo Vaher Your welcome )) I think i could save a few critters!
+DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration im confused, what does the plank do to help?
I saw this video months back and somehow found my way back to it. This was a beautiful house. From the finishes looks like it's from the late 80's of 90's, yet it's still has a timeless design. The images are still available on good earth.
GregThatDudeTv I could not agree more my friend...and well said!
GregThatDudeTv I would tend to think this house was built in between 1994 to 1996
This house was demolished in order to build a highway. I'm sure the owners were paid a lot of money to abandon this house and find a new location. What I wonder is if they built this exact same home on another lot, or if they changed the construction plan. Pretty strange to think there could be an exact, finished replica of this ruin somewhere else. Awesome video, thanks for posting.
Several amazing things about this video. No stupid music. No self-congratulatory selfies. No gang tags all over the walls. Not too much senseless destruction. You let the viewer explore and draw their own conclusions. KUDOS THUMBS UP! PLEASE tell me you left it the way you found it...
+Jet Gardner thanks so much for your insight into my vids. I appreciate the positive feedback 👍
@@DaaDeeOhAdventures I love what you do. I am a mystery author who writes about Last Will and Testament with abandoned homes either as the inheritance or beside the inheritance. Synchronistically I found you. Fabulous thorough...and sad work. But even though it is gone, your video lives on. I subscribed. love you.
I agree. We can actually watch a video of an abandoned mansion and not the face of the commentator talking through 90% of the video. Or watching a video of the videographer walking around looking up at the ceiling or out a window. I find that very annoying. I want to see the content, not the person providing the content. It is so irritating!!!!
What a waste just for a highway. everything in there is practically new!
Practically new? That house was easily over 30 years old.
I like the silence, just as though I were walking through with you, exploring and wondering about the people who had this house built. It looks like it would have been a nice, peaceful place for a home, where you could watch the seasons and the changes they made on the landscape.
its amazing how some people make 50K a year and others 500K and then some 5000K+. you know how they say money cannot buy happiness? I think to some degree it can. I wish i could live and not worry about rent. even one bedroom apartment would do.
+Mazxlol money can indeed buy happiness.
+Mazxlol It's true. A study was done where they figured out that the minimum salary to actually be happy is about 75K. So yes, to some degree, money does buy happiness.
Here's a link to an article about it.
content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,2019628,00.html
+Mazxlol If you get a Union job with a good pension then you will live with the security knowing
that you will be able to quit working, get all the quality couch time in you want and spend the checks as they roll in.
+Jodie Kalbfleisch Makes sense, i am still not happy, i need a small raise! :D
+Mazxlol i make 10k a year
I like the fact that vandals haven't been in there to mark their territory!
It's amazing to see a place like this untouched without a bunch of broken glass, destruction and graffiti everywhere. Although you are in Canada and not the U.S. so it makes more sense. Great vid!
2 different owners lived there over 25 years. We worked there and it was stunning when it was lived in, the back bay window in the kitchen had a baby grand piano sitting there (1st owner) The goverment expropriate the house and property (10 acres) as you are aware. The first owners keep it beautiful nothing out of place when you walked in your jaw would hit the floor. The iron gates at the front all custom made were something to see. The 1st owners were very proud of it and you could tell, the second owner's let it run down which was such a shame. Hope this helped
Diane w Great back story..thank you!!!
***** No problem, I came across your video the other day from FB. I have watched some of your videos and it's nice to see someone appreciate what the houses were. I have worked in over a hundred of the houses you have posted (the company I worked for had the contract on these houses) and I also use to live in Claremont and now in Brooklin. Like you I love learning the history of the houses so many times when I was at a property I would try to find out anything about the history. We always had the blue prints of the property so it was a little easier to find info out or people or neighbour were still living there. Just in case you having been to this area there are some really beautiful house in the area of hwy 57 east and conc 6-7. I was in one that had actual hiding doorways in the wall you couldn't see.
It looked to me as though the home had never been finished being built. No kitchen cabinets, No doors on the closets. Hot tub looked very clean, unused. Just seems very un-finished to have ever been lived in.
Leeann Cottrill people went into the house and took everything of value
Diane w I used to live in Locust Hill and had friends in Claremont. So, this house is from the Pickering Airport Project? With so many homeless people it is a sin to see such beautiful homes go to ruin,empty and lifeless.
I love this man the fact that he did that for animal warms my heart
Lol I'm a sucker for wildlife
Amazing living space on top floor. I love all the stairs. Glad to see the vandals have not visited. Lots of room for homeless folks. Thanks for sharing and be safe.
Governments reclaim land all the time.
I am wondering if the owner had prior knowledge of the future toll road.
Local government should have never let him buy the land, let alone start building on it. WTF.
+Joe Whyte yep......can't do much but pay taxes in Canada
Yes agreed this is totally insane
+Stephen Prokopich yeah! Mr. Selfie was in Calgary this weekend having his picture taken with self-important CEOs while flipping pancakes at the Stampede. He was wearing a western shirt that I have (a girls' western shirt-LOL). Our stupid mayor and premier were in the parade- showing off their awful riding skills. What a week- when the politicians swoop in to be seen and try to be heard.
+Downhomesunset Isn't it a shame we can't just live life without politicians & religious zealots and just get along as people? Sigh!
+Nana Ann is really is a shame. Think about how much better off we would be without these greedy slobs at the trough sucking our money away.
Gotta love it. A nice, big highway plowing through. That is obscene. Beautiful home. Represents a lot of work. Great vid as usual.
carole Hayden Thank you so much for watching!!! And of course...the hwy fn sucks!
It hurts to see this place abandoned!! Let me have it!!I will Love it 4ever n ever n ever until the end!! Man what a gorgeous home!!
+Sarah Stauffer Could you pay the electric bill ? Not me. Awesome place though.
+WH Not just the electric bill but the property taxes alone would be killer.
+Fish n Dogs It's was also torn down over a year ago.
+Dustin Bradford The electric would be more than most people's rent or even a mortgage payment on a normal house.
i remember watching this video during a middle school summer, is forgotten the video name but the pictures still rested in my mind. Years later, I finally found it again.
Good job, & excellent info. Most of all thanks for the support beam in the pool so precious little & big,if necessary animals could get out back onto dry land.
The property is at 6225 Coronation Rd and was owned by Salah Abdelati. It was approximately 4.8 hectares.

R.S.O. 1990, c.E.26, s.15.
That's going to be one hell of a house they have to put him in until he can find another "Dream Home".
Here is what the property looked like in Sept. 2009
s18.postimg.org/wrb13f821/6225_Coronation_Rd.jpg
And, Google street view shows the gate with all the trees and landscape. Very beautiful. What a shame. :(
***** That doesn't make any sense to me. That house if its the one in Whitby. On 6225 Coronation Rd still looked like that in 2011 there is even garbage at the road in the google maps. I know they don't update those often but if they initial bought him out to initially go through his property. It was my understanding that the 407 was going to meet or run parallel to highway 7 which runs south of that property the main artery and hook up with the 115 highway. If you look on google maps now that road after it hits around 6142 Coronation Rd as of 2014 that road switches back to 2011 nice beautiful road LOL It just seems weird that money is no object when these roadways go through. Or, god forbid impede anything? Is it going through that particular property line? Its seems odd he was killed? I also read about a hockey player so many stories. Well it was enough to get this guy who posted it well over a million hits. Those Arabs have more money they you can shake a stick at this is probably is the equivalent of a little bungalow in the middle east. LOL
It's acers btw...what's the words you used? lol
+Kim Johnston what doesn't make sense? click his links makes perfect sense...you dont
Tami Gorman, Are you seriously for real? did your mom not teach you, If you haven't got anything nice to say then say NOTHING at all? There always has to be someone with a rude comment who thinks they are smarter than everyone else. It was just a comment GET OVER IT!! The comment saying "that this is not making sense to me" was pertaining to the property that was forced to be sold because the highway was going through. The road going through was, or seemed to be quite a ways south of the property. I don't know what your comment is referring to with "acres" not that I give a rats ass what you think about my or others peoples comments on here. If you cant find your way to be kind how about you just read the comments and move along. how about that?? You're life can't be that bad at home that you feel a need to come online and bully or harass people you don't even know can it?
Kim Johnston oh really. .looks like that's what your doing..I stated facts an opinions I never said anything wrong yet you attacked me in your first comment to me and I responded hypocrit
mark my words im gonna build this exact same house god willing
Jacob Smith right right..
Jacob Smith go for it
Why not take this one. So sad it's being wasted
You can do it !!
Trish Baum it was demolished 4 years ago :-(
Really cool walk through!! It was something else being able to take a tour in it with you. Thanx so much for sharing it with us, although now my house feels really really small!!
Amazing workmanship and so much money in there. Very nice that you put that board in the pool for the little critters to get out.
My favorite part, the fantastic narration.
such a beautiful house with a beautiful view, it makes me sad to see places like this be abandoned. :(
GIVE ME GIVE ME....I love this house a Dream House it is for sure ! Thanks for the look .
Thank You for putting that board in the pool for the animals, so sad to see a beautiful home wasted.
Awwww, I was waiting for him to drop the camera, stand in the corner facing the wall and give us a look at the blair witch in the jacuzzi......
Haha I shit my pants when I saw that guy standing in the corner hahaha
Thanks for sharing. It sure is a shame to see a mansion like this just abandoned and wrecked. Someone definitely could have bought it from the bank for cheap, but not now. Someone's dream was built, and changes in life made it fade away to be left as nothing more then a memory.
Propinionation The problem wasn't money..it was urban sprawl...it was in the way of a highway expansion.
407 i believe... i have passed by a house that looks just like it...
Joseph Barrett they're also expanding 400 all the way to surbury.
I saw that pool with those poor dead guys floating and thought 'he should get one of those boards and slide it into the pool' and then you did. You're a good dude.
What an incredible house....just breathtaking to watch this. Thanks for sharing it with us, love your channel!
House was built to amazingly high standards it is absurdity to put down something this well made imo
I'm wondering how would feel like to live in this house, have kids in this house, going through winter, living the real wasp lifestyle. The secrets it keeps, the stories this house holds, must be awesome. Also heart-breaking thinking about the original owners, going back there and seeing how trashed the house became.
The craftsmanship is stunning, you americans have a beautifuly way to create details, not even paying millions of dollars you would have a house like that here in Brazil, because we absolutely dont have in our blood that kneen eye for details. Congrats amazing video. Sorry for my english.
Nill Teixeira What a great and detailed comment , thank you! I agree with all your points and you explained it perfect. Thank you for enjoying and please check out what else I have to offer!!!
Is this in canada ?? or the USA...
Aperture Shots The title says Ontario Canada
thought so...but as someone mentiones American ....I was wondering if I was reading wrong
Aperture Shots I mentioned wrong, sorry.
Cool video! Like the fact that it was to that point of completion, and then abandoned.
that was so sweet to put the board there for the animals. ty u r a great guy!!
for such a large house I'm surprised how cheap it was from the laminate counters to the drop-down ceiling in the basement to the pool out back
H.H. foxaddict agree, totally tacky. Even if it hadn’t been scheduled for demo due to the airport, it wouldn’t have lasted. Inferior design and construction, nasty finishing.
And the plastic kitchen sink faucet. What were those silver looking tools/instruments he picked up from the fireplace? I've never seen an explorer pick up anything and not put them back in place. Just curious what they were that was picked up?
For such a large house, the amenities felt very cheap. From the wood that makes up the staircase, to the moulding and faucets - a lot of money was spent to build that house from the ground up, but not much spent on the stuff that would actually make it feel expensive.
+Chaise not Chase Yes it looks very cheap and dated.
Well it is Canada ...
+Chaise not Chase That seems to be the trend these days with a lot of higher-end houses. Make it look impressive but cheap out on the items that you don't seem. High-end house with a downdraft stove.. then laminate countertops? Even modest homes in the US market have granite or quartz.
Kind of like a luxury car with genuine plastic woodgrain trim all over the place.
Alan Maier
a shame
That means it was a spec house, done large & on the cheap by a half-assed first time developer with no knowledge of what will appeal to an actual millionaire buyer.
Thank you so much for not using "eerie" music or making silly comments. You are letting your surroundings tell the story. I'm loving your videos. :)
That was cool what you did for the mice, btw.
Oh No! It was demolished? How terribly sad. So much work and love. And all it needed was someone to care enough to help it out. Thanks for the video.
+Nechelle Donnelley No matter how much they had the gov't wanted it and got it.
What a shameful waste
leann lewis I could not agree more!
The more I see beautiful houses like this torn down, the less I appreciate the value of any house. It seems to make you feel like everything is just dispensable like we live in a styrofoam cup world.
INCREDIBLE!. I CANT IMAGINE THE COST TO HEAT. WOW! I'M FLABBERGASTED AT THE SIZE AND HAPPY IT'S NOT TAGGED UP AND TRASHED.
I agree.....a really great human being for looking out for the animals with the plank....you brought me to tears with that gesture...good people are blessed my friend....keep being you😇
Maaaaan this was AWESOME!!!! Great vid, incredible lay out , thanks!
J White No prOB J, glad you enjoyed!
***** I enjoyed watching it
Brenda Gutierrez very sad though it was demolished = city/county plans should have been known long before permits were issued to build this lovely home ... I think no one ever lived there & the city/county messed up big time issuing permits to build there ~~
for such a huge house they had a small pool
+papahmatt Rather a small pool then a huge one where you can drown in.. good sexual comment if you get me haha
LoL
papahmatt lool
+Krissy Ciammitti But they had a hot tub and huge bath tubs!
+Krissy Ciammitti it was a "reflection" pool
It was very kind of you to put that slab of wood in the pool. You get a thumbs up from me :)
wow, that house is huge and looks beautiful. Too bad they can't live there. Thanks for the video, i really enjoy it.
24:02
The perfect picture of a tacky McMansion which will miss to none: plain beige for the frontage, no sense of how to crown windows in relation to the rooftop, outcentered extension making the dormers outcentered at their turn, Oversized and out of place palladian window... Besides, why the hell is that little window at the far left? it's dead close to the roof! Rich people have no taste, nowadays, all they do is flaunt their money. I see no point in living in one of these humongous abodes. I'd rather get something tinier with fancy and academic architecture.
lmao I agree. this place looks like something I'd build on the Sims when it all goes wrong.
@WinterGirl So, how do you feel about the oval lights in the doors?
Well said, beige upon beige upon beige. another great example of a modern monstrosity found all over the world. Tacky, jumble of architectural styles,title or no awareness of basic principles. Suburban architecture supersizes. Thanks for posting!
So 2000s
I would feel so so weird if I had to leave my house behind and later on finding a video of it on the internet with someone exploring it..But videos like this are so cool
Marieke Wouterse I often wonder if anyone sees their old home on you tube being explored and how weird that would be and emotional I would say
I like how this house explorer shows the outside of the house too and not just the inside.
A very wonderful work, DaaDeeOh.
I could understand how sad and how frustrated you are when you threw something in the water and also put a wood into the pool because these guys could leave their place in decay while many others are homeless
Thank you for sharing
Thank you June, I appreciate your comment!
Wow, they even build a "swimming pool" in the basement !
Wow ! What a place. I am surprised that it hasn't been looted and torn apart. Just basic neglect that I can see. Upstairs is monstrous ... yet no real windows for cross-breezes and air flow? I would be creeped out in a house that big. Boogie man around every corner. Give me a little cottage in the country any day. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Double ditto on the little cottage out in the country!
Sunny C I am fairly certain that I just drove in the vicinity of that house on my way to get dog food (just south of Ashburn). So many road closures right now with construction. It's so sad to see Windfield Farms demolished with a mega highway being put in it's place. Noted the extension of the 'transformer hwy' that is already in place now into Durham along Winchester. I think that is what I noticed first when I travelled on the 407 - endless transformers as far as the eye can see on the south side of the mega hwy with monstrous condo buildings on the north. Progess? Not in my humble opinion. Scarey and disgusting I say.
Your urbex vids are my favourite because you don't yammer on throughout the video and you are systematic in how you go through the house, but you get my thumbs up for putting the plank in the pool.
Very nice of you to put the board in the pool so if any animal falls in they can get out, very kind
THis is insane! I wish I could find stuff like this over in our area. This place looks beautiful. What a shame it's gone to waste. Great content though :) Cheers from Detroit!
Ahh Detroit, home of some of the best urbex locations on the continent ) Thanks for the kind words )
DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration Hey you're not wrong! the buildings here are everywhere! take it easy:)
DaaDeeOh's Urban Exploration 30k and you pimp that baby up
Yeah, that's dirt cheap.
Even if it wasn't finished there were millions of dollars already buried in there, just look at the electrical switchboard, if it was "an emergency" I thought that being rich meant that even if emergencies arose you could go on with whatever you were doing.
Abandoned even before someone got to spend the night in there, what is wrong with people?
John Wilkinson The house was built in 1994 and it was lived in.
Uifk
The owners had to move out of it for some highway expansion shit.
I know that
Lol man lol lmao haha lol XD
Great video. Glad I read the description. I kept thinking the house looked so familiar (from the outside) ..... I don't live in the area but I drive through there to visit family.
this was actually on of the first abandoned houses videos I've ever seen and I actually got into urban exploring becuase of this video thanks for making it
+halloween all year long to be an inspiration makes me smile huge!
Wow... Why would anybody leave such a beautiful house?
I wonder that too
Friedrich von Krauss youre human too?
Friedrich von Krauss human in body only right
Friedrich von Krauss ur 2 edgy
Bert-Jan Weening The house next-door to me was abandoned for almost 2 years. The former NFL player was in the slam
awe! Did you put that piece of wood on pool so animals could climb out?
if so...FUCKING AWSOMED
Yes )
Fruity Pebbles with
This place is so sad. ....
Thank you for posting all the info on this property.
So sad the man & his family never got to live in and enjoy it. imminent domain sucks.
+Cindy McGuire your very welcome Cindy )
excellent information. wish everyone researched like you do. tyvm
what a waste
+peligro20 If it was sold due to highway extension then the government did buy it. There is a whole town that the gov bought for an airport, and now sits almost completely abandoned.
+peligro20 the video paints a pretty clear image...
you can see furnishings placed neatly in a room (suggesting they are expensive and to be recycled) and you can see wine on the kitchen counter suggesting the owners were celebrating because they probably received more than what the property was worth
+Tyler McDougall which town is this?
Ranma It is just North of Pickering, Ontario (outside of Toronto. The town is called Broehme and the government bought most of the houses sometime in the 70's or 80's in order to build an airport for freight delivery, so the planes would not have to land in Toronto and make that airport less busy.
All the houses are boarded up and maybe 3 or 4 businesses are still there, as there is such strong opposition to the airport, and building has been delayed, and delayed and delayed.
+Tyler McDougall Cool, I don't live very far from there at all. I had no idea there is almost a whole town that is not used.
Do people not know how to read the description!?
Thank You for sharing all the details,
This house is gorgeous. I can't believe someone isn't living there. I would love to own that place.
I live in the area and was shocked at the cost to buy out the new homes,sady paid for buy our taxes.
A friend of mine had a house in the area and got $35 million.
the chair sitting in the top floor of the garage, I could almost see the poor guy, who owned the house, sitting there thinking about all the hours and money waisted having it built only to have someone else come and knock it down.
Thank you for putting that board so anything else won't be trapped! It's incredible what stupid things people will say thank you for that too!
I like this UrbEx Style.
Thanks for posting!
All the Best.

Big, too expansive for my taste but an incredible mansion. Can't call it cozy, eh? I truly enjoyed your vid. What a waste to have had it demolished.
carole Hayden I could not agree more!
This house design looks like its been build in early 2000
Your videos are the best. I loved the skate. The old houses in Canada are so nice to watch. Here in the USA there is always tons of graffiti. I hate that. You are respectful to those old places when you film. I like that.
I love to come back and look at this beautiful house. I am thinking the owner was lucky the highway people bought the house for the highway as I do not think the soil inspection was done to see how low the water level was. It seems several rooms were flooded because of a water problem which also causes mildew. The house would have been worthless with mildew problems unless they had a big pump, lol. I hope they saved a lot of expensive things in this house to use in another beautiful house!
What a beautiful home
Yes it was. But three people agreed to the same conclusion with three separate opinions to the matter in a previous conversation I just got through reading. My brain was blown away. I was astonished because their conclusion consisted of three separate opinions that had no correlation to each other what so ever. Please if you could read that convo and let me know if it makes sense to you as I'm currently feeling that my brain may just be fucked up (from inhaling too much paint), thanks.
that house is too good to be abandoned, if I owned it, i would fix it up real well. I would put a big screen tv, a bed and a killer sound system in the room at 2:34, then i'd turn that room in 3:46 into a bar/party room, for the bathroom in 4:20, I'd repaint it sky blue, and that rm in 4:50, I'll turn that into a guest house, and that room in 5:27, I'll turn it into a gym. and that room in 7:32 will be my dance studio, and since i don't have any need for a sauna, i'll turn it into a tool shed. and that bathroom in 15:19 is already perfect, s i won't change it, and that room in 7:05 would make the perfect home theater.
NO you wouldn't you're a DREAMER
And ur a party pooper
Josh Goddard NO a Realist, Big difference
But its good to have dreams :)
Maybe Its Hunted yahoo answers
I'm glad to see that it was not vandalized! If those homes could tell their story, I'm sure it would be a good one for us to all learn about. It looks as all they needed to do was the final finish and they could have resold it perhaps to another family.
This was more than likely a very beautiful home, I can't believe how massive it is, I see their getting it ready for demolition
What do people do with these houses? Do they just remain like that? Because i saw some pretty useful stuff in it that could be repaired and reused....
They get demolished
theblueyoshi33866 Shame.,...so many things that can be reused :(
+Alexa B Me too. It looks they PO's spent 1.1 M. on that "house" and gave up. WTF?
ddd228 Blame whoever built the highway, because that's the reason the house was destroyed.
+theblueyoshi33866 by who and who has to pay for it and what about the rest of the property
I think that house is just being renovated.
+Nafir Alvarez nope
+Nafir Alvarez don't think it was even finished. and now it's gone :(
+Drew Jackman nope it got demo two years ago
Spike18ism What! Damn that's a shame
Rez and out of money
Hey nice video. My grandparents used to own this house from the 90's to 07 Rutha and Harold kaaz. good to see it's got 1 million views
This home has (sadly) been demolished to make way for a highway/road.
no doubt in its heyday, this was an awesome home.......thanks for sharing
if I had the money to I would today renovate/ finish building this house and live in it
it was demolished.
+Alexander Craw (aucard822) that's what you say now, but if you had that kind of money you would realize how hard you had to work for it and probably not be willing to spend it on this ugly ugly uuuuuuugly house. i can see why they stopped. it's gross.
+ModernSims still would've been worth it compared to a small rancher house in south Jersey
Alexander Craw isrite its beautiful wot a house I'd luv to live in it
ModernSims Yea! My neighbor had a house like this and it took everything he had to keep it standing. Now its a rental w real estates keeping it up. These houses will consume your life. And for what?
OMG I'M READING ALL THESE COMMENTS. ..PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE CAN'T FIX THE FRIGGIN THING UP ITS GONE TORN DOWN...WTF. LOL...PAY ATTENTION. ..
+Tami Gorman but maybe someone can fix it up?
Collin Holdfield no its been torn down...it's a shame because it's beautiful
I was kidding ;)
Collin Holdfield oh ok lol sorry I thought you were serious usually when people are joking around they always put the lol's on the end:)
And it's gone for something as stupid as a highway extension
Wow such a beautiful home!
Omg !! That's so beautiful !! It's such a shame it's just sitting there empty like that and not finished. Don't know what happened , but that is so sad . Dang , I'm might have to move to Canada and become a squatter . LOL !! IJK.....!! But it is so beautiful and I will just have to dream of have a beautiful home like this one day . Thanks for sharing !!
Got demolished so they could ectend highway
Lmao I literally live a minute away from here!! Been in this one and there are also others in the area like this. They are abandoned because of hwy 407 construction, given money for the property to move out. They use to literally have like 20 cars in the drivewy
Oh, when did they leave?
About 2 years ago
Oh
Video description says that he was in this house first time in may of 2013... that was almost three and half years ago, so yeah, you are lying...
That would be stupid to lie about , perhaps it was 2013 when it first abandoned and time just flies , doesn't feel like that long ago though
And an elevator, no less. Looks like it was never finished or else someone is salvaging it. Strange design, doesn't really look like a home.
Beautiful house . Who would need something so big ? I'd be afraid to live in something so big .
the music at the end, scared the hell outta me :D
