Kenny Rogers ABANDONED $8.5 Million Dollar Mega Mansion | The Party Mansion
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 ноя 2022
- Sitting in the middle of one of the most wealthy neighborhoods in America. This $8.5 million dollar mansion once owned by country music legend Kenny Rogers. The mansion has become nothing but an eyesore to the neighbors. weeds have grown to be over 7 feet tall from the neglect of the landscape as well as an in ground pool that is full of algae. But what could have possibly happened for it to be this way. But let’s go back to the beginning. The mansion was first built in 1990 as a castle like estate with over 15,000 square feet of living space featuring 6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a 4 car garage and full basement with a bar, state of the art gym and much more. Now one thing that makes this place very special is that it was once owned by the late and great Country music star Kenny Rogers. He lived like a king in this marvelous mansion until 2006 when he sold it for $8.5 million dollars to a very wealthy family from Nigeria. This family ran many different dermatology locations throughout many states. Unfortunately there seemed to be some shady business going on. Around 2018 things took a turn for the worse for the family. The feds were after them for owing $6.5 million in back taxes. But the story doesn’t end there. After they left a family member was in charge of watching over the family estate. But what was really happening was the mansion was being rented out for events like weddings, and even music videos for Rappers Offset, 21 Savage, and Russ. But in just 17 months the police were called to the estate 100 times for noisy parties. The final straw was when rapper YFN lucci had a party at the mansion where many things got damaged and the police were called again. The town ultimately was fed up with the mansion being used for business and they shut the operation down. Ever since the grand estate has sat vacant and abandoned with many signs of neglect. So join me today and let’s see what’s left!

It does not take long for nature to reclaim the land. This house must have been superb when Kenny lived there. R.I.P. Kenny.
Kenny had it for sale
@@reginaturner2719 kenny sold it to these people. Who had no respect for it.
It doesn't matter how wealthy a certain demographic is. You still can't take the ghetto out or teach class
I was not born to live in mansions! Beautiful place and peaceful 🥳
Kenny is no different than the devil himself
Ask his daughters, especially his daughter Carol. Funny how these famous people always sell to some "foreign" family that takes advantage of the American people and runs free to their country.
Sony.
Sony.
Sony.
Is the true evil.
I once worked as a carpenter on a new 11,000 sq ft house being built in denver for a wealthy elderly couple. In my opinion, these large houses are a waste of money and resources
More money than brains.
I know. It’s kind of cringe when I imagine feeling at home living in one of these huge houses.
your opinion doesn't matter.
Money does 😂
Yes, I had a friend that built a $87 MM mansion in Bel Air a few years ago. Once it was built - he could not afford to live in the house and lost it and then died shortly after from Cancer.
@@uuuultra opions built RUclips
I'll give $50.00 for it right now, and promise not to piss off the neighbors even once......AND, I'll pay the back taxes; $10 a month until it's paid. I'm good for it.
😂 Me too!!
It WASN'T Kenny Rodgers house anymore he had SOLD it to these people who apparently had more money than sense!
what do you mean
Exactly the title is click bait. He sold the house years before he passed away.
@@Dawnsdelightsart He never said Kenny was the last owner, but he WAS the most prominent owner of the home.
He told us it was Kemny Roger's home n he sold it to people from Nigeria so what r u complaining about!!😊
Rest in paradise Kenny Rogers ... Thank you for all the wonderful music that you provided us all.
that is a beautiful mason too bad it aboned
@@Tgif1111 OMGGGGGG I LOVE IT WHY WOULLD YA SAY THAT ONG
Kenny Rogers was the best!
Was watching yesterday his involvement in making the We are World video, such A nice caring and likeable man
Got to give Lionel Richie much of the credit for the songs Lionel wrote and GAVE to Kenny. Prince also provided a few also.
It is blowing my mind how such a beautiful house is abandoned and in amazing shape considering anyone with any intention can just walk through it ... absolutely unreal
@Deconstructing Fenn by Shy Guy dude i never thought abt it like that, but you're damn right! i would def build the house i want with my 10 mil instead of this!
@Deconstructing Fenn by Shy Guy
Makes sense.
@Deconstructing Fenn by Shy Guy Maybe they were a Kenny Rogers fan? They were into pharmaceuticals so they had major money, they could afford to indulge their celebrity fandom tastes! LOL!
They chose to buy an already built mansion
So...I'm a king in Nigeria...i just need some help....😂
Wow…can only imagine how beautiful this was when Kenny Rodger’s owned it!❤️🙏🏻
Imagine how beautiful this mansion was in it's glory days. Thanks for this video. RIP Kenny Rogers.
Thanks for the post! I worked with Kenny Rogers, back in the 70’s when things weren’t going so well for him. He was a very nice guy! 🙏🏻 RIP
I met a stage security/bouncer who said Kenny Rogers was the nicest celeb he ever met. :)
@@thereadingvoyage He was very kind, & understanding. At that time, before his career rebounded, I couldn’t get anyone to use a film recording of a past concert of his, that we wanted to use as a promo for his nightclub run with us. He brought it in with him for our use. It would have been free to use, but he was viewed as washed up, & no one would broadcast it.
He was a completely lovely man. I am glad I had a chance to work with him, & that things eventually turned around.
@@cherchezlavache5183 Awesome story thanks for sharing! Glad you had that wonderful experience with him! :)
That's so AWSOME you were lucky
@@aprilestepp5791 I truly was. He was a lovely man. 👍🏻
It’s all so extra that it loses the coziness factor for me. Larger isn’t always better and it seems as though people who end up buying these kind of homes never keep them long. It’s only their turn and it’s short. In order to maintain and keep something like this it takes enormous wealth for taxes, maintenance and upkeep.
totally agree!
And that covered bed on that platform in the middle of a huge room, I wouldn't want to sleep there.
I agree to extravagant to feel at ease lol
"Cool" is definitely not a word i would associate with that hideous place. And you're right it takes some serious "wealth" to keep up joints like that and also the right people do oversee them. And the way they build things today those places are falling down before they're even finished. Not like a real chateau or castle built to last through the ages. these are little cardboard playhouses by comparison.
The interior features and finishes are gaudy & unappealing IMHO.
It wouldn't take much to make this house shine again. Get some cleaning crews to do deep cleaning and buffing, get a lawn care crew and a construction crew to fix the minor issues. I hope someone bought it.
I remember years ago K.R. was going to play at our county fair. My mom was so excited! She wanted to go see him really bad. She begged and bribed me to go with her so I went. It was fun to see her so happy. It is the only time she ever went to go see a famous singer. When we got there it wasn't like the kind of concerts I'd been to. It was rather small. They had a stage up front and it was an auditorium type thing with seats Every seat was filled with people happy to be there and looking forward to seeing the singer. He was late, really late, 1/2 hour to maybe 45 minutes. After the introduction and applause he came out and sat on one of the tall stools that were on the stage. He started to sing if you could call it that. He was shouting more than singing and off key. He strumed his guitar like a 5 year old might. He nearly fell off his stool a couple times. He was drunk. He began insulting the people there, calling us ignorant hillbillies, worthless and all sorts of names. The people who had been happy were stunned and disgusted and confused. We watched and listened for a bit and slowly people began to leave. My mom was so disapointed. We didn't talk about it much after wards except to decide he was an alcoholic. And most likely a really mean, bad man at heart. The only silver lining was I never got asked to see some country western singer again. eeh hah!
Oh no! He lost a lot of fans that day and I can't help but think that was a common occurrence for him. Sad
Your poor Mom! She was so excited to see him and then he acted like that ☹️
L
Very sad story. 😮 😢 But it's absolutely new for the, that he should was an alcoholic. Never heard something about drinking, or smoking.
I’m so sorry that it was such a bad experience for you and your mom. I’ve seen him in concert 3 times and they were all great concerts. He never acted like that in any of the ones I’ve seen him in.
Kenny was balling back then. Building mansions, opening up chicken joints, and touring.
When you come home and get the feeling someone broke in and is hiding somewhere you would spend an hour looking around and still not be sure.
Omg that would be me totally 😂
Spooky ❤. Thank you for sharing.
dogs ftw.
I wonder how a couple or even a family can live in these huge mansions with all these rooms and fill them up. They must always have lots of guests to use all the rooms. Especially the countless bathrooms. I would feel very lost. I've now seen a few videos from this channel and I want to tell you that I think it's great how much respect and esteem you show for these houses.
This abandoned home is eerie. Why are so many ten million dollar homes abandoned in the US?
Billionaires have many homes and make up a very small segment of the population.
Millionaires worth $50 to several hundred millions are plentiful at about 250,000.
Why aren’t contractors purchasing renovating and reselling?
Strange.
As odd as half of billionaires row in NYC abandoned….
It’s simple. People with money build what they want. High-end properties like this were built for one person. The next person wants something else. Simple. It will be torn down like all the rest.
also good way to launder shady money.
It’s not Kenny Rogers’ fault because the house is abandoned. The last owners are responsible for its neglect.
I know, It's not Kenny's abandoned mansion because he sold it in 2006 so he had nothing to do with the mansion since then. So it should be a couple from Nigeria who bought the home of Kenny Rogers abandons mansion.
But, but, that wouldn't get anybody to watch the video. 😂
Yes. I don't think Kenny Rogers name should be mentioned throughout this Tour. He sold it!! Some viewers might think Mr. Rogers abandoned and neglected this Manson. SAD.
Correct@@glendajames4938
@@glendajames4938He is only calling Kenny name to get more people to watch the video
Surprised it hasn't been vandalized and still has power. What a beautiful place , sure hope someone can take it over and bring it back to life ! What a crazy bedroom. Thanks for the tour BigBankz 👍
Yeah. I'm surprised someone hasn't stripped it of all the appliances.
@coobay4786 it's gated house, with gated community, inside a weathly protected area that pays for POLICE security, not security guards.
100% still has active security cameras
Sony owns this house. This is a house you go to when you're ready for your soul to turn evil. You make sacrifices here
@llamacebu216 If it's well protected, how did this guy get in to make this video.
@@llamacebu216
What is the point of watching over an abandoned house that not even the neighbors want there ?
I'm sure Black Rock will end up with the deed.
I just found this channel like yesterday and I love it!🙂
Just found this channel the other day and I love it!
Thank you for providing all of the history and how it went from being built by the owner and then how it got to the state that it’s in today. You’re one of the only channels that actually provides the lead-in history to the mansion that is always missing on other channels. Thank you
Thanks that was a fun tour. A tad spooky and lonely though.
I agree! He does a great job 👍

Donate it to the veterans that need a home and they will fix it up.
Kenny Rogers what a "Beautiful home". He had such a good singing voice for country music. He was married 5 times and music was his passion, Rest in peace Kenny. 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
Hello how's the weather over there
The home was named ‘Lionsheart Manor’ thus all the lions heads. It’s also around 23,000 sq feet of livable space.. it is currently listed for sale at 3.9 million

These massive homes are cold and lonely places. But....The chandeliers are breathtaking.
Hello Denise how's the weather over there
Love when history is given about the home. RIP Kenny Rogers
@Ron Rossmore Just because he had money that he EARNED, doesn't make him a bad person. It doesn't make him a non-believer. The guy was on the road, performing for people who loved his music. He saw the inside of a tour bus for most of that. He deserved to have a home he could finally go to. If it were me, I would want a small cabin on a lake!! I just wouldn't want to be responsible for a property like that. It looks like a giant headache. But it was Kenny's call, not mine
@Ron Rossmore who are you to judge? You shouldn't just assume someone is in hell or not. I thought we wernt suppose to judge people. Isn't that God's job? Not urs?.
@Ron Rossmore just like I said...you are not suppose to judge. You say people are bad and that isn't what Jesus would want you to. You are bad.
@Ron Rossmore at least I don't do God's judging. Who am I to say someone is in hell for loving money. Not me..but obviously you can judge cuz ur so almighty and more powerful than me.
@Ron Rossmore so you are saying kenny rogers should of did everything for free and been poor? Did you ever see all the charity work the guy did? I guess helping others doesn't count in your God's eyes. My God is very happy when we help others.
The middle area in the foyer was meant to hold a grand piano and the curved ceiling is to enhance the sound from the music. Also used for picture taking, gatherings and concerts!
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel, better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will put a smile on your face..😊
Wooow
I was thinking it was a dancing space. Thank you for your explanation.
Hello Kimberly how's the weather over there
"Its always golden showers in these mansions, no pun intended!" 😂
it really pisses me off
Kenny Rogers was a gentleman and a great singer with a lot of class. He was one of my favorites.
It's Kenny Rogers have a children?
Yes he did. Couple boys iirc.
This is the best abandoned mansion I’ve seen on your channel. I sure hope someone purchase it and restore it. So sad to see the lady owners just trashed it.
Sounds like they weren't "ladies".

Check out the abandoned PALACE built by a Japanese billionaire. You'll be in absolute awe and left speechless. 😉
@@tantalize5795 Can you provide the link?
@@mariemyers6747 It's here on RUclips under abandoned Japanese mansion hosted by an Asian American guy named Steve Ronin. Other tubers do one as well. Actually I watched it again last night and realised it was "only" to house all the billionaire's artefacts etc and he was accused of tax invasion. Funny it wasn't as spectacular as I originally remembered. Lol. I hope you enjoy watching it. 😊
So beautiful architecture! Thank you for showing us the whole mansion and its details! Astonishing ♥
You're videos are detailed and you cover every nook and cranny of these places . I also love how your videos are not 20 minutes long. I like the lengthy videos. Thank you!!!
$8.5 Million for that place isn't bad, I could live in it as is, although anyone who could afford to buy it would probably redo everything, it really is very dated. That being said, it is so nice to see that this home hasn't been vandalized.
Crazy to see this place the way it is now. Used to drive by here all the time when I was younger because my Atlanta grandparents live In the neighborhood. As a child I always thought the home was beautiful so sad to see it become abandoned and mistreated like this.
Really u actually stayed there..wat went wrong y this palace seems to b so haunted..

Thank you so much, the house is absolutely beautiful I really enjoyed watching.
This was a 3 part house with lots of escape routes. The Grand staircase is beautiful, while the private one was very elegant. I can see this home having lots of potential.. I actually love it.

Hello Roxanne how's the weather over there
Ok
Just looked into the doctor’s background and wow. Pretty nuts how they are now practicing in the UAE like nothing happened - wonder if they’re keeping up with their settlement payback agreement… curious whether or not the house loan has defaulted, or if they’re still carrying that.
I have 24/7 anxiety over minor unpaid bills or fixing up my 1200 sq ft rental bc it’s been empty for six months, some people amass debts in the millions and leave mansions deserted and don’t have a care in the world… so nuts!
What was the Dr's name??
I totally get what u mean.
I would not be surprised whatsoever if code violations exceed the mortgage balance (if this goes back to 2018).
Who was this Dr?
@@panicmosem5969 someone should let them know they left the lights on..😅😅😅......At 3.9 not a bad price for 5 acres and a massive house...🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉...rip Kenny...bet he loved living there...wonder if he designed it.....
These rooms must of had lots furniture to fi theplace beautiful place thanks for sharing 🎉
I just discovered your channel last week & I love your voice! It’s so calm & soothing.
Same here
Agree plus he gets back story which we rarely get😊
Rooms in basement was probably for seasonal decor? It's where I'd store it.
That "storage" room with all the cabinets and counters but no sink is called a "butlers pantry." Its a room that typically connects the kitchen to the dining room and is traditionally used to store everything for the dining room. China, crystal, silver, servingware, linens etc and often used to store wine, coffee makers and tea service. It also serves as a space to prep dishes to be served, garnishes etc and reduces foot traffic in the kitchen. They are essential in large homes that often host dinners and parties.
Cool. Thanks for the info.
Hello Krystal how's the weather over there
Everything I see in this video, I think- "Kenny Rogers touched that, walked there, slept there, ....". I was fortunate enough to see him three times in concert, and got to meet him in Branson. Legit- one of the kindest, most gracious men ever. 💕🥰😇
I think early in his career, he was a singer for a Christian church, gospel singing that kind of thing. If I’m not mistaken
I touched Kenny Rogers. You don't wanna know where.
It is a shame that this beauty is slowly going to waste. The kitchen has top-notch appliances. A chefs dream! Thank you for sharing. ❤
The Garmon Home has attracted a lot of media stories.Thank you for this .
It’s so dark and spooky, I would never live in something like that. Like a dungeon.😳
They didn't go deep enough. We missed the whips, chains, and long objects.
Money talks, seems like they didn't spare no expense on this mansion, it's by far one of the most beautiful ones I've seen. They're usually all trashed & delipadated.
Yeah it's really ugly also dark.
Yeah, it gives off a dark and eerie feeling. Who knows what had been happening inside.
Bulldoze that gaudy shitbox.
I just wanted to say thank you for providing the home's background & talking to us about what you're finding as you explore the property. Those are two things other similar channels do not provide, which drives me crazy. Great effort.
Where would we be ... how could we live ... without being "updated" on who's multi-million mansion is put on the market and cry bitter tears over the elites who had to leave either the country or the earth because they tried to live beyond their means. How sad! May the mansion be "restored to its former glory"! Why not a video on the thousands of homeless who live in their cars or in a tent under a bridge? Its all about crying tears for the super-rich who's eyes were much larger than their bankroll when they signed the purchase contract.
Is it for sale?
Beautiful wood and floors! Seeing a home like that abandoned is such a shame.
I love the way you show the details in this home. I do have a suggestion though. Learn the correct names for the different rooms and things. Awesome job, I enjoyed you!
Hello how's the weather over there
The saddest part is that the ones that like to show off their wealth are the ones who usually doing the shady business. That house is still amazing regardless of who owned it. Shame that it’s just sitting vacant but glad that we get to see it before the vandals get to it. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us.
Obiden and Pelosi should let 600 Mexican border breachers move in. Give them all Food Stamps and $25 k .

Kenney Rodgers married a young girl, what become of her. They were still married when he passed !!!
@@millielockhart4142 I'm not sure if Kenny was a true Christian 🤔 😕 😳...... only God knows ...
@@andrewbmwm sick of antisemitism go away
I've been in houses in Naples, Florida. My husband use to lay stone, marble, brick, fireplaces. Huge homes. But I told my husband they were so big that you couldn't feel cozy in them. But they were pretty to look at.
Yes. I didn’t have a mansion - but we did build a nice home with faulted ceilings. It took me a long time to feel comfortable in the master bathroom. The high ceiling made me feel really exposed, lol. 🥴
Autocorrect gone wild - VAULTED😁
@@davisholman8149 Don't blame the ceilings, lol!
Thank you so much for all the music you played Kenny
Love it! Every time I watch a video, I wonder how much they’d sell it to me for. Obsessed with luxury real estate. (Historic properties and homes that tell awesome stories)
My goodness, how much room does one person need. No quiet cozy spots to relax. Truly a show piece. Thanks for showing this house.
Most people buy places like this for two reasons:
1. To entertain guest. When you have money you are expected to network with others for business.
2. When you are famous you are expected to live a certain lifestyle. The fans would be disappointed if he had a two bedroom ranch style home. Celebrities has to maintain an image
@@jc1979af not being either, I guess I'll just live in my 1000 Sq foot, closet. Lol
Hello Marie how's the weather over there
I would love to see the way Kenny decorated this home. It's still a beautiful home for someone with alot of money. It's dated. But could be made beautiful again. I just hope it doesn't get vandalized,
Wanda made the master bath split into for a his and hers...that big mirror in living room Kenny designed..it was a move in ready house when they sold it..was beautiful
That was Wanda's closet..lol
With so many different tastes, styles and retro revivals, calling any property dated now is not really accurate criticism.
I remember a Barbara Walters interview and the couches and chairs were white. The carved white table with the multicolored marble top in the video gives you a flavor of the decor in the main living areas.
I really hope that cheap looking lattice work in the kitchen wasn't a Rogers decorating idea. It ruined the entire kitchen plus the counters really didn't go with the rest of the color scheme either. As for that bed...ummm...hope that was added later too...just tacky.
Amazing to show this home! Wolf is a very expensive brand 👌🏼
Of all the abandoned mansions, this was my favorite. I hope someone buys it and keeps it as it is
One of the first things I noticed, was the dead goldfish in the fountain..🤬 so apparently they left all the fish to die.. it just makes me sick to think that these people just didn’t appreciate what they had. I just found you and just started watching some of your abandon homes and it just crushes my soul… most of us would love to live in something like that!
Usually they have so much they loose their way. At least donate it to a cause…. Don’t understand it at all.. they are unhappy in their own wealth. Humans never content
@@mfreeborny8591like I said a minute ago when I made a comment I don't understand why they didn't just sell the house and mate and have the couple of million dollars profit that they would have had after paying the government I mean it's not profit but it's better than the the house just sitting there and evidently it's in tax lien or something because I don't understand how the government hasn't already collected their money on this house. I don't know how somebody could have kept the house that was family and had not had to not pay the government what they owed.
take a wild guess what they were? NIGERIANS, haha. Love to say that.
If you would love to live in a place like that, then put the work in. Kenny and the Nigerians did something to experience their dreams. Whatcha got goin? Build it and live it.
I noticed the goldfish, too. Frickin' idiots!
Great story and a look in this house. There are so many beautiful architectural buildings abandoned and forgotten ! It’s sad, crazy and frustrating!
Hello how's the weather over there
The scrolled iron stairway railing is superb
This is a very well put together video! You are very respectful and seem like a Hella nice guy ! Thanks for this and RIP Kenny Rogers you gave us a lot of awesome music ! ❤
Amazing thanks for sharing! I think all the rooms on the basement floor, maybe those were the staffs offices KR had a lot of employees back in the day. May he rest in peace.
It would be mind blowing to meet the people who actually did work on building this beautiful mansion. Nice work.
Just your couple white guys with a few Mexicans like every other job site
Mind blowing to meet some construction workers???
Mindblowing to meet crappy design and cheap made materials and zero craftmanship? You have to be kidding.
I actually know Kenny's nephew Daniel Roger's AkA judge D! I used to work for his step fathers landscaping business, I know Daniel's lil sister Christina now she's all grown up just like my daughter is all grown up ! Damn I'm old!
WOW THIS HOUSE IS SO BEAUTIFUL!!
This is nicest house I've seen you explore. Awesome
It's incredible to leave a house like this abandoned and the most amazing thing is that there is still have electricity in the house.
Even more weird is that it doesn't have squatters homesteading in it.

Amazingly beautiful❤
That’s so impressive! Can only imagine the guests that Kenny might have entertained in that home. Thanks for sharing!
Right? I was thinking to myself as he led the tour that "Wow, Kenny walked here... I wonder which of his buddies also walked there..." It's certainly interesting.
@@twistoffate4791probably at least Lionel.
@@jeffouellette9946 Definitely!
@@twistoffate4791 I absolutely love that video of Lady with Lionel.
none... Kenny never lived there... it was his for only 2 years 12/2003 - 5/2006... as an investment property.. long enough to remodel it and get it sold for a 4.5 million dollar profit.. kenny flipped mansions as a hobby.. kenny "lived" in 20 and 50 million dollar estates.. google "LIONSGATE" in LA. if you want to see how he lived.. this is a shed compared to his other homes
This house is insanely huge. I could never imagine living in something this big. Honestly give me acreage instead and a log cabin any day of the week!
That's how life is, that's just material stuff .
That is how I feel. I would rather have a lot of beautiful Land and just a house like house.
I saw Kenny and his band in Edmonton Alberta, he was playing at Nait Collage , no stage ,I was seating at a table about 20 feet from them. I talked a bit to some of the band members and shook Kennys hand, nice guy. This was in the 70s
Did you see a safe as most mansions I have been in have built in safes. Awesome video 🤟😎
Would have love to see what it looked like when Kenny still owned it. Many changes were made to it by the second owners. Thank you for the walk through
theres pictures of it google i did it was beautiful untill Nigerians added their touch to it
I agree this is not what it look like when kenny was there.
If you look you can find... Kenny Rodgers was a show off so this Mansion is video taped many times. I think the last time he showed off this mansion was on MTV Cribs
I thought if it doesnt have a closet, its not a bedroom?
@@Dallen9yes I think it’s been shown on several shows on tv. Cribs was one of them.
You can blatantly see the difference in the portions of the home that were Kenny's style versus the other families style. So cool!
Kenny never lived here... it was a flip house
I was thinking the same thing!!! Would have loved to see it in all of his style!!!
Definitely not a Kenny looking style 🤢
That bed doesn’t look like a Kenny bed
I bet that chest at the foot of.the master bed has a hydraulic lift for the TV to come up out of.
I'll have to admit I was a little skeptical at first of this guy no offense. But after watching his walk thru he is 150% respectful to the house and giving you a detailed walk thru. And I'll agree with the one post. I enjoy watching these houses like this it's very interesting. So keep up the good work guys
Hello Charlie how's the weather over there
Estou viciado em assistir seus vídeos! São excelentes! Parabéns! Verdadeiro estouro da boiada!
Kenny Rogers was one of the biggest stars on earth in the 1980s.
I suspect that it was only used to rent out for parties so there never were any personal things in that house. What a beautiful house.Such a shame for it to be going to waste.

I've been to that house many times, I worked for a company that did lots of work there for Kenny and the last owners. It makes me sick to see it that way, knowing what it did look like. I can't speak to money being thrown around but it was pretty obvious money was not an issue.
@@SophieSoSo Those rooms were usually for the live in help.
There would still be doors for privacy for live in help
do you happen to know the address for business purposes
Didn't look like this when kenny lived there it's too I don't know I don't like it now.
How could the power still be on?
first and foremost, RIP Kenny Rogers. Second, this was BY FAR my favorite video production of yours to date Bankz. You are growing as a creator and I loved how you led into the backstory first and kind narrated the story as you went along. I also see you are getting much better at identifying different parts of the home and materials, designs, etc. included. Keep working on that. it really adds to your content, as always the camera work is superb and that is the strongpoint of your channel and always has been. Nicely done job Sir and great video!
Thank you so much! It’s been a lot of trial and error but I’m finally getting to the style I enjoy! And I love learning about what type of architecture and everything that is used for these places!
@@BigBankz continue being a student of your craft and eventually it will come naturally. Thank you for your commentary and history of the places you explore.
Couldn’t agree more, my cousin and I got a signed tambourine by him from a concert we snuck into, 9 years ago I still remember every detail to this day
I stumbled onto his grave sight, it is absolutely beautiful!
@@BigBankz What city/state is this?
Thank you for the backstory 👍
Very much appreciate your time and effort to complete the mansion, very grateful for your effort.. rest in peace 🙏
I cant help but wonder what it looked like when Kenny lived in the house, and what was changed when it was sold....
If I remember right…(tv interview) he had a lot of white ornate furniture and kind of modern looking white couches. Which would work in most of the house. That one large side table that was white with a multicolored marble top is how he had the house decorated. That piece is original. The bed in the Master just doesn’t work at all and I think was brought in by the second Owner. Unless he had a sentimental attachment to it.
@@janebeatty9472 Kenny never lived there... it was his for only 2 years 12/2003 - 5/2006... as an investment property.. long enough to remodel it and get it sold for a 4.5 million dollar profit.. kenny flipped mansions as a hobby.. kenny "lived" in 20 and 50 million dollar estates.. google "LIONSGATE" in LA. if you want to see how he lived.. this is a shed compared to his homes
Wow! That is wild. I liked the outside better than the fixtures inside. It was a bit gaudy for my taste. Homes like these are super expensive to maintain, so unless you're wealthy and not just rich, keeping this up is hard. Hopefully someone buys it and refurbishes it to live in and care for.
I absolutely agree with you on that but for some reason I can still see myself living in that home. It needs lots of TLC and money
I agree with the gaudy look of the interior. The outside was magnificent. The kitchen was my favourite.
The wood in that house is incredible!❤
The view over the top of the ornate wood panelled staircase that goes to the basement is like a looking at a journey to the loo in a British Wetherspoons pub! Takes about 3 business days to get there and back!
It's such a beautiful mansion! And Kenny Rogers is one of the few singers that I really admire. Such a shame that his former mansion was abandoned. I just hope somebody will buy it and restore it to it's former glory.
Some did I’m pretty sure ❤❤❤
It's just damn materials. Having alot of BS isn't worth it no matter how much money one has....
@@cnwil4594 bruh he is legendary
@@lukeboy7287 And, your point....?
@@cnwil4594 I just gave you it
We have a new favorite. What a gorgeous house. Incredible. So stunning. I hope it gets bought and lived in again. I shudder to think if vandals found this beautiful house. Fantastic explore. What a beauty.
In that neighborhood police would be called quickly if someone sketchy came about
You explore some really awesome locations. This is my favorite of your explorations so far, I've just recently found your channel. Thanks for showing these, what a beautiful house and tragic way for it to be going. As could be said for many of the abandoned places around the world.
The Ball room they used as a sitting room is Really cool.
Its sad that such beautiful homes lie abandoned especially when so many don't even have a home to live in such a waste
The listing from when Kenny Rogers sold it is still online with pictures throughout available. The people who purchased it from Rogers did a lot of renovations. It looks like a different house. Great video!
I would love to know where you found that original listing. I was a huge fan!!
I figured they changed a lot of it, Kenny didn't strike me as a big crystal chandeliers kind of guy. Would love to find the listing when it was Kenny's decor, bet it was amazing and much more inviting. ♡
THANK YOU FOR THE AMAZING VIDEOS THAT YOU DO SO THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO SEE HOW THE RICH PEOPLE LIVED.
Insane tour but not all of us are cut out for this lifestyle Rip Kenny
This is an amazing video, one of your best. Thanks for the detailed video and backstory. Keep up the great work
I for one is and always will be a Kenny Rogers fan I can't wait to watch
Thanks for another great tour BigBankz ....we love your videos here in Amsterdam also !
Awesome job.one professional ,respectful crew.
