      You are right, such a shame to see this home demolished. I watch your videos but never expected to see a home of this caliber, just gone! Thanks for the videos, you do a great job!

    Nice presentation. I wish someone would suggest to these Developers, instead of tearing down such beautiful homes. Keep them and make them a Club House for the new additions. Most of these properties are on acres and acres of land. They could be a Club House and Possibly Bed & Breakfast/AirB&B to add to the new situation. And NOT add to the Land Fills adding to our environmental problems. If anyone out there knows Developers suggest this. Look at all that stuff that has to go to the land fill and this is happening all over. And Explorers Don't forget your LIGHT.

    Hello Ethan, this house certainly was grand!! It's a shame that it's gone. I can tell you really liked this home & I'm sure that it's difficult for you to see it is now a pile of rubble. Some day though you will build it back!!! Thanks for sharing this interesting adventure!!! 👍👍🙂

    Last fall I went to an estate sale that was in a 8000 sq ft home! You needed a GPS to get around! A doctor built it in the early 90's, and was sold some years ago. The new owner ran it into the ground! The taxes are 20,000 and was going on the market for 2.2 million, and a fixer upper! Three furnaces, climate controlled wine cellar, movie theater in the basement and it just went on and on and on. All of us nosey shoppers said it was fun to go through it, but no one wanted to move in! So, keep on keeping on Ethan, and wishing you all the best for 2024! Cheers from Wisconsin

    @Mamasita4life32 Год назад +8

    Thanks for a really great explore Ethan! The thing i like the most about demolition sites is seeing just how many different materials really go into building a home, no matter how big or small. It is sad to see such a beautiful home that really wasn’t that old be torn down, and i can only imagine how the families who lived in this home must feel to see a place where they once lived and made memories be demolished. Again, thanks for another great video, and Happy New Year!

    Such sadness in the U.S. (if this is in the U.S.). That's all people do anymore, is tear down the beautiful and fine houses to build something modern and new. And people who still live in these beauties, have gotten the entire inside of the home re-done with modern day new stuff. It seems I am the only one that loves these gorgeous homes and architecture. I haven't met anyone else who does.

    I so agree with you. It's depressing to see the huge pile of rubble where that magnificent house stood. Here's hoping you will build your lookalike dream home soon! I've also been wondering...did you happen to take a brick or something with you as a memento? I think I might've, just for the hell of it.
    Awesome job on this video, Ethan. Keep up the good work!

    Ethan you’re such a sentimental, young man. 😊. And I don’t mean it in a bad way it’s so sweet of you to try to bring back something from the past that’s been torn down like this but you have to remember you’re never going to really get it to where it was because of the materials at the time that it was built in the first place you can build a good quality home grant you, but at the same time it still won’t be exactly the same. 😢. I think you know that and whenever you do build your own home, remember it’s all about the details like you brought out and the little details as well they matter. no shortcuts but I wish you the best in achieving your goal and getting your own home and having it built the way you want it to be built but I have been really enjoying your videos and thank you for the intro and researching this home out. I appreciate that you take care and be safe out there.❤🤠

  • @tigre7739
    @tigre7739 Год назад +3

    It was an amazing and beautiful home! I loved the architectural style, and elements. Forty years is a relatively small amount of time in the life of a home especially one like this! It is a truly sad and depressing thing to see such an incredible home reduced to a pile of rubble🙁. I know it is extra hard to see when it was one that you felt so deeply about. I believe though, that your true passion will lead you to have the home of your dreams one day. ✌️

    I’m so sorry that you had to witness something you’ve loved for so long meet it’s premature demise. I would have been crying my eyes out but I’m often told I’m too sentimental. It was a gorgeous house though. So much to love about it from the entry foyer onward. Beautiful staircase, the trims the moldings the wall coverings the large living rooms and dining rooms. Those circular rooms really nice. The curved fireplaces were uniquely beautiful. I wonder how they can create something circular from square brick. The glass block bar was pretty neat. It’s a shame you couldn’t have found a couple of those glass blocks in the pile of rubble to save to use as cornerstones for whatever you choose to build out of it in your future dream house. I have no doubt that you will someday have everything you want in that dream house and that you will achieve every success that you dream of. So many things to love in that house but one of my favorites was the tiling in the foyer area. Looked like sunflowers. The house was formal but the tiles were whimsical. Thank you Ethan for sharing this amazing house! You’re always so good at what you do! Take care of yourself, be well and stay safe. And be happy!

    Beautiful home. Thank you for showing us around. A real pity it was torn down. Wonderful amenities. I bet it was a fun place to grow up in. It was surely loved over the years. But lets tear everything down and see how many houses we can build on 10 acres. Money, money, money. Blessings to you. Stay warm and healthy. 🤗👍🎉

  • @janeceeastwood8035
    @janeceeastwood8035 Год назад +2

    The flooring and chandelier in the first room are gorgeous! The furniture to fill it would probably cost as much as the house. You’re spooking me, Ethan, with the noise. In the nanny’s bathroom, one would hit one’s head on that slanted ceiling standing up from the toilet. Not nice. The sweeping staircase and chandelier above are beautiful. The one jarring note for me was the curved brick fireplace; that would have to go if it were me.
    The death of such a beautiful house is painful to me. Great video. Thank you for sharing your most important house. God Speed, Ethan, with your dream goal.

    @mavahuth5044 Год назад +3

    I know it's not my house and maybe the style at the time. But that house was too dark. With all the green wallpaper etc. I agree with you on all those funny angles. The one little area that you said there is no way you would go in. I was thinking, the only thing you could use that for is a bed. Which I wouldn't like.

    I find the patterned tiles on the floor a bit much but décor is quite nice, not the very busy wall paper that made the corridor even smaller and dark, lovely use of solid wood and mouldings very exquisite some nice chandelier very big house. You standing with that pile behind you was heart breaking. when you will try to recreate this house there wont be that much wood to work with. Thanks for the video

I really like the way you were so respectful of the place and treated it as though it could’ve been your own childhood home. Thank you for what you do Ethan. I will continue to follow you.

    Hi Ethan . I share your love of this grand home . She was beautiful. Wow 40 years , sad day seeing her go. Thanks for sharing her with us. Also my little town is the same , overpopulated, traffic jam , a greedy real estate agent has had all these plans in place for 20 years at least . He’s finally got his wish , ugly apartments/units , concrete jungle. I like old school houses with character! Such a shame , but what can we do about it ? Money talks! Watching from Australia 🇦🇺.
