I Explored a Mob Boss’s Unbelievable ABANDONED Dream Mansion Built in 1979 And Here Is What I Found

- this massive 5000 square-foot ranch style home was custom built by an Italian crime family in the late 1970s. It remained in the family until a death in 2020 and the house was put up for sale. The house was then purchased by a redevelopment company who will demolish this house and rebuild a 9500 square-foot mansion on the 4 acre property.since this recording, the house has since been fenced off and locked up.
The inside of this house remains exactly how it did the day they first moved in back in 1979. The brown ceramic tile, the dark brown wood cabinets in the kitchen, the interior, brick walls, and brick fireplaces, even the original stove and refrigerator in the basement with the owners last name on them shows how custom this place really was. I bet there was some unbelievable parties in that basement and in the ballroom! 
i’m sure it is only a matter of time until this house is reduced to rubble the day the excavator rolls up and demolishes it. The new home that will replace this has no chance of even coming close to replicating the class and incredible architecture that this home shows. this was one of my favourite explores of 2023. 
That's a quality built home. The upstairs has absolutely no sign of any water leaks anywhere. And look at how clean this house is.
This is one of my favorite abandoned mansions. I would move in and leave it as is. It’s unique and beautiful. Makes me sick that it’s going to be destroyed.
It’s honestly so messed up what’s going to happen to it. It’s so beautiful and so cool at the same time.
I was just thinking that as well. I wouldn’t change a thing and move in as is. It’s beautiful.
I agree! I’d move in tomorrow!
I agree!
All I can say is Wow!! What a beautiful house! That is so cool, a custom design refrigerator. Thank you for showing this one.
BEAUTIFUL!!! What a great find!! Love those older homes with such character!!!
I would love to play the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack in that 70s disco basement.
Yes indeed while roller skating 🛼
There is no reason to destroy such beauty, it makes me sick to even think about!!! Let another family make memories in this house!!!!!
I was the passenger in an SUV yesterday that hit the end of a guardrail head on at 60mph. I was in the trauma center all day/night until I was upgraded. My dog who was in the back hit the windshield and is in the emergency vet. I needed to watch some of these videos to get the accident off of my mind. I am in so much pain. Please, everyone with a dog, get harnesses and seatbelts for them. My dog is 100 lbs and he still was thrown from the back of our SUV. Great video! ❤
I pray that you and your pup will recover quickly 💞
Sending prayers and healing thoughts for you, your precious dog, and any others injured.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🐶🐶🐶
Thank you for the prayers and kind messages. I will be putting up a video after the holidays about the accident and how we all are. My sweet dog and my friend who was driving are here with me at home. He had a diabetic drop in sugar and it caused him to pass out while driving. Scary how it takes less than a second for a car to end up hitting something. There was no time to react.
So sorry. Praying for you and your dog. ♥️🙏
Bless you sweetheart I'm praying for you and definitely your baby doggy for sure! May God heal and bless you each. I pray God gives you strength and massive patience. Give strength to your family too!
BTW: something that might make you smile for a moment. When our friend stepped in front of the toilet it lifted and we were all like, okay now that's cool. Y'all know as well as I do that all dude was thinking was, "Yeah, I'm peeing in that toilet before I leave this place!!" Lol!!
That house is gorgeous!!! Soo sad it is being demolished. That breaks my heart so bad. It's just a breathtaking house
That is gorgeous ! The doors and windows are all about style!! I love oak also, especially the dark stained. Outstanding style in cabinets , fireplace, I can’t stand how people can destroy such quality and attention to detail! 😢 The place has a great vibe!
What a timeless home. Still looks in style. Change out some of the chandeliers but everything else still looks great. One of my top five homes.
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING 😍
My heart hurt knowing it's fate 😕
This house was loved- I'm sure wonderful memories were made here♥︎
I feel like you had to have missed a secret room in that house. Amazing place. Sad it will be torn down.
The kitchen has definitely been updated
Beautiful home like everyone else has said I’m so sad they demolished it!
That down stairs is definitely a ballroom or party room. Awesome video. Love the old homes. Thanks!!!!! 19:52
the old 2nd kitchen is normal with the Italians. So fun seeing you sooo excited!
I am Totally Captivated by this mansion!!💖 I have never seen such impeccable example of such exquisite space and architecture from that time period!! Oh my Gosh what an absolute dream home!!🤩 I am woozy with delight just from seeing it! It's too incomprehensible to fathom that it will be demolished!😩
For a mansion built in 1979, it’s pretty freaking sweet!! It’s a shame it’s getting demolished, looks like it’s in great shape! 👍👍
Thank you Ethan. This explore physically affected me. My stomach went in knots to see how beautiful it is and to know what will happen to it. This house is one of a kind and someone's dream come to life. 😢
if you thought this was nice, wait until you see the place i have to post in a couple weeks that was just demolished last week…
You are correct. This house is incredible. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to outbid and keep this treasure of a home alive. I would keep most everything as is, though a bit outdated by some opinions it is still so cool. That fireplace off the kitchen gorgeous. I imagine that area was the heart of the home, a great place to gather family and friends. Love that sunroom! What a great private lot. Makes me angry and sad. Wish I had the means to beat some of these developers at their own game. I wish I were on a zoning board and able to deny permits that include needless and wasteful destruction. Is anything with character and craftsmanship ever saved? Thank you for sharing Ethan this beautiful treasure of a home. Stay safe be well and take care.
This was a beauty! Obviously meant to be reminiscent of a sprawling Mediterranean villa, in the glass next to the front doors and the angles used in the great room and master bedroom had splashes of American craftsman also in it. Im not sure I've ever seen anything like it in that type of hybrid feel. Funny that it had a full ballroom for entertaining, yet an unfinished area set up perfectly to be a game/billiard room. It seems that the owners entertained on a large scale. I would love to live in a home this interesting. It's a tragedy that it is to be demolished.
THAT WAS SO FUNNY - THE TOILET LID RAISING BY ITS SELF MADE EM JUMP , HES SO GOD DAMN COMICAL ,
This place is amazing. I love this mansion.
You have taken us on some incredible tours through some beautiful homes, but this one is by far, my very favorite! I LOVE the sunroom off the bedroom/dining rooms. My cat would lose his mind in there-it would be the best catio ever! I wish I could own this home. The only thing I didn't like about it was the fact that it was going to be demolished. I agree with everyone else-so sad it's being destroyed. Thanks for the amazing tour!
Oh Ethan I know I can’t, but I wish I could take you back to the 70’s! Today is the best time of my life, but I will never forget the 70’s. The craziest, most colorful, best music, concerts every weekend, , biggest party ever💃🏻🎸. All that place needed was a disco ball. And I hate disco, but I love 🪩. Rock on Ethan!❤️
Hi. The reason the Sun Room is so narrow, it wasn't really a Sun Room but a 70's way to Passively heat a house. Very very cool house. 😊
Amazing! Maybe the developers will see this house and decide not to demolish it and build around it which would be nice. Amazing video Ethan. These videos wouldn't be the same without you.
This abandoned mansion is breathtaking it's so surreal. The mahogany molding, just the outline of the home , the way they built this home with semitry and balance. It's a beautiful traditional classic home. I so love it.
still sooo beautiful !
Color is a ittle dark but someone out there would still love it
..not a lot of damage
No reason they need to destroy it
So much money down the toilet
...
Rich people are wack..always need bigger and better
Gov needs to put something in place that some shouldn't be ripped down if shape isnt to bad
It's sad to know this unique house is going to be demolished. This house is absolutely stunning. I share your views on how today's houses aren't unique at all. Awesome video 👍☺️
I dont know when this was filmed but if recent you sound a lot better ❤ Gorgeous house! We dont get this sort of thing in the UK demolished.. maybe why we have extremely old houses.. so sad! x
What a beautiful home. Whoever owned it should be very proud. I know when the day comes they tear it down I wouldn't want to be anywhere close to see it. It would break my heart to watch it go. I suppose there going to put up some more ugly condos or apartments.
That house is beyond beautiful ❤ it's really sad that it's going to be demolished 😢
This house is extraordinary! That ballroom alone is amazing...what a fantastic place for parties and holiday events. Bet a lot of happy times were enjoyed here!!!
Beautiful house
Beautiful thank you 4 sharing this with us
Ethan my mind is truly blown with his beautiful, beautiful home and when you said it was right up your alley, it’s right up mine as well. I cannot understand nor condone these contractors doing what they’re doing because this house is very unique with full of warm personality just a shame.😢
I am at a loss for words. Absolutely incredible!
This is probably my favorite "mansion" so far by you, I could move in today and love every inch of it!! Your so right about it being a total shame that this grand home will be knocked down just to put up some "junk" in its place.. Its sad.. But love your stuff..😇
It's so beautifully made ❤ it
This house so out of this world perfect. Everything is beautiful and perfect. Wish someone lived in it instead of destroying
This place is magnificent! Those developers have rocks in there heads to tear it down. I would LOVE to live in a home like that. Wonderfully taken care of and perfect design.
Thank u Ethan for sharing this amazing home
for a 44 year old home what a classic gem the basement was party central the bathrooms were nice size and the kitchen was grand but a beautiful home and I can not see why they want to demolish it thank you Ethan for showing us another beautiful home
This house 🏠 is by far the BEST house you have been through!! I LOVE it!!
Wow what a start for us beautiful
I have been watching your videos, for a couple of years now. And, have enjoyed your love and passion for what you do. The past videos of homes that could have been easily restored and lived in.......lets me know the fall in line with the rest of society, which is going on right now. In the entry of this home, that is a custom made table with a marble enlay to section off the room. And that clock is an antique. It looks as if someone was taking the time to update the bathrooms. This is a beautiful, beautiful home. Thanks
Ethan! Oh this place is immaculate. I would move in and live there just the way it is. You know this is heartbreaking to know they are demolishing it. Thanks for the video.
We can tell you love what you do by the sound of your voice. We also love what you do! Thank you, Kimberly from upstate NY🧡🏘🏰
House may have been built in 1979 but it has many new upgraded features I have seen in todays standards
Beautiful home it's a shame they're gonna tear it down😢
I am not usually a fan of 70s design, and this house changed my mind. Absolutely gorgeous. Love all the wood trim.
Yeah you did good Ethan. Italian families are big and we do love our get togethers. Some are shorter stature I'm 4'10"
This house is stunning! I totally leave it as is and live there!
Ethan
This is the best house 🏠 so far. Its hard to build a house that can actually be moved into even forty yrs later sure its a bit outdated but very beautiful and liveable still❤❤Sad to see another gorgeous home tore down and another 🍪 cutter generic house or apartments built.. Great Job & love that you Respect every place you visit..
Great Video Ethan! How disgusting that a perfectly liveable house like this is demolished because of good old fashioned greed!
Definitely from an era when quality builds were around!
Loved the hi tech toilets, never seen them before!
Keep up your great work,love your videos!
Thanks again Ethan for this tour. The front stain glass is beautiful. The whole house is beautiful. The tile is wonderful.
Loved this house. Brought back memories of the oak doors and trim, the ceramic floors... simply Besutiful. Thanks again, Ethan for this great explore.❤
The natural light in this one. Wow. It’s all so gorgeous
I love the way you are so respectful of these properties, Ethan. I am like you, if I turn a light on, I turn it off upon leaving the room. This house is lovely, and I wish it was not going to be torn down. In so many houses, where they have been abandoned and so much is left, I always wish that the family or someone would at least take the clothes, appliances, furniture, and give them to people in need who would be so glad to get them. These items could be of use instead of sitting there, rusting, decaying, and of no use to anyone.
😍 enjoyment is an understatement...
This was Special ❤
So beautiful, yes so amazingly beautiful.. wow, Thank you Ethan!
I could so move into this house! A few modifications, but all in all it is so comfortable and lovely. From the USA. Someone definitely had a wonderful plan for this home! Thank you for sharing this explore! Heartbreaking it’s going to be demolished! Appreciate your taking time to share this beautiful home.
Ethan that was incredible, A self contain party mansion i could see that top part middle section being some sort of a mini chapel/ church to host all the Italian weddings the top right section looked like it could be the place where they held huge banquet. Then the bottom section was like boom the reception dancing floor and indoor entertainment area for the bambinis. Another great find Ethan.
That house is a gem, so beautiful 😍. Too bad it will be demolished!
You're right Ethan, this home is incredible!!! 🏠
awesome kitchen,dude.
i cant wait to see what Ethan ihas for us today .i am sure its going to be amazing ❤
What a beautiful house Ethan...loved it...its heartbreaking 💔 that they're tearing these incredible houses down ...love the 70s ...ballroom was insane..same as the toilet seats ...fabulous Ethan stay safe well and happy 💋
What a beautiful mansion 😍. I love everything about it especially the hitech toilet 🚻. It's a shame that they will tear this place down 😢. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 ❤
Such a beautiful house and in very good condition..so sad it's getting torn down😢
Bathroom is so cool!
That's my dream home right there!!.❤ So sad they're going to demolish it 😢 Awesome video Ethan! Thanks for sharing 👍
I love how everything was kept original and in perfect condition.
wow, what an amazing place, loved how the toilet lid automatically went up, lol. sad its going to be demolished, but thanks for sharing. love your reactions, dont ever change
I’d move in it now and wouldn’t change a thing about it
Down stairs would have made a perfect roller skate rink. Just need the mirrored ball.
Oh my goodness! I could move right in there. What a shame it's about to be demolished. Absolutely stunning. I love the layout and how bright and open it is. The retro appliances are brilliant. I'd be just as excited as you to see it in person.
Wow,wow,wow❤
What a beautiful home with good bones. Sad it will be taken down and replaced with junk 😢
Agree this was far beyond the best find!!! Thanks for the tour...loved it
This house was fabulous!! And fun too!! Loved it!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
😢 HI ETHAN ! ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST. SUCH A GORGEOUS HOME & TO THINK I FOR ONE WOULD BE VERY HAPPY TO OWN THIS BEAUTIFUL HOME, MOVE IN READY TOO! ❤ YOUR VIDEOS . FROM PENNSYLVANIA 👍💯💥
I love this house Ethan and thank for the tour of the place 👍
Whoa mais quelle belle maison bravo a toi qui trouve toujours des beautés comme cela je te suis depuis longtemps c'est une des plus belles que tu nous as montré j'attends la suivante bye ❤️❤️😺👋
Ethan you are right we need to watch this one in siclence , it is off the chain.That self moving toilet cover is on fleek 😊.
I literally want to cry... this house is beautiful!! How sad I'll be destroyed.
What a nice house! Love the layout. Looks move-in ready to me! I’d love to live there 🙂
Hey Ethan, thanks for responding to all of my posts. Love your explores. My work is in hundreds of homes like this one. I grew up in an Italian family...fun, ya right. We are f'ing crazy People!
They had a ballroom this house is incredible what a waste why they won’t too let this go I really enjoy this one
It really doesn't like abandoned 😔they must have loved this house 🏠i love ❤this house 🏠beautiful who ever owned it im sure they loved it as well
I know late to the party but I always wish that they would at least reclaim before destroy. I'd love to buy that crownmoulding, maybe not the chandeliers in this one but some of theme have been beautiful. There are people that would take away fixtures for free and and probably resell them than rather go to waste. Countertops, appliances, decor, can all go to habitat for humanity for resale instead of just plowing it down
Just wow, absolutely incredible. The toilets are so cool. Most impressive was the party area in the basement, a wonderful place to party. Thank you for this dreamlike and breathtaking exploration, Ethan. Stay healthy and safe. 🙏❤️
Love this house best yet. It makes you want to cry that they would tear it down.
This house is beautiful, can't believe they would tear something like this down. Such waste.
Absolutely stunning! I would love to have this home. Good job finding this home. That basement is so spacious.could have had big family gatherings here.
I’m loving the brown tiles floors Ethan 😊
This house is absolutely gorgeous
Amazing!!!! So sad it will be destroyed. Awesome find Ethan, thank you!
I agree with you, that house 🏠 is exquisite!
Wow! This is gorgeous! And so clean ❤ very well taken care of. Definitely! It's also very well made not cheap stuff
What a beautiful well cared for custom home! Great find Ethan!
