Disgusting that greed and stubbornness have reduced this grand old lady into a crumbling decaying skeleton. They would rather see it rot than compromise.
Its sad when the kids cant come to an agreement. Beautiful places like these always pay the ultimate price and they end up with less. This man was gifted to have the knowledge and skills to have created such a beautiful home. Very nice explore. Stay safe xx
I always appreciate your deep respect for the homes and those who lived there. You are so young and so full of respect and gentleness for the histories . It makes watching these a sheer pleasure.
"Gentleness for the histories". Please, please tell me how he finds the histories by merely walking through the house. Shit, he even knows if the children just abandoned the place for the "city"). I have yet to see him source ANYTHING.
@@jab2780 I would imagine he speaks to the locals about the former occupants. In France, in areas like this, especially with huge properties, everybody knows everything about everyone who lives there. Heck, I lived in MARYLAND, and any one of my neighbors could tell you everything about everyone, including their children. Not to mention, the local courts and magistrates have easily accessible information about everything, there.
@@redadamearth I think he tries to be unseen. And likely can't speak the local language. I think he's the worst for inventing stories and his sanctimonious attitude.
@@jab2780 ...... Inventing the story may be the only thing he can do especially if he cannot speak the local language. The background history may not be easy to find. Sometimes even the hall of records has no information on a property. If you could do better then do so...... You dont have to be so critical. He does the best he can with what info he can manage to gather.
@@lindatimmons3675 There's no need to invent anything or think he's doing something for the owners or anything above trespassing and likely stealing. If I was doing this, I would engage the local government and see what they are doing about. If they don't want to. Fine. But don't pretend you're welcomed or special.
Just an amazing place! Just can imagine how beautiful it was in its prime!! Such a shame the children are tied up in lawsuits and can't just come to an agreement and enjoy the place instead of letting it rot. I feel that in situations such as this, the judge should just have everything sold and divided.
What a beautiful place Leslie. It is not only a shame the house is starting to really fall apart, but there are so many pieces of magnificent furniture. You can tell the owners were not French because most French manors and castles have religious articles in each room. Fantastic find.
@@BrosOfDecay truth....love of money is the root of evil. Connections, good health, grattitude and love matters over the material. We cannot take it with us.. I am glad he enjoyed it while he could, even if it caused a rift eventually. The logic of peoples choices and depth of greed now adays is beyond questionable or logic. 🤯 But then I am sure I live in a reality with a mindset that is very different to the norm. 😄🌻✌☮💜☯️🌼
@@deb0523ful yes, his legacy and vision could be shared and past down to his family and great memories shared and made. I guess many lack that sort of vision, when they are blinded by greed and ill intent. Which is probably why they are at a stale mate. I imagine it would take some money to bring it back, maintain and keep it running. And we live in very different times.... When I get my will sorted I am leaving everything to my cats. And who ever takes them on and looks after them will get any money I have. 😄🐱☮💜☯️🌻✌
@@heartofanempress Cats give endless love . It probably would take a lot of money but it would be a wonderful project indeed. People now days just do not appreciate what it took to live the old ways and really see and give the love to things that dreams are made from. Shame
Please don't go to these places alone. It's always best to travel in a group in case something happens the other can get help. It's too bad this place has deteriorated so much. I hope the family comes to an understanding so they don't lose out on their heritage. I'm no expert but I believe some of the furniture is very old and maybe valuable. They really need to save it from being destroyed.
Hey Lesley! Good evening! This episode is going to be amazing, because mansions always hold a lot of mysteries and I'm looking forward to hearing the history of the people who lived in this mansion. Thanks for bringing us fantastic episodes. Your work is wonderful.I love this channel!!!!!
I could tell it was once very lovely, the rooms that were finished before water damage. So, if they would have stayed they would have made it lovelier. What a shame. You are one of my favorite host of touring abandoned homes. Because you are attractive and respectful of your surroundings. Also respect in your voice and kind eyes. Thank you again for a wonderful tour. Oh and I like it when your hosting alone. Not to much noise and the focus is better on things.
What a shame to see this extraordinary mansion has Been left to waste away. These countries have so many wasting away beautiful properties. Dosent the government care about these historical homes.
I do hope that the children see this video and actually make efforts to get along together and get the place put back in order and make the place livable again!!!😊🙏
Watching from South Africa and it's absolutely fantastic....so many memories left behind in these time capsules. It is sad to see so many beautiful antiques just left in time and being destroyed. The way you talk is very therapeutic, and going through these abandoned places with you takes me back in time and I do see it in my mind like it was in it's real glory. Love your videos, and thank you for sharing it with us.❤
It's not the structures or the land that makes abandoned places intriguingly addicting to explore. It's the curiosity of how others lived in the past. I love your videos. Kudos from Patty Z in Phx.
Leslie ein ganz grosses Kompliment an dich. Deine Filme sind faszinierend. Ich habe über 50 Jahre in Zürich gelebt. Verstehe Marcel und Petra, die alles hinter sich gelassen haben. Vor 9 Jahren bin ich in den Schwarzwald wohnen gegangen. Bitte mach weiter so tolle Filme. Liebe Grüsse Brigit 🍀
Absolutely love that you show us the details of wall paper and tiles, your appreciation truly shows and reminds us of bygone eras! And even if your speculations aren't always known to be correct,they tell lovely stories. Just love you and your videos! God bless
The present owners of all these abandoned houses should donate all books to libraries. Some of them must be valuable. I always wonder what the edition year might be.
Do you ever get curious after visiting a place to research and see if a rescue has happened or may be in the process? We are all simply stewards of whatever properties we may “own,” and your adding to the unique and personal narratives of these dwellings is a very positive contribution to OUR world. Thanks so much! And let us know when a family member steps up and keeps your Grandfather Jamal’s place in the family!
What a beautiful mansion. It really is too bad that the kids cannot agree. Maybe they will before it gets worse. Thanks again Leslie for the wonderful narrative that you always do. I can't wait for the next adventure.
Once in a while, a manor that you explore makes me feel kind of melancholy. This house was special. I wish the kids could have compromised 9 years ago. I love looking into the attic it's high sloping roof. I had such a sense of peace while you were going from room to room. You did a fantastic job on this exploration. Thank you for sharing. Sincerely, Carly
Great job, Lesley. I like the solo style too! Less confusion and chatter, though sometimes other explorers add to it. I believe you are the most detailed of all of them...and you create scenarios that make it all come back to life! I hope you will continue with your meditation channel too!
THANK YOU! Such a beautiful place. I like the beauty of the Decay but I feel the sadness of the loss. You did a great job! I am concerned for your safety when you're in a place like this alone. I'm sure you tell people where you're going so that if you don't show up they know where to look. Much love! I would be a happy woman to live here and have the money to fix this up!
@@BrosOfDecay I'm very confident that you do the right thing. You're smarter than most people. I am a mother even though my boys have passed. My name is obviously not Gomez. It's just the name I used to have a little bit of privacy. It's good to see that you've kept this up and that it is turned into something so wonderful and beautiful. I remember your very beginnings. We've kind of got to watch you grow up it's beautiful. Just be safe and keep showing us these wonderful places! Thank you.💜🤗🌱
@@gomezaddams6470 I love your pseudonym -- and I'm sure the other "Gomez Addams" would heartily second your comment on "the beauty of decay". Couldn't help thinking that he and Morticia Addams would feel right at home in this place, and would be fans of the Bros of Decay series.
I must give you props… for your work. I can’t do it. I’m scared of the dark never mind exploring in unique properties like these. Thank you for bringing this to us.
Am so surpprised how everything on thee table outside stayed upright nd alright with winds that blow etc. So interesting to see how they lived. The toilets must have fallen apart alot? lol Absolutely beautful to see this mansion ..thank you Lesley!
It reminds me of Matthew 6:19-20"Lay not up for yourselves treasure upon earth where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasure in heaven, where neither moth and rust doth corrupt, where thieves do not break through nor steal."
Thank you for taking time to show and share these beautiful places before they are totally forgotten and fall away for good.God's great blessings and protection as you travel and share, we all love you also.
Leslie, I simply love the way you talk and the respect you have for all these things left behind from someone who probably is no longer with us. you are a very kind and nice young man!
Isn't there a homesteading law in some states where if you moving to a house like that and live in there for 7 years that it is yours legally. I wonder why someone hasn't done that
Wow, dear Lesley, what a breathtakingly impressive manoir again! - It's every time so amazing to see another of these historical châteaus and manoirs. France seems to be an absolutely inexhaustible source for finding more and phantastic buildings, - all of course due to their long history with kingdom and nobility. - What fascinates me in reference to your manoir, you are going to present this evening, is of course also this connection of the last owner, he had to Zurich. - I only sincerely hope to be able to watch your video this evening, because I am right now still not completely fit, and my recovery apparently takes some more time. It really sucks a lot! Wishing you all the best, many hugs, peace and kindest regards.
Hey Willy! I'm sick as hell right now too! I'm pretty excited to see this, if I have to be stuck in bed feeling awful I might as well be watching something nice. I hope you are able to make a full recovery, my friend.😘😘
@@ruthbancroft7016 , Oh dear, I am very sorry to hear that! I at least hope, you had now some fun with our lovely explorer. I was finally caught approximately a week ago by a corona infection. Where - I have no idea! It's so damn unfair, because I am double vaccinated and boostered. At least the effects were not too hard, because it felt like a classical flu with fever, caugh, rhume and sore throat, and I was and still am very tired. Also I was a lot in bed, but I am now slowly recovering. - So I really wish you also a full recovery of your illness. Stay safe and take care! - Kindest blessings, peace and kindest regards.
@@careyh38 , Hey Carey H., Thank you so very much! That's so touching. I am already much better than last week. Wishing you also all the best, peace and kindest regards.
Before I watch the exploration, I would like to say that when you explore alone, just like Maureno you're not distracted and you see more. It seems like much more detail is given and more time is spent investigating the place that you are exploring and I get a whole lot more out of it! Thank you all very much!❤
Hello Leslie, thanks for another wonderful explore! I would be so grateful if I inherited any one of these abandoned places. And for those who do inherit these beautiful places and they do nothing but let them rot really breaks my heart. I would give anything to just be able to restore and help those who do not have a place to live. Here in the United States, we have a problem with homelessness and some places it’s worse than others. So just to think how awesome it would be for everyone to have a roof over their head and not worry. I just can’t understand why the government doesn’t step in to help fix some of these places and help the homeless!! Someday everyone will have a home and not have to worry about taxes or anything else. Just be happy and live forever!! Before you know it everyone will feel safe no matter where they are.!! GOD doesn’t break his promises!! Have a wonderful explore on your next adventure. Your friend, Bonnie P.S. my mother was born in Germany, and met my father when he was a soldier in the army. And they got married in Germany then my mother came to the USA. Never went back. I have to older sisters. My dad,mom and older sister passed away. It’s just my sister and I who are still alive. So thanks for taking me with you on your journeys.!!!😉
Hey, in the USA, the government is scared about being sued instead of keeping a roof, hot meal,and a daily shower over someone's head. Praying for you and your sister.
Leslie, Thankyou for this special pot, this house felt very comfortable happy and calm. Enjoyed every moment and hope one day someone will bring this beautiful home back to life , Lyn in Australiaxxx
Beautiful place!!! At 19:56, you called it a cabinet (in the dining room/living room) we call it a buffet. Reason is because the food could be set on there in lieu of the table. It would leave mire room on the table like if you had a couple extra guests.
The home is amazing but the furnishings are unbelievable. Some of the styles I've never seen before. Much thought appears to have been put into choosing the pieces. Thank you for being so respectful of the property.
Loved watching this. Seeing all the incredible rooms. When hearing the peaceful birds chirping outside while you were filming, I could close my eyes and picture the room in it's amazing beauty back in the day. Sitting there enjoying the wonderful sun shining and soft breeze through the windows while drinking a cup of tea. What a thrill. Thank you!
I know what you mean about not wanting to feel confined by others as you look around. Even the best of friends can unintentionally rush you or influence what you film. You can concentrate on what interests you alone and take your time. That said, oh do be so careful!! I'm so afraid of you falling through some floor and no one knowing you are in need of help. I know you know and take the utmost precautions, but I had to say it LOL. Thanks for another great explore and for our kiss at the end
Such a shame how greed divides A family. They should at least donate the home and have it used to help people. Looks like they just dropped everything and left but it's only the beginning.
Very nice showing of this old house ! It surprises me how huge many of these mansions are ! I would get lost in them ! Thanks fir showing this house 🏡 to us !! Or mansion it would take you about ten minutes to go through mine ! Lol
This is the first of you videos I have watched in several months. I have just not been on the computer much. But it was worth my time to stop and watch this. I thoroughly enjoyed it. You have such a gentle way about you and your videos are very peaceful and easy to watch. It is such a shame when families are in disagreement when the parents die. All of this decay could have been prevented had they just put their differences aside and done what was right. Thank you for finding, videoing and sharing this beautiful presentation and giving us the opportunity to see what we would never otherwise be able to see. God bless you.
Tienes el poder de transmitir tus sensaciones y me es imposible no seguirte durante todo el recorrido. Deseo lo mejor para ti en tus próximas aventuras en solitario, pero ten mucho cuidado : Lo digo porque algunas veces te arriesgas demasiado. Saludos afectuosos desde Gran Canaria
I love this guy! I could listen to him all day long. He is so passionate with each and every Exploration. He really lovez what he does. And he was careful to pay Marcel and Petra the respect they deserve. Thank you for a great show!!💜💜
Lesley i too share your enthusiasm for the old and decayed ,rusted,thats amazing his last beer on the table complete with dust,his gardening machines being worked on left still intact.Thanks for great content😎
Love watching your videos, the places you go and we get to join in and see so many different places. Seems you have a genuine care for these places and protecting them more than the families. I’d be afraid to go alone, squatters, wild animals or weak timber’s. I can easily see you owning one of these places one day and restoring it beautifully! God bless!
Well done! I especially liked the beautiful second floor woman's bedroom. (34:10) How touching that whoever made the bed, and carefully arranged the pillows for the last time, also laid a rose on the endtable - perhaps in her memory. Judging from the beautiful wallpaper, she obviously loved roses.
It’s a shame the family have to fight in court , meanwhile this beautiful home goes to waste and may never be restored , as always , Another fantastic video.
Your videos lift me up. You take me places I could never see…like I am there with you. Your voice is soothing and calms my soul. You are a good man. Please always tell someone where you are going and let them know you are safe after your discovering. Floors can collapse in the blink of an eye so be very careful. Thank you for your sharing of these lovely homes. I watch you from Michigan, USA
You were not alone Leslie. I was right there with you. At least it felt that way. What a fabulous house! I love thé blue entrance door! I loved all the arched frames around doorways. I loved the velvet fabric beds matching velvet covered chairs. Must have been so grand and amazing in its prime. One of the best parts of your tours is you! Your enthusiasm and delight at every fascinating new discovery! It’s so contagious! You have perfect English, but with a lilting accent that is very easy on the ears. I love listening to the words you chose in English. Where a native speaker, (American) might say.. “the floor was heaved up” or “buckled up” you say it is “deformed”. The use is totally correct, just not often used in this context, but totally beautiful and explanatory. I would also have loved to have coffee on that balcony overlooking the gardens. So grand. So very grand! Thanks for taking me along..
Congratulations on your first solo exploration, darling Lesley! Of course you were amazing as always. Never have I ever met anyone who gets as excited about old houses as me…especially the attics, basements and secret doors! We are the same! Thank you for making it possible for me to see so many right from home! Much love, luck and many blessings to you, my dear, from North Carolina, USA! 😘🇺🇸🫶
Good evening Lesley! Another great find! Such a beautiful home with lots of gorgeous furnitures. So sad to see everything starting to decay along with all their beautiful memories..I wish the kids could had thought about the memories instead of their pockets..you did great Lesley! See you on your next adventure....😊
Family been and taken what they could of value like house robbers such a beautiful place thank you for showing us all the family home of such a lovely couple sad moments you can feel it's love and happiness in it's day, Bless them and rest in peace.
Hi Lesley, first of all Gorgeous Manor!! 🤩Now seeing the RV 🚐...there is 2 beds...the kitchen table goes down & the cushions are laid 4 in a row for someone to put a sheet on & pillows & blanket, then the bed at the top where again you dress with sheet, pillows & blanket! We use to own a Camping Trailer same idea! When you talked about parents & 3 siblings, the children are adults & move out to a bigger city..but parents probably had a Document that showed the 3 siblings to divide all the stuff inside the Manor! But the 3 Siblings were fighting against each other for the stuff in the Manor...which is GREED!! Now as years go by from 2013, everything is decaying & soon Nothing will be left for Any of the 3 siblings! What should be saved is the beds, furniture, pictures, books, lamps!! Ok, Lesley...I love the Arched Doorways!! As for bedrooms, the pink one is my favorite, which I believe was the parents room-downstairs, then upstairs the yellow the bed was either turned or a different wall of that room-1 sibling, & upstairs red room was pretty also, this would be 2 sibling-pretty peacock wallpaper & knit or crocheting picture, then upstairs the small bed must have been the youngest sibling number 3 sibling! The balcony that was very large had 2 satellite`s a new version for cable tv! Now you said, why do people Not put up wallpaper & just paint...the reason is wallpaper is a lot of work on putting it up, & if it gets worn or dirty, it is hard work taking it off & then again hard work putting it up...especially if the glue dries quickly on backside of wallpaper!! Now you call Lanterns...is really Lamps next to beds, lanterns are usually outside or to be carried with a person to have light where you walk...if its too dark to see...no lights or electricity went out!! Take care & stay safe, Love from Central Illinois!!😊❤
I don’t mind waiting for you to have a companion to go with you. It isn’t a good idea to go to these places alone. I am sure there would be many trustworthy people very excited to help you. Thank you for taking us to these magical places & sharing history. Blessings to you and for your protection. 🙂🙏🏻
It may have been that some wanted to preserve it, but couldn't afford to buy out those who needed their inheritance for their children's education or to save their own livelihood. Anybody who watches restoration videos knows how unpredictable and how financially draining it can be. It's sad that they couldn't find a solution that worked for everyone.
What a beautiful exploration today! I found the construction of the attic ceiling to be fascinating. I'm pretty sure all the cigarette boxes were just extra from packing and moving out. Keep up the great work!🇨🇦😁👍💕
Well it looks like sometimes windows are left open by others and he leaves them open anyway. I’d be shutting and locking everything up! Help slow down deterioration and moisture build up. Kind of seems like a no brain’er!
Hermoso recorrido x esta mansión y nos cuenta muchas historias, las cosas que se encuentran deberían ser donada a quien las pueda aprovechar, cuidado cuando estés solo,avisa a la familia x donde andas. Saludos de la ciudad de México.
Love the video. Please be safe. You should have a partner. Do you remember in one video, when your camera person stepped on a tarp and almost went through a hole in the floor?
Boa noite, sou do Brasil, amo assistir seus vídeos, um mais lindo qdad ue o outro. Este mesmo, achei de muito bom gosto, mansão antiga, abandonada, cheia de coisas lindas. Parabéns meninos. Continuem assim, sempre colocando a legenda a disposição. Abraços e até o próximo vídeo.
Hey Lesley This was a great episode, however I don’t like you exploring by yourself. In case of emergency you would be SOL! You didn’t have a mask on with all that mold in there. OK the mother in me and the grandmother and me has spoke her peace. It was lovely to see the bedrooms were beautiful. Love the beds and the wallpaper. The staircase was lovely. The kids better hurry up and get their act together before the place falls into total disrepair and unsavable. Thank you so much. Love from California💜😎🤟🏻🇺🇸
Oh Leslie, I adore you! Isn’t it hard to do alone?? I’m sure you will be successful in doing this alone. Just be carful. I worry about you and I’m still hooked on you. I enjoy Europe much more then the U S A. That is where I am from. Much love to you!!😊
❤Amazing tour. As an avid book reader I have to say I got super excited seeing the books. I appreciate how much respect you have for the property and possessions. Thank you for sharing.

Same here, hey Celia how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?

Liebe Grüsse Brigit 🍀
Absolutely love that you show us the details of wall paper and tiles, your appreciation truly shows and reminds us of bygone eras! And even if your speculations aren't always known to be correct,they tell lovely stories. Just love you and your videos! God bless
I am enthralled with the way you allow the space to envelop you… The way you so eloquently whisper in
Accented reverence…❤
Hello, happy new year to you 🎉
The present owners of all these abandoned houses should donate all books to libraries. Some of them must be valuable. I always wonder what the edition year might be.
Do you ever get curious after visiting a place to research and see if a rescue has happened or may be in the process? We are all simply stewards of whatever properties we may “own,” and your adding to the unique and personal narratives of these dwellings is a very positive contribution to OUR world. Thanks so much! And let us know when a family member steps up and keeps your Grandfather Jamal’s place in the family!
What a beautiful mansion. It really is too bad that the kids cannot agree. Maybe they will before it gets worse. Thanks again Leslie for the wonderful narrative that you always do. I can't wait for the next adventure.
Once in a while, a manor that you explore makes me feel kind of melancholy. This house was special. I wish the kids could have compromised 9 years ago. I love looking into the attic it's high sloping roof. I had such a sense of peace while you were going from room to room. You did a fantastic job on this exploration. Thank you for sharing. Sincerely, Carly
That's how I felt when I watched this video
Great job, Lesley. I like the solo style too! Less confusion and chatter, though sometimes other explorers add to it. I believe you are the most detailed of all of them...and you create scenarios that make it all come back to life! I hope you will continue with your meditation channel too!
It's sad to see such beauty go to waste and not be repurposed or loved thank you for sharing this at least we get to enjoy its beauty through you
THANK YOU! Such a beautiful place. I like the beauty of the Decay but I feel the sadness of the loss. You did a great job! I am concerned for your safety when you're in a place like this alone. I'm sure you tell people where you're going so that if you don't show up they know where to look. Much love! I would be a happy woman to live here and have the money to fix this up!
Hey Gomez, thank you for the concerns on me, I always let someone know where I am and how they can find me 😊
@@BrosOfDecay I'm very confident that you do the right thing. You're smarter than most people. I am a mother even though my boys have passed. My name is obviously not Gomez. It's just the name I used to have a little bit of privacy. It's good to see that you've kept this up and that it is turned into something so wonderful and beautiful. I remember your very beginnings. We've kind of got to watch you grow up it's beautiful. Just be safe and keep showing us these wonderful places!
Thank you.💜🤗🌱
@@gomezaddams6470 I love your pseudonym -- and I'm sure the other "Gomez Addams" would heartily second your comment on "the beauty of decay". Couldn't help thinking that he and Morticia Addams would feel right at home in this place, and would be fans of the Bros of Decay series.
@@SMF314 xo 🖤🥀

I must give you props… for your work. I can’t do it. I’m scared of the dark never mind exploring in unique properties like these. Thank you for bringing this to us.
Am so surpprised how everything on thee table outside stayed upright nd alright with winds that blow etc.
So interesting to see how they lived.
The toilets must have fallen apart alot? lol
Absolutely beautful to see this mansion ..thank you Lesley!
It reminds me of Matthew 6:19-20"Lay not up for yourselves treasure upon earth where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasure in heaven, where neither moth and rust doth corrupt, where thieves do not break through nor steal."
Thank you for taking time to show and share these beautiful places before they are totally forgotten and fall away for good.God's great blessings and protection as you travel and share, we all love you also.
It’s hard to believe the house could deteriorate into this state in just 10 years!
We love you Leslie. You are an inspiration. 🙂
Leslie, I simply love the way you talk and the respect you have for all these things left behind from someone who probably is no longer with us. you are a very kind and nice young man!
Isn't there a homesteading law in some states where if you moving to a house like that and live in there for 7 years that it is yours legally. I wonder why someone hasn't done that
Wow, dear Lesley, what a breathtakingly impressive manoir again! - It's every time so amazing to see another of these historical
châteaus and manoirs. France seems to be an absolutely inexhaustible source for finding more and phantastic buildings, - all
of course due to their long history with kingdom and nobility. - What fascinates me in reference to your manoir, you are going to present
this evening, is of course also this connection of the last owner, he had to Zurich. - I only sincerely hope to be able to watch your
video this evening, because I am right now still not completely fit, and my recovery apparently takes some more time. It really sucks a lot!
Wishing you all the best, many hugs, peace and kindest regards.
Hey Willy! I'm sick as hell right now too! I'm pretty excited to see this, if I have to be stuck in bed feeling awful I might as well be watching something nice. I hope you are able to make a full recovery, my friend.😘😘
@@ruthbancroft7016 , Oh dear, I am very sorry to hear that! I at least hope, you had now some fun with our lovely explorer.
I was finally caught approximately a week ago by a corona infection. Where - I have no idea! It's so damn unfair,
because I am double vaccinated and boostered. At least the effects were not too hard, because it felt like a classical
flu with fever, caugh, rhume and sore throat, and I was and still am very tired. Also I was a lot in bed, but I am now
slowly recovering. - So I really wish you also a full recovery of your illness.
Stay safe and take care! - Kindest blessings, peace and kindest regards.
@Willy Egger sending you prayers for quick recovery . Greetings from Alabama , US!
@@careyh38 , Hey Carey H., Thank you so very much! That's so touching. I am already much better than last week. Wishing you also all the best, peace and kindest regards.
Before I watch the exploration, I would like to say that when you explore alone, just like Maureno you're not distracted and you see more. It seems like much more detail is given and more time is spent investigating the place that you are exploring and I get a whole lot more out of it! Thank you all very much!❤
Hello Leslie, thanks for another wonderful explore! I would be so grateful if I inherited any one of these abandoned places. And for those who do inherit these beautiful places and they do nothing but let them rot really breaks my heart. I would give anything to just be able to restore and help those who do not have a place to live. Here in the United States, we have a problem with homelessness and some places it’s worse than others. So just to think how awesome it would be for everyone to have a roof over their head and not worry. I just can’t understand why the government doesn’t step in to help fix some of these places and help the homeless!! Someday everyone will have a home and not have to worry about taxes or anything else. Just be happy and live forever!! Before you know it everyone will feel safe no matter where they are.!! GOD doesn’t break his promises!! Have a wonderful explore on your next adventure.
Your friend,
Bonnie
P.S.
my mother was born in Germany, and met my father when he was a soldier in the army. And they got married in Germany then my mother came to the USA. Never went back. I have to older sisters. My dad,mom and older sister passed away. It’s just my sister and I who are still alive. So thanks for taking me with you on your journeys.!!!😉
Hey, in the USA, the government is scared about being sued instead of keeping a roof, hot meal,and a daily shower over someone's head. Praying for you and your sister.
Hi Lesley missed you on the day ,omg it’s beautiful,such ashame it’s all left thank you for taking us around with you much lv Ann uk 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️❤️
So nice watching this he did a great Job, hi Ann how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
What a beautiful mansion. You can tell that he put a lot of work into it. Stay safe 👌 👍 🙏 ❤ 💓 💙
Leslie, Thankyou for this special pot, this house felt very comfortable happy and calm. Enjoyed every moment and hope one day someone will bring this beautiful home back to life , Lyn in Australiaxxx
Beautiful place!!! At 19:56, you called it a cabinet (in the dining room/living room) we call it a buffet. Reason is because the food could be set on there in lieu of the table. It would leave mire room on the table like if you had a couple extra guests.
The home is amazing but the furnishings are unbelievable. Some of the styles I've never seen before. Much thought appears to have been put into choosing the pieces. Thank you for being so respectful of the property.
Stay safe. Let someone know where you are going . I enjoy looking around abandoned houses with you.
Loved watching this. Seeing all the incredible rooms. When hearing the peaceful birds chirping outside while you were filming, I could close my eyes and picture the room in it's amazing beauty back in the day. Sitting there enjoying the wonderful sun shining and soft breeze through the windows while drinking a cup of tea. What a thrill. Thank you!
I know what you mean about not wanting to feel confined by others as you look around. Even the best of friends can unintentionally rush you or influence what you film. You can concentrate on what interests you alone and take your time. That said, oh do be so careful!! I'm so afraid of you falling through some floor and no one knowing you are in need of help. I know you know and take the utmost precautions, but I had to say it LOL. Thanks for another great explore and for our kiss at the end
Lesley, I always love hearing the appreciation you have in your voice for these old places. It’s such a shame it is rotting away.
Such a shame how greed divides A family. They should at least donate the home and have it used to help people. Looks like they just dropped everything and left but it's only the beginning.
Love this place. Thank you for showing it to us. I would love to have this place as my own. Such history ❤
Very nice showing of this old house ! It surprises me how huge many of these mansions are ! I would get lost in them ! Thanks fir showing this house 🏡 to us !! Or mansion it would take you about ten minutes to go through mine ! Lol
Same here very nice watching this wonderful old mansion videos, hi Gwen how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
This is the first of you videos I have watched in several months. I have just not been on the computer much. But it was worth my time to stop and watch this. I thoroughly enjoyed it. You have such a gentle way about you and your videos are very peaceful and easy to watch. It is such a shame when families are in disagreement when the parents die. All of this decay could have been prevented had they just put their differences aside and done what was right. Thank you for finding, videoing and sharing this beautiful presentation and giving us the opportunity to see what we would never otherwise be able to see. God bless you.
Tienes el poder de transmitir tus sensaciones y me es imposible no seguirte durante todo el recorrido. Deseo lo mejor para ti en tus próximas aventuras en solitario, pero ten mucho cuidado : Lo digo porque algunas veces te arriesgas demasiado. Saludos afectuosos desde Gran Canaria
si pienso lo mismo ,saludos desde uruguay ,canelones
Yes just simple wear gloves and face masks, just mould cause bad illnesses so think thats what you saying mean by take care.
I love this guy! I could listen to him all day long. He is so passionate with each and every Exploration. He really lovez what he does. And he was careful to pay Marcel and Petra the respect they deserve. Thank you for a great show!!💜💜
Lesley i too share your enthusiasm for the old and decayed ,rusted,thats amazing his last beer on the table complete with dust,his gardening machines being worked on left still intact.Thanks for great content😎
Love watching your videos, the places you go and we get to join in and see so many different places. Seems you have a genuine care for these places and protecting them more than the families. I’d be afraid to go alone, squatters, wild animals or weak timber’s. I can easily see you owning one of these places one day and restoring it beautifully! God bless!
Well done! I especially liked the beautiful second floor woman's bedroom. (34:10) How touching that whoever made the bed, and carefully arranged the pillows for the last time, also laid a rose on the endtable - perhaps in her memory. Judging from the beautiful wallpaper, she obviously loved roses.
Hi time to relax missed your videos how sad children leave their parents such a beautiful place very very sad😢😧
It’s a shame the family have to fight in court , meanwhile this beautiful home goes to waste and may never be restored , as always , Another fantastic video.
You do awesome videos but be careful doing them on your own because anything can happen and who would know
Your videos lift me up. You take me places I could never see…like I am there with you. Your voice is soothing and calms my soul. You are a good man. Please always tell someone where you are going and let them know you are safe after your discovering. Floors can collapse in the blink of an eye so be very careful. Thank you for your sharing of these lovely homes. I watch you from Michigan, USA
Dziękuję , że są napisy w języku polskim . Piekna wyprawa i świetna narracja potrafi Pan opowiadać - dzięki .
You were not alone Leslie. I was right there with you. At least it felt that way. What a fabulous house! I love thé blue entrance door! I loved all the arched frames around doorways. I loved the velvet fabric beds matching velvet covered chairs. Must have been so grand and amazing in its prime. One of the best parts of your tours is you! Your enthusiasm and delight at every fascinating new discovery! It’s so contagious! You have perfect English, but with a lilting accent that is very easy on the ears. I love listening to the words you chose in English. Where a native speaker, (American) might say.. “the floor was heaved up” or “buckled up” you say it is “deformed”. The use is totally correct, just not often used in this context, but totally beautiful and explanatory. I would also have loved to have coffee on that balcony overlooking the gardens. So grand. So very grand! Thanks for taking me along..
Just rotting away. So sad.
Congratulations on your first solo exploration, darling Lesley! Of course you were amazing as always. Never have I ever met anyone who gets as excited about old houses as me…especially the attics, basements and secret doors! We are the same! Thank you for making it possible for me to see so many right from home! Much love, luck and many blessings to you, my dear, from North Carolina, USA!
😘🇺🇸🫶
Good evening Lesley! Another great find! Such a beautiful home with lots of gorgeous furnitures. So sad to see everything starting to decay along with all their beautiful memories..I wish the kids could had thought about the memories instead of their pockets..you did great Lesley! See you on your next adventure....😊
Family been and taken what they could of value like house robbers such a beautiful place thank you for showing us all the family home of such a lovely couple sad moments you can feel it's love and happiness in it's day, Bless them and rest in peace.
Maybe the larger square pillow on the colorful bedroom bed was where a little dog would sleep.
Hi Lesley, first of all Gorgeous Manor!! 🤩Now seeing the RV 🚐...there is 2 beds...the kitchen table goes down & the cushions are laid 4 in a row for someone to put a sheet on & pillows & blanket, then the bed at the top where again you dress with sheet, pillows & blanket! We use to own a Camping Trailer same idea! When you talked about parents & 3 siblings, the children are adults & move out to a bigger city..but parents probably had a Document that showed the 3 siblings to divide all the stuff inside the Manor! But the 3 Siblings were fighting against each other for the stuff in the Manor...which is GREED!! Now as years go by from 2013, everything is decaying & soon Nothing will be left for Any of the 3 siblings! What should be saved is the beds, furniture, pictures, books, lamps!! Ok, Lesley...I love the Arched Doorways!! As for bedrooms, the pink one is my favorite, which I believe was the parents room-downstairs, then upstairs the yellow the bed was either turned or a different wall of that room-1 sibling, & upstairs red room was pretty also, this would be 2 sibling-pretty peacock wallpaper & knit or crocheting picture, then upstairs the small bed must have been the youngest sibling number 3 sibling! The balcony that was very large had 2 satellite`s a new version for cable tv! Now you said, why do people Not put up wallpaper & just paint...the reason is wallpaper is a lot of work on putting it up, & if it gets worn or dirty, it is hard work taking it off & then again hard work putting it up...especially if the glue dries quickly on backside of wallpaper!!
Now you call Lanterns...is really Lamps next to beds, lanterns are usually outside or to be carried with a person to have light where you walk...if its too dark to see...no lights or electricity went out!! Take care & stay safe, Love from Central Illinois!!😊❤
What a nice comment I find it interesting to watch like the 2 beds, hi barb how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
@@williampat4438 I don't know you & I'm on here to watch Lesley & Bros of Decay video's!! So talk to someone else
@@barbkeil-burton6894 we can be friends Barb?
Hi Lesley, can we stop people from giving me a comment that is not good in my book!! I'm here to watch Your Video's!!
Thank you for sharing these amazing places with us Leslie. 🇺🇸
I don’t mind waiting for you to have a companion to go with you.
It isn’t a good idea to go to these places alone. I am sure there would be many trustworthy people very excited to help you.
Thank you for taking us to these magical places & sharing history.
Blessings to you and for your protection. 🙂🙏🏻
Leslie this was an amazing place to explore, thanks for sharing this beautiful video with us.😊
Hello from Marseille, beautiful house, thank you for sharing.
… 🍃🌸🍃…
Be careful when you explore
What a stunning place love all your videos
Shame on the kids!! Greed!! You did a wonderful job on this!
It may have been that some wanted to preserve it, but couldn't afford to buy out those who needed their inheritance for their children's education or to save their own livelihood. Anybody who watches restoration videos knows how unpredictable and how financially draining it can be. It's sad that they couldn't find a solution that worked for everyone.
Financial self-interest where the survival of this house is of secondary importance, who knows?!!!
What a beautiful exploration today! I found the construction of the attic ceiling to be fascinating. I'm pretty sure all the cigarette boxes were just extra from packing and moving out. Keep up the great work!🇨🇦😁👍💕
Please close all the windows and doors whenever you leave places like this. It will keep out the critter and rain. Thanks for the tour.
I just wanted to write that (as usual).😊
I really hope he does.😬 It's the least he
can do.🙋♀️🥀🍀
im also to wanted to tell that .please close the windows and doors already open.they will survive them for a long time😢
Leslie, beautiful solo adventure! Keep up the good work! Do what you love, love what you do! I can't wait for your next adventure!💗
Same here he did a very nice Job enjoyed watching it. Hi Laila how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
The large bathtub is similar to one's used for people with mobility issues. They can step in through the side or be lowered in with a lift.
Thank you for another amazing video!!!
Same here,happy new year’s to you 🎉
omg, i am so happy now, i missed alot of ur new videos, i can only watch this...so busy this couple months.
👋 hello Lesley ❤️ Looking forward to seeing this beautiful castle 🏰
Hi Carey missed the vidio just watched it saw you their hope your well much lv Ann uk ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
@@annsmith4739 I'm doing well. Thank you. Are you doing well? Wasn't incredible documentary! :)
Same here so nice watching this here. Hi Carey how are you doing?
Well it looks like sometimes windows are left open by others and he leaves them open anyway. I’d be shutting and locking everything up! Help slow down deterioration and moisture build up. Kind of seems like a no brain’er!
~*Loveeeed the manor... thanks for showing us it...was sooo gorgeou8s... love your enthusiasm as well!!!*~
Love your exploration ….. feel 2 people make it safer …….. another great find ……. Thank You …… stay safe on your journeys
I love the way you tell the story of the beauty of the home and people who enjoyed life there. I can feel the warmth
I enjoyed this exploration very much Lesley. Thank you for sharing it.

While the kids are fighting over the estate it's falling apart they won't have anything g to fight about then
Hermoso recorrido x esta mansión y nos cuenta muchas historias, las cosas que se encuentran deberían ser donada a quien las pueda aprovechar, cuidado cuando estés solo,avisa a la familia x donde andas. Saludos de la ciudad de México.
Sei una bella persona.Il tuo rispetto per le cose,fa di te una persona speciale 🤗
The mirror in that bedroom next to the front entrance appears to be Murano glass, from Venice. If it is, it was very expensive.
Oh wow…what a fabulous home.
Hello, happy New Years to you 🎉
Love the video. Please be safe. You should have a partner. Do you remember in one video, when your camera person stepped on a tarp and almost went through a hole in the floor?
I have the biggest dorkiest smile on my face. This image gave Me feelings.
Boa noite, sou do Brasil, amo assistir seus vídeos, um mais lindo qdad ue o outro. Este mesmo, achei de muito bom gosto, mansão antiga, abandonada, cheia de coisas lindas. Parabéns meninos. Continuem assim, sempre colocando a legenda a disposição. Abraços e até o próximo vídeo.
I love Lesley’s accent!
Hey Lesley This was a great episode, however I don’t like you exploring by yourself. In case of emergency you would be SOL! You didn’t have a mask on with all that mold in there. OK the mother in me and the grandmother and me has spoke her peace. It was lovely to see the bedrooms were beautiful. Love the beds and the wallpaper. The staircase was lovely. The kids better hurry up and get their act together before the place falls into total disrepair and unsavable. Thank you so much. Love from California💜😎🤟🏻🇺🇸
Какое потрясающее место! Уютное, светлое! Очень красивые обои. Мебель нужно срочно спасать 😍. Благодарю за видео!
Oh Leslie, I adore you! Isn’t it hard to do alone?? I’m sure you will be successful in doing this alone. Just be carful. I worry about you and I’m still hooked on you. I enjoy Europe much more then the U S A. That is where I am from. Much love to you!!😊
I always wanted a pink and black bedroom and that first room off the reception area would definitely have been a good start
Hello, happy new year to you 🎉

❤Amazing tour. As an avid book reader I have to say I got super excited seeing the books. I appreciate how much respect you have for the property and possessions. Thank you for sharing.
Hello Leslie, very interesting tour. That book you flipped through by Max Bauer Edelsteinkunde is from 1896
Keep up the good work
