Forgotten Abandoned Billionaires 18 MILLION DOLLAR Mansion

- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- Here we have a 16,000 SQ ft home that was started in 2012. but today, 8 years later, it sits unfinished and completely forgotten.
what happened here is the person it was being built for ran out of money and construction completely stopped. and now it just sits here.

I'm surprised (and happy to see) that no one vandalized this home.
Ginny because is in a rich neighborhood 🤣😂😂🤣😂
That's totally insane. Talk about throwing money out the window. They could have built a house half that size and had money left.
it's that huge because they have rich clientele and friends that come over for business and or pleasure
@@kBitre They could throw some nice parties there and everyone could spend the night
Connie, I agree with you. I am an Interior Designer, I see people over spending all the time.
It looks like a hospital not my style
Exactly. 10,000 Sq ft is way more than enough. I'd be happy in 3.
I would love to see a house like this fully furnished and functional..
With a huge happy family, I'd need a tour guide because I would get lost. They'd fund my skeleton years later.
I enjoy touring the mansions with you, Ethan, but, just as much, I enjoy your enthusiasm while you're walking through them -- thank you!
Except VACANT DOES NOT MEAN ABANDONED 🙄
Ethan, please start videos at the front door. I want to feel like I am doing the walk through. Thank you!
mood 🤣
Do you ever research these places to find out if they are for sale?
I think they should take those homes that the billionaires walk off and leave ,they should put the homeless people in those homes😪
@@bettyhamm1 why should they get a free home???? They wouldn't be able to take care of it, clean it, and clearly you do not understand the land appraisal impact that would have for thr surrounding area homes.
@@vickibaker8372 what the hell most homeless people would love and appreciate a roof over their heads! They are only dirty due to lack of being able to be any other way or Illness. That's a horrible way to think of the less fortunate !
The architectural symmetry in each room is so gorgeous I know it's not done yet but so interesting 🏡
Imagine being a kid in this house. One game of hide-and-seek would last a year! 🤣🤣🤣
Insane. Waste of money.
Yea
Lol you feel how I play hide and seek
😂🤣😅
Are these properties for sale?
I hope eventually someone will buy this and finish it! I’d love to see the architect’s drawings. What an incredible place!
Ethan if this video was 2 hours long I would've still watch the whole thing!! Do not apologize of being in awe of this gorgeous mansion. I bet all of us would have the exact same reaction lol I cannot imagine the devastation of the owner not being able to finish the dreamy house. Months, perhaps years of planning gone down the drain. So so sad!!!
Can you imagine the utility bill, water, filling it with furniture, curtains oh my gosh!
If somebody can buy this house, he or she will also have the means to finish it and decorate it with furniture curtains wall art etc. There are of course as many ways to do it as people in this world. Some would hire a professional decorator others would do it entirely themselves. Me? I would raid IKEA 😃 Easy, affordable and funny. And the food in the restaurant is usually very good.
As for the electricity water and other expenses I wouldn't bother. If I can buy this house, I can also pay the bills 😎😁
curtains and shades can run into big bucks for a regular house-- right?!
You know your an adult when. Lol so many toilets to clean and floors to wash. Lol
You'd have to have a household staff too. Gardener, housekeeping, cook...butler?LOL
Not to mention cleaning all of the bathrooms!!
The floors alone are breathtaking! That central staircase! Amazing! Total mystery as to why it’s not finished! The power & water are on, the interior looks new. Beautiful home!
This is my favorite home this far. I love this house. It's a shame that it's not finished. I couldn't imagine having that much money tied into a home I couldn't have finished and live in. This is amazing and I enjoyed the walk through. Its breath taking.
Whoever was building that must be crying every day. The workmanship in that house looks pretty darn good. That house looks SO close to being done. Just imagine running out of $$$ that close to being done.
Yes one of the best staircases ever no swimming pool?
European built
I guess he should have planned for a cheaper house. Sounds like a greedy idiot to me.
@@bevcamren1316 Yes...he showed it....it was an indoor pool.
There is still water and electric current. They maybe planning to continue the construction once they get some investors or loan.
So money can buy happiness! This place is so gorgeous and it isn’t even finished. I felt like I was in a palace. Nice!
Idk that the owners are very happy. Seeing as they spent 18mil and still can't live in their dream home. Living in excess, always catches up to u
A house that big you need alot of cameras and 2 large dogs
Living in this house, I could hide from the husband and kid's. Lol
Ok Karen
They'll probably never gonna find you lol
I know, with me.
Yep and I'll be your secret basement man toy.😎😋
Galadima Rashad 😭😂😅
I just kept thinking how fun it would be to roller skate on those floors. What an amazing house.
Seeing this house 🏠 brought me to sad realization. Some people are living while others merely exist..
Just cause your alive dont mean your living
Id bestuttering. Forget giddy
That isnt living...this is a pure example of extreme waste. This is a sad urbnexplore-too bad 👎
This house looks sad honestly. Yes its big but doesnt have that home vibe.
A truer statement was never spoken.
Who would want a house that big? The cleaning, maintenace and be terrified because someone could easily live there with you without you knowing.
you think a Billionaire worries about cleaning and maintenance? They would have live in staff, security, etc
When youre this rich you don't have to worry about any of that. You can hire your own private 24/7 security, plenty of rich people do that. And like the person above said, you can have live-in staff such as maids, cooks, lawn carer, etc. Real world problems aren't a problem to people who live like this.
@@elainemarten2147 if you see nothing wrong with this picture something is wrong with you. Duh they can and will pay staff to clean and do maintenance. the point is the house is excessive for no reason. They likely don't or didn't have 10-20 kids or other family to put in this house.
Would be a great hotel!!
A mafia home thats what that reminds me of lol
Wow! Could you imagine rolling up on this place and saying "we're home" ?
I love how you continue walking as you're giving a tour because that's how you can really tell how big these mansions are. When you stand in a room to look at statues, wood work, etc., you lose the feeling of how big it truly is. This house is so massive, UNREAL!!!! Truly stunning!!
It looks like someone is taking care of it. Lights and water on, no cobwebs or dust. Looks like a dumpster and construction machinery outside in flash of one window. The nailed off door is probably an elevator shaft.
I am having a panic attack watching this! I would get so lost in it, and so overwhelmed by the responsibility of caring for it. I guess if you can afford this type of house, you can afford a staff to care for it. Still having a panic attack!
My daughters friend is a realtor, she said she’s seen many multi million dollar homes built and finished them, but they can’t afford to furnish them. Many are empty.
Nhi.
NJ
In a country where so many ppl are struggling with homelessness, places like this sit empty. What a ridiculous irony.
The ridiculous thing is starting construction on a home like this , that you cannot afford to finish.
Dude, Freaktography did a vid of this place -made me really appreciate yours! You give us time to look at things, point out details and just do a really good job on your commentary. You go into the rooms, closets, drawers, check out doors, everything. He kept on saying, "This is gonna be fast." Just glanced into rooms, no rhyme or reason. So kudos to you, you may be young but you know what interests people in these places and you present it very well. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us, I truly wish I could be there myself!
Agree
The nailed off doors on each floor are probably to an elevator shaft.
some of them were to empty (timber framed) rooms, as you can see
Just imagine how much furniture you would need to fill that much house! Those nailed shut doors are probably an elevator shaft.
Troy Eppstein imagine the utility bills!$$$$$$$
And how could you clean it?
Can you imagine your Daughter
getting married, and coming down
that Staircase??? Wow
I think she would be confuse in what staircase to use. The left or the right. 🥴🥴
Holy cow, that master bathroom is bigger than my entire apartment! Don't know where this house is, but it sure reminds me of a house some people I know were building, but in the middle of it, he got caught cheating, and now, they're divorcing; her husband was a professional MLB player and now works for Fox Sports doing play-by-play for the Cardinals. I haven't heard yet what is happening with their house yet, but I imagine it will go on sale. Nice tour, Ethan!
I enjoy the enthusiasm that you have when discovering new things.
Me too ! I’m in super amazement !
Man this house is beautiful!! Could you imagine how much furniture it would take to fill this home! Geesh
Or Toilet Paper...lol!!!
Could you imagine cleaning it ..
I thought the same thing! Another hundred-thousand to furnish it! Insane!!!
@@TheCarson01 At a minimum, the owner of an 18 million dollar home would probably not think twice of spending 10k on one piece of furniture.
@@loriking3707 😂😂😂
Your videos are fantastic! The excitement you show and detail you offer are highly entertaining. I too love ‘60s to ‘80s homes but every once in a while you showcase a real outta have property that amazes us all! Thank you!
The outside of this house is gorgeous! What a shame it wasn’t finished!
Magnificent massive house. A whole tribe of families could live here and not disturb each other.
Imagine living in a house that size. Gosh. I’d never find my cats apart from the feeding time.
Funny that's the first thing that came to my mind too! Imagine having to look for your cats to take them to the vet!
I wouldn't want a house that's so big you don't know if someone is hiding out waiting to kill you.
Haha it funny you say that I just said that
Your cats would probably go feral in that house!
Funny. But generally cat people don't live in mansion like these. They're more for dog people.
I've been in a few similar houses and can't ever remember seeing a cat walking around any of them. Dogs, yes, but never a cat.
It's weird, but that seems to be how it is.
You’re doing a fantastic job showing these homes. You’re one of my favorites. If anyone wants to complain just ignore them. Your great at what you do. Thank you so very much ❤
I would need a GPS to get around in that house
Have you ever been to the Gaylord in Nashville it’s huge on the third day I knew where everything was😂
Yeah I could get lost easily
And a small golf cart or store cart he he he man it would take a lot more money to finish it how about a billionaire take control
Ikr? I'm old school, so I'd do a trail of bread crumbs to find my way back. But, it might take awhile and yeah, I'd probably need a little snack along the way. Dang!
Oh me too, add a few cocktails and you’re lost for sure
Ethan, that staircase is absolutely breathtaking! I love those kind of staircases. It would make a grand entrance for a bride and groom to be walking down those staircases, oh, how lovely that would be, just dreaming! But wouldn't that be nice? Thank again.
One of my sisters made that comment about coming down the staircase as a bride when she saw inside the house of the person she was buying a puppy from.
@@stevenkaskus6173 I believe you and your sister. I think that, that would be soo cool. Especially that beautiful staircase love it. It is such a beautiful mansion inside and out. Thanks for commenting. Have a good night.
Prom and homecoming too
@@douglasvilledarling2935 That's true. That would be awesome too. Didn't think of that one.
The main entrance staircase in this house reminds me of staircases in Classical movies. By the way, Classical movies are my fav, so this house brings out many different eras in it’s modern form. A genius design!
His voice tells us this location is somewhere in Canada ... “ Hoause “ & “ aout “
No Daoubt
Just thinking that
Hmmmm....he didn't seem to have an accent to me but I am Canadian sooooo....lol.
True dat true dat👍🏽😂
What are you are talking aboot.
It would be cool to have some historical context about the houses you film.
Thanks
This would make a lush bed and breakfast. All sleek and modern. The family could live in the basement and use the rest of the home as the bed and breakfast.
You have the perfect idea.
only 100.000CAD /night
Honestly, who needs that much living space? Beautiful staircases and windows but some of it looks very formal, like offices/conference rooms. Thanks for taking us through it, it was cool....👍👍👏👏
Yeah, pretty wasteful, like most rich people. The heating bill alone would be crazy.
It would not be unusual (in some private sectors) for someone with that level of wealth to have office, and staff facilities at their home. Treat them like satellite offices from corporate
It’s not about need, it’s about having one bigger than their friends or associates. Who’s got the bigger D
I don't know why but this house gave me the CREEPS! It's a a nice house but something about it is creepy. Thanks for sharing.
This house was just unreal! I can’t even imagine owning something this spectacular. There is just so much to this home & to have it unfinished is such a shame. Obviously it has been protected from vandalism & one can only hope that it can be be finished one of these days so that the designer/owner’s dream can be brought to life. Great job Ethan capturing it’s “pre glory” 👍
Owning this? I couldn't even afford to heat this!
Its more likely the general contractor building it was skimming extra money and cutting corners and the appraiser for the bank decided the house would not be worth its estimated value when finished and the bank then stops giving money out and the person holding the loan has to sue the builder. Meanwhile the house could sit empty and unfinished for years until its settled in court at which time the bank will auction it of and write off the loss
chuck d wow! That would suck! I would have to chase down that contractor........make it my mission!
So if it was allegedly worth $18mil but it actually sold for $13mil then yeah. That's still a lot of money tho
Yup that's likely what happened.
So after a little research, about 5 minutes worth, the house has not been abandoned since 2012. The property has only been on the market since Feb 27, 2020. It's likely that construction was halted at some point towards the end of 2019. It is currently on the market for $17.9 million.
How do they find places like this
Really? Where is this located? How large is the whole property?
Awesome !!!
If you wanna sell it needs the electricity and water to be working.
@@awhalestale623 Type in $17.9 million dollar house for sale in a search for Ontario, Canada. Then you'll get the result.
Looks like someone's ego was bigger than their britches 🤣
Bigger than their wallet too😄
This world has been deceived with this “jesus” LIE, let me explain
YaH The Heavenly FATHER was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote in Exodus 3, when Moses asked YaH His Name
HERE IT IS, IN HIS OWN HANDWRITING
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The Nail"
@@Praise___YaH you are wrong the devil is real, he deceived everyone by not thinking he's real. When my son was 21yrs old He was in a near fatal car accident in coma 20days. Fast forward to 5 months we watched the true story of is Heaven Real and the part when they showed Jesus picture my son said he just got the chills and pointed at the t.v. and said that's him he was there with grandma and his friend Kassie. He met Jesus, so stop being brainwashed by the devil. Jesus is waiting on people to wake up.
Is this Sherrie from off of housewives of Atlanta shows house? Jkjk 😂 She got it going now
Maybe they a Divorce!!!!!
Ethan, I love hearing your reactions as you go thru the rooms. Not my style but, I can appreciate the beautiful architecture in this mansion.
“There’s some apartments with rooms like that”
All new yorkers felt that 👁👄👁
and us in japan 😅
i felt it from the city too i could do so much with this
Speechless! It’s amazing how someone could just abandon a beautiful piece of property like this and many others.
Holy crud u go down into "the basement" and there's another shopping mall down there 😂
LOL
🤣🤣
It does look like a mall! Or a museum!
I KNOW! the basements freaking awesome!
Thank you for this walk thru! I have never been inside a house so massive. Even though it wasn’t finished you could use your imagination how you would love to see it finished so cool. I wouldn’t or couldn’t think about cleaning all those bathrooms. Imagine they would have it done or take all day just to clean them. Lol just gorgeous this mansion!?Thanks again for the opportunity to enjoy!❤
I would be scared to walk around my own house 😂 i tried to come up with reasons for each room but you just cant ?
@Denise I would actually like it, I don’t get scared by walking around my house with lights off
I could. Lol I was thinking, there is the craft room, the bowling alley, spa room, media room, game room, indoor kids playroom w/jungle gym and bounce house, gym, dance room, piano/music room, outdoor kitchen. This is my dream house.
I'd just live in the basement. Who needs the rest of the house ?
Speaking as a commercial electrician a residential home having a dedicated Room for electrical and HVAC Is pretty noteworthy all on its own!! Awesome videos BTW this one is more tame for me since this looks like what I work in near the end of a project
Breath taking,but no way would I want to clean that house everyday.
What a beautiful house and what a waste of
money.I wonder who owns these mansion
he must be filthy , filthy rich but why did they
abandoned it.?no more fund. It’s to big anyway
plus the maintenance.anyway loved it.
If you had the money to build this house you'd be able to hire a cleaning service or have live in housekeeper.
I pay a bed am stay in it
Live in maids, chef, nanny etc...
I would hire a team once a week. No problem.
Love the way you're so real with your opinions and being real in your speech! Keep up the good work
Having a house that big makes no sense to me. If I had that kind of money I would build me a simple tiny home.
Not me, I’ll take it with no hesitation
IF you had that kind of money, I assure you, over time your perceptions will adjust.
Pure greed
and if you had a regular amount of money would you buy a simple medium home? or still a tiny home? im confused
You obviously don't know how fun it can be to play hide and seek
It just kills me seeing these beautiful houses cuz there's so many people homeless at this time. Like me who would appreciate just a closet space to live in lol. A throw away society...
@John Smith we don't know why it was abandoned, and this or these people may have earned it, respectfully.
@@AlexaCBrown no way. Not now that we the people know what that means. Probably tunnels under it.
Call 211 in your state for rental assistance!
🙏 💙 🙏
Agree! Way too many empty homes everywhere and sooooooo many homeless, something ain't right!
Most of Keyboard warriors should give their spare rooms to squatters.
Look other videos about abandoned places: Poverty is not an excuse for vandalism.
You found yourself a diamond this time. I really enjoyed this Ethan. Nice place. I would have loved to live there. Sending love's be safe. Grandma
Can’t get over how massive that house is too bad it couldn’t get finished and with the heated floors wow 😮 thanks for sharing
I'd get lost in there every room looks the same. Would make a beautiful bed and breakfast though that or an event venue.
Great idea!
That was my first thought!
Watching this makes me feel as if I am lost at sea !
What a massive house.
Where are they at in what state where home is unfinished to be done?
A billionaire build a massive home up on a small Mountain near my house a realtor up here said he only stays in it a few weeks out of the year for residency can't imagine having that much money another high-end car you didn't mention is the McLaren good looking car about 250k
Hope this place gets sold and finished before someone goes in and trashes it. I hate how disrespectful people can be. And there could be hundreds of reasons why the construction has been stopped. Love how everyone speculates. This is an amazing place for the right people or purpose. If you get an update, you should let us know.
Right they should single this off with a high voltage fence or something
I would never see anything like this except for your channel. Thank you.
This house is crazy. The size of it is crazy, would definitely get lost in there.
For construction supplies to still be in there too is ridiculous.
Staircase is amazing too!
Homeless people all over the world and houses like this are just left to rot !! what a disgraceful waste of materials! money! and land!
cat wilk I have no idea who the owners of this new home are or why the construction of this home was not fully completed. That being said, my relatives live nearby and they knew the previous owners of this property who had a different house on this lot that was demolished back in the fall of 2012. The mansion that was previously on this property was actually ALSO ABANDONED from 2009-2012...That May be hard to believe but it’s actually true, and I’m shocked to see that the new house has become neglected like the previous one was...The old mansion was almost as big as this one is, although it was definitely more low key and on a lesser scale than the new one. This is NOT CONFIRMED but there is a rumour about the previous owners which explains why there house was abandoned for three years. The previous owners had allegedly fled Canada because the feds in the United States 🇺🇸 were after them for an undisclosed reason, and as a result had to leave their home in Canada behind. Apparently they fled to either the Bahamas or the Philippines, to avoid being sent to. Prison in the USA 🇺🇸 ...The previous home had CAMERAS literally EVERYWHERE that covered every square inch of that whole property...All of these homes have high tech cameras, but nowhere NEAR to the extent that these people did...I explored the old home in the summer of 2012 and the inside was actually in decent shape, but felt way more creepy than this house does. The grounds were fucked , they had gigantic weeds growing through the driveway, and the grass looked like it hadn’t been cut in YEARS...It was super weird initially, but over the past eight years I’ve seen this sort of thing happen to many more homes in this neighbourhood, and it’s a colossal fucking tragic waste...You can see the previous mansion on GOOGLE street views...The place looked fine in 2009, but once you move over to 2011 you can see the house and grounds both started to look overgrown as well as run down...
Oh yeah such a waste. Im a finish carpenter, and these type of stupid greedy people employ a lot of people to build these homes. I agree they are stupid with their money but at least some people get to work. Work is good.
@@thedoctalove1573 If your relatives live nearby than I'm sure you know this home is not abandoned and is currently listed for sale.
@Christine Herrington How?
Practically how?
This is a question that I've pondered. OK so you've got a 2 or 3 million, and instead of putting a deposit down on a mansion like this you decide to help the homeless instead.
Now assuming that you're the type of person who would build a house like this you're probably working 65 to 80 hours a week building at least one company.
So walking the streets searching for homeless people to help is out of the question.
So how do you make any impact at all with such a small contribution and no time?
@Christine Herrington Not really. It's only a 7 bed, so you'd get 3, max 4, flats out of it, with extensive redevelopment of the common areas. It would probably cost over $600k just for the Reno assuming you could get permission.
Then someone would still have to pay for services and maintenance of the communal areas and grounds.
There is only TWOS word for that place UNFRICKING BELIEVABLE 🤪 really enjoyed the video...excellent job ..
I just love your excitement, it’s just what I would be doing. I couldn’t handle that much house💜💟
It's not abandoned sir, it's unfinished. The power is still on.
Facts you can tell it's still being done he buggin 😂
Fact. I have seen this home in person now and it is lived in!
I was gonna say... the amount of construction supplies, wood and tools layin around really doesn’t scream abandoned to me...
@@forgottenhomesofcanada7886 Doubts
Well! Ethan! This was an amazing and exciting find!! Don't ever apologize! I was as blown away as you were!!! Sad it just sits there not finished!! Difficult to believe someone who was building this size home would "run out of money"!!! And to think; they couldn't have taken into account the cost to furnish and staff this house after it was completed, let alone the taxes and maintenance, is mind boggling!! You just can't fix stupid! Thanks so much Ethan! Great work!
The heating/cooling bill alone for this house would be astronomical.
16,000 SQ foot high efficiency it would run roughly $2,000 a month highest season summer use. Lot more in winter.
@@kennethwallace4338 no. It would be closer to 1000$. the average cost to heat or cool a new home of 2000sq.ft. is about 125-150$. My moms 6000sq.ft. house built in the 80s costs about 400$ per month.
@@kennethwallace4338 thats more then my rent. Lol
With about 14KW of solar on the roof and 6 PowerWalls the bill would be virtually zero or negative. Assuming this is in Florida.
Edit: It's in Canada, so you'd probably need to push that to 16KW.
All of the showers are exceptional in size. Large & tile work fantastic! So sad someone had to drop their dream house, because of loose budgeting practice.😢 Ethan u are just plan a genius at discovering places, then touring them with you skilled talent! Keep it up!!!🎉❤😊
Sense the electricity and water are still working I honestly don’t think that house is abandoned. They probably either stopped building or slowed down the building or postponed it because of the Corona virus. That house looks too new and still being worked on to even be abandoned.
This is break and enter .....how did you get in and do you have no sense of private property? Get out!
@@lorriepriddle8604 calm down, he is always respectful and never discloses the area. I see your point but he said he had done research and knew it was abandoned.
@@lorriepriddle8604 he’s not breaking in shut up
@@rockycunningham1078 Oh I'm sure whom ever owns this just didn't walk away from this. Also how did he get in??? Nobody just walked away kept the electric & water on! Somebody owns this & probably doesn't want you there! Notice there's still ladders etc in the house?¿???
I agree…someone is paying the electric and water bills, even if not being used. Also note…no dust anywhere! And a billionaire is not going to run out of money to finish! My boyfriend is a multi millionaire…and he wouldn’t even run out of money to finish this!
Those are theaters in the basement- at least 2. Also next to the kitchen was the "butler's pantry" where the caterers set up and serve from. The "office in the basement was "refreshments area" for the theaters. And there was at least one huge dining room. There would be a gym room, maybe a playroom, maybe a music room. I used to do child care for wealthy families. Some of that mechanical could have been for an elevator shaft to each floor
I agree 100%. Gameroom, arcade, bowling alley. I would think a spa too.
Just a couple of notes....the kitchen was correctly identified, and the room after would be the butler's pantry. most of the dishware, and food storage would be back there. The room across the hall, with the bay window, would be the formal dining room (this is why the butler's pantry is where it is, it's a good place to do the final touches to the dinner, right before it goes out to the guests). Laundry would be in the basement, of course. One of the rooms you thought might be yet another bathroom was likely the laundry (convenient to the pool as well, to dry towels). those two front rooms by the front door seemed to have some kind of tech in them. likely part of the security system. Also, the counters that looked like a kitchen in the basement would've been a wet bar. no doubt, there would be glassware, and a cooler, etc installed.
I Love This House Soo Much....
Gorgeous!!!....
Love -Love-Love It....
Gorgeous home. I can't believe someone just left it. Looks like your next home 🙂
Think if I lived there I would get so lost if living in that house. Would probably take me a week to find a my bedroom. 💕. Love all the floors,. They used materials that would be great in any design. Love, love,. Thank you for showing, thank you for being respectful of the property.
Omg 😳 this frustrates me, I can’t understand why a person couldn’t keep budget to keep building, what a waste😡 this house is breathtaking, love your videos Ethan but this one is mind boggling 😱 just WOW. Thanks for this remarkable journey 🥰🥰🥰
a lot of times the builder is the reason houses are never finished, they bleed the money right out of your bank account at an alarming rate. they promise this for this price but then turn around and tell you that the cost of materials have gone up or they no longer can get certain items and you'll have to go with the closest one they can find at a much higher price.
I think I like this house more than the most of others - the one exception perhaps being the one with the pool that could be covered over and used as a ballroom. That's what I thought that some of those massive rooms in the basement are meant to be used as: if not a ballroom, at least a space where large parties could be held. One of the few things that I'd add to a house like that is a movie room/theatre. I remeber that one of the retired French Canadian hockey players (can't remember who - perhaps Guy Lafleur?) had a huge house, and had a bowling ally on one end of the home. So there's that. ThatYour enthusiasm is always the best part of the video Ethan. Thank you for being you. I should add: At the time of this video you were happy that you had over 10,000 subscribers. You now have over 87,000. Life is good. :)
It’s clean, powered and 90% complete. Congratulations on filming a construction site.
Would not live in a house this large, because i would be taking days finding my way out. Too many rooms.
Not to mention the property tax! Yikes!
I agree
I totally agree with you.
What an amazing house. The closet is bigger than my bedroom. It is hard to imagine that much money for a house. 👍🤗☀️
I can see why you wanted to hold off with the stair it’s so amazing this house … thank you ☺️
It reminds me of David Siegel's new house in Queen of Versailles. Last I knew they ran out of money and construction stopped
That’s what I thought when saw the front of the building
They were able to get the financing and the house is now complete, from what I understand.
Id be terrified to live in a house that large. Way too big!
Exactly! Too many people wanting to break in on you! Have to sleep with one 👁 open at all times! Any sound would make you jump!
Me too I wouldn’t feel safe one bit
That's what she said!
Im always the door locker. I cant sleep till I've shut and locked everydoor. I'd never sleep
@@onlawr I agree I Always sleep in my living room No Matter how big or little the house is but me I like something little I make sure every window and Doors are lock tight I'm a light Sleepy.
Wonderful job on this video. You should be proud of yourself.
Thanks Ethan and all the other explores who show us these beautiful homes. We would never be able to see them if not for you guys. Very much appreciated. It's just sad so many of them get sold and torn down. What a waste. Thanks for saving there memory on video. Keep the mansions coming.
Good job Ethan 👍. Beautiful house. And like so many other comments: Who starts building a house like that and runs out of money? 😂😂
Probably people who lives beyond their means ...or I heard of a wealthy man that built a house like that for his wife , then she died and the gorgeous house was left unfinished .
Imagine playing a game of Hide and Seek in that house.
OMG, what a Mansion!!!! Only thing that was missing Ethan was the mirrors in the bathrooms, I missed you saying, what's up u guys? Hahaha. I hope you keep continuing to do well. I love these homes.
Just thinking the same thing - no mirrors - so no - what's up you guys !!!
@@coppertopolo I guess Ethan has us spoiled haha
I've been enjoying your videos. Can't fathom having the money to build those. A lifestyle that's a level we're not used to. But boy is it fun to see what they look like. Kind of sad they went over their budget. Hope someone buys it and completes it. All my siblings and families could live in there!
some cultures have several families living in one home>mom and dad, siblings >grandparents
It's odd that the water and electric are still on ... who's paying for that, and why?
Probably the bank keeping it on
For the heat so water pipes don’t break, water for the heated floors
Almost all the houses he visits have power still. Tbh ive just wondered if its a canadian thing lol if so thats awesome though!
Todd Bockman my guess drug owned????
Todd Bockman maybe finishing little at a time bank probably been paid off just doing things at a time!!
You are the man Ethan!! Glad too see you aren’t letting negative people ruin your day! Here’s my take on a few things. First, so many people keep commenting that you are trespassing. Well let’s say that this is true, why should they even care, let alone make negative comments? You didn’t get to 10k subscribers by accident, you earned them by being an explorer for all these years! No one is forcing any of these people too subscribe to your channel, let alone watch your videos. Apparently they like what they see, otherwise they’d just unsubscribe and go about their business. Second, a YT’er must interact with his viewers, or why even have a channel to begin with? So to the people who say you talk too much, they know how to unsubscribe. Third, people obviously don’t read any of the comments, or they’d figure out you have been saying that this place is in Canada for the millionth time, as you won’t reveal the actual street address, which is totally understandable! Also, most every exploration channel I’m either subscribed to and/or watched, the majority of them sneak into places to film either abandoned or empty places, whether it be a home or business. So many of the top YT urban explorers all sneak into places, otherwise you’d never have videos to watch of abandoned places. YT’ers like Dan Bell, Aces Adventures, The Proper People, etc..., all sneak into most places to film, so good for you on not letting that negativity bother you! If they get caught, 9 times out of 10, they are just asked to leave, as I’ve never heard of an urban explorer being arrested for filming an abandoned place!! Keep up the awesome job my brother!!
I’m with you Ethan. I love the older homes with character. If I had that kind of money this is NOT the home I would buy.
Wow! It would take me years to stop getting turned around in there. Beautiful home!
Let’s hope that basement doesn’t leak!
you'd have to be a billionaire just for taxes & heating that monstrosity, awesome video hon, please stay safe 👍😍
Ethan I can't believe who has that kind of money to start such of beautiful home to just leave it WOW
this is a beautiful house I especially love the basement SO gorgeous! thanks for sharing with us! :)
