Ethan, over the 6 burner stove, that is called a "pot filler." This is so the cook does not have to fill the pot at the sink and carry it to the stove. The pot can be placed on the stove and then fill it with water. This is helpful if it is a large stock pot.
Yeah, you only need to carry it if you're slow, or if u need the pot bad enough and can't wait, I guess. Odds are u can afford more than one if u can afford that house tho
The owners already destroyed it, leaving it's foundation room to the mold and open filled pool, big mistake, they just lost the entire value of that derelict....Moth & Dust...& MOLD.
They built that house with simple, timeless, classic design materials. All you need to do to update it would be paint, and new light fixtures. Cabinets in the kitchen maybe, but it’s all really beautiful! Great explore Nathan! I like seeing not destroyed, and totally ruined explores from time to time. 👍
This is actually very common, unfortunately. Borrowing money to fund life & business ventures, so liquid isn’t enough to protect them from a recession. Queen of Versailles is a great example. 2008 screwed a lot of people, even the ultra wealthy. Even if a majority of $ is in stocks, if push comes to shove & they need to cash out, the taxes can be a huge hit & not leave enough to accommodate the lifestyle they were used to. There’s so many reasons why this could happen, but ultimately its poor financial planning & not actually living within means.
Awesome estate and in great condition. Nice to see a property of this caliber not having been vandalized or in disrepair. Unimaginable the level of opulence that those with such wealth live . Good coverage guy's. 👍🏼
Not been vandalized yet you mean. It probably would have more patrol cars driving around considering the area. Plus it looks as if someone is at least doing the upkeep.
Ethan, there's not a whole lot of educating you needed. You are very intelligent and wise beyond your years. Plus you are an old soul too. You have such an appreciation for vintage things.
And also, he runs around and finds these places, and gives us the grand tour . . . So, we can overlook a lot of the things that come out of his mouth, huh ? We would NEVER see this place, without Ethan !
Despite this house being older, it was beautifully done! A ton of attention to detail! Would love to know the backstory of this house. Thanks for sharing!
Oh Ethan- this home took my breath away. The glass entry doors with the fancy wrought iron inlay. That entry hall- just awesome. The attention to detail; the gorgeous wood, slate, & marbled floors. The fireplace mantles - just tremendous. You find THE Best places to explore and share with us. Thank🪴You SO much. Love your channel. Great Job.🙌🏻
Greetings Sweet Ethan! So polite. This house is built in the spirit of Vanderbilt Grandeur! Unhappily Vanderbilt was too generous & he went bankrupt. This house is the best quality I've ever seen you do! Nice to see your cheerfulness. America could use some cheerfulness about now. I'll look out for the rude people Ethan-My 'tone' will match theirs & they won't like it. We love you in Kansas, Ethan. Some of us just can't get out as easily as you.
It is sad to hear people are rude and not nice to you. You give the absolute best tours........best info......and you are so nice!!!! Most personable and you seem to really appreciate the architecture.....the opulence......and with respect. You are the most respectful treating these homes as though they are occupied . Great job!!! Love listening to you and watching your vids. Robb in Chicago
I saw this house listed for sale 2-3 years ago and it was perfectly furnished and styled. I guess whoever bought it never moved in and just let it rot.
@@Maggiex58 Is he not allowed to give constructive feedback? A mature person wouldn't be bothered by that at all. And clearly several people agree with him considering all the upvotes.
My husband use to work on homes like this in Naples, Florida. Layed stone, brick, marble, he was about the best around. But after 25 yrs, we decided to come back to Ohio. Just way to many people moving in the area.
If I had a bottom less supply of money I doubt I could ask for anything more than this, every thing from the magnificent ceilings down to the skirting boards is pure class and timeless design. I just love it and how it sits empty stuns me.
This house is absolutely gorgeous! I sincerely hope they’re just going to renovate it instead of demolishing it. I personally would only care about taking care off the mold around the pool area before moving into it.
This would be a great house to live in as a kid, never ending exploring of all the closets and huge rooms, even that indoor pool. As a grown up this beautiful house gives me the creeps in a way I could never live here.
Wow! What a beautiful house. A taste of how the 1% lives. I loved the wood flooring. I hope all of these gorgeous materials aren’t wrecked. Thanks for the showing!
This place was just OMG! The only real "reno" the place needs is to get rid of the mold. I agree that the 2-way mirror to the pool area is a bit creepy. The architecture was gorgeous. Loved those skylights. Loved the herringbone wood floor. That kitchen was amazing - I would love to have space for a wine fridge. The master suite area was wild. The master bathroom was gorgeous. And I also really liked the black and mirror bathroom! The one room with all the mirrors and the TV, was probably some kind of dance practice room. There was also a ballet barre behind the TV.
I'd hazard that the whole area was intended to be open and the glass was inserted as a temporary safety measure to prevent unsupervised access by a young child.
@@gracecollins8415 oh! You're probably right! How awful that we jump to the worst about someone when it really should have been that obvious! I suppose because the questions than becomes, than why a 2 way mirror and not just a window? But that too seems obvious now. But i appreciate you putting it back into what is likely the proper focus and isn't so nefarious as we first thought
Wow, magnificently beautiful! I wish we could have seen what it looked like when it was fully furnished and decorated! Impressive find guys.. keep up the wonderful work, thanks for giving us fascinating content! 💕
What's up Ethan! What a gorgeous mansion! That thing on the back of the stove is a pot filler. Like if you're boiling pasta or something and that little pass way off the kitchen eith the wine fridge is a butlers pantry. The 2 way mirror is creepy. The masters suite is fabulous! The doggo made the explore even better. Hope this gets renovated. Probably takes a lot to heat a place like this. I wouldn't want to pay those utilities! Keep rockin!
AWESOME explore Ethan!! I have nothing to add that hasn't already been said. I just do not understand how people build such a massive, luxurious property just to go bankrupt. Thank you for the work you put into finding these beautiful mansions to show all of us. I enjoy looking. Some people seem bitter that the rich have so much but at the end of the day we all die & leave everything behind. Having family, love & contentment is worth more than all the marble palaces in the world. And you have found a passion that brings you much joy & all of us out here in YT land love it too. ✌🏽☮✌🏽
His luck clearly ran out, clearly he thought it never would. If he had vision he wouldn't have built something so massive and expensive that if something changed he could not afford. I am not bitter about rich, more sad that they can make these poor decisions. Really his own stupidity and someone else/bank will probably foot the bill for this huge mistake. So sad to see this much work and beauty go abandoned. Maybe 1% of the world can afford this home, so hopefully someone can get in before it gets loitered. I agree family and life-long happiness are much more important than what million dollar mansion or car you can afford. Too many blinded by what our real focus here is!
I said the exact same thing to my mom this morning. Happiness comes from inside. Nothing external can bring happiness and contentment. I wish a very good friends of mine understood that.
Thank you, I enjoyed the detailed tour! This is a timeless designed mansion home. It just need cleaning and maybe checking for leaks which is normal and ready to sell. I personally wouldn't change much about this property because it is truly a timeless masterpiece.
Tap dancing was popular in 1989 and people were asking for dedicated dance rooms with ballet barres, weird thing is the electric baseboard heater in the room. A gem of a house, long time coming and thanks for sharing it with your viewers. Too bad nobody thought to empty the pool.
Absolutely beautiful home! Such a shame it's been allowed to deteriorate the way it has, particularly downstairs where the indoor pool is. I bought a 9500 square foot Spanish-style home back in the mid 1990's in Tennessee. It also had a 2000 sq.ft "Florida Room" that consisted of a 40,000gallon indoor pool, hot tub, wet bar, & billiard area. Indoor pools are a real pain to maintain & always a chore to prevent them from causing water damage elsewhere if not constantly monitored & maintained! Surprised this place wasn't worse sitting empty with the water in the pool for a year & half!?!? Still, back in the day when I could've afforded the upkeep on such a large home, I wouldve loved this place!! Of course my large home was nowhere near $15million since it was in Tennessee, but this place you explored is like a dream home in my view. Thank you for the walk-through!! Can't wait to see your next explore!!!
I love this home so much, watched it back in November and am watching again in Jan 2022. Thank you for sharing all of your explores, always keep your integrity.
This is amazing, such an incredible find. The faucet on the stove is called a pot filler. It's so unfortunate that they didn't pump the water out of the pool to save the basement from damage, at least it's fixable. I'm only going to correct you on one thing because I love how you always try to learn about the materials and the architecture (which is why I follow you) - Versailles is pronounced Ver-Sigh, but yes they definitely took inspiration from French architecture for this home. I can imagine how this home would be decorated for Christmas - mind blowing beautiful.
I am getting the chills about this house it's so beautiful..I dont think I have ever seen anything so beautiful..I love it..I hope it does not get torn down..and it gets saved...This beauty of a property deserves to be appreciated in this lifetime....
Incredible Mansion. Massive Room in here. Geez the bathrooms are endless. And the closet space wow. The Foyer is so beautiful and airy. The indoor swimming pool knocked my socks off. The mold was nasty looking. Great Job on this one. Take Care.
Such a big beautiful mansion, the front door entryway is very nice and the stairway.And pretty fireplaces and pretty shiny wood floors.First place I've seen with a swimming pool made into the basement.They should have put it outside the place.
with this home purchased just a year ago and owners are paying the electric bill, I wouldn't consider this "abandoned". Owners move was probably delayed by covid.
I usually get annoyed with "what's up, guys" whenever Ridim Ryder says it but, you, idk why, it gives you a charm. It's kind of cute actually. Lol. You have done well so, good job, Ethan! 💖
@@karendworschack756 Euh... they're friends so, I don't think Riddim has an issue with it because Ethan said it before during an exploration with Riddim. Idk why but, I like to hear Ethan say it once in a while. 😏
WOW ! First Off, your videography was everything. Thanks for zoning in on the characteristic details of the property. Additionally; what an epic find!!! I'am blown away.
This house is beautiful! They should of drained the pool probably would have avoided a lot of the mold. The furry kid was the best part... That baby was really loving looking around! 🐾
I live in the UK and a lot of big houses in London are brought by people from abroad for investment and never lived in and are now falling to pieces. I always think it is a shame if places like that are pulled down even if they turned it into high end flats they would save some beautiful homes.
Crown molding in the bathrooms!!! Totally awesome! Loved this house. Thanks for the tour. Hope those owners do something with it soon before that pool and the black mold ruin the place. Also loved the fur baby trotting around! The click of his toe nails on all the different flooring sounded great. I have always had dogs and the loneliest sound in the world is NOT hearing those clicking paw steps.👍❤🐅🇺🇸
I think the room with the mirrors could be a ballerina room and the small area with the curtain that you can pull will be the stage where performances are done for those sitting in the den.
The mirrored room in the basement is a dance studio! The wooden bar across the back mirrors is for ballet practice!! The 2 way mirror is so parents can be in the theater room & still be able to watch the kids.
I’m watching this two months after you posted it so I’m late but I hope you see this. Please don’t let the trolls live in your head. Myself and many others enjoy your content. We want to watch you and the amazing places you explore. Ignoring the haters is easier said than done. Be yourself. No need to comment on the haters hating, that only feeds them. 😘
The faucet on the top of stove is a pot filler also known as a pasta arm or kettle faucet. It can be used to fill pots with water directly over the stove. House is amazing. How people leave houses like that to just sit there and waste it away. Unbelievable. Dog addiction is great for the tour. Love it!
The thing above the stove is called a "pot filler." It's hooked up to hot water so you can fill your pots with hot water when cooking items such as pasta, potatoes soups etc.
I'm watching this beautiful home on my tablet. I'm unaware that I've viewed your nice video 3 months ago. I really appreciate the hard work you and others do to share amazing homes that are filled with gorgeous decor and those that are empty with decay as well. Continued Blessings to you all🙌🏾🙏🏾
Great video! Just a few things to mention that might be helpful. The marble in the study looks like porphyry. Gorgeous. And the added ormolu is a nice touch. The item above the stove is a kettle faucet for filling pots with water so you don't have to carry them over from the sink. Versailles is pronounced like "ver-sigh." I'm shocked that the pool wasn't drained. With a full pool and no proper maintenance or air circulation, the mold will take over.
Think the rework way view at pool for watching kids or someone swimming while socializing and having a drink. Indoor pools that don’t get kept vented and cleaned always do the mold thing. Love the walk through! I will definitely have to have an elevator when I move into a place like this! Thanks for sharing.
Hello Ethan, I'm new to ur videos and I must say I enjoyed it emensely. Don't let small minds discourage u when learning your craft, u are doing just fine. Learning as u go is a treasure trove of goodies and exciting to gain that wisdom and take it on ur next adventure. Keep doing ur videos for I enjoyed this one ALOT!
Unless evil lurks within these walls, there should be no reason to destroy this house. Restoring and making it ones own should be the only way this houses future should be.
That long narrow room with the mirrored walls that freaked you out is a ballet studio. The bar mounted on the wall gives it away. The most unusual feature of this whole house are the amount of recessed can lights in the living areas that are mounted close to the walls. Done to highlight art work, fireplaces, wall and window coverings. Would have been quite dramatic at night.
What a great fine. This house is so Beautiful. I still say bring a mask with you at all time. You just know what you may find MOLD. So I hope someone fixes it up. I love the dog, bring him. With you the next time. He was really have fun. This was a great find Stay safe, and what's up to you too.💜💙
I just found your channel..I'm stuck now! Absolutely love your exploration and choices you bring us in your video's 🙂And the beautiful doggie when he came trotting in so happy,He was thinking is this our new home 😆..Great video..Thank you.
Very beautiful house. This one definitely has great features, like the arch windows, crown molding, marble fireplaces and wood floors. Nice staircase too. You can tell that Quality materials were used building this place. That pool is going become a worse problem if not taken care of soon. Would love to have that fabulous Cream color sofa downstairs. What furniture was there looked high end.
That house is amazing… hopefully someone can buy it and fix the mold before it just ruins the place. I’d love to live there… yes, it would be so sad if that’s torn down…
This house was beyond cool!! I could live here except the mold has to go!! It’s so huge I could wander for days and not care I was lost!! It is beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing this beauty!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖
This house seems so familiar to me like I saw it in a real estate video on UA-cam when it still looked okay. I recognize the pool, entryway, and the stairs outside that lead to the doors to the pool.
Love this house. Beautiful details and I loved all the fireplaces. Disappointed about the pool mold though. I hope someone does something amazing with it soon. The mirrors off the pool were probably to allow the parents to watch the kids when they were swimming. I don’t find anything creepy in the house except for the mechanical room, ha ha. If you were wealthy this would totally be worth a clean up and refresh since they left everything really neat and tidy. The master is a statement in itself, and might be the only room I would reconfigure, but more in line with what seems like the storage is all over the place. Would be cool to know who designed this home. The flooring is amazing as well. So, we did not get much of a view of the land. The gardener in me hopes it is as beautiful with possibilities as well. 2 large dogs with a family and lots of family visiting to make memories.
I just love your videos Ethan!!!, keep up the awesome work ! I never comment on videos but really wanted to express my appreciation for what you do. I get your passion, respect, love for all these homes that are so sadly being torn down to build OTT tacky homes now that become outdated in a few years. The older homes, esp mid century ones which I adore, stood the test of time. Cool design, architecture. I grew up in a stunning area in GTA with mid century homes on gorgeous streets/ lots, but sadly all being torn down. I always wonder if you have done any where I grew up, but hard to know cause you rarely show the outside. How do you find these places ? How do you gain access ?? Thank you for documenting, recording and sharing all these treasures. I would be proud to have a son like you, you really are an old soul, as other followers have said !
The mirrored room down the bottom had a ballet bar maybe for the dancing girls of the family. The 2way mirror was probably to keep an eye on the kids without them knowing. Parents do things like that in huge houses. Not so creepy 😐 yes beautiful home I would fix mold problem I wouldn't change much and I'd live there happily Vickie Annakin Australia, Sydney n.s.w
What a gorgeous house, even though it is from the 80”s. Minus the mold, update washer and dryer ( assuming I had that kind of money) I would take that house and use it for children that need a home and loving care 👍
Exactly. Is that your dream to do that. Put children in beautiful homes? Its mine. I would love to meet a like minded woman to make that happen. I live in Detroit. Return message to further the dream. I would buy this home. And off we go. True story. I'm not fooling. Very serious. We will change the world.🙏
Wow amazing. First room IMO is a study. Living room - Looks like slate flooring with travertine walls (weird for walls). Kitchen - above the stove the fixture is pot filler. Wood flooring design is beautiful. Great vid thanks.
This was an incredible house. I couldn’t even imagine growing up in something like this as a child. All those bathrooms. At one point we were 6 people in a 3 bed/1 bath house of maybe 1200 sf. Even now I don’t think I could ever become comfortable living in something like that although I’d like to give it a try, as long as someone else did the housework. Too much for me these days. It’s a shame about the pool area. Some of those pools are not meant to be empty for very long. The water actually keeps the sides from collapsing. They must have left the heater on in the pool to keep it from freezing and the humidity from that caused the mold. I suspect there is someone monitoring the pool chemicals or it wouldn’t be in that good of condition. They should have had exhaust fans going since the power is on. I think the shower within a shower was a steam shower. I stayed in a hotel once that had that in a huge shower. Great find and sad too.
If you meant what I think you meant, Versailles is pronounced Ver-sai. Otherwise, forget I said anything. Lol Anyhow, gorgeous house! Kinda hard to believe the pool is still blue without regular maintenance of chemicals. Stunning woodwork throughout, and all those marble fireplaces are sublime! Great find!
The first room that the dog went into , looks like a small library, or office space ! This mansion is amazing nice find! That room in the basement , with the TV, had a railing and mirrors, looks like a dance studio for their daughter maybe!
Like the built in features. Floors are beautiful. Fireplaces are marble nice look. Skylight is really great looking at it. Bathrooms are gorgeous and hugh. Master bathroom is hugh too and amazing.
Loved this house. The architecture and decorating was beautiful. The 2 way mirror was creepy, can't think of a reason to have that in a house. I think the room downstairs with with all the mirrors and tv was an exercise room, there was a ballet bar behind the tv. Add a kitchen to the master suite and it would be a nice apartment. The dog added a lot to the video, you could tell he was having as much fun as you! Great explore!
Supervising kids. Not ruining the separation feel of the pool room, creating a reflective vibe when in the pool at night. Shading the indoors from the brightness of the pool room. There's a few reasons.
You did a great job on this one. It’s an amazing house. I would not know how to live in a house like this. It was all tastefully done. Except the black bathroom. Thank you Ethan.🌹🌹🌹

I think that is funny as there is no drain to empty the pot so, someone will lift it anyway
@@arribaficationwineho32 not necessarily, more often than not a significant amount of water evaporates in the process

Great explore Nathan! I like seeing not destroyed, and totally ruined explores from time to time. 👍
How does a multi millionaire manage to go so bankrupt he has to abandon his $15M house? Amazing. Enjoyed this tour, nice find!
being arrested does it, or 2008 events
Being over leveraged.
@@arribaficationwineho32 or they might got ripped off by the builders

Tap dancing was popular in 1989 and people were asking for dedicated dance rooms with ballet barres, weird thing is the electric baseboard heater in the room. A gem of a house, long time coming and thanks for sharing it with your viewers. Too bad nobody thought to empty the pool.

The heater in the dance room is to keep the muscles warm and prevent injury
Absolutely beautiful home! Such a shame it's been allowed to deteriorate the way it has, particularly downstairs where the indoor pool is. I bought a 9500 square foot Spanish-style home back in the mid 1990's in Tennessee. It also had a 2000 sq.ft "Florida Room" that consisted of a 40,000gallon indoor pool, hot tub, wet bar, & billiard area. Indoor pools are a real pain to maintain & always a chore to prevent them from causing water damage elsewhere if not constantly monitored & maintained! Surprised this place wasn't worse sitting empty with the water in the pool for a year & half!?!? Still, back in the day when I could've afforded the upkeep on such a large home, I wouldve loved this place!! Of course my large home was nowhere near $15million since it was in Tennessee, but this place you explored is like a dream home in my view. Thank you for the walk-through!! Can't wait to see your next explore!!!
I don't usually comment but I love this is one of my favorites. Great job! I love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing these amazing places!
I love this home so much, watched it back in November and am watching again in Jan 2022. Thank you for sharing all of your explores, always keep your integrity.
More than likely to be the the 2 way mirrors are for the adults to keep an eye on the children or guests at the party.
This is amazing, such an incredible find. The faucet on the stove is called a pot filler. It's so unfortunate that they didn't pump the water out of the pool to save the basement from damage, at least it's fixable. I'm only going to correct you on one thing because I love how you always try to learn about the materials and the architecture (which is why I follow you) - Versailles is pronounced Ver-Sigh, but yes they definitely took inspiration from French architecture for this home. I can imagine how this home would be decorated for Christmas - mind blowing beautiful.
Ty
You and I think alike lol. I was thinking how gorgeous it would be at Christmas also.
I am getting the chills about this house it's so beautiful..I dont think I have ever seen anything so beautiful..I love it..I hope it does not get torn down..and it gets saved...This beauty of a property deserves to be appreciated in this lifetime....
Glad you let him know about Versailles, he is obviously not French Canadian.
Incredible Mansion. Massive Room in here. Geez the bathrooms are endless. And the closet space wow. The Foyer is so beautiful and airy. The indoor swimming pool knocked my socks off. The mold was nasty looking. Great Job on this one. Take Care.
Such a big beautiful mansion, the front door entryway is very nice and the stairway.And pretty fireplaces and pretty shiny wood floors.First place I've seen with a swimming pool made into the basement.They should have put it outside the place.
with this home purchased just a year ago and owners are paying the electric bill, I wouldn't consider this "abandoned". Owners move was probably delayed by covid.
I don't see the new owners moving in without doing work. If they have $15m to buy the place, they have money for whatever plans they have.
I usually get annoyed with "what's up, guys" whenever Ridim Ryder says it but, you, idk why, it gives you a charm. It's kind of cute actually. Lol. You have done well so, good job, Ethan! 💖
He actually stole it from Riddim Ryder!
@@karendworschack756 Euh... they're friends so, I don't think Riddim has an issue with it because Ethan said it before during an exploration with Riddim. Idk why but, I like to hear Ethan say it once in a while. 😏
I agree!! Anyone else saying it would get on my nerves... but cracks me up everytime he says it
WOW ! First Off, your videography was everything. Thanks for zoning in on the characteristic details of the property. Additionally; what an epic find!!! I'am blown away.
Queen Does your family by any chance own pizza shop?
the pooch looks happy running around in there 🐕...beautiful home!!!
You are soooo lucky to be able to go in and explore all those uniquely built beautiful homes. A LOT of them are absolutely breathtaking
This house is beautiful! They should of drained the pool probably would have avoided a lot of the mold. The furry kid was the best part... That baby was really loving looking around! 🐾
I wonder if the pool house door was open to get some circulation going?
I live in the UK and a lot of big houses in London are brought by people from abroad for investment and never lived in and are now falling to pieces. I always think it is a shame if places like that are pulled down even if they turned it into high end flats they would save some beautiful homes.
Same is the US. especially in high end New York high rises. Money washing
Over the stove that is a pot filler. I loved this walk threw. Very beautiful, remarkable detail. You all did very good. Thank you🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸
Crown molding in the bathrooms!!! Totally awesome! Loved this house. Thanks for the tour. Hope those owners do something with it soon before that pool and the black mold ruin the place. Also loved the fur baby trotting around! The click of his toe nails on all the different flooring sounded great. I have always had dogs and the loneliest sound in the world is NOT hearing those clicking paw steps.👍❤🐅🇺🇸
I think the room with the mirrors could be a ballerina room and the small area with the curtain that you can pull will be the stage where performances are done for those sitting in the den.
The mirrored room in the basement is a dance studio! The wooden bar across the back mirrors is for ballet practice!! The 2 way mirror is so parents can be in the theater room & still be able to watch the kids.
I’m watching this two months after you posted it so I’m late but I hope you see this. Please don’t let the trolls live in your head. Myself and many others enjoy your content. We want to watch you and the amazing places you explore. Ignoring the haters is easier said than done. Be yourself. No need to comment on the haters hating, that only feeds them. 😘
The faucet on the top of stove is a pot filler also known as a pasta arm or kettle faucet. It can be used to fill pots with water directly over the stove. House is amazing. How people leave houses like that to just sit there and waste it away. Unbelievable. Dog addiction is great for the tour. Love it!
So unbelievably beautiful. So enjoyed seeing your new little exploring buddy 🐕❤ She was having a blast exploring as well.
The thing above the stove is called a "pot filler." It's hooked up to hot water so you can fill your pots with hot water when cooking items such as pasta, potatoes soups etc.
Oh my goodness this house is spectacular, love every inch of this home so glad you found it keep them coming Ethan 🇺🇲 🤗👏👏👏💙
What a beautiful home, I would of like bed to have seen it when it was occupied and the gardens were all kept nice.
Thanks for sharing guys 😉
Thank you for showing this incredible house! It seemed like the dog was very excited exploring this house, too!😊
I'm watching this beautiful home on my tablet. I'm unaware that I've viewed your nice video 3 months ago.
I really appreciate the hard work you and others do to share amazing homes that are filled with gorgeous decor and those that are empty with decay as well.
Continued Blessings to you all🙌🏾🙏🏾
Great video! Just a few things to mention that might be helpful. The marble in the study looks like porphyry. Gorgeous. And the added ormolu is a nice touch. The item above the stove is a kettle faucet for filling pots with water so you don't have to carry them over from the sink. Versailles is pronounced like "ver-sigh." I'm shocked that the pool wasn't drained. With a full pool and no proper maintenance or air circulation, the mold will take over.
The lack of knowledge/education with the younger generation is really upsetting.
Hey the thing above the stove was a water faucet to fill pots up. They are becoming popular in newer houses. Hope this helps. Great video
Love that the personal items seem to have been taken with.
Like all of the beautiful finery. Fur baby is cute too. Thanks for the tour. Great job 👏.
Think the rework way view at pool for watching kids or someone swimming while socializing and having a drink. Indoor pools that don’t get kept vented and cleaned always do the mold thing. Love the walk through! I will definitely have to have an elevator when I move into a place like this! Thanks for sharing.
Hello Ethan,
I'm new to ur videos and I must say I enjoyed it emensely.
Don't let small minds discourage u when learning your craft, u are doing just fine. Learning as u go is a treasure trove of goodies and exciting to gain that wisdom and take it on ur next adventure. Keep doing ur videos for I enjoyed this one ALOT!
Unless evil lurks within these walls, there should be no reason to destroy this house. Restoring and making it ones own should be the only way this houses future should be.
That long narrow room with the mirrored walls that freaked you out is a ballet studio. The bar mounted on the wall gives it away. The most unusual feature of this whole house are the amount of recessed can lights in the living areas that are mounted close to the walls. Done to highlight art work, fireplaces, wall and window coverings. Would have been quite dramatic at night.
I was going to say a dance studio.
I was thinking the same thing!
This is a fabulous home. Thank you for the tour. Crown molding is gorgeous.
Holy massive house!!! 🤜🤛 I loved it!! There's always one creepy chair 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for this awesome tour Ethan ❤️
What a great fine. This house is so Beautiful. I still say bring a mask with you at all time. You just know what you may find MOLD. So I hope someone fixes it up. I love the dog, bring him. With you the next time. He was really have fun. This was a great find
Stay safe, and what's up to you too.💜💙
I just found your channel..I'm stuck now! Absolutely love your exploration and choices you bring us in your video's 🙂And the beautiful doggie when he came trotting in so happy,He was thinking is this our new home 😆..Great video..Thank you.
Very beautiful house. This one definitely has great features, like the arch windows, crown molding, marble fireplaces and wood floors. Nice staircase too. You can tell that Quality materials were used building this place. That pool is going become a worse problem if not taken care of soon. Would love to have that fabulous Cream color sofa downstairs. What furniture was there looked high end.
That house is amazing… hopefully someone can buy it and fix the mold before it just ruins the place. I’d love to live there… yes, it would be so sad if that’s torn down…
It's beautiful I absolutely love it..
This house was beyond cool!! I could live here except the mold has to go!! It’s so huge I could wander for days and not care I was lost!! It is beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing this beauty!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖
Wow what a beautiful house thanks for taking us along with you!
Thank you for doing such a complete tour.
This place is soooooooo beautiful, incredible, hope they don't demolish it, just gorgeous!
Hi Ethan. That “can opener” above the stove is actually a water source to fill pots when cooking. Jsyk. 😊
Another a massive and beautiful house. Thanks again for the great tour.
This is sickening. You have so many poor people sleeping on the streets and you have a house abandoned. How wicked.
The gadget by the burners is Water comes out to fill up the pots!
Pot filler. I'm requesting one in a place I'm looking at being built
That 1/2 bath in entry the mirror was taken down by the look of the mark left looks like it had a fancy shape
Ethan if you are referring to the French palace it's pronounced Ver so or Verseye if that helps more but is spelled Versailles.
Is there a light in the ceiling in that tub/shower?
I'm surprised that this place doesn't have a laundry shute
Phenomenal estate- hopefully they will update and make use of it; so much beauty there!
This house seems so familiar to me like I saw it in a real estate video on UA-cam when it still looked okay. I recognize the pool, entryway, and the stairs outside that lead to the doors to the pool.
Does your family by any chance own pizza shop?
Love this house. Beautiful details and I loved all the fireplaces. Disappointed about the pool mold though. I hope someone does something amazing with it soon. The mirrors off the pool were probably to allow the parents to watch the kids when they were swimming. I don’t find anything creepy in the house except for the mechanical room, ha ha. If you were wealthy this would totally be worth a clean up and refresh since they left everything really neat and tidy. The master is a statement in itself, and might be the only room I would reconfigure, but more in line with what seems like the storage is all over the place. Would be cool to know who designed this home. The flooring is amazing as well. So, we did not get much of a view of the land. The gardener in me hopes it is as beautiful with possibilities as well. 2 large dogs with a family and lots of family visiting to make memories.
I just love your videos Ethan!!!, keep up the awesome work ! I never comment on videos but really wanted to express my appreciation for what you do. I get your passion, respect, love for all these homes that are so sadly being torn down to build OTT tacky homes now that become outdated in a few years. The older homes, esp mid century ones which I adore, stood the test of time. Cool design, architecture. I grew up in a stunning area in GTA with mid century homes on gorgeous streets/ lots, but sadly all being torn down. I always wonder if you have done any where I grew up, but hard to know cause you rarely show the outside. How do you find these places ? How do you gain access ?? Thank you for documenting, recording and sharing all these treasures. I would be proud to have a son like you, you really are an old soul, as other followers have said !
The mirrored room down the bottom had a ballet bar maybe for the dancing girls of the family. The 2way mirror was probably to keep an eye on the kids without them knowing. Parents do things like that in huge houses. Not so creepy 😐 yes beautiful home I would fix mold problem I wouldn't change much and I'd live there happily Vickie Annakin Australia, Sydney n.s.w
Another incredible find Ethan! Looks like there's been some maintenance done in the place, it looks so good !
This house is amazing! I hope it doesn't sit empty for too much longer..
What fun it would be to restore and decorate this gorgeous home - Restoration Hardware would love me.
What a gorgeous house, even though it is from the 80”s. Minus the mold, update washer and dryer ( assuming I had that kind of money) I would take that house and use it for children that need a home and loving care 👍
Exactly. Is that your dream to do that. Put children in beautiful homes? Its mine.
I would love to meet a like minded woman to make that happen. I live in Detroit.
Return message to further the dream.
I would buy this home. And off we go. True story. I'm not fooling. Very serious. We will change the world.🙏
@@jpinthed2169
Her mouth is writing checks.
"Educate nicely"....love it! lol. Great feature, brother! Nice work!
Thank you for this wonderful tour! I loved it, very interesting. :)
Wow amazing. First room IMO is a study. Living room - Looks like slate flooring with travertine walls (weird for walls). Kitchen - above the stove the fixture is pot filler. Wood flooring design is beautiful. Great vid thanks.
This was an incredible house. I couldn’t even imagine growing up in something like this as a child. All those bathrooms. At one point we were 6 people in a 3 bed/1 bath house of maybe 1200 sf. Even now I don’t think I could ever become comfortable living in something like that although I’d like to give it a try, as long as someone else did the housework. Too much for me these days. It’s a shame about the pool area. Some of those pools are not meant to be empty for very long. The water actually keeps the sides from collapsing. They must have left the heater on in the pool to keep it from freezing and the humidity from that caused the mold. I suspect there is someone monitoring the pool chemicals or it wouldn’t be in that good of condition. They should have had exhaust fans going since the power is on. I think the shower within a shower was a steam shower. I stayed in a hotel once that had that in a huge shower. Great find and sad too.
I was wondering if it was a salt water pool...I don't think chemicals are needed then, not like typical chlorinated pools anyways.
No chemicals on salt water pools……best $75k I ever spent, you don’t get all ashy either from the chlorine……
If you meant what I think you meant, Versailles is pronounced Ver-sai. Otherwise, forget I said anything. Lol Anyhow, gorgeous house! Kinda hard to believe the pool is still blue without regular maintenance of chemicals. Stunning woodwork throughout, and all those marble fireplaces are sublime! Great find!
The first room that the dog went into , looks like a small library, or office space ! This mansion is amazing nice find! That room in the basement , with the TV, had a railing and mirrors, looks like a dance studio for their daughter maybe!
Like the built in features. Floors are beautiful. Fireplaces are marble nice look. Skylight is really great looking at it. Bathrooms are gorgeous and hugh. Master bathroom is hugh too and amazing.
Loved this house. The architecture and decorating was beautiful. The 2 way mirror was creepy, can't think of a reason to have that in a house. I think the room downstairs with with all the mirrors and tv was an exercise room, there was a ballet bar behind the tv. Add a kitchen to the master suite and it would be a nice apartment. The dog added a lot to the video, you could tell he was having as much fun as you! Great explore!
Supervising kids. Not ruining the separation feel of the pool room, creating a reflective vibe when in the pool at night. Shading the indoors from the brightness of the pool room. There's a few reasons.
DEF a palace fit for a king! WOW. Stunning.
You did a great job on this one. It’s an amazing house. I would not know how to live in a house like this. It was all tastefully done. Except the black bathroom. Thank you Ethan.🌹🌹🌹
Love how you appreciate the homes and the beautiful details
Even your “random chair” looked like an expensive Scandinavian style chair 🪑!
