In tonight's explore we visit this Beautiful abandoned Mansion set amongst the Countryside of England.
This Mansion was once split up in to two £5M houses and owned by a wealthy business owner who unfortunately declared bankruptcy.
Sat amongst some of the most wealthy people in the UK, this house became a target for vandals and unfortunately has had original windows smashed!
Join me and Pompeye as we explore this Stunning Vacant property.

Loved everything about that place except for the vandalism. Breaks my heart the people just don’t respect what isn’t theirs - the, ‘if I can’t have these things, no one will’. Disgusts me. But you guys did us proud yet again. Thanks Alex. So much appreciated! X
You're welcome Nanny, I agree.
Glad you enjoyed the tour though, thanks for the support as well 😁👍👍👍
@@VacantHaven this isn't Elstree is it?
@@billbailey1511 Has it been demo'd yet?
Then u obliviously haven’t studied “supremacy” 😂😂 of any kind
Ya but them vandals would be the first to cry on social media if shit happened to them!😂
What a beautiful mansion house this must have been. It is sad to see a property like this abandoned. It’s terrible how it has been vandalised by people who have no respect for properties which don’t belong to them. I would like to see this mansion being saved, before it is too late. A great explore guys, thanks for that.
Gonna be hard hearted. Do you know how the original owners GOT the mansion? What if they got it by taking what didn't belong to them either? There are only a few ways in this life that you can get a mansion... And not everyone gets them by fair means. I'm sure Prince Andrew has a mansion... Would it bother you if it was abandoned and then inevitably looted and vandalised or the Vatican beautiful architecturally though it is... Vandalised a lot of cultures to get such a beautiful building...
Dosent make it right or wrong, just people being people.
Life isn't so black and white, no story is.
@@StennMathis that’s right and all manner of reasons why someone leaves very quickly and who knows how they got the money, I herd a story about a huge vat scam where about a hundred people were involved and some were couples who had businesses ect it went into the hundreds of millions and possibly more, but two couples became friendly and they had the ability to rip off the rest of them before they got the biggest amount they had collectively taken, the two couples ripped off the rest of the group, and then got names changed ect and had about four years of hundreds of millions of bliss moving around the world on long holidays and living for months in various homes and hotels they bought, two of them were found, and they were patient hopefully locating the other two, but at that time they had not been able to get them together, so a team was put together to snatch them at the best property and country that they visited that didn’t have the quality of police like the uk for investigation ect, people entered their home and tortured them to find the other two clearly to recover as much money as possible, the torture went to the level of folding a piece of razor wire in two and ramming it into their backsides and pulling it out after being beaten raped and tortured, they were left facing each other connected to a bar that was chained to something substantial, if you were the other two, after this long story would you hang about anywhere for possessions cars ect ect,.. nope you’d want to disappear within minutes of finding that out,.. and that’s how the world can be,.. brought on by yourself or such a magnitude of reasons,.. seems good until the the piper needs paying ehh,… never herd what happened to the other two,.. they will probably never be found by their own hand or others,..
@@StennMathisor, what if it was GOD’S house?
@@xploration1437 That's just generations of human programming superimposing human elements onto the celestial by way of scribes and religious middlemen (priests through to imans). Why would one without face or form thats everywhere at once yet always nowhere to be seen, need a house???
"people who have no respect for properties"...just like the two blokes in the video? You know that they didn't have a permission to break-in the property, right?
Absolutely incredible!! I just don't understand how anyone could just leave all those beautiful things behind for so many years. The vandalism was heartbreaking and completely senseless 😢
I hope someone claims that beautiful house soon before it is completely destroyed.
Probably someone so much money they dont care and living somewhere else and just using mansion to store their cash because leaving it in a bank just looses buying power but because UK property always seem to go up in value least if its abandoned for many more years the value will still go up and you'll be able to sell for more than you paid for it.
@@ToxCccIf it's abandoned for too long eventually the weather will compromise it and then it will just start falling part to the point that it is listed as condemned.
Once it's condemned it's basically worth less than cleared open land, because you have to pay to demolish the whole thing first to get any use out of it.
@@mnomadvfxoften the land is worth more than the house. Sometimes the council wont allow planning for a new property, and so the owners leave it to fall into a state of disrepair until it inevitably has to be demolished and then the council will grant planning permission for a new house.
Probably 0wned by far Eastern people who got bored by the planes flying nearby, and left it.
Honestly too far gone at this point, it would take more than its worth to bring it back.
Such a beautiful house...it's criminal not to have someone live there ..even if it were a hotel etc. The work in these old houses..the detail and craftsmanship we don't have today.
It's not that old, you can tell from the brickwork. It's essentially a fake, a modern house built in the Jacobean style.
I can imagine that was a beautiful home many years ago, what a shame it’s been vandalised, I can never understand why people feel the need to destroy things it’s such a shame, that could still be a beautiful home it always saddens me to see places like this just going to waste x
Simple explanation. It's great fun to smash crap up. Many urban explorers bust up shit.
Anyway it serves them right for being rich. They thought they were lording it up and ended up getting their shit smashed!
Hello Sarah how are you doing today
@@NelsonAnthony-xs7fd🫤
I'd love to know the history of this place and why it came to be abandoned??
I don't understand how anyone can leave these beautiful buildings to rot.great video xx
It's like this because the cost to maintain it is high. Not only do you need to be wealthy to buy a mansion like this, you have to be wealthy to maintain it. The money ran low in the family and they didn't sell in time when it was beautiful and nice. Then years passed and it got worse. Now it's a demolition job. I'm sure the amount of taxes owed is why it looks like this now!🤔
@@Fast-Burn-Productions-LLCNot to sound daft but why not sell it significantly under market if you’re running extremely low on funds and it’ll go to crap anyway? Surely someone would buy it
Either way it looks as tho they got out of there fast, probably a serious issue
It may be because someone died without a will and there's a legal problem about who owns it now. I'm sure the house would have been cleared of all valuables if there was a legal owner.
@@MinoritySquad my guess is that they probably did decide to sell the house (albeit well after the time when anyone would want to buy it had passed) and now due to the state of the place and the sheer size of it, and the high cost of materials at the moment, nobody wants to take on this project. there could also be issues with the land itself being worth substantially more than the house which sits upon it which would also work against the family trying to sell it.
This place is incredible, I loved the brick on the outside and all the glass. I bet this place was awesome when people lived in it. The sad part is I just don’t understand why people have to damage things.
I'd like to know the story behind how a home like this just gets left to nature to reclaim.
Businessman dies or goes to prison
@@felixhelix6171 thinking some shady “stuff” went down.
Courts and banks…
The story is known as "money laundering."
Happens all the time, for example when an 'untouchable' guy dealing drugs goes to prison, and the government seizes the bank accounts and any money from the sale of the property, (so he and his family cannot profit from crime) or the property is auctioned off by the government, to set an example to other criminals. (Not sure I would want to buy an auctioned home, once owned by a violent gangster and then have to deal with him and his 'friends' when he is eventually released from jail.)
I cannot remember the location but many years ago I was touring the UK and came to a river where there were all types of luxury river boats tied up, some were really old and classically beautiful. The caretaker told me that wealthy people often bought them, used them a few times and then just forgot about them. I wish I could remember where it was, I would like to return.
Thanks for the tour, Alex and Ed. That place was huge. Take care.
What is the complete, true backstory on this home? Family history, records of ownership etc? This info would make this a much better vid and story. Thank You
Totally agree
Wow, amazing house, I think the chimneys are Tudor! These owners were seriously rich. How baffling to just leave valuable cars and antiques behind, it doesn’t make sense…..
That place was unbelievable, like they saying goes , You can't take it with you , but a shame someone can't enjoy it's beauty. Thanks Guys , Great Video. 👍😊
I am a Bricklayer in Australia, great workmanship on that house. Would have cost a fortune. Amazing Vid guys.
Build a wall and stop verstappen,ha ha

Great explore,enjoyed the look through the house,sad these places are left empty and just rot away,lovely porche,the things people leave behind is amazing,isn’t it👍👍👍🇨🇦
Bet it looked really grand once in all its splendour. It had some lovely big rooms and good features. Enjoyed that thanks Alex and Ed xx
It was so fun watching you explore this amazing place, and you were both so respectful. I think it would make a great hotel 🎉
wow another amazing video alex really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing what an amazing place such a shame its another abandoned just sat rotting away, brilliant explore, and love it when yr with eddie xx

Being from the US, I was mildly surprised to see you find an American quarter in the attic of an abandoned British mansion! Of course, though, money from all around the world, can be found where you least expect it! Great explore, guys. Thanks!
Thanks for watching Kerry, glad you enjoyed that tour!
We find so much different currency it's real cool to see, greetings from the UK
You'd find an American quarter if you came to my house. I was in the USA in 1976 and a special quarter was minted for the bicentennial, so I kept it. Most British people have passports and we travel all over the world! I suspect this place was built by someone in the pop music or film industry. Might even have been an American.
So it is strange to you that someone from the uk visit the us and turned back home with change in his pocket? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
High possibility of some from the USA as the area its in has a large amount of Americans living there
These people had money and could travel the world at one point. There's probably things from all continents in there.
Would love to rescue that mini and Porsche , such a waste !
I'm sure someone will 'rescue' them after seeing this video.
OMG!!!! That was simply AMAZING.YET ANOTHER GREAT FIND 😊. GREAT JOB AGAIN GUY'S 👍
Great video yes shame about vandals
You guys are very respectful in what u do good job
I'm afraid we come across vandalism all too often, a real shame!
I'm always amazed how well Ed maneuvers around some of the sketchy surfaces you guys encounter.
The decay is amazing. The decor is so 80s. Fab, loved it x
I'm pretty sure it was the late 80s it was abandoned, but the vandals got to it before us!
@@VacantHaven how come the cars are much newer than when it was supposedly abandoned
Great find, thanks for bringing this to us. I had a bit of a dig online and the previous owner had links to USA and churchy things, which was my inkling with a couple of things you came across. I wish there was more history info about this place.
You're welcome!
It was very hard to find any concrete info in the place, as most of the plans the client end listed as confidential!
But thanks for the info 👍
I really cannot fathom the lay-out of this place, no idea what they were trying to achieve, all those small, oddly shaped rooms created from larger original ones. Seems to me they just made a massive bodge, then it got vandalised, then they abandoned it. But why would you leave a Porsche and all those antiques? Great explore though, as yours always are.❤
When your ex special forces security team says,…get out let’s go,.. we can sort the rest out when we get to safety in another country,… COS IF YOU END UP IN A WODDEN BOX EVERYTHING ELSE OUTSIDE THAT BOX BECOMES IRRELEVANT,.. REGARDLESS HOW NICE AND EXPENSIVE IT IS…..!! smart people believe,..
it seems they faced legal issue with ownership .
The idea of having your own house is great. I bet though it costs too much qnd the government ruined them
Great find guys. Keep exploring and never stop :)
Very entertaining explore ... such a grand property its so sad that people can not go there without leaving graffiti and causing damage ... you guys have respect for the place ... don't know how you didn't get lost in there ... really enjoyed the video & subbed.

Wow. This is a huge house. Look forward to see what you find. Maybe a snooker table?
Yet another brilliant find! Great video guys.😊 👍
This was a really cool explore what a huge house. Thanks for taking us with you much love to you both❤😊
You're welcome Natalie 👍
Absolutely brilliant, thank you for a great explore ❤
what a great find ,you guys are so respectful, keep the videos coming...
Such a shame. The vandalism is horrible. Love the house.
shame for who, you never bought it, why shame ?
If you need it, just buy it, nobody need it, get it now !
shame muhahahahaha
@@lucasrem I was just saying that it is sad that people feel the need to destroy other people's property. You don't need to be so mean. You just lost this subscriber.
I too hope someone restores that beautiful home. Those chimneys are fantastic.
What a huge place might be an extended family home Great Find you guys are amazing finding the stately manors, Great work guys Love the Video ❤
All these new builds and there’s abandoned unloved homes very sad indeed. Lovely content guys❤
Fascinating how humans are compelled to build a bigger nest for themselves than they could ever need. It's all about status, vanity, and showing the world what a 'winner' you are. No-one needs more than a few rooms for sleeping, cooking, relaxing etc. Everything else is a vanity project.
I love 😂❤ in the beginning he touched the knife, your like don’t touch it. He touches it.
New to your channel but I’m enjoying this. Ed’s enthusiasm is great!
And that cane….. WOW!!! That was such a beautiful piece. That cane set needs to be auctioned off so that they can be enjoyed and seen by people. Such a travesty that stuff is just sitting in that garage collecting dust.
I can imagine how beautiful that home was back in the day ❤ it's really sad to see such beauty rot away 😢
Ugly reconstructed in the 1980 days, should have left it original.
The big guy must be poor, easy impressed bij the mention.
Why post it ? What is it ?
What an awesome place!!! Damn shame it’s just sitting empty. Also, good work on the use of Olights!!! Can’t go wrong with using those for any exploration adventure!!
Abandoned place's are so fascinating yet horrifying at the same time. Horrifying because of it's unknown nature and the dark hallways where someone or something is lurking, and fascinating as you want to find out what it was like there, and it's history
places. No apostrophe.
‘Horrifying because of it’s unknown nature’
A house that a family once lived in? Or am I missing something?
It’s amazing. I hope someone fixes it up bc it’s too beautiful to rot away
Hello Alex and Pompeye! This was an amazing place but sectioned off that was really confusing. But an a great explore. 😊❤
First of all it was great to see you and Ed back together 😅. I bet that place was stunning! All the doors tho and bathrooms lol. That find at the end 🤯 I wanted you to go thru all the boxes 😂. Another top notch video guys. Thank you.
Your welcome Julie, by the time we had got to the boxes I was so hot and bothered, I really couldn't stand the heat in there lol apologies!
Heart breaking to see such a beautiful house just left to rot
Watch out for snakes there.
This is a gorgeous location. Ancient too going by those chimneys! Cant wait for this!!
Mind boggling how big this place was!
Hope you enjoy Nanny!
No it's reproduction
Yeah, going by the brickwork style, probably not that old.
My guess would be 1950s.
original property 1930's IMO - cavity brickwork - timber underlay to roof tiles - much later extended and updated
I'd have pulled the tarp back over the mini, but really interesting, nice find!
The lot was shocking just to be left to rot good explore again guys
Yup, shame they beat us to it, would have been really quirky back in the day!
Cheers for watching Peter 👍
Looks like the MOT on the Mini expired 17 Feb 2019 so legally it's been off the road for more than 4.5yrs.
The last MOT only questioned a couple of tyres - I think that cracked windscreen would fail now though ...
What’s the number plate number please ?
I know it’s 57XHD but what’s the first 2 letters?
The first two letters are the easy ones !
Btw, it's not a 'D' ..@@gaz.7770

That whole place was bizzar.😮. But yet so COOL
Thats an awesome find but kind of sad at the same time. I bet that place was amazing when it had people living in it. Shame vandals have trashed it though, That Mirror on the dirty door that was super clean on the other side wa strange, Looks like some one been in there recently.
Great vid guys , fromNZ , in the box of canes there was a carved maori one. Amazing...❤
Thank you really enjoyed your video look forward to next one 👏🤙🏻🙋🏼♀️
Glad you enjoyed Jean thanks for watching 😁👍
Come across your channel last night when I couldn’t sleep , now I’m hooked 😂
Nice explore,loving the videos Alex 👍👍👊.
So beautiful house lots of things for home they leave it so many homeless no house cant afford even little house happy weekend much love
Great explore Alex what a find
Wow what a house, I would need a map to get round, great vid guys xx
VERY COOL! DAMN... the 4S just sitting...
Incredible house. Looks like an original Edward Lutyens designed house crying out to be restored.
Loved that! I was thinking that the apartment in the middle was for the security, the help? Although it is rather large...
I've just started watching your videos and I'm enjoying watching them. Keep up the good work.
Greetings from Johan from the Netherlands
What gets me is how stuff deteriorates when its not lived in .
Lovely Moroccan Tile in that kitchen you were admiring!
What an awesome place that must have been.Shame about the vandalism.
Mate I love watching your videos, only really just found them and binge watched them. Proper exciting. Thanks and take care , all the best from Somerset 👍🏻
This has been a great video love this big old house I would get lost in it thanks for the explore with y'all.
''Abandoned'', my precious heiny!!! If someone were to move in and renovate it, I guarantee... the owners would be down at the front door demanding full return of the keys within a heartbeat!!
Great video and second time i have seen this place, but he did not get in the garage and said at least 5 people had tried to apply for the v5 for the porsche. But if he has gone bankcrupt then the banks own it all and slow to sell on. Shame it has been left to be trashed. Hope the house and cars get saved. Keep up the great work guys.
Mark, that’s very accurate information regarding the cars. do you have a link to this video? Or do you mean second time you have seen this place as in …. You have been?
Great explore. Enjoyed it all.
wow what a crazy find !!!
Wow, what a house ❤
Has a new owner almost two years now, planning permission has gone in several times to demolish the existing property & build multiple houses on the plot, but been refused. Probably due to it's gated community setting. What will probably happen is there will be an accidental fire, damaging the building beyond repair, then, in time, planning permission will go through with no problems... that's what usually happens. Look at what happened to Fyves Court, amongst others.
You never cease to amaze guys. Love seeing your finds.
Thanks for watching Sharon 😁👍
Hello Sharon how are you doing today
Do ye ever look up the history of the buildings? Like who use to live there and how they ended up abandoned?
My first thought upon the opening photos was: this looks like a set off a Gerry Anderson production, maybe U.F.O. or a Thunderbirds movie.
I’m so glad to find your videos I love them. Have you ever been scared by something or ever caught
Looks part in keeping with the Hopswood Manor. Some of the Architecture is quite similar.
Great and interesting content. I like it very much. Thank you.👍👍👍😍😍😍
Your welcome Sharon! Glad you enjoyed 👍👍👍
Crazy to see this over here just empty. That Porsche 997 Carrera Cab would be worth a fair few quid in good condition... What a shame. Both are around 2007/8 so I wonder how long they sat there for. Shame about vandalism, some people are the worst. Well done guys! What a beautifully build house not sure if north or south but would have cost a fortune to build! :-)
Low mileage and well maintained ones only go for around 35k, with high mileage ones going for aboout 20k. That one in that state would probably only fetch 10-15k I'd imagine. No history, no maintenance and sat for years, even 10k would represent be a huge gamble on it!
@@skaterjacksHuge gamble with rads, IMS bearing, clutch etc plus Porsches don’t like being idle. Such a shame!
What a beautiful old house
Thanks for the walkthrough guys!
Not sure if you guys heard it at the time, I had to replay so many times to make sure it was video audio.
35:52 thats defo someone shouting "what ya doing" 😅
Carrera S4 released in 2002, 26 to 100k depending on year…just left there…wow!….those old fireplaces looked like 1920’s craftsman era 👏🏻😎
I can't believe all those pictures/paintings have survived vandalism! It is such a shame seeing such a structure is completely deteriorating going to waste!
I would have to nick that walking stick...before someone else did.Those paintings could be worth a fortune shame they're left to rot.
Certainly a huge building - would be nice to see how it looked originally before being divided into two mansions!
Some nice features and pieces left behind, though not sure why the cars were left outside - surely there was room in a barn for them. That poor Porsche - very sad - it definitely needs rescuing!
Great video 👍
It's still got a real 80s vibe, so I'd imagine ot was quite funky in its hey day!
Glad you enjoyed the tour Trish 😁👍
@@VacantHaven Given the age of the vehicle is 2007 -- you didn't blur it at the beginning -- I'm guessing they either died suddenly or ran away due to the 2008 financial crash.
Like the Porsche.
@@KeithChegwin24 it was due to covid
@@KeithChegwin24 I got the full reg. The minis mot expired in Feb 2019. The house has surety been abandoned for longer than 4 years though, weird.
I remember parking my Porche but I just can't remember where 🤷♂️ now I know, thanks guys 👍
Wow very amazing. There was millionare who went bankrupt in a town near me way back in the late 80's Home was in the mountains worth 10's of millions of dollars and was very beautiful. The bank that owned the property paid a care taker to live in the property in one of the guest homes on the property for more than 10 years to take care of the home and property until they were able to sell the property to another millionare. Sad this property couldn't of been kept in good condition until someone else could buy it.
This is breathtaking.
Whenever I watch your videos I always feel like your the reason Tresspassing is a crime. You 2 dont leave anything not gone through. The older guy is constantly pointing out things he thinks looks valuable. I sure hope you dont take things from any of these places you explore. Abandoned or not, nothing you see or find means its free to take.Its just really obvious your friend is looking for things he finds might be valuable, instead of stepping into the past and appreciating the story behind what became of the people who once occupied these places or what happened that caused time to stand still forever.
Seems like a weird mishmash of lime lines. Built in the forties with very random things updated in the early 90’s . Someone went through a lot of trouble to neatly run exposed wire to temporary lights in every single room and abandoned cars from the 2000’s although it seems like it was abandoned long before that.
I loved this place, it's so sad to see a beautiful place left to Rot, it upsets me so many of these places just left and then the Vandles get to Work trashing the place. Will someone do it up ? The land that goes with it, and those cars! Ppl with Money can just move on and leave such beautiful stuff behind.
Looking at it I'd say it'll be demolished, the amount of work needed on it would cost a fortune.
Yes came across this building 5years ago, whilst i was visiting family in Derbyshire. How the rich fall 😪
Well, I though it was a house down South...
