ABANDONED $6,600,000 Florida Beach Mansion | Left Behind After Storm
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2024
- Have you ever dreamed of owning a house on the beach? For some people that dream became reality. And for some that reality was stripped away. While driving through the beach towns of northern Florida I stumbled upon a beach house that seemed to be abandoned for quite sometime. The people that used to own this little piece of paradise were both lawyers who had this home as a vacation house. But sometime around 2014 the house was hit by a tropical storm causing severe water damage and structural damage to the house. The couple both ended up passing away just a few years after the storm and the house was completely left abandoned with their furniture still left behind. Now it seems that there might be plans of demolition for a newer bigger beach house. So join me today and let’s see what’s left.

We're living in Barbados for a few months, and there are so many abandoned or unfinished homes. You wonder what the story is behind them? It looks like many people have big plans but run out of money before they get the roof on!
The problem for a lot of people is they have no construction skills themselves and labour is expensive! Few people now want to go into manual trades as it is hard physical work. So those that do can make good money.
Anyway, great documenting, enjoying your newly discovered channel 😊
Big banks, you should always, always have a companion with you, at the very least, for security.
We lived on the beach, from 2009 until 2010, and my asthma never returned.
Best place that I have always loved... anywhere salt water is.
Beautiful home... thank You 🌅💖🌅
Beautiful home thanks for the explore loved that black bathroom
I’m in Missouri now. Lived in Florida for 16 years. Loved it. Love to see homes from there. Makes me want to go back. Would love to see more from Florida.
That’s beach energy :). All positive ions coming off the water. I’m sure it’s why most are drawn to live close by.
This house has a very 90s aesthetic. I almost thought the kitchen would be full of sunflowers 🌻
I really liked how this beach house was light and airy,I bet it was a beautiful house before that storm struck the area ❤
Such a pity this place is abandoned.. it's got a spectacular ocean view😍
that iridescent blue!!!!! I wanted to paint the Caribbean Ocean on my Master Bath Ceiling. Took me at least 15 "ocean" colors. Then the accidental mix of glaze and pearlized white paint to Sponge on the ceiling. I live in the Pacific Northwest. LOVE my feelings of the Caribbean!!! PAINT MAGIC IS........EVERYTHING!!!!!!
Gotta love it, Abandoned houses with appliances newer than what I got, LOL
Oh, stop it. 😂😂😂😂😊
None of the appliances matched
@@twistedtypos2029 I got a kenmore set from like 1983, 😂 the last set was Maytags from 1978
What’s up Big Bankz? Was in a motorcycle accident couple months ago, hit & run. Pretty much Bedridden. Been binge watching all your vids. Appreciate you & wish you all the best brother. God Bless…🙏🏻
Hey there. I'm sorry bout your accident. I hope you get better. I am stuck with oxygen due to pneumonia, but at least I got out the hospital. Being injured or sick is hard, but I wish you comfort and health. ❤
@@CaseyAvalon Wishing you a speedy recovery & all the best. Appreciate you reaching out. God Bless
So sorry for you both. Hope you heal completely
@@JayBougie thank you very much. It's been such a slow process. And I feel so weak and tired. I wish you the best. 🙂
@@sandranelson5979 Thank you Sandra, was on my motorcycle & a pickup truck went thru the intersection & nailed me. Almost avoided it. No Road Rash or bruising, no broken ribs or paralysis or death. So all in all feel extremely lucky to just have the broken leg. Completing physical therapy & resting. Seeing it as a staycation at home & happy to be here. Really enjoying Big Bankz house tours. Very interesting & entertaining to watch. Grateful for them…
Love these videos but today, I’m in deep mourning as I just lost my aunt who was like my mother this week. But this reminded me of her because she and my uncle had a place in northern FL. Pajama city beach, actually. We used to go every summer until they sold it serveral years back. Also the Bible verse in the beginning, I found some comfort in seeing this today. Thank you for showing it and you are also so kind and respectful of the properties you show. ❤
❤❤
Panama Beach is lovely...
Another Beautiful Home what an Amazing Sight to See and Hear every morning I would live there ny Babies will be on the Beach every day morning till night and camping on the beach Beautiful Big Bankz Thanks Again
I'm in England so used to gloomy weather, I love it too 😊. Interesting video, must have been lovely there when it was lived in through summer ❤️
I’m in England too and like you say we are very used to gloomy weather. The abandoned properties in the US are a lot more interesting than ours in the UK as we just seem to tear down the beautiful properties to make way for supposed affordable housing estates
What a great video. Oceans reminds me of the power and such beauty our Lord Jesus Christ Created..
That view! How beautiful. The house from the outside looked nice but it seemed that the stairs were just so cheaply made and put together. Thanks for sharing your find😊
I love a good rainy day…I feel like I can get so much accomplished inside on days like that.
The floor tile is called travateen.
Yes travertine
Nothing better on a lovely gloomy day than sinking into my comfortable chair in the library to snuggle down with a good book, a cup of tea, and some vinyls playing. If it is also a cold day add a fire in my fireplace hearing the waves break. Perfection. If my husband is also having a lazy day we might play gin, backgammon, chess, work on a puzzle or just read together occasionally sharing a bit of what we read that we hadn’t previously realized, that moved us, or especially that made us laugh.
This house not very plush so it may have been a weekend place for family and a rental combined. Furniture left and pictures very casual and low end. Which makes sense for light family use and rental. The lot is more valuable than the house!??
The back of the house with the ocean view is so beautiful. And I also love gloomy days, but however, the house look like it’s so cheaply made. It’s beautiful, but I feel like they could’ve put more into it. Condolences to the ones who live there and their family. But I also think that major renovations are needed to be done on this house.
I Was Going Too Say Please Close All Doors & Windows Too Be Respectable Of The Property😊I Would Just Too Do The Right Thing❤
If an earth cam was installed, facing the beach and uploaded to youtube.. well,, that's all i would be watching! Thank you so much for the video!
Normally I’m for saving homes but in this case, if I was wealthy, I would purchase the lot at the going rate for beach property in that area. It is a nice location, then forgive me greeners, that entire home is going into a landfill as I have it torn down to build my new home. Even if it didn’t have structural damage, it’s full of mold, plus this house appears so low-end…cheap cabinets, floors, doors, bathrooms, that I wouldn’t have been impressed to see it prior to the storm damage…6 million dollars now, what was it priced to be worth before the storm.
Such a dream come true! Next to the ocean like that....wow,❤
What a shame for this lovely house. Too bad. Love the bathrooms, really cool. That back deck looked pretty sketchy, watch your step. Great explore Bankz and thank you.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's so sad when people who have passed on and doesn't have family members to carry on their estates it's tragic and heart sore. I'm following literally everything on ur channel and the homes u show and the respect u show each home omg tells me how much u respect every mansion left abandoned 😢
Thanks for the tour Bankz. I know I sure would take this "ugly" house just to live next to the ocean. Always dreamed of living on the water. Maybe one day 🙏🤞
I think I heard you say in the beginning that this is/was a beautiful mansion, I’m shocked, you usually have better taste. The black bathroom was the only thing I saw that wasn’t a cheap, cookie cutter plain large house. No wonder they didn’t repair it after it was damaged. It reminds me of a bad timeshare place. Build it cheap with no personality, just plain bare essentials. Maybe it was built so that family or friends could come and stay on the beach for a few days at time. I’m not sure why I said so much but anyway…. Thanks for the video, you can’t win them all.
Yeah, black tile has a tendency to look really messy if you don't tend to EVERY. LITTLE. DROPLET/RUN OF WATER. It is pretty, but a real pain to keep looking nice every day.
Omg, yes. We rented a house with black tile and I have dogs that shed all the time. The tile always looks like crap.
Great view and ocean sounds is amazing.
Is that black mold.? It looks like a Beach house on a budget. A very tight one as well.
HEY BIG BANKZ,
MY FAVORITE IS THE OCEAN VIEW,
GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
STAY SAFE AND WELL GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ❤❤💯💯🩵🩵
Red Solo Cup!!!❤ i lift you up!!! REST WITH JESUS TOBY!!! FLY HIGH COWBOY❤
Who
Nice video, although not my style whatsoever. It's unfortunate it was left to deteriorate. But some other rich people will rebuild and enjoy that perfect ocean view. One thing I will never understand is why explorers leave doors and windows open? When all that needs to be done, if remotely possible, is to close them. That protects birds from going inside, then becoming trapped, which ultimately becomes their death sentence. Plus, why allow the home to deteriorate more rapidly due to being opened up to the elements? I wish the majority of explorers wouldn't just observe opened doors and / or windows, but I wish they'd close them if it is a possibility to do so. I do know of a few who do take the initiative to close opened doors and windows to protect it and the creatures. Protect our wildlife!
Hey man, thank you for these videos they're a much needed change up in my queue. Oh and it's good to know I'm not the only one who appreciates grey days. God Bless.
24:43 LOL that’s like a sea sponge
The natural sunlight is beautiful ☀️ I feel like eventually the elements will take over which sucks
Well was obviously built cheaply, even in area it was more summer place . Storms did most of damage an neglect. Vandals weren't interested evidently. Even if it's going to be demolished is there any harm in closing windows or doors,?
Have to say very nice to be able to have a place on the beach ..get up and enjoy!! Thank you for sharing with us as it will just be a part of history soon ...
Scary all alone but Iim glad you feel comfortable Be safe always.Beautiful find!
This home screams super cheaply built. Amazing that someone would attempt to build a major home so cheaply. Even the closet door are the cheapest available
I love to see more beach houses. I am from northgermany.
Beautiful!!! Sad that this property was left unattended for so long! Thank you for sharing this wonderful adventure! I loved it 👍🙏💕
I remember when that house was built. So sad to see how it looks today. 😢
Do you know the back story with Susan and Brother? I get so intrigued with the history!
Thank you for sharing. I always appreciate the fact that you know the history. You always do amazing explores.❤
When using unsteady stairs always walk at the edge as its the strongest point. Not the middle 😊
The thing I love most about big banKZ videos are the beginning, the narration be 💯
Absolutely 1 of your best videos ever !!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Looks like it was built to be an air bnb.
From the outside, that home looks wonderful but the inside….the artwork, the pastel colors of the bed linens and just the design of the bathrooms, all so random. It screams 1980’s vibes in a way (just my opinion). Compared to my home everything else is a mansion! Hehe. 😊
Watching from Colorado! Thanks for this weeks vid BigBankz! Stay well
This house was designed to be an illusion. Grand from the outside, but cheaply built on the inside. The kitchen is horrible considering everything.
@@gregorylyon1004 excellent point ...half to agree...😮.....thankfully they loved it...
Thats a tear down...no doubt!. I bet whoever buys that lot, buys the one to the left also!
I love Watching you going through all the homes
Lol the sponge incident 😅
That was funny.
Enjoying all your videos....❤
Love listening to you in your videos BigBankz ❤❤❤
A gloomy day is just the rear of a sunny beautiful day! 😊
Thanks for sharing. Such a beautiful location ❤
Thank you Big Bankz for taking all us along with you ,on this awesome house adventure
I enjoy all your explores. Thank you!
I love it. We're 15 miles from Galveston so I do beach a lot. I would LOVE to have a beach house (one story or an elevator) but they do have a LOT of upkeep. Heck, we get water and it's so far from the pretty beaches. I would have a cinderblock house with storm windows if I lived down there, the hurricanes are really heck on the wood and stucco, the damp just works on it all the time, much less the wind and rains.
What a beautiful sight and sound to wake up to each morning and fall asleep to each night. It’s a shame. But awesome video Bankz. You were making me nervous walking on that wood. lol
Watching from Pa what a beautiful home. My favorite part is the ocean view and that black bathroom. Really enjoyed it. Have a great day.
I’m glad you admitted you’re scared sometimes. I would be scared thinking someone would be squatting in some of these abandoned properties.
I loved watching the waves outside. 😊 The black tub was not jetted, making it a soaking tub.
I loved that black bathroom also it was amazing. And yes that was a huge sea sponge in that bowl by the tub.
What a beautiful house! I wouldlove to see more beach homes!
I loved the video, but that music that you had playing in this video was awesome. I could listen to that all day.
OMG ! This house could have been my dream fixer-upper. I just would not be able to pay the taxes. LOL
What a beautiful beach! 😊
Love it! Thanks bb!
Thanks for the tour, BigBankz. Pretty cool by the majestic ocean. 🌊 - I do think the place is kind of cold looking though, no personality. Nothing compared to many of the places you've been through but still pretty cool video. 😎✌️
This house is so cheaply built .Just look at the plain cheap box plain . The builder uses the cheapest crap he could find. The storm didn't damage the house the builder did.
Everything is built cheap nowadays
While it does seem more like a budget build, the builder doesn't make the budget. They work within the budget.
I'm surprised it's badly built
From the outside, I was expecting something breathtaking or glamorous inside but not so much.
A dollar doesn't buy what it use to!
Love the content as always,wish I had that view.❤ from Leeds,England.
Great house. Great video. ❤🙏👍
Watching you from Stillwater - thanks for the interesting videos 👏
Very cool. The outside doesn’t seem to match the inside. It’s was very 1980s, because I had those bendable rollers in high school. Everything looked neat, but the staircase railing is weird. Your voice is very calming & I enjoyed watching while trying to sleep. New sub here. 😻👍🍀
STUNNINGLY beautiful location! Wonderful home before it went to decay ---- sooo sad. I'm curious if there is a garage? LOL a real ocean sponge. Oh wow crazy, I'd really want a toilet IN my bathroom! Glad you found it and shared it!
A beautiful house
So terrible it was left to decay
Thanks for sharing video
From West Virginia
Take care and see in next video
❤❤❤❤

Definately LOVE LOVE LOVE BEACH HOMES RIGHT ON THE OCEAN>>>SHOW MORE MORE MORE OF THEM PLEASE!!
They’re so breathtaking but one nasty storm can take them from a dream home to a nightmare in seconds.
Thank you great video
This place is so beautiful.
BigBankz, that is a body sponge, a natural one.
love the beach theme.....what a shame... thanks!
Love the drone work.
“Looks like a squatter, because there are 2 pillows here on the bed”
Sorry that just made me crack up.
Along with calling a body sponge fungus 😂😅😂
Wow unbelievable
You are Gothic BigBankz!
