An absolute pleasure to watch this video. It brings the house to life in a way that pictures cannot. When I saw Freddie’s baseball shoes, my heart skipped a beat and I felt a profound sense of loss although I obviously didn’t know Freddie on a personal level. I fully understand why Mary sold his “clutter”(his words)and is now selling his(or should I say HER ) house. She faithfully kept it for over thirty years, and it is now time to move on. Good luck to her and best wishes.
Какое невыносимое чувство потери … сердце болит от сознания того, что вот там - сидел Фредди, бегали его обожаемые кошки, всего касались его руки, тепло его тела согревало все вокруг … Вещи Фредди, его кроссовки … весь дом😢😢❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much Sound and Vision for showing us very beautiful and unique items that Freddie had collected throughout his lifetime.

Freddie Mercury created a musical oeuvre. Special, unique music. Freddie Mercury's music, the music of beauty and freedom, eternal. Above all, Freddie Mercury was a versatile talent Virtuoso pianist, composer, choreographer, fantastic connoisseur. He had impeccable taste, he brought value to everything. If you don't understand that, don't try to express an opinion@@ianwhitehead691
Thank you for posting this beautiful video that Sotheby's did when they were chosen to handle the sell Freddie's things. I only wished they hadn't put a filter on the lens to make it old-looking. Garden Lodge is as beautiful today as I'm sure it was during FM's life so why not celebrate all the colors of the magnificent items he hand-picked to decorate his home? He had exquisite expensive tastes, that's for sure! I know from pictures I've seen of an article that Mary did not long after he died, she was standing by the piano and it was full of pictures. Not sure if they were pictures she had placed there specifically for the pictures in the article or if they were put there by Freddie, but I noticed they were no longer there in any of the Sotheby's photographs.
È dolorosissimo vedere tutto questo e sapere che non c'è più nulla che adesso La sua stupenda casa è solo in guscio vuoto quattro mura senza più anima mi si spezza il cuore.Comunque sia andata Sei sempre nel mio cuore Forever Freddie Freddie love of mi Life 🥇👑🥇👑🥇👑🥇♥️💕❤️💖💓💝💘💞💞💞💋💋💋💋💋💋💔💔💔
Perché non ne hanno un museo! Ovviamente con tutte le precauzioni possibil. un luogo da visitare con tutto il rispetto per il grande freddy.avrei preferito questo che vedere la sua casa vuota.non capisco questa scelta che è per pochi fortunati .mi dispiace tanto ❤
Видимо, стало тяжело содержать этот дом, вот и начали распродавать вещи. Жаль!Но Фредди все это оставил Мэри , по доброй воле и она вольна распоряжаться имуществом, как захочет.
@@zv8561 Thank you, yes! Freddie had no "younger generation" to bequeath his house and furnishings to. He had Mary, his sister, his parents, his boyfriend (deceased since Jan 1, 2010), and his 3 helpers at his home. He left all of them $$$$. Mary's 2 sons don't automatically get Garden Lodge; they probably didn't want it; they're now in their 30s and on their own.
Freddie Mercury è uno dei pochi che avrei voluto incontrare,unico, libero e mai ipocrita oltre ad essere una leggenda del rock. Confido di incontrarlo in mondo parallelo,nel frattempo continuerò ad ascoltarlo da sempre e per sempre.❤
I feel honored and grateful to own some of Freddie's items. I admire them every morning when I turn the light on in the showcase and say "good morning"!
Che peccato non avere più queste bellissimi oggetti e la sua bella casa che ora è vuota se c'era un po' di buona volontà si poteva fare un bel museo come per gli oggetti appartenuti a David Bovie purtroppo ci ritroviamo così con mio immenso dispiacere. 3:42 😢😮😢❤
Yeah, it should of become a museum for all the world to see and mark his legacy, no one has bought it and if it does sell eventually, hope they do the right thing and turn it into one*
Твою мать!!! Горгона мэри все продала !!!! Зачем он оставил этот дом ей !!!???? Тут должен быть его музей !!!! А она все жрет и жрет его деньги. Все вещи это память , наша память !!!!
I wish they had filmed his bedroom and bathroom too. I am also trying to figure out where the staircase that goes up to his bedroom is located. It looks like when you walk into that main door that to the immediate left is the door to the Japanese room, no staircase to go upstairs. I see the dark staircase that leads to the minstrel gallery.
When you enter, the staircase is straight ahead. It takes you to the second floor and then a short flight of stairs to the bedroom which is over the main large room.
This is precious! As crowded with 'stuff' as any Edwardian parlour, and very much reflective of 1980s opulence too. I can't help but think that were he still with us, Freddie would quite likely have embraced minimalism by now and thrown the whole lot out! As it is, a snapshot of a decade or so in Freddie's life, or at least, of the environment in which much of it was lived..
Opulence and excess of the 80s? I thought 8os were about post-modern lofts of brick and chrome. This house is classic and timeless, in my humble opinion. Freddie was minimalist in dresses, that’s true. No accessories like wristwatch, jewellery, ties, scarfs, etc. It very well may be that he would have sold out much of his stuff by now anyway.
Mientras miraba el video, EL MUNDO DE FREDDIE, la MUSICA, sus TESOROS no podia dejar de llorar... Imagine los momentos que el vivio rodeado de "cosas explendias y regias" como el decia, intente recordar su voz tan profunda, su risa contagiosa, sus gestos, sus amados gatos caminando entre tanta belleza y pense en Mary caminando y despidiendose de todo lo que fue para ella AMOR como lo dijo. Y me di cuenta que es verdad las cosas materiales deben continuar "su viaje" lo VERDADERO QUEDA PARA SIEMPRE Y EL AMOR DE FREDDIE HACIA MARY NO EMPRENDIO NI EMPRENDERA NINGUN VIAJE PORQUE ESTA POR SIEMPRE EN SU CORAZON ❤❤😢😢❤
Очень было приятно очутиться в мире Фредди, который он так тщательно и с любовью создавал, понятно, что за все эти годы что то должно было измениться н6аверное (непонятно, когда эта сьемка была произведена). Упаси Боже, Мэри Остин собирается пустить в продажу дом, на недавнем аукционе и так многое ушло по разным рукам, жаль...
It’s a lovely home. The taste in antique furniture. And antique vases. Paintings were really lovely. I’d say there were stairs going up to each bedroom. Other rooms in the house. Just didn’t get shown in the ld say was a short film. I apologise for the length of this comment. 😮😊😊❤❤❤❤
Una casa preciosa y decorada con mucho gusto. Todo elegido por Freddy, que pena que la disfrutará tan poco. Siempre se van los mejores, antes de tiempo.
It immediately made me calm about his death as he was given to admire the charm of that place and find here his place. Also i began to understand why he has chosen to die in that place instead of abywhere else
I hope the house doesn't go to some billionaire or oligarch, but somebody who will cherish it and cherished Freddie. Maybe Elton John could buy it and open it up as a museum and raise money for AIDS charities.
As much as I'd love to have a look around Garden Lodge, the decor certainly doesn't strike me as "home comforts". It's a beautiful looking place but you can't imagine anyone kicking back in their sweats and watching Netflix?!
Freddie's been gone for 33 yrs, and during that time the house was kept as he decorated it. Freddie left it to Mary to do with as she pleased; there was no requirement she turn the house into a museum and retain all his belongings. If Freddie had wanted a museum, he could have specifiied it in his will. He made no such arrangements. The house all alone like it is, feels lonely. I don't believe Mary had lived there for several years; her sons are all grown up & have their own lives. It must have felt sad for Mary, being in that house with only memories left, during the years she did reside at Garden Lodge.
Feel for her. ??..she knew exactly what she was doing just like all gold diggers now shes not got freds money anymore she sells it even everything that freddie bought .shes a snake 🤬
@@jamesmcguire1608 She retained the house & gardens for over 3 decades. During that time the house was left exactly as Freddie decorated it. Mary's an older woman now, in her late 70s, sons grown. It was up to her to decide what to do. Freddie could have put in his will his house was to become a museum and all furnishings were to be left in the house, forevermore, but he didn't; he gave the house and half his estate to Mary to do with as she wanted. It's not like she immediately got rid of all his stuff & sold the house. 30+ years is a long time before deciding it's time to sell to a new owner.
@@crimson25543yes. I think she did do all she could to hang onto it for so many years. I’m sure she feels she’s able to let go if it now and have a quieter simpler life. Over time you grieve and you see that no matter how many years you hang onto someone’s beloved possessions, it can never bring them back again. In the immediate wake of someone’s passing I think having their things brings quite a bit of comfort and makes you feel closer to the to them but over time you realize how little those things mean once you accept that they’re gone. Mary was a great friend to Freddie. He really loved her.
That was my thought. It would be nice if there was some kind of essence of the person left behind on their belongings. But, that’s not how it is. When they’re gone, they’re gone. They just leave behind empty stuff. I have perfume that my best friend who died used to wear. Still to this day when I smell it, it’s like she’s right there. But more so, It just leaves this feeling of longing that they were here. I really hope there’s an afterlife. Because this is some bs.
If only that house could talk 😮 I don't think Mary would have kept all of his antiques there with children in the house. I read somewhere that she had it packed up and put in storage.
She had two little boys and I agree with you that Garden Lodge most likely wasn't kid friendly. I wonder if Mary lived there at all. She loved the flat Freddie bought for her after they parted and it seemed far more suited to her lifestyle.
@@debra2700 I think I did read or hear somewhere that she did actually continue to live in The Mews which, if I understood correctly, was part of the property. But don't rely on that! - I may well have misunderstood, or be misremembering...
@@papercup2517 I believe I've read that as well and it makes complete sense. I raised two children and the beautiful items in Garden Lodge wouldn't have stood a chance with my two around! I do hope Mary is well and happy and just decided to sell Freddie's items simply because it was time to do so and not because she's unwell. She's devoted herself to Freddie since she was 19 years old.
@@debra2700 Oh, I do hope so too. I vaguely think I heard she wasn't well, but again, unsure where I heard it or how reliable my memory might be on it. I did ask someone that knew her, and they were not forthcoming with information, quite understandably. I met her once, back in '73, along with F and Roger at their Kensington Market stall. Roger - ever the self-promoter/ chat-up artist! - was telling me all about their wonderful band. (They had F's original artwork for the Queen Crest pinned to the wall, and not knowing what is was I'd asked about the symbolism of it, and tried to buy it!). But I do remember being particularly struck by how supportive Mary was, at that point when the band was still relatively unknown. With their first album finally completed and due for release in two weeks time it was clear they truly believed they were destined for great things, and it seemed to me M felt very much a part of that journey, fully behind the boys, as if it were a joint project. I think that Victorian portrait ("A Kind of Beauty"??) shown right at the beginning of this video looks so much like Mary; I'd love to know if F thought so too and whether that's why he bought it!
@@papercup2517 How thrilling to have met them! All of the lovely things you said is why I get so upset when Jim Hutton that Johnny Come Lately gets so much credit for being the person who finally made Freddie happy. Mary loved and financially supported Freddie Bulsara so he could pursue his dream and stayed with him through thick and thin as Freddie stated but to so many fans it was Jim who showed up a handful of years before a very wealthy and famous Freddie Mercury's death who gets credit while Mary is maligned because of all of the lies Jim told about her. I'm so glad that Freddie left her everything and trusted her with his ashes. I'm so jealous that you got to see them together and I agree, Freddie would have seen his lovely Mary in that portrait.
Wonder how much the decor might have changed if Freddie had lived. he may have wanted to go more modern and have lots of grey which seems to be a popular colour these days.
Because it (the house and everything in it) belonged to her after Freddie's death. Freddie bequeathed half his estate + his house + all the furnishings to Mary. She kept everything intact for over 30 years! She's in her 70s now, this was obviously the right time for her to sell and let a new owner enjoy the estate.
Fakt nieprzekazania przez Mary do muzeum rzeczy Freddiego związanych z jego twórczością i zespołem Queen, świadczy niestety o jej pazerności. To co zrobiła jest potwierdzeniem tego jak ją postrzegano, o czym można się dowiedzieć między innymi z książki M. Richardsa i M. Langthorna "Somebody to love" a także z książki autorstwa Jimmiego Huttona (Jim w opisach był elokwenty).
She's now in her 70s so she more than met the requirements. Estates of deceased entertainers get sold all the time (Michael Jackson, Merv Griffin, Whitney Houston, etc), sometimes right after a death, and fans don't throw tantrums over it. But in this case...there's a level of entitlement not seen elsewhere. Fans could have chosen to purchase the house and all the things in the house had they come up with the $$$$$$$ and made a deal with Mary to buy it all. Then they (fans) could have turned G.L. into a museum if that's what they wanted.

With their first album finally completed and due for release in two weeks time it was clear they truly believed they were destined for great things, and it seemed to me M felt very much a part of that journey, fully behind the boys, as if it were a joint project.
I think that Victorian portrait ("A Kind of Beauty"??) shown right at the beginning of this video looks so much like Mary; I'd love to know if F thought so too and whether that's why he bought it!
@@papercup2517 How thrilling to have met them! All of the lovely things you said is why I get so upset when Jim Hutton that Johnny Come Lately gets so much credit for being the person who finally made Freddie happy. Mary loved and financially supported Freddie Bulsara so he could pursue his dream and stayed with him through thick and thin as Freddie stated but to so many fans it was Jim who showed up a handful of years before a very wealthy and famous Freddie Mercury's death who gets credit while Mary is maligned because of all of the lies Jim told about her. I'm so glad that Freddie left her everything and trusted her with his ashes. I'm so jealous that you got to see them together and I agree, Freddie would have seen his lovely Mary in that portrait.
Wonder how much the decor might have changed if Freddie had lived. he may have wanted to go more modern and have lots of grey which seems to be a popular colour these days.
Все уже продано, и дом тоже...
Quite a library for someone who thought reading books was a waste of time.
Мэри все его аещи рапродает. По миру пустила Фредди 😢
I can't believe Mary sold everthing why why 💔💔😭😭😭
Because it (the house and everything in it) belonged to her after Freddie's death. Freddie bequeathed half his estate + his house + all the furnishings to Mary. She kept everything intact for over 30 years! She's in her 70s now, this was obviously the right time for her to sell and let a new owner enjoy the estate.
Mi piacerebbe entrare per vedere di persona la sua casa
To bad Mary didn't make it into a museum.
I gatti❤❤❤❤
Ya esa casa estaba sin vida sin el
Mary's Garden Lodge.
Fakt nieprzekazania przez Mary do muzeum rzeczy Freddiego związanych z jego twórczością i zespołem Queen, świadczy niestety o jej pazerności. To co zrobiła jest potwierdzeniem tego jak ją postrzegano, o czym można się dowiedzieć między innymi z książki M. Richardsa i M. Langthorna "Somebody to love" a także z książki autorstwa Jimmiego Huttona (Jim w opisach był elokwenty).
Please inform me what taxes must be paid annually for the maintenance of this house?
Не понимаю как Мери могла всё продать да и дом уже на продажу. Грустно очень
Freddie had beautiful home and good taste for beautiful things. Why buy something that doesn't bring you joy.
😢😢
Is all these things out of the house now and auctioned. And where is Mary living thus place must empty
Mary hasn't lived at Garden Lodge for many years. She lived nearby in a smaller place, don't know if she's still near there or not.
Y quién permitiría ese recorrido si Mary Austin siempre ha sido egoísta?
Alguien sabe porque se vende la casa de freddie..??
Very missed.
Could somebody identify fredddie's shoes please?
These are Adidas boxing shoes.
Такой дом разорили!!!! Это ужасно!!!!!
It’s sad she sold everything by now
Was he indian or persian ???
The Zoroastrian Parsi's origins were in Persia, though they have resided in India for centuries Parsis consider themselves to be Persian. 😊
Now all sold. Sad.
why did Mary sell all those wonderful precious things???????🤨😒🙄
Smutné
Le testament stipulé a marie quelle ne pouvait vendre quoi que se soit avent 50 ans
She's now in her 70s so she more than met the requirements. Estates of deceased entertainers get sold all the time (Michael Jackson, Merv Griffin, Whitney Houston, etc), sometimes right after a death, and fans don't throw tantrums over it. But in this case...there's a level of entitlement not seen elsewhere. Fans could have chosen to purchase the house and all the things in the house had they come up with the $$$$$$$ and made a deal with Mary to buy it all. Then they (fans) could have turned G.L. into a museum if that's what they wanted.
Not my style feels kinda creepy lol
