    This mansion was the home of Marcel and his beloved wife Petra. Marcel was originally from the city of Zurich, Switzerland where he grew up and later took over the family business of producing zinc, a highly successful company that operated out of China.
    Aside from his career, Marcel was passionate about two things- his family, and the restoration of historical buildings. In fact, at the age of 50, he decided to fulfill his lifelong dream of moving out of the city and into the peaceful countryside of France… but under the condition that he find a historical manor that needed desperate renovation to restore it to its former glory. He did just that
    He found 17th century mansion perched upon a hill just on the outskirts of a small, peaceful French village and he created a masterpiece from the bear bones the mansion had been for many years. After the work was completed, he started a new life with his family here and so began the next chapter of his life.
    Eventually, his children all grew up and moved away to other parts of the world and so Marcel and Petra lived out their years in the home until 2010, when Petra was diagnosed with cancer and died the following year. Marcel, also battling his own health problems was now unable to walk and barley able to take care of himself.
    Losing his beloved wife proved to be too much for Marcel. Battling his own set of health issues from his old age, he was now unable to walk and barley able to take care of himself, let alone deal with the loneliness that haunted him.
    Surrounded by the walls he'd built for his family, they'd become hellacious reminders of the love, the joy, and the life that was once here but is now gone with the passing of time.
    Not long after his wife's death, in 2013, Marcel died, alone in his house. One can only speculate he grieved himself to death.
    Sadly, even though his children were to inherit the property, they've all been in a legal battle with each other for nearly a decade, unable to reach an agreement on how to divide the estate. Meanwhile, the once marvelous masterpiece their father had created now sits completely abandoned and decaying with every year that passes.
    So come with me on this exploration and let's have a look at what's left inside of Marcel's home.

      oh bugger! I somehow lost my comment, midway!!
      Here's attempt #2. I can write with ease as i'm doing it fr my laptop. There's no way I could EVER type this from a phone. 🤫
      I know from your past comments, you warmly invite your subscribers to share thoughts & ask questions, so I feel comfortable doing so.
      wow. This little chateau is a treat!
      The deep pink tufted-velvet, curved bed head & footboard was stunningly beautiful & French. I have seen similar antique ones priced at $4500 US dollars.
      I'd take that bed and the pink bedcovering and the large oval framed floral and be happy!
      I'd also want the velvet chairs from the red room & maybe do them in a pretty lavender-blue if the red clashed.
      All the velvets on the other beds & chairs colors were equally beautiful.
      However, the one wallpaper leaving me dumbstruck was the one w/ the peacock/floral motif. (insert bug-eye emoji) in the red room.
      Could you (or anyone else) tell if the pieces falling down were paper or fabric?
      I'd take that pink velvet bed & bed cover, have it all professionally deep cleaned & then I'd do my walls in the peacock floral!! Happy camper!
      That blue and white wallpaper with small repeated pastoral scenes was a quintessentially French design called Toile de Jouy, sounded out twall de jwee.
      It comes in amazing different motifs, different colors.
      The scenes usually convey a theme depicting subjects: the 4 seasons, french country/pastoral life, hunting, etc.
      Do a google search of Toile de Jouy & click (google) "images" and you will see the infinite variety. It's still a well-loved design motif and manufactured today in wall papers & fabrics for home decor, clothing & accessories.
      The framed lady you asked about looks to be a type of needlepoint called
      petit-point (sounds like petty point) embroidery. It was a tradition for young French girls to learn this skill and continue with it into later years. They would needlepoint portraits, chair covers, framed pieces for the wall, table-top fireplace screens to protect the face, even floor rugs.
      It was sad the way the owner's dream restoration is being lost to the elements.
      Jeremy, There is something I want to send you which will be of immeasurable value to your work. How can we arrange this?
      Thank you for another thoughtful explore!!

      They didn't become that way in a vacuum. No idea what the problem is but parents have something to do with who their adult children become. Something as simple as too much focus on the house and not enough on the kids seems like it could prompt people to fight over the thing that was more valuable than they were. It's gorgeous, and clearly it came at a price.

We were brought up into a very unhealthy lifestyle it still hurts to remember trying to be a kid and growing up at the same time. Some parents hold very deep secret till they die that only the surviving kids can testify about it or choose to remain quiet. My best bet they choose to stay quiet cause remembering bring so much pain. But to each their own.

    I don’t know how many children the owner had but if they could have all pitched in, they could have saved this lovely home and perhaps lived in it as one large family. There certainly would have been enough bedrooms and living spaces to accommodate many people.

    What a gorgeous home. I remember two local sisters who refused to compromise on the price of their parents home. One wanted out, the other thought it was worth more than it was. It was starting to fall into decay and we were willing to buy it and fix it. We made an offer, the realtor said she would not take the offer to the daughters as it was insulting so she thought. We found something else much better right away, cheaper with more and prettier land. It had better bones. We rehabbed that home and retired to it. The home the daughters could not agree upon still sits more than 15 years later. No one bought it and its just rotting away. Its worth little or nothing now. Mother Nature is claiming it now sadly. It would be so costly to do anything with it today. So sad two siblings cant get it together.

    Love these videos. Old homes are heartwarming and fill many empty voids. Maybe because I grew up in an old home. I love the sounds of wood when you are walking, the smells, and the feeling of history from other experiences. Thank you🌹

It's such a shame that a once much loved home has been left to rack & ruin whilst the greedy siblings fight over the estate🙄, I think their parents would be devastated. The french beds are gorgeous & definitely original ~ what a waste

He obviously provided well for his family in his younger years.....and those children couldn't get along well enough to work together to care for him in his old age??
    Terribly sad indeed.
    Thank you for your great channel and hard work! Merry Christmas🎄🎁❤

      Who knows that one of his children didn’t take care of him in his old age. That scenario is very common. One child does all the work and the others just live their lives and wait for their inheritance.
      Maybe that child wants to keep the house in the family name and the others want to sell. Who knows.

    I just LOVE your explorations Jeremy... I always loved looking at those Southern homes all fixed up with antiques and put back in "Mint Condition" as that's just so much a rarity today. Yet, your explorations are of houses, mansions that have been left dilapidated for one reason or another, yet like this one yet must have most likely Amazingly Untold History behind them...

  • @TheAnimalsMagicShop
    @TheAnimalsMagicShop Рік тому +1

    This was such an elegant home and I like how you learned the history and acted respectfully. It looked like the majority of items inside were removed and I have a feeling that family did come for some of them. Strange how sinks and such were dismantled and rooms were in various stages of repair so I wonder if Marcel actually finished the renovations? So many questions, and did I see bowls of food upstairs in the attic? A shame the estate hasn't been settled after almost a decade. It was a beautiful tour, thank you.

    Jeremy I like your way of describing thing. "Nature reclaiming" instead of rotting away or "how beautiful the decay". I have never thought of it like that but when you pointed out the black mold I saw what you meant and at the one of the casement windows the wallpaper had rolled back like it was the edge of a curtain. Thank you ❤
