Abandoned 14 Million Dollar Mansion with Hidden Elevator and Safe
The previous owner of the mansion was a professional Baker. He earned his professional baker status with over 50 years in the Baking industry. He hung up his baking apron and decided to open up a business with his wife selling and manufacturing high end bakery equipment. The business was very successful, they sold thousands of units all over the world. Sadly a few years ago he passed away. Now the house and 25 acres sits abandoned waiting to be demolished for new luxury homes.

About me:
I have been exploring abandoned places since I was a child and now I would like to film the explores and share the videos with you.
My father took me to my first abandoned house when I was 7 years old. I remember going into the house and a old farmer came in and told us "we better watch out as the floors are all rotten and unsafe". Ever since that day I was hooked on exploring abandoned places.
If you have a location you would like to share with me or want me to explore for you please send me an email at abandonedurbexcanada@hotmail.com and I will give you full credit for the share in the description and during the video if you choose.

Odd place to have an elevator entrance/exit, in a bathroom? I’d hate to be sitting there doing my business and hear, “Ding”!!! and there stands your mother-in-law.😂

I think it was likely added when the homeowner became elderly and could no climb up the stairs. Probably lived alone, or just husband and wife, and would have no fear of someone else ever coming off the elevator.

Hey thank you 👍🏻
I do hope someone salvages the infrastructure and wood in this one. The place is pristine and obviously loved.
I’d love to go back in time and see this place in its glory, full of family and food and wine. Grapes growing. Life happening. I bet lots of relatives and friends from “the old country” came to stay in all those bedrooms. Staff living downstairs probably. LOTS of floor buffing going on, those floor gleam! The whole house feels quite well maintained, even if dated. The parents getting older, not interested in modern updates. Staff kept it really clean. A good, big, solid, functional house, not overly fancy. Notice there is no big grand kitchen, despite multiple. So interesting. Thank you, Brent. ☺️ Fabulous work as always. 👍
why would anyone tear down such a nice home? what a waste.

What a large, beautiful home! So sad it will be destroyed for some cheap, ugly apartment buildings that will fall apart within 10 years. *Sigh*, Thanks, Bret
My bidet was a lifesaver during the great covid toilet paper shortage.
Such a big house but a small kitchen. I expected something really grand and imposing, especially as you said he was a master Baker.
I love your channel and your excellent explores ! I do find it really no maddening that so many beautiful propertys aren't renovated, and they just knock em down and build more , it seens like a real waste .

This is a beautifully massive house. I thought it was owned by Italians and was sure once I saw the wine damigiane and the tomato bushels. In the basement they even had a room and table for sausage and tomato sauce making. With all those grape vines in the greenhouse, they must have also made wine. Great find, Brent! 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

OH NO!!! That Poor Sewing Machine! Sewing Machine Lady here. Great video! My favorite area was the Greenhouse. Weird, right? I liked the cat too.
I don't remember seeing a main kitchen. I'll have to go back and look but those always stand out in my brain. As big as that dining room was, you'd think the kitchen was just as luxurious! Thank you for showing this magnificent place!

Brent .... Hi again, I was having a sleepless night when *Ureka * here comes a vlog from my favourite xplorer xx (Love the cap, by the way🧢) I get really despondent when I realise they will tear down the home and build over the bakers dreams ! Thank you for taking care to give as much background as you can. Such a beautiful building I love the kitchen and sun room and all the wood everywhere. Keep on doing what you doing . I appreciate you so much. Janice 🇬🇧 xxxx

Absolutely Beautiful,,cannot believe they are to demolish this place,,They can bring just half and leave it in my yard .My old house was built before 1900 and you can tell it,,been working on it for years with not much accomplished,but it's mine,I guess it's paid for and a roof over my head..My Mom and Dad gave it to me so alot of sentimental value to me is worth more than money .Daddy called it a shack and its not pretty like this is,,wish i had some of the stuff that its built with...But just can't see someone tearing it down its in great shape still..Wow what a shame...Thanks for sharing It's an awesome place ..Love and Hugs from the USA.
The wood alone is worth a lot of money. So sad that this beautiful home is going down.
What a beautiful home. I'm surprised it hasn't been vandalized too much. All those dishes left behind - a women's shelter would love all of those. Really a shame its being demolished. Thanks Brent :o)
That place just screams 80's.
Nice big house. Thanks Brent for letting us tag along with you. Stay safe and well.👍🆒
Nice place. Lovely interior architecture. Wood everywhere, woaw. Love it. Good choice.😊
What a killer place. I get such mixed emotions of sadness, awe, curiosity, wonderment of the history of the people that lived in the homes you tour. I hope the demo crew saves the wood, fridge, etc. Thank you for the tour.
This was great! All that woodwork was so gorgeous. They probably had a lot of rugs (like the one in a heap inside the front door) to keep it from echoing too much.
Brent, this place was gorgeous! Thanks for the tour. I love your hat! 😁🙌🏼
I’ll say it again…. Thank you for your silence. Not constantly nattering away “oh cool”, “thats awesome”, “incredible “. You let the places speak for themselves.❤️. You’re the best.

I've always loved these giant homes, but I couldn't imagine living in one. If you had a large family, it would be cool, but there's no way I could manage to keep it maintained. Excellent exploration, as always. Thanks for sharing it.
I needed a running total of all the bathrooms. I’d love to see you add that to your explores, a running count of bedroom, bathrooms, and in the case of this home, kitchens. Such a beautiful home. So very grand.
That's a nice one Brent ! Good seeing you again .

Hey, thanks!
I’ve seen the toilet and bidet in a Rome hotel. The bidet was great to have especially with diarrhea-no wiping necessary. I was vomiting too so both toilets were quite handy. 🤭
That toilet looks like it might be a SELF CLEANING toilet. Hi Brent! Thanks for your videos...I love them!!
Love the video. I believe that toilet automatically opens when you get in front of the sensor when it's powered 😊
Again not sure what it is with your podcast intro with railroad bear deer and under water ship just love it
What a beautiful big house 🏠. Too bad that it's going to be demolished. There's nothing wrong with it. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 ❤.
Such a shame its going to be demolished…
Another great explore! Such a beautiful house I love all the wood. It’s a shame it’s going to be demolished and they will probably cut down the beautiful trees. Thanks for sharing Brent!❤️
What a waste for this beautiful house. So nice. All that gorgous woodwork. Hi Brent, good to see you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Another great explore, Brent! As always. I always have wondered, when I see big houses like this, what each room was for. I've always lived in a small house; I don't think I could decide what each room was for. lol
Amazing house!!! Too bad they will build fake fancy townhouses in place of this old beauty !! Thanks for the explore :)
Man's folly.....to think he'll live forever and build monuments to himself. Craigdarroch Castle has to be the ultimate example of that but it goes on all over the World. Great videos! I've just discovered your channel, nice work 👍🏻
Sure love the doors in that house and the hardwood floors. What a great explore. Looks very clean. Still sad to see another one about to be gone.
Imagine all the trees it took to build that monster house. I will never understand why a human thinks they need that much space.
What a magnificent house! Taking a wild guess the “dungeon “ was where they butchered farm animals???
Brent! Many THANKS for another awesome tour!!
Amazing, ty for taking me with you.
Thank you! Great explore!!
Very beautiful! Cool video bro! ❤️🤘👍
Thanks, Brent!👍👍

Thanks. Great visit

Excellent find and excellent video as always man! Always look forward to a new video from you and I gotta say this is one of my favourites you’ve ever done! Carry on brother! Happy to explore with you once again!
Oh wow beautifull house thanks friends 😮
19:58 Looks like part of the hydraulics related to the elevator. Most residential elevators use hydraulics. Commercial elevators use large three phase motors and bulky cable and pulley systems that are hard to fit into a house or power properly on a residential electrical service.
Hello Brent!! What a huge house! Just amazing place but a shame these darn developers buy the houses just to tear them down. Thanks for taking me along.😊❤
beautiful home, love the staircase, floor to ceiling windows, fireplace, floors and doors, gorgeous
Great find & video You always do a great job. Thanks
This is such a beautiful home. I love all the wood and the chandeliers! That could easily be fixed up again! It’s just so lovely! Love your smile Brent! ❤❤❤
Beautiful home
wow,, I hope they get as much stuff out of that house as they can, so much amazing woodwork that can be reused,, sad to that house going away, but thank you for showing us this amazing video before it gone,
Thanks for sharing, Brent. It’s a beautiful home, but I would not like to clean or heat it! Lol!
Beautiful home sad to see that it will be torn down. Thanks Cheers!
Incredible woodworking throughout. Even in the 80’s this house would have cost 💲 10M+ to build and complete. A real shame it’s getting demolished. The power supplies are 3 phase power (Industrial supply). You would have needed that kind of energy for such a large building. It was interesting to see how much gas heating they used.
I noticed some of the wood floors had round pegs holding them together. Very unique. I wonder what they grew in the greenhouses? Cool place!
That place is amazing😍 I'm so jealous I couldn't walk through it too❣️ thank you for showing it to us 😁
Very beautiful place
Absolutely loved that light fixture in the dining room. Seed to be so many doors to shut off different rooms. It just seemed strange to me. Beautiful place . Loved the green house.
Oh my dear Brent❤ Thank you for posting this stunning mansion❤ Spending my Friday night trying to stay awake, until I know our oldest son, daughter-in-law, and youngest grandson, arrive safely at their destination. Was intending on binging some of my favorites of your prior explores. But, "SURPRISE🎉😂" A large & stunning mansion tour❤ You are so good to work diligently to locate, research, and bravely explore...with all of us loyal subscribers tagging along😅 Appreciate you lots & lots. Be blessed, safe, and healthy Brent❤ Oh, I think you look great wearing that hat too👍
Just gorgeous
Absolutely beautiful awesome vid thanks for sharing ❤✌️
I hope somebody is going to salvage doors, windows, etc. or make it livable & build around it! They probably grew their own herbs in the greenhouse.
And also you move things along. You have a gift for timing.
Impressionante a riqueza do seu país, ótimo vídeo Brent.
I'd love to have the rug in the beginning of the video.
So many treasures and memories💙💚 left behind.
Brent and mansions! Nothing better!!! 😊😊😊
The toilet seat with the plugged in cable seems to be a washlet seat like the toilet seats used in Japan. They come with bidet built in and a heated seat. The console was mounted on the wall next to the toilet.
This is a pretty place and in its time it must have been beautiful. The elevator in the bathroom is a luxury I wouldn't care for. The staircase is beautiful and the upstairs banister's. It seems sad they are to take it down, but it has passed its time. Thank you for sharing.
Wow beautiful
Such a beautiful house to be tore down it seems like so many memories there
Beautiful house
The toilet sees you coming and lights up, lifts the lid, and heats the seat. ☺️ Such a pretty house. Someone loved plants, and was good at growing them. So sad when people pass on and their loved one is left behind, especially when they got along so well and helped each other. All those tubs of fertilizer in the greenhouse... it's always made me wonder about how growing your own food can be really expensive. She loved her chickens and sharing the eggs with others. 😶🌫️
What an odd layout imho but, could have been a lovely home. Shame its being demolished Brent!
Amazing 👍

Wow, it makes me so upset to see a large,lovely well-kept place like that sold for development. I do hope someone like Salvage Kings comes in to rescue that wonderful wood everywhere. Such a shame. Was there no family interested in having the place? Perhaps just too big a house, too much work and too much money offered Very sad! And Brent, bidets are lovely!
Beautiful home! Looks like are going to save some interior things.

So sad that this home will be demolished. The craftsmanship and hrs of labour put into this place. 😢. Too bad it ends this way.
Beautiful floors
I think that toilet is an early wall mounted toilet with built in warm water bidet and it's in a wet room for easy wash down/ cleaning. Easier than getting from a toilet to a bidet I guess if you're elderly.
