The interior of this place is beautiful! No dust, no mildew, no water or rot damage. The rooves need to be replaced, but that's the only real damage I can see. This place can be beautiful once again.

This one actually made me cry because if I had ever been blessed with that kind of money this would be the home I would have wanted. The furnishings and everything else. I don’t understand how rich people can just walk away. I can understand if there are tragedies and you can’t come back but how some people can just walk away from everything and just start over fresh like their past or present never existed is beyond my comprehension.

I immediately started thinking about the house I grew up in, and actually got a lil bit depressed because of how much I still want to go home. These people had no care whatsoever, I just don't get it... Was this place haunted or something..?

So if you had been blessed with money, you would have found appropriateness in the rapacious use of resources, land, and space to go to you alone (referring to the mansion)?

@@mikegarippo7815 I have a very large family and we all would have loved this home and what it offered. When you come from nothing and you don’t have the luxury of having a beautiful home and land it is something to be thankful for. I am very thankful to have what I have but we are in dire need of repairs that we can’t afford because of the cost associated with things in todays world. It probably better that I don’t watch anymore of this videos so that way I won’t be feeling like I am missing out on something I’ll never have. My riches will come in my next life 😊

This is like the 3 or 4th video of yours I watched. I just realized how isolated these multi million dollars homes are from everything and anyone. I see this and just appreciate my 2 bedroom apartment that I can keep up and keep clean. I can just imagine the water, pge, house cleaning, lawn care, property tax and the cost to move everything to another house is mind blowing so I think that is why they just get up and leave with just their valuables and personal belongings. I think these homes should be used for seniors to live in like a resort and not confined in a small room at a convelesant home.

Nice to see no vandalism…. Great refrig in guest house! Love the painting and decor within guest house.

For an abandoned place I am seriously surprised that it wasn't destroyed or broken into for theft.

@Didn't Ask...Don't Care It's sad but that's the reality. People have zero respect for anything, including themselves sometimes. They'll break into places that are abandoned just to destroy it or steal what they can. Instead of just being respectful and exploring to admire beauty, they think it's fun to destroy and steal. I'll never understand that mentality.

The guest house is so quaint and charming. Everything left behind as if they had planned to return one day. The mansion must be beautiful too. Thank you. Nice to see your wife. Hope she fully recovers soon.😍

WOW! Everything in excellent condition! Makes me sad when all these items were left behind. I’d be happy just living in the guest house!! Thanks for sharing your awesome find!

This truly was a beautiful home including the contents. Why they let any home rot like this is heartbreaking.. I am sure many wonderful memories are in that home.

It was beautiful! I can't imagine what the mansion looked like since the guest house was so charming. I saw quite a few exquisite feature and treasures. I simply adored the bathroom with the floral detail and the turquoise jewelry box (did it feel like marble) as well as the kitchen being adorable! It was wonderful to see your lovely wife with you, I hope her path to complete recovery goes smoothly and passes quickly. You guys take care, stay safe & God bless!💕Kat

It's very sad considering the first video I saw was 3 years ago. Check it out some of the other videos, they are worth it. It's all gone now.

That was incredible. If that was the cottage I can’t imagine what the mansion must’ve been like. Very cute and sad that it just got abandoned.

What wonderful place . . . I would love to live in this place. So bright and cozy. Bigger than my own home. By the way, thanks for posting the Bible verses at the beginning of your videos. I think that's awesome. Thanks for sharing this great place with us.

Can’t believe all this is just left. Such a shame! Great explore guys! 🥰🥰🥰

Their Horizon Farm held three of the state's top stallions. The family had a high interest in racehorses, which you'll understand a little more when we take a look at the horse farm! With everything still inside after the owners had died, the land eventually sold for $20 million in 2006 to a couple who thought they could keep up on the payments. The property finally went into foreclosure.

I love that you always put a Bible verse in the intro 🙏🏼

This is absolutely beautiful! So sad to see everything left behind.

What a beautiful home. Such a sad thing to see it just sitting there. Awesome video as always BB!

This is so beautiful. It breaks my heart when people are foreclosed on and lose everything. 💔 😢 Bankruptcy is devastating.

When people are faced with foreclosure, it's usually their fault for living irresponsibly.

I would explore abandon buildings a lot as a kid but I honestly there are so many times I almost got caught by the police. As an adult I stop doing it because I’m terrified of getting charged with trespassing. How does your team find places to explore that Aren’t calling with cops? Your videos make me want to get back into.

It's gone? What a shame. It was a really nice mansion. Guest house is really nice. I hope everything was removed before it got demolished.

You can think and I think these isn't first place practical homes to homeless and place like this has builded and owned someone, maybe died in trip or jailed and kids have own life's and problems. If you are rich in material but running out of money, then you cannot know how to life without money and things escalets, but place like these are so many around west and everywhere and reasons are for them even more cause one single reason dosen't usually turned like this. And places can survive because material is so overlooked and cannot touch legally anyone maybe, when this happens. Only one who maybe could can be missing somewhere.

i saw the inside of the main mansion from a youtube group called decayingwidwest...was pretty nice. they got in there somehow. it was aired april 8th.

loved it!

Wow!! 2 great ponds for ice skating too!! I hope someone buys it!!

I am glad your wife is feeling better.

Awesome place. Best to ur wife I also broke my leg last year May. Amd still healing. All the best. Love ur explores

I can’t understand why someone would leave all their belongings. Makes no sense. Even if it was foreclosed on , the occupants would take their belongings.

Beautiful little place.

I think the guest house was actually a "granny house" n she had a bedroom for the grandkids and that's why some of their toys are there. It's too well decorated/furnished to be just for kids . Plus the beanie baby pink bear in the shelf in the living room said "grandma" Luv your vlogs, trying to watch them all, altho kinda in reverse. Also, your wife's very pretty. You 2 go well together.
