No info at all? I did not see charcoal so it doesn't look like the house burned down but there also isn't, I think, enough debris to suggest the house was completed and just fell down. While I think it is odd to think of the pool being completed before the house, it looks like the house was being built and they just stopped and left it and it has all fallen down since.
Excellent find and Great explore. Still a lot to see even tho house was gone. Appreciated your filming, editing and music. Thank you for sharing and for not disclosing location, VERY respectful! 🏠 🏡 ❤️
Whoever owned this place may have died and whoever inherited it might not be able to afford to fix it up yet. The land could have been in the family for a long time. Great video!
Very Intense. Great Footage and spooky the way everything ends in life. The Collection. My friend in his 50's Just keeps buying projects and never finishes them. Neglecting his kids in pursuit for his wildest dreams. This is what his place will look like in the end. Great Video. Happy Halloween.
This looks like the beginning of a movie that dissolves into the property as it was before it was abandoned. Kids sliding into the pool, adults at the grill, etc. Really spooky.
Looks like there was a fire. I’ve seen homes that caught fire and it ends up being too much for some people to overcome and they end up just leaving. Sad to see anywhere.
Natural disasters can have that effect as well. A few years ago I was overseeing home demolitions of Sandy-damaged homes in NY. We did this one house in Staten Island, right along the beach. It was like they just packed some suitcases and left. The furniture pits and pans, dishes all still there. Even some old condiments in the refrigerator. Like they couldn't stand to see it again.
❤❤❤ love that you don't talk , the camera says it all. How sneaky are some of the comments to get you to say where this is, some people can't read where you told the story in the comment. section 🤔
Yes, I think that was one beautiful big home at some point . Judging by the garage it looks as if someone knew what they were doing as far as mechanics. A pool , no close neighbors, maybe a peaceful existence. Thank you for sharing this.
How does someone just walk leave something like that or if they died, you'd think someone from the family or even a relative would have kept it beautiful like it once was years ago. To me it's like people don't realize just how fortunate they are to have something as neat and stunning like that was
Yes, so wasteful humans are. Unless there were no heirs and the person passed away. Very sad anytime a home is left like this. Or maybe they went to prison and the family, if there was one, couldn't make it financially. The videographer didn't say.
This house washn't walked away from, something catastrophic happened here. Family can't necessarily take over property no matter how much they care. There are a truck load of expensive thing that need doing and most ordinary people can't afford to do so;
Sometimes, there is so much conflict between siblings over ownership, that the property is neglected. If the will is challenged, in court, it takes money to defend onesel. This is money that could have gone toward property taxes and upkeep of the property. People may be so distressed that they walk away from it all. In the meantime, the one's that challenged ownership, are too busy blaming the one who's name was on the deed, saying that person should have kept things in order. They ignored the saying, be careful what you ask for, you just might get it.
Most family nowadays have enough worries of their own and can't handle delegating stuff left behind, so they walk away from it all. Makes you check yourself, stop all the buying we've been programmed to do, and donate things of our own, for a simpler lifestyle.
Who knows? Sometimes a retired couple remains and the kids move far away. If the children don't have the means to travel, hire lawyers etc. and there are things like property taxes in arrears, they just forget about it. This happened with two homes in my neighborhood but this isn't a remote area. The houses just sat for a few years building up tax debt and the State auctioned them off. One house was bought by a private owner who lives in it the other was purchased by a contractor who completely remodeled it and was bought by a young family. The problem happens when the house is as remote as this place. Soon it is overgrown and forgotten. Probably has a high property tax liability now.
It's so strange that this wonderful place was once the hubbub of this family and friends, and now, means nothing. From dust to dust. What a great find in the middle of nowhere!
Looks like ocean county or south jersey on strength of pines n landscape etc be surprised if monmouth Middlesex or essex...dope vibes n Lotta stuff left behind, sad no family left Cadillac? DopeCadillac ✌🏻💨stay free
yeah didn't see any indication of fire. but this wasnt the first person there as there was a wheelbarrow in the living room and drum. Was reported earlier, owner went to prison and bank bought property and bank dissolved. What a shame.@@walkingcam1
Loved the Caddy and if you look closely there were actually two Mercedes! Really would’ve liked to see the numbers on the back so I could know which engines they had. The interior on the Caddy looked pristine! Those mechanics here on RU-vid that rescue old abandoned cars need to pay a visit here!
Interesting places in NJ that remain unknown to us as curious visitors. NJ has places that I would never go near them after dark. I once stayed at a highway motel where only a few blocks away, I found myself at an entrance to a quiet small wooded area next to country road from main highway. NJ is truly a mysterious state to explore (if you dare, 🤔).
Hello Kethshara. In my opinion the scariest places in southern and central NJ are its swamps abandoned cranberry bogs. Even in day light i feel there uncomfortable))
@walkingcam1 what is it about the cranberry bogs that make you feel unsettled. I live in the pune Barrens and enjoy walking time areas. It feels very peaceful.
That place has been abandoned for at least 20 years, judging by the damage and the growth of the trees. That Cadillac looks useable. You have to wonder what happened. Did the people not survive the fire, and had no children? They were obviously well off, whoever once lived here.
Mafia ties, I know where this place is. I believe it was confiscated by Feds and can not be auctioned till Feds release it. Feds have been known to sit on things like this for decades sometimes. From what I understand house had an electrical fire at some point after confiscation.
Everyone survived the fire it burned back in 2006 I'm a firefighter in the town where this house is I was there when it burnt it started as a kitchen fire and was contained to the kitchen dining room and the living room we left after seeing no more smoke or hot spots and we were called back out 4 hours later with the entire house burning and the home owner telling us to let it burn it will be less for me to clean up he didn't have insurance on the house
What a beautiful piece of land. It has so much potential. It would be great for living off grid and living just from what you grow on it. God bless NJ.🌺
Do you ever attempt to find out whom lived at these places, and what happened to them? Other than death. The cars left behind.. had to have been something traumatic, not by choice. Or maybe it all became too much for the owners then. Looks like they would've had the means to just leave everything behind and start over.
Cool video! Looks like the owner might have been a truck driver for a living at some point, so it was cool to see an abandoned one. Sad the whole house is fallen apart though.
Wow that was very creepy! I give you credit for going out there by yourself. Just watching you i was scared that, well you know what you might find. It gives off a very heavy feeling. Sadness
Very cool. I see all kinds of "treasure" valuable treasure . @ 9:08 that orange rear tine tiller is a 1978 Ariens rocket tiller. A collector's item. They go for about 300 to 800 bucks.
Would it be safe to say this is in the ''' PINE BARRONS '''???? Of South Jersey .... Being from Berlin N.J. I would walk and Drive these areas a lot...
That is so much left behind. So much machinery and equipment. The backstory would be a fascinating as the video is. Def sad even if the family just walked away from a fire. Just makes you wonder if someone was the sole survivor and a family, and there was no one to inherit the property. If that’s the case, the state is going to take it over, being so deep in the woods, at least it won’t be a Starbucks or self storage.
when some one dies without a will, or the heir is someone living on state Medicaid the assets would go to the state. I believe this property was owned and the title deed cannot be transfer to another owner. Same with the auto truck tractor rototiller. All will be as salvage for a tax lien deed when they go for auction in a few years
With the cars, dump truck, boats on trailers...there must be a road/driveway into this place. Obviously had electric, so it's not TOO old, maybe quite possibly in the family? Or it could be that property taxes became too high and couldn't afford it any longer (like those of us that 'abandon' New Jersey). Still looks like a place I'd be exploring if I had discovered it.
@@walkingcam1damned organized crime in NJ. It doesn’t pay! Most end up in jail or dead before their time. Well, at least the wife went on and had a life somewhere, so it’s not all bad.
The old Mack dump truck at the end. Whoever owned it was a construction worker there’s good money in being owner operator especially if you do large construction projects like building hi ways and housing projects
It looks like a place in Browns Mills. I used to live in near Curtin Avenue. It used to be a village. I’ve been looking for it through Google maps and everywhere and this is how I found your page.
What year was the inspection sticker on Cadillac from? What about the registration on the dump truck plate?didnit have a year. That would give a clue to how long they have been there.
I've been here. Found it while metal detecting. The owner supposedly went to jail. Property taken over by bank. Bank dissolved. I think it was take. Over by state.
Great tour - I watch a lot of them - but, this one really touched me - invoked similar memories of my own childhood 60 summers ago - sad - wonder if Nitschke was right, after all ...
BTW...Kudos to the videographer for not giving us the usual useless babble that accompanies such videos. Thank you for letting us just take it all in and enjoying the serenity of it all.
Do you carry some bitter resentment against wealthy people or something? If not, you certainly give that impression. Is it just because you feel like a failure for some reason…unable to find gainful employment or just never been a fan of working and have personality traits that prevent you from succeeding at much of anything so you choose to blame the “greedy rich people” who must be responsible for your lack of achievement so they should have to give up most of what they’ve worked for so you can have more money for minimal effort? I know, that’s a lot of speculation…but it’s usually somewhere in the ballpark of reality.
It started as a kitchen fire I am a firefighter in this town we saved the house the fire was contained to the kitchen dining room and some of the living room we left the scene with no more smoke or hot spots showing we were called back out there 4 hours later with the entire house involved parts of the home that were completely not touched by the first fire were on fire when got back there the owner told us to let it burn he had no insurance and no money to clean up the mess pretty crazy
Hmmmmm.... Interesting. Like your vids. Keep walking. Wow. Actually heard birds chirping. U gotta get into the sandy pines. Love that creepy wind sound on the tops of the trees.
Hey! Good work dude! Just wanted you to know that the boat near the end of the video, you blurred the reg number, but you can still see it when you pass by it at the beginning when you aare walking out of the garage, you may want to go back and blur that out as well.
My cousin took down the plate number since she works at DMV. She will be checking into the owner and possibly buying the land at a fraction of its worth. She said to thank you.
man that dog or cyote at 3:20 really makes this video beutiful. idk something about how it shows the way nature is interacting with it. really striking.
Wow I’m completely blown away!!! I don’t know why this was on my fyp today! Maybe just plain luck. I have been here, I believe it was in 2006. The couple who lived here had gone through a divorce and she moved out taking most of his money. I don’t know the whole story. I had been there to do some land clearing. The house was up but pretty bad condition due to a bad foundation. I think if I remember right there was some stuff going on related to drugs also. I think the owner ended up in prison. It is surprising that the house got bad so fast. It looks like there is at least 20 years of damage, and yet in 2006 it was livable. I wonder if the foundation got much worse and it fell in
The owner passed a while back i think 98 or 99. the kids don't want anything to do with his trucking co. i am surprised that the old mack is still there however his others are gone.
