This mansion built sometime in the early nineteen hundreds sits all by itself on the top of a hill overlooking a lake might be one of the most amazing structures I've ever had the privilege of exploring.
Everything about this house screams class. This is a place of privilege, a place of old money and a home that was built with every possible luxury. The investment that must have gone into the construction this luxury wilderness mansion must have been astronomical in its day.
No expense was spared to make this mansion stand out above the rest. To my knowledge there is no other home with this type of opulence anywhere in this area. The grand entryway with the fireplace centerpiece welcomes all the guess and residence who came in here. An elevator from the basement to the main floor purely for service and nothing more. There was no expense spared. Multiple kitchens, so many bedrooms I confused this Mansion for a hotel but after spending time here I know it was a home.
This Mansion had an east wing and west Wing which my guess is allowed for privacy in a large family. If you look closely you can tell which room belonged to kids.
The basement might be one of the creepiest basements I've ever been in. The walk down the long dank hall ways made me wonder how this could have been usable active space at one point. The walk in safe? WTF? I wish I had a torch just to see what was inside!
I can't even begin to fathom how this place became idol, how came to sit all by itself. So much went into it and now nobody cares.
I encourage you to watch this video and look for the idiosyncrasies that stand out to you. There's no way for me to describe them all and how they made me feel. Please let me know in the comments.

As you were walking through, all I could think of is Wow this place has a lot of potential to come back to full life again. If only I had the money. It could be more than just a home for someone. I envisioned it as a Bread & Breakfast - make it a registered historical home - use those kitchens to the fullest making homemade Bread, jams and jellies for sale to guests and tourists coming to see the place. Nice herb garden outside one of the kitchens, An English Cottage flower garden, with outdoor seating areas, Vegetable garden and fully landscaped to the T. Would be beautiful, with life back in it. Yes I can dream. The woodwork is outstanding and speaks for its time when quality and fineness was admired more so than today except by us few unfortunately. Beautiful location. It has a lot going for it if someone would put the money, time and highest of efforts into bringing it back. Thank you for sharing this exploration.

If you didn't want to have people invading your private life, could see locking a couple doors and rent out the servants' quarters having the renter use the back door. Either split the kitchen or add a kitchenette upstairs. So much potential, so much opportunity, yet doubt ever happen as too many like this.

I own and live in a beautiful, 3,500 sq. ft.(not including the bonus room and the garage) Secluded log home (that we named Lucky Star Lodge) that was custom built and custom finished, with, among other things I love, 3 fireplaces, 3 porches, cathedral ceilings, 3 and 1/2 baths, 4 massive bedrooms, slate and hardwood flooring, exposed beams, and a chefs kitchen. I love our home and my family in our home. There is no place I’d rather be than home. It’s my favorite place above all others. But Omg this place is amazing. AMAZING. This is a home and grounds to be appreciated. A true, authentic and ENORMOUS hand cut stone house with amazing grounds, hardwood floors, a built in pipe organ (holy crap), huge kitchens with custom cabinetry and butcher block counters, all that beautiful wood and all those custom touches, arched porticos, window seats, stone and brick wood burning fireplaces (I lost count of how many there are but it’s a lot, and there’s even one in the basement), giant great room with cathedral ceilings, beautiful chandelier, hand cut wood flooring, winding staircase with gorgeous hand made spindle railing, an inside gallery with beautiful stonework, built in benches, cast iron tubs, laundry chutes, exposed beams, built in bookcases and a winding, climbing cement stair path. It’s grounds look expansive and could be beautiful if manicured with flowers planted, and it’s also situated on a lovely coast line. And omg is that an ELEVATOR??? Someone took a lot of care and money to build this home, and it’s really something special; one of a kind. Someone loved this home. Really loved it and made it with love. Like my home, It also has a real country manor estate and hunting lodge feel to it. Right down to the collapsed cooking stove with the steed on it. This home has unlimited potential. It could be amazing if restored properly and authentically to the home’s style and period, and all that beautiful wood restored to a luster. So incredible. Vandalism, especially to a home this beautiful and lovingly made, really sucks. I hope this home gets the owner it deserves someday who can properly restore it to its former glory and a family to live in it and love it for generations.

@Earthdogbonzo3 4 года назад

Pushing aside all of the material distractions listed in your comment this is one of the most disturbing explorations I have viewed here. The appliances and bathroom fixtures are frozen in the early 1950s and therefore this structure is frozen too. There is little trace of life left behind by the previous owner and what little is there is flat. There is no sense of a family bursting with children and energy, no love . . . .just a big dull and empty space, dated by appliances and porcelain fixtures. A fitting testimonial to the old adage: You can't take it with you'.

You don't have to worry about "Uncle Earl" spotting you snooping around "Grandmama's" old place ; P. I love the rock steps that lead up to through the forest and the stonework all over the mansion. That would be my dream exploration. I wish we had places like that where I live, but the only mansions within a 100 mile radius of me are occupied. I bet that place was fantastic back in the 1920s-40s. I can picture Clark Gable or Errol Flynn standing out on the side porch smoking a pipe of Sir Walter Raleigh tobacco. I would love to be able to turn back time while standing in front of that mansion just to see how it looked back then.

@josephineroe8424 6 лет назад

Her Majesty Downton Abbey is a silly unrealistic soap opera, plus the servants in that show are treated pretty darn well. This house looks to date from the 1930s or 40s, possibly even later. That was hardly a time of extreme classism. In fact, extreme classism never really existed in the US anyway.

@Slayerjane61 6 лет назад

Why do you assume immigrants built the house? And even if they did, why do you again assume that they worked only for pennies? I doubt you know very much about history, or when waves of immigrants came to the U.S.A. That house was built by very skilled craftsmen, and I bet they got paid very well, immigrants or not!

@wendynardi657 6 лет назад

This is a very strange building; I won't say 'house' or 'mansion' because I don't think this was ever meant to be a residence. I don't think it is as old as some folks here have said, but the exterior stonewok is extraordinary. The interior is just bewildering. The custom built-ins have an almost fussy feel, as in: the big coffee pot will go here and will always BE here, and this little room will be for such-and-such and always WILL be. But, as others have noted, the 'upgrades' over time seem to have been made on a stringent budget, by people who did not share or care about the original builders' sensibilities. If I had to guess, I'd say it was a hunting lodge or clubhouse of some kind.

Just the amount of quality tongue and groove wood alone in that mansion was enough to pay for a home. The masonry looks impeccable. A real master did the stonework. The way it's built, it could easily last another 200 years. It looks like it's been modernized somewhat, but it seems like it's been done well. Rewiring it would pay for another house, too. You would have to bribe the electrical inspector. Lol.

@richardfowler3254 6 лет назад

There was also a lot of cheap 60's-70's paneling all over (stuff that was spray painted). It also looks like someone began to renovate the place. I saw a CAT5 cable running inside of the wall at the built in desk and the toilet that had "CAUTION" tape on it. I have seen that for years on projects that I have worked. I think that it was abandoned a second time because funds ran out. I saw newer tools in the basement workshop...

@Caninecancersucksrocks 6 лет назад

This may seem like a couple of random questions, but I noticed there was a body of water nearby? Is that a large lake? Ocean? And also, is there train tracks in the vicinity? An abandoned mine? To me this place appears to be a sort of crew station or halfway hotel sort of place, the basement is clearly set up for office and sleeping stations and storage. If the railway is nearby, I'm betting it was a bunkhouse for workers along the way. I've seen places like this before - a family would be paid by the railway or shipping business to live there, handle the operations, provide room & board to workers. Usually it's for water shipping or railway shipping/working, but could also be the big main house for a mining operation as well (explains the office like basement & storage, as well as the big safe - they'd keep workers pay, local banking, money and valuables being shipped, etc). It would also serve as the gathering place for church services on Sundays. It's definitely what would often be called "the big house". All of this depends on its geographical location, which I hope you don't share...it'd be a shame if it was vandalized. Hope this might help shed some light or open more avenues in investigating the history on all this! 😊

Mason Methot A petition to save it - from what?

All it takes is a little bit of investigation if he’s worried about disclosing the location I understand that but where the hell is it at? They hinted at Canada or help from a “Canadian“ individual who apparently told them about the property. We need more context in these explores. Without it it’s difficult to imagine further what the possibilities might have been. I think it was some sort of hunting and fishing lodge, frankly. As the videographer went down the stairs in the back, did you notice that there was a wooden board with a wood look like rows and rows of key holders to be hung on there. Could that have been used to hold the keys to each room question mark. Will never know.

The entry is what I imagine as influenced by great Celtic halls. The stonework is magnificent as is the setting. Some parts are obviously old and grand but many interior doors seemed modern and incongruous to the overall feel of the structure. The drill press in the basement appears modern. How in the world did that organ get placed where it was? Can one imagine when the house had life! Surely there must be recorded deeds of property owners. I for one could not leave further research behind...

@rustyaxelrod 6 лет назад

I thought the video was was good, thumbs up. I think the house was built in the late 30’s to early 40’s. Renovations kept it up to date into the early or even mid 80’s. Like most of the place, I think the foundation has been repaired and fixed from the outside but the original parts were clearly block construction. Some walls were Sheetrock, some were plaster and lath, electrical spanned the eras I mentioned from the round switch’s and few outlets to the jacuzzi tub and the GFI outlet. The curious electronics in the basement are the relays for the elevator. It has all the niceties of a mansion, but it was clearly intended to not appear too opulent. There aren’t any “flourishes” on the exterior and most of the wood looks like maple to me, fancy would have been mahogany or similar especially in the gentlemen’s study (where the small safe was). That room had properly skookum construction of the paneling, but inexpensive wood. I think this house has an interesting story. The basement had some sort of purpose like a business or meeting place...or something. The map and and all the key hooks on the board in the stairwell are curious also. Someone here was “in charge” of something. I didn’t see any signs of the grounds being showy either. The servants were few also, unless there were other buildings for them on the grounds somewhere. The drive didn’t appear to have been bricked or cobbled either. All in all, it a very nice house that says “don’t pay too much attention to me, nothing to see here” when actually there was. I didn’t pick up on any ghost vibes, sometimes I do.

I don't get it; they build a beautiful sweeping staircase and then they put a wall in front of it. The staircase should be admired from all of the downstairs rooms. Now I see why boarding up windows is such a good way of preserving the walls and other wood elements. This house should be lived in; what a shame.

@markroeder2491 6 лет назад

Exactly... I thought the same thing. I would remove the arches in front of the beautiful stairway. But that could wait. First remove the vegetation from around the house and repair the windows and frames. Re-roof and the start stripping th interior out and refinish with larger rooms. The bones of the building are solid and just in need of attention. Did you see the view if you removed some of the timber on the lake side? Wow! Must be on an island or it would be totally trashed by now.

@adrielrowley 6 лет назад

The issue is structure. The wall of the wing is supporting the second floor, the second floor stone wall, and the roof. Also could be an issue of shear and lateral forces with such a large opening.

@adrielrowley 6 лет назад

How are you going to remove the arches without the roof collapsing? Then you have the problem of making the new arch match the old in method and material. With the right amount of money, almost anything is possible.

@JeffCKeane 4 года назад

The impression I got from this tour is that, perhaps, the family needed to move, likely to some other area for business reasons. Every bit of contents was removed, indicating it was either a planned move, or very thorough relatives vacating the contents for an estate sale, perhaps. The plumbing that remained and was torn out of place indicates copper thieves got in prior to the boardup of the property. My best guess is this land/ property, whichever it is, has been sold to a developer and is in the planning stages. If I could aquire it, for safety reasons, [radon,asbestos,formaldehide and other building material hazards...] it makes more sense to me to get hold of the building plans & base a new building, modernized, with as many design elements from the original, incorporating some awesome modern elements to come to a much more open design that works with the existing site, rather than imposing itself ON the site. Yes, the rear side treeline, if on this land, does need to be selectively thinned and removed to take advantage of that spectacular [potential...] lake and horizon view. In my informed Architectural opinion, the circle drive needs to stay, but just prior to the approach, the garages should be on that side [vs it's current location on the egress side of the drive...] adjacent to the service area Kitchen/pantry/mudroom...] of the design or, perhaps incorporating a drive-thru service entry design element...] If funding allowed, a boathouse seems appropriate at shoreside, leading from an indoor/outdoor inground pool/patio BBQ-kitchenette. Lacking private funding, perhaps the B&B concept would be the best overall solution to save this entire property/ Estate.

First of all, I want to say that I am so glad you are not talking. If you don't know the history of it, then don't babble on, like other urban explorers do. Because 99% of the time, they sound like idiots. I watched this the first time on my Roku TV, and I couldn't hear anything creepy, but I also couldn't help but think, dang, there is a story to this, and it's got to be haunted. I lived in a haunted house for ten years, granted, nothing was "scary" but all of my family experienced some weird shit. And I was a skeptic up until having my own experiences, so paranormal stuff intrigues me now. Reading some of the comments that viewers left, were very informative, and I did re-listen to some of these spots and I could definitely hear the EVP's when I had my headphones on. I couldn't spot any 👻🐱

A lot of sounds on this one. It might be daadee or if he's got companionship but I've marked out the most obvious ones here. I recommend headphones and max volume to pick them up. I haven't really looked at video only sound. 4:51 Sounds like someone saying "They're empty" 9:18 right after he closes the elevator fence you can hear a faint whisper in the left ear 10:08 you can hear someone blowing lightly on the mic in the right ear 11:57 you can hear a distant dog barking or maybe a scream, I can't quite hear 14:45 sounds like a very faint whisper in the right ear saying "action" or something 17:39 really faint voice whispering "go away" while he's turning towards the corridor 19:36 really hard to hear but sounds like someone's saying "him" or "kim" in the left ear 20:18 Someone saying "thought" or something (very clear) 20:40 inaudible whispering in the right ear 21:38 This must be DaaDee talking. Sounds like "get out" 28:51 Might be DaaDee making a breathing noice but sounds like talking again 30:28 Again a very faint whispering

@Xanaxdu-si3ch 6 лет назад

Kim Mckeever, looking at the hardware, the kitchen and club room layouts, as well as the bath fixtures and the arches with the built-ins throughout the place, I think it was built as a country house for an affluent city dweller in the mid- to late- 1930s. The pine paneling and woodwork is age-approriate. A place like this would have been a good weekend getaway and needed staff -- notice the rear stairway that leads directly into the kitchen. For being vacant as long as it appears to be, the only real structural issue I can see is the roof. The mold in the kneewall closets can be fixed -- there appears to be a surprising lack of water damage. Updating the mechanicals could be a bitch, tho
