Millionaires Unbelievable $4.7 Million Dollar ABANDONED 1980's Lake Front Dream Home! 

My parents built this house. They lived there 1978-200? My husband and I married in the backyard under a giant maple tree that is no longer there. We had so many fun parties there. I recognize all those fixtures and tiles. We used to sneak out onto that deck between the two bedrooms to smoke cigarettes! So nostalgic to virtually walk through the house. Thank-you for this.

That house was beautiful !! It's sad about all that mold down there. Thank you for bringing it to us. Be careful with your health going down there with all that mold, it can make you very sick,and it only takes a minute. Take care and be safe.

This is just opinion and from what I saw throughout the house. It was was probably built between late 1950’s-1960’s. The washroom up stairs is mainly from the late 1960’s-1970’s with the colors and style some other things were updated over time, like shower doors and tile walls from 1980’s. The original structure of the house has had renovations and additions added on on the main level. The hardwood is original. The kitchen has early 1990’s updated. The bedroom on the main level the washroom is 1980’s style, light fixtures throughout the house can be from 1970’s to 2000’s, the fire place was probably 1995-1999 replaced, the sunroom was built later and the pool light fixture says they had a pool table in there then converted it using the old kitchen cabinets and stove and whatever else. Garage was added on later. Just what got from this and whoever picked the color omg 🤢

They abandoned homes in the states without even selling or emptying them

It's sad that some of the things inside could not be reused somewhere. Someone I'm sure could use it.

As an older guy I see these these design choices and just cringe. As some who delivered wine all over the golden horseshoe -money does not equal taste. The windows always bothered me. Your house is sitting on a gorgeous vista. And aside from the sunroom. There are no big bay windows facing it. By the way I'd cook all my meals in the sunroom. As for reno-ing this place, the water marks that run half-way up the basement walls say nope! You would have to gut the entire place and at that point you would just re-build. Excellent content as always.

Very beautiful house Noah. I'd live here too but a bit further back. One disgusting basement. Definitely flooded. Love it, and we have a new favorite house hear. I can only imagine what money was offered to the folks who lived here. I love everything about the house, wouldn't change anything except the orange walls in that one room. That's it. Fantastic explore Noah. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I dont like new homes. They have no character. No soul. They build them fast without the care that used to be taken. It's all about speed of work now. Not craftsmanship. Thank you for the tour

I've never enjoyed a home tour more than this. It is fabulous. The planning and ideas that were put into this home all added up to one fantastic build. Many thanks. This is my favorite home,

This place is wonderful. What a shame it’s been neglected. The bathrooms should be preserved! The kitchen was so bright and cheery. I hope the family enjoyed the time they had there. Thanks for sharing.

Love it...except the flooding issues.. id change a few colors..other than that not a thing...but also not worth 4.5 million...more like 500,000..

Ok so this is my opinion on this house. It appears to me that part of it was an older existing house that had a new addition added in the 80’s and the old part also got re decorated. That one downstairs bathroom is much older looking tile and tub, that one part of the basement looks much older and the weird step ups and downs on the stairs.

I don't think that wall pattern in the basement is wallpaper. In the 90s it was really common to use paint in a "creative" way on your walls. It's why the pattern continues seamlessly onto the door and wallplate. Check out anything by Debbie Travis and you'll see what I mean.

Yep, the Wendy's we frequent has that same glass indoor patio area.

I love this place! The purple walls, flower details everywhere and sunroom are amazing! It’s such a shame it’s going to be torn down for a modern monstrosity.

As a lover of all thing 80’s and a baby of the same, this was utterly beautiful. The decor, the colours - I would have lived in it as it is! I hate new homes - not only are they crap and poorly built, nevermind incredibly soulless and bland, but so samey. Excellently explore dude

I appreciate how young people appreciate how we styled in the 80's , Awesome times! Im 56 I so miss those days!!

I love older houses, they have a very special atmosphere and a certain charm. This is missing in new and modern houses. A beautiful house and place, thanks for the great exploration and fantastic video, Noah.

This house is full of character, absolutely beautiful! Thank you for an awesome tour.💞

Such a shame Canada tears down such nice homes

I always hated those small square tiled counter tops, all they did was collect germs in the grout . Yuk ..

Nice to have money you can do enithenk nice widio noah😊.

The best washing machines , the old ones where if they didn't wash, you could turn on & drain & fix the mess. Now you keep having to start over & it leaves the water & puts more water in. I love the Kenmore old machines you could turn on whatever you needed. Stop,spin,drain & water level.

I love seeing relic things in these houses. You’re right the windows 🪟 in the sunroom is like the old Wendy’s.

neat light fixtures left behind! 🤩

Nice explore. I think it's an older home that was renovated in the eighties.

Amazing house! Favorite one I’ve seen in a while. Nice find! I would love to restore a house like this if I won the lottery! I’d keep it as original as possible.

Hiya Noah. Awesome find , I love everything about this house. Just missing the pool. 😊

That baseboard heater by the tub looks bit unsafe

I’m with you on changing nothing, just fix the damage.❤️Such a waste of money going on in Trudeau country.

Hey Noah, I've been watching your videos for a couple months now. I live in Nova Scotia where we also have many abandoned and forgotten homes. I understand about not wanting to draw unwanted attention from the neighbours, it's too bad they were around preventing you from checking out the balcony. That basement was so very interesting, especially all the colour coordination. Was that paint on the doors to match, or did they wall paper them too? The room with the surf motif painted on the wall was epic. Weird, but awesome! I too would live there in a heartbeat, so gorgeous but so very sad to see it left like that. Those stair planters were fantastic too! Thanks for sharing this one. It was fantastic! :)

Bet that washer and dryer still works. They don’t make them like they use too!!! BEAUTIFUL home!!! Pinks were the thing in bathrooms.

Yo! I love your videos but you need to study up and learn the terminology and the actual eras the fixtures are from. They aren't all "80's". People appreciate a deeper description of what your trying to show them. Great stuff tho. Not trying to be a butt. Rock on!

How many dollars home is this and what's place this please anyone tell me 😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🏻

Dude that place is hideous. I would say 1980’s and houses during that period were usually slung together

Oh my goodness I love this house Noah. The sun room with a kitchen. I would cook and eat it there everyday .It is a beautiful home. .Thank you for another awesome home. Be safe don't risk your health with that black mold. God bless you ., 🙏

Great house, Noah. Except for the mold and the purple paint. What a shame tear it down for something newer and much less attractive. Thanks, Noah

Unfortunately, so many cool old places get razed so a new one can be built, I know when I lived in Southern Florida, razing grand old homes with character, were razed without a thought, so some wealthy person could build a new one, and then when they were done, it was rare they ever even lived in it. It almost seemed like a hobby, like decorating a doll house when someone was a child , and then they were bored with it three days after they were done . Of course not all wealthy people do that, but it seems pretty common. I’ve seen some beautiful historicic Mizner homes, demolished, so some rich person could play house , until they were bored with it three days later..

That is a fantastic house! I love all the details and flowers, the birds, and the light fixtures. So sad that it flooded. It has a lot of originality. Thanks for the tour !

That home has ornate, detailing and intricate design. You don’t see things like this in modern homes, 😔 nostalgic. Can appreciate the craftsmanship. A shame.

Wow really enjoyed seeing this unique home in a beautiful setting. I would LOVE being on the water!! The views, just the vibe of the waterfront. Would love to spend chilly afternoons soaking in the sun in the sunrooms with a good book and a hot cup of tea. So many unique details in the design of the home. I really like vintage light fixtures and there were many unique ones here. Wish I could somehow save all of them and open a vintage lighting shop someday. If walls could only talk what would they have to tell us. I’m sure they’d be saddened by impending doom. What’s wrong with people today that they just want bigger newer and more expensive and most times boring.

This house is soooooo nice! And the lakefront is awesome. Who wouldn’t want this. Glad you could explore! 😊😊😊

In the Basement it Not Wallpaper, it's Been Painted 🧡🥰🧡

❤❤ love this house

The curtains in the kitchen are not are not nice for a kitchen

Awsome place I would not change a thing either very cool 😎👍 explore

I hope someone sees this and decides to renovate and not treat down.

Digging the Johnny Tsunami Room!!

Hate to break it to you but the house is buttugly

I'd keep the house the way it is AND build the infinity pool. That big yard out back against the lake has serious potential, maybe some gradens, fountains, gazebos etc, but the house itself doesn't need to go, it's rad the way it is! (obviously patch up the water damage)

As a poor kid of the 80s: this house would stay as it is except with new appliances.

That’s one nice house WOW

GHOST IN THE ROOM 23:58

Maybe the house is in foreclosure? The house looks like it's from the mid 70’s given it's floor tile design, swag lights in the kitchen, curtains, counter top and huge rectangular light in K.

I see alot of this...why is that? Who has possession of these type places ? The banks? The city? The family?i'll have it if nobody wants it...Lakefront property...beautiful

A great explore, Noah. 👍🏻

I can’t imagine paying that much for a house and then tearing it down and building another multi million dollar house.That must be one heck of a piece of land.I know it’s not because of the water if they’re putting in a pool.I guess 30-40 years from now my grandchildren will be watching a new episode of abandoned multi million dollar homes.

Wow, this place is amazing! If I owned it I wouldn't change a thing, I don't think. Love all the wood and stonework, especially that stone fireplace. Love the sunroom too, overlooking the lake...wow! Too bad the basement was flooded at one time though. It would be a major undertaking to clean up the black mold, etc. Thanks for the tour, too bad it will be demolished.

I love the older homes, they were made better. I say real wood. today they just slap the houses up, no character at all. I love the ceiling with wood too. Everything today made cheap, back when I was young we had the old ben alarm wind up clocks & today made out of cheap plastic.

They didn’t build houses back then, they built works of art. It would be a crime to demolish it. 🥺✌️

No. What's unbelievable is that even though it's been left to rot, no one can come claim it without someone complaining or calling cops. What's unbelievable is man's ignorance that you'd rather let the place rot into dust than let a homeless person or family try to make it work. You'd rather keep the place available to be sold forever with no hope in doing so rather than let someone get some use out of it for free. That's what's unbelievable. To me anyway. Obviously there are other abandoned places that aren't in such good shape.

That is an awesome house! I agree with you, it's one of my favorites so far! Great video and thanks for sharing your explores!

Absolutely love this one and would live there after fixing it up. I hope that all the etched windows and all that beautiful wood will be salvaged but I would live in that huge sunroom if it was mine.

It's a shame the house had a remodel because the way the house is inside is not indicative of a house that age. It looks like someone upgraded it in the 1970s and changed out a lot of the original features. I like the original features in a home that has never been restored. The people who purchased the property could do an extensive remodel and turn it back to its original glory. The outside still looks quite original to the home, which is very cool. It's a shame people don't appreciate history as reflected in these majestic historical homes. I find historical homes are far more beautiful and in a totally upgraded way to the modern mansions.

Hi Noah Its night time in Australia when you get my comment I can not get over how beautiful and stunning that home was and right next to that beautiful lake it is a shame that a home like that has to be knock down to make way for something modern but thanks for a great show around of this lakeside home

You won't find any Chinese made shit in there! Most things were still made in the US back then. 🇺🇸

😊Very nice find. I dont understand tho, why there wasn't a railing when you went out a 2nd floor bedroom door to a roof top? Thanks for this beautiful find. Sad that the basement flooded for the last owners. 😔

How cool is it that you got to see this video of the home you and your family once lived in. It's also cool that your parents had your home built. They had good taste. ❤. Glad to hear that you had good memories there. God Bless. 🙏

I love this beautiful house!!! So unique!! 💖💖💖💖💖

I loved that beach house that was one of the coolest and the best I've seen! Thanks Noah for your dedication and all your great videos!😊

I think this house's land value to house value ratio became out of range, and that caused the demolishment. If this is at Chicago gold coast lakefront, the building lot alone would cost that much, and the house itself is out of date and deteriorated without much value. Yes, it would make sense to rebuild a new luxury house that matches the location value.

This house is an absolute marvel. A lot thought had been put into it. Its a gorgeous home. Thank you for taking us on the tour of this beautiful home.

Being that it was flooded and all the mold is the reason they are tearing it down which is sad but I would sell the cabinets, light fixtures and so on before tear down so that useful items are not going to the landfill and they go on to another life. Thanks for the tour and next time wear a mask, shoe protection and gloves in a mold situation...

Who doesn't like their salad tossed every now and again?!?!😂😂

This house is huge but for me it is very outdated. Maybe because I lived through that era. Lol

What lake is that I be suprised I'd that's lake ontario it's so clear

I like it is nice home but,i sad because no people home.so many people's dreams House.

Noah, have you ever had previous owners or family of owners say yeah we saw her house on your channel thank you?

Good evening, Noah this is absolutely cool and amazing place. They don't have to knock it down just renovate. The back sun room could put a pool off that and court to one side with a amazing dock for their yacht Lol great find.

I would love that and I’d have a pool in the backyard even with the lake lol

I agree with you about the kitchen. It looks really cozy

Love this mansion. I would love to live there it is so beautiful.

Nice house and in an awesome place! I love the stone archway and the 80’s style of the whole house! Would be an awesome place to live.

Prime real estate for the discerning ghost

My favourite colour lol the bathroom

That's not wallpaper , it's feather painting, you use feather dusters. Beautiful house. Thanks for sharing.👍😃

How sad .. is such a beautiful place

It’s a lovely place. I would have to change the kitchen and bathroom though. It is sad it’s being demolished, I wonder if the mould has anything to do with it. I have heard that once you have mould, it can be difficult to get rid of totally. I suppose the only good thing is, that the new owners are going to rebuild in its place, and it’s not going to be replaced by several homes on one plot. Hopefully they will build something unique, which if then abandoned, you can view in a few years time. The price was expensive, considering your neighbours are right next to you, but I imagine you are paying for the lake view.

To bad that they will take the house down

Very cute! And simple.

I find 80s the ugliest design era

They had a boy into surfing

I know you said it was being demolished but do you know if it’s going to be salvaged first? There is so much that could be saved. It’s a shame to think so many cool features would be wasted when they could be salvaged.

I can’t get over he keeps saying 50 degrees is hot ☺️ I’m in the Midwest and it gets cold but 50 isn’t warm to us ❤️ lol

I was ready to say I'm going to start a GO FUND ME to help me pay for the house.........until you got to the basement 🤢 Other than the obvious i wouldn't change a thing. Well maybe those planters on the staircase only because my cats would have those plants destroyed lol

ontario? i spot a tim’s cup ☕️

Beautiful house Noah.

It is elegant! With all the stained glass and stone accents! Beautiful. I had a bidet in my house.....toilet didn't work, bidet gone now toilet works. Bidet lives under the bathroom sink now.

again that vw shirt awesome😍

I live in a shack compared to this spacious home. I've seen more kitchens with beautiful cabinets that probably aren't going to be reused. Cabinets I only dream of. My 50 year old home still has the same old crap. To think of what it costs to remodel, my heart breaks.
