New York Stockbroker's $8,100,000 ABANDONED Mansion | NO ONE Wants To Live Here

I agree I would remodel it on you and refurbish it to get rid of something like that I guess you could say I kinda like the old stuff normally better than the new stuff that they make anyway

[@ismaelrivera3394]

The kitchen floor is water damage so there’s a leak somewhere in there either the fridge or the dishwasher. If you look at the discoloration, you can see that water damage you’re coming through the windows or something or what I told you before you got it be more observing and say what it is.

[@ismaelrivera3394]

There you go that’s the water damage in the ceiling, but believe it or not that was damaged all the wood on the floor in the kitchen in the little family room there

[@wendyrocchietti7580]

People kill me tearing down old homes instead of updating and remodeling. I understand its expensive but if you have the money to tear it down and build something else you have the money to redo it. This place is gorgeous. Thanks for showing us.

[@jamesnylan]

It is erasing history, and it hurts.

[@Whitstik1]

I hate how we as Americans tear everything down! This home is an architectural masterpiece. It would be almost impossible to build this today. Most builder lack the know how and craftsmanship to make homes this quality, think about it. This home was built in the 40s and it’s still standing even though it hasn’t been kept up. It’s so sad. I wish someone would just buy this and restore it to its beauty.

That small little kitchen in between the large kitchen and dining is called the service area. I worked for a multi millionaire that had the service area kitchen too. It's used to store fine China, crystal and silver and for service between courses during formal dining parties. These owners have staff of 5 per day and upto 15 staff for large formal parties. It's a lifestyle I witnessed that few get a taste of. I love your videos Big Banks! Keep them coming.

[@GuantanamoBayBarbie3]

I also worked as the housekeeper for a multimillionaire family, and got to work at some very special parties. I later worked on a billionaire's estate in the home of his sister. Those were two very different experiences. In the latter, I came away with the realization that despite all their $$$$$$$$$$$, I was much more content and satisfied. I felt sorry for the sister's kids. They had everything money could buy, but precious little love and attention. The nannies did their best. The other family would never do nannies. They were extremely family oriented, and the entire large extended family lived in the same neighborhood until the daughters married and moved. They were very good to me.

I just wanted to put out a warning ⚠️ be careful of mold in these houses that you visit. You should have never went down into the basement of this house. The reason that I say this is because I have a lung disease. Just found out. It's called restrictive lung disease. I don't even know how I got it. And as many places that you visit without wearing a mask you are most definitely putting yourself at risk. So please be careful. I just want to thank you for sharing these beautiful homes with all of us. It's very exciting to see how nice the house was at one time. And remember to keep yourself safe on these explorations. Your friend, Take care, Bonnie ❤❤❤😊😊😊

@cristinhopkins2748 - When it’s being demolished, I hope st least, they advertise for people to come and get what they want eg kitchen cupboards, flooring etc. I hate the idea of it all going into a skip.

[@nancyloomis3046]

Couple more comments: You mentioned that the paint that's peeling/cracking may be lead paint? I don't think so. Remember that the house was updated by I guess the last owner? That's evident with the beautiful updated kitchen high-end appliances (that's my fave room) and appearance of some of the other spaces. The orange paint that's peeling and cracking a lot is I think a more modern color. I think the peeling, cracking of wall paint there and in other areas and even the heaving of the floor boards in the kitchen and other areas is likely due to big swings in temperatures bc there's no hvac system functioning in the house for so long...and maybe excess moisture creeping in too. BTW: The built-in stainless steel container thing you said you didn't know what it was that's branded "Therm-a-dor, (emphasis on the therm,) is, I think a warming oven of some sort. Thanks! It's been fun to explore this house with you!

16:21 that is a warming drawer to keep foods warm. Same drawer that is at the bottom of traditional ovens (that we mostly use for storage nowadays). I loooove all cereal and while I cannot have cows milk, i use almond milk. My favorite is corn flakes with a banana.

My guess is that the house was empty, and no one shut the water off. Pipes froze, broke and there was water leaking for a long time. Damaged the floor in the family room and kitchen, and ran into the basement. Never got anyone in to clean it up. What a shame! It's a beautiful home. Btw, no water damage upstairs...had to be a burst pipe.

[@cherylc4468]

CRAZY It makes me sick they would tear down a magnificent house like that for something more modern. I'll tell you I wouldnt have a modern house. I hate them. They all look the same, so esoteric, steral, no character. They dont look homey at all. Just insane they are going to tear down a house like this. I saw another video not too long ago of them tearing down one larger with more wood work than this one. That house should have been saved by the historical community.

I see bank foreclosure homes like this all the time. They usually do not keep up with the minimal property preservation for these high end homes. The loss severity is higher without preservation.
