Exploring Marilyn Monroe’s ABANDONED $16,500,000 1960’s Dream Mansion | UNTOUCHED SINCE 1962

Ethan, of the mid century houses you’ve explored so far this is by far the coolest. Everything from the pool at the start to the vintage bike in the garage to the bar in the basement and everything else in between screams retro 1960’s all over it but in a good way. It’s in actually quite good shape for its age and could be totally restorable. Love especially that sparking bathroom on the main floor with the mirrors; if that doesn’t say “Marilyn Monroe” I don’t know what else would. Even those 60’s intercoms are amazing and so ahead of their time. Definitely looks as though the basement had some upgrades in the 80’s but apart from that this house is a winner.

I grew up in a m.c.m. house it was 900 square feet, 3 bed one bath, a modest house my parents had built in 1962. It had a galley style kitchen, ceiling heat, wood floors, the dishwasher was one of those mom would roll out of the utility room and hook up to the kitchen faucet. My brother, parents and I lived in it until 1983, I miss that place.

It is an understated house as far as size for a Hollywood star but I think that massive houses were not as common in Mid Century Hollywood. The house that Monroe died in was very beautiful with great features but it wasn't huge by today's celebrity standards so her taste didn't seem ostentatious as it does now as far as Hollywood stars. I think the housing material shortage post WW2 curtailed people's demand for massive homes in the Mid Century. Great video. Thanks, Ethan.

New subscriber! I was typing out a reply and somehow got deleted, haha. Anyway, I was just saying how nostalgic this house makes me feel. My parents were of the same generation as MM, and the house I grew up in that they built in Ohio. My parents chose similar architectural and design elements. The slate floor in the entryway -- my parents had a black slate floor in their entryway and the long hallway leading away and down to the other rooms. They also had black and gold flocked wallpaper in the entryway and the one wall that led up the stairs. I loved all the little details, like the built-in bookshelves in the living room (I know she was a reader, and I am too). The wall of windows that looked out onto the nature and brought so much light in, and really, the abundance of windows throughout the house are something I also appreciate. Houses today are built like caves without enough natural sunlight. I really liked the unfinished or light stains on the wood elements in the home. The wood floors were so beautiful, everything was beautiful! So peaceful and calm. A lovely retreat from the real world. I wish I could live there! I can imagine how I would furnish and decorate, with teal blue velvet chairs and sofa, white floor length sheer curtains blowing in the breeze and light and dark oceanic and beach colors (which are my favorite!), and a nice art studio in one of those well-lit rooms. One can daydream, haha.

I love your videos. Thank you for your appreciation of all the old things. I love them too. Reminds me of my childhood in the 70s and brings back great memories.

[@elainew2230]

What a beautiful house. I hope whoever lived in it had a nice life.

[@KyriannaDodge14]

It is a very uniqie and amazing home. With all the research I've been able to achieve on Marilyn, this home was not built for her. She had just purchased her home in Los Angeles 2 years before her death. If there is evidence of this being made for her Ive yet to find it but it is beautiful for sure.

[@saradost5982]

There is either someone in that house with you or that place is haunted! I heard walking while you were in the living area not walking. I also heard sounds of things dropping too. That's some craziness!

[@lizlovestruecrime983]

That reminds me of a house the Manson Family would have visited.. 😢

[@GailMcl-t2n]

It’s been definitely kept up. Swept. . Has possibilities for renovation

I wasn’t expecting it to be in that great of shape. The second little house attached is probably a Guest House. I bought a mid century home in 2005. It was split level, has two fire places that covered the entire wall from top to bottom and left to right. The main bathroom as all original, Lavender tile, Lavender toilet, sink, toilet paper holder,tile on the walls in the enter bathroom, soap Holder, the Lavender, porcelain tub, was really very big. When I moved I wanted to take the bathroom with me lol

Your videos are always amazing. 💗

[@janyam1955]

I googled and she only had one house that was in Brentwood. She bought it 6 months before she passed

[@Zahnclassof95]

Oh my gosh when I saw the title of this episode definitely had to click on it Ethan all these houses have boys just a massive beautiful backyards I can't wait till you get us inside and see what it looks like let's go Ethan shall we❤

[@twobrokeguyz1214]

So strange, Ethan, that place does not look like it would have stairs inside of it from looking at it on the outside.

This is an Italian style home designed and built in the '70s and Marilyn Monroe had already died in 1962 so not impossible. And her last known home was in Los Angeles, California.

[@lindapoole2165]

As far as I know Marilyn's house in Hollywood was very modest where she died. How do u know it was her house?

[@katherinec3334]

I was in awe with the mirrored toilet, it must look spectacular with the lights on. Thank you for taking us along on your exploration of abandoned properties.

[@ivyseal5161]

what a great and beautiful 60s home It was the first time I have seen a urinal in a home you usually find them in restrooms of hotels and hospitals and shopping centers but never in a home but a great video Ethan and thank you and see you in the next one

[@randompixels6237]

That slate tile entryway is popular in my mid century modern neighborhood, built in the 50's. I've refinished mine in two diffetent homes. Lovely and durable slate tile.

"It's very Versace looking!" 😂😂😂 I couldn't hit "subscribe" fast enough!

[@fawnfredenburg5361]

Hello Ethan 👋 it’s so nice to see another great video from you 👍❤️😎

[@Disneylover024]

The BBQ hot dog smell could be mold. Be careful when entering old houses because some mold is bad. My ex boyfriend was in the hospital for two weeks because of mold.

[@robertladue7647]

Thank you Ethan. I loved your enthusiasm! 😊

[@wendyjohnston1943]

"What's up, guy's, times infinity. Lol. Funny😅

[@EllenLawlor]

Ethan you move your camera too fast. Gives me an upset stomach. I wanna watch your videos because you have really great content, but please don’t move the camera so fast.

[@2sweetcaroline]

I love your videos. It's so interesting to see these places. But, I wish you would pan your camera a more Slowly. Sometimes it's dizzying when you move around so quickly. Thanks again for showing us these houses.

[@jayway5226]

I never understand why these houses just sit abandoned, it’s a cool house. Wish we knew how long it’s been abandoned.

[@little_miss_vintage]

Hey Ethan I’m a long time subscriber and I remember back in the day you used to tell about your research and the history of some of these homes. Would love to hear how you found out this was supposed to be Marilyn’s home and the history behind it. Very awesome house, always love the mid century homes. Nothing like them!

[@amymiracle2467]

This is one of my favorite channels. Some of you all are just hateful, hateful people. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything and don't watch the videos. What kind of person wants to hurt another's feelings. Anyway, Ethan keep up the good work and thank you for sharing your adventures.

[@ethanminnie]

thank you!!

[@ReneeLibby-cv8vf]

Theses types are all over you tube. I don't understand it either. Civility has completely vanished.

[@amymiracle2467]

@@ReneeLibby-cv8vf I agree

[@priscillaarchibeque3113]

Thank you for sharing

[@Gena777-r95]

Well, they're within their right to speak up if they think something false is being shown, especially about such a famous person. This is not the home she lived in and not the home normally thought of when you say Marilyn Monroe. I thought the same when I saw the picture, until I heard what he said about the home being built the same year she passed.
