Exploring a Lottery Winner’s ABANDONED $7,500,000 1973 Dream Countryside Estate | ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

[@cbetker5120]

That place is awesome! I could live there & wouldn't change a thing. Except the living room carpet. The 70's were great a great decade to be a kid in.

[@tigre7739]

Absolutely stunning!!🤩 I don't even remember when I've seen such a pristine example of a '70s custom Contemporary home! The architecture and rustic theme is fantastic! Every square inch is pure quality! There are so many incredible spaces in here to really pick a favorite, I loved it all ! Wonderful explore!! 🤟✌️

[@ellennewth6305]

What a stunning house, Ethan! Beautiful stone, brick and wood, lots of space and natural light. It does give off a very positive vibe!

[@Gregm-l9r]

I get the impression that you loved this 1970s home, Ethan . I agree that it was somebody's custom designed dream home and really something special in it's day. Thanks for another awesome explore . Well done 👏

[@christinemedina1640]

I grew up in the 1970’s this house is rustic but futuristic so cool would have loved growing up in a house like that.👍🥰

[@davidcesefske4417]

Wow, I love this home Ethan! Would love to see it fixed up and renovated!

[@kimgregory3509]

OMG !!! I'm in love with this house ❣️❣️ All the wood , I'm one that likes a lot of wood. Easy cleaning.. The shine on that wood is blinding, Awesome ❣️

[@Atomiclady-de6po]

Gotta love the 70s . Ethan this one is one of your best ! Your still the best nobody better!

[@kristihanson]

This house is so me! The best one you have explored. It is definitely 70's but I also feel modern Asian influence.

[@angelaporch2984]

You do such a great job of showing these homes. I really like that you appreciate the old houses

[@richard-jdesjardins1343]

What a fantastic home , one in a million ... except for the closet in front of the fireplace ... weird ! Love the wood , the stones , the lighting , definitely one of your best finds young man ! 👍

[@ethanminnie]

Thank you!

[@susanwilliams2506]

It's great that the people won the lottery but why build something that makes u bankrupt. Why not buy 1of the many mansions sitting empty and renovate that . Proberly cheaper and they could still be enjoying it . Take care Ethon

[@catherinebll]

In 1973, 'empty mansions' were not really a thing.

[@rebeccamoreno2155]

I did some googling they seemed to have owned and bread race horses. They had a few good years but many, many more bad years. That can help keep you wealthy (after all, they supported that huge property with live stock for over 30 years). But it's also incredibly expensive to maintain.

[@FromTheRuff]

pretty sure they lived their entire lives there so money was not an issue

[@deniseh122]

Outstanding house! Loved the glassed in hot tub room off the kitchen. The wood throughout the house was beautiful from floor to ceiling (literally). Sad seeing the floor in the basement rec room buckled - wonder what caused it. Another interesting explore.

[@louiswoodardjr9472]

Hi 👋🏾 ETHAN, I wanna wish you a very HAPPY 😊 THANKSGIVING! 🦃🦃🦃🦃

[@susanwilliams2506]

Our Thanksgiving was in October 12th

[@joanneferguson3401]

​​@@susanwilliams2506why do Americans think we Canadians have the same Thanksgiving! LOL

[@SBel65]

But a nice sentiment anyway. 😊

[@dazchu1899]

I absolutely love this house, so cool

[@imalittleeggroll]

I would live in that house, as is, TO-DAY! Nice one, Ethan!

[@SBel65]

Once you fixed the plumbing and re-installed all the electrical works. Crazy damage those copper hunters did ☹️

[@imalittleeggroll]

Worth it! ☺️

[@SugarWildflower-si4ox]

The wood is not compressed..it is all natural which is worth a fortune. The windows are all beautiful. What a gorgeous house. It has good natural vibes. It was a happy well loved house at one time. A work of art that should preserved.

[@JCisReal]

So much of this gorgeous house is salvageable. Thank you for the great showing!

[@ivyseal5161]

Ethan out of all the homes in Canada that you have Showen this one was out of this world and I loved everything about it if i had that home i would deck it out in the 1973 style

[@NecroAbsu]

Such a gorgeous home, thanks Ethan!

[@deniesestoddard9146]

I was a kid in the 70's and I miss it! Seeing your videos brings it all back, except I didn't live in a mansion, I grew up in a log home which is still in the family!!!

[@carlashepherd9362]

You are right Ethan, this place is incredible! I love this mansion! I wish my house was this spacious & beautiful! Love the front entrance & the kitchen! Awesome video as always bro! 👍👍❤️🤘✊

[@princess_1989]

Hey what's up Ethan✌️😊 hope you are doing well. The house looks really nice. Thank you for all that you do ❤

[@sandir9705]

Loved it! That huge stone wall was out of this world, it reminded me of a ski lodge with all the wood through out. I love the skylight windows too, my current house has those

[@kathy2214]

Love this house! I always thought that a courtyard would be so cool to have.

[@jacintadonadio1208]

What a trip down memory lane. Awesome place thanks Ethan 🇦🇺💜

[@jenniffer9034]

Hey Ethan Wow that old home is phenomenal! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 everyone

[@DawnBartell-zg7zi]

I absolutely loved this 🏠. I think this is my favorite by far 😊😊😊. Thank you Ethan!!!

[@chillysnowgirl8322]

This place was amazing! I love how they put the fieldstone on the outside wall at the front and then continued it beyond the house for a privacy wall, but it got even better seeing it inside the house 3(!!) times with huge walls of it. They probably found all if not most of that stone on site too (my grandparents had a hobby farm and there was tons of it on their property, some of the trees even look similar to the ones they had on their farm). The giant windows would make this place bright and cheerful in the winter time (look what they did for the basement; plus the horse etchings on the windows was so special 💗). I liked the brick wall and staircase railing too, they gave a bit of extra character (not that the house needed it because it was great everywhere). Another beautiful home (and property) that will be lost and it's heartbreaking. 💔😭 Thank you for sharing it Ethan. Stay safe and take care!

[@sedanosable]

Absolutely GORGEOUS! I bet that place outside was a koi pond...

[@andrewclarke3622]

This is one of your best Ethan👍

[@robertendicott-powers3099]

HOwdy and Happy Tgiving.............the white stuff.......well looks like stufff I used to use in my garage .......you would put it on top of grease and anything that had dripped on your garage underneath the floor.........who knows

[@SmilingLlama-qt4kq]

A beautiful home. I think it's strange that the hot tub was so far from a bathroom. Usually like to be close to one for changing and just so you don't drip all over. So the hot tub probably was an add-on. I thought the bedrooms, except for the master, were small, too; at least for the size of the house. That courtyard was really neat, though. Too bad it's being demolished!

[@stevenprice5921]

Loving the inside of this one Ethan.❤

[@suzannedickson7522]

I love it. Definitely one of my favorites. It's so sad that they tear these Homes down. Just leave it and build all your new homes around it!

[@sharonjohnsonh8224]

This is the very best abandoned house I have seen on here. Thank you

[@juliejackson962]

Hi Ethan .beautiful house ,I love it...70s rock best era ever ..free and easy ...love the outside sitting area with the waterfall ..absolutely stunning...thanks Ethan stay safe well and happy 💋

[@maramanicholas7820]

Wow, absolutely beautiful home.👍♥️🙂

[@mr.g6309]

I freaking LOVE THIS HOUSE. the hallway from the living room and basement hallway were my favorite. Thank you and Go DODGERS WE JUST SIGNED SNELL

[@margaretyoder4019]

Beautiful home. All the wood work is amazing. The unique features thorough out was amazing. Thanks for sharing 😊❤

[@ruthheisler4941]

The woodwork, brick walls, and rock fireplaces in this house are amazing. Love the ceilings in the hot tub area. Shame to demolish this piece of history.

[@johnbrennan9584]

Beautiful home. Thanks for showing it to us.

[@margarethensley251]

I love love that house. Everything about it is so so awesome i want to live there. Happy Thanksgiving

[@Unswerving1234]

A beautiful house with a lot of beautiful spaces in it! I love all the windows and woodwork! Always sad to see places like this not being lived in and used like they should be. But the problem with so many "dream homes" is that the people who share a particular dream after the original builders are gone don't have the money to buy and maintain it, while the ones who do have the money have different dreams that usually also involve different locations. And now the cost of living in this particular home is even higher since it will be an expensive renovation just to make it livable again after sitting empty for so long.

[@marneshiagilbert7860]

Happy thanksgiving Ethan and what a beautiful house this could be someone dream house just incredible

[@mel212115]

Hey Ethan, I know urban explorers don’t give out addresses etc, I’m in Australia 🇦🇺 & honestly had a dream about either this house or something pretty much similar, would you be willing to send the deets privately? Cheers Mel

[@proofisinthepudding2196]

Ethan what's up thank you for your amazing work this particular house I was absolutely in love with. One thing to note is there can be a lot of residual energy in the house and that can cause anomalies like your light dying even though I'm sure you charge it before you left. I looked up that name on the door it looks like that house was owned by a horse breeder and I think a politician he passed away in 2013. That's a beautiful house I really appreciate your coverage of it

[@geaj]

Damn, Ethan, you're killing with these mid centuries! Why is no one living in that! The stone and wood!

[@Susie-n1f]

wow! beautiful property! My favorite is the sun room with the hot tub, that's where I would be for sure. Thanks Ethan

[@jerroldmcley4347]

I agree best 70s house 🏠🏡 ever very cool 😎🆒

[@cherryspiker4426]

that is beautiful. thanks for sharing . ❤❤ stay safe love ya

[@jenniferwellman5311]

That closet in the front seems like an afterthought. I agree it doesn’t make any sense putting it there.

[@PearlMay-kb4gp]

I really enjoy your passion for the houses you explore . This is a really cool home . Being a teen of the 70's I can dig it . Thank you for sharing this huge farm .

[@darlenekuhn7626]

THANK YOU BLESS YOU! SHARED THIS OUT.

[@PamelaKratzer-wn7yq]

I liked the way the house had so much natural light.

[@kimgregory3509]

Love those purple benches/Seats

[@JRocker310]

What a lovely home. I really like all the woodwork and the stone work. Amazing! Thank you for sharing this find.

[@mikayla9146]

The total profit for Barlee Farms from horse racing was $695,918 from 2000-2013. That essentially means they were operating at a loss. Horses, trainers, jockeys, vets, feed etc cost sooo much. One race horse per year costs bare minimum $100,000, just to maintain and train. It was an expensive hobby, not a profitable business for them.

[@kathleen726]

What a cool house! Lots of very cool features! Sad that it’s left like that though.

[@martiewest59]

Love the inner courtyard area! The whole house is Amazing!!!

[@shannonadler5479]

🎉🎉 ETHAN, THAT WAS THE BEST 👌😁

[@peterdevries3651]

Awesome house man need to find one with a model railroad in it lol

[@1pokermom]

THIS HOUSE WAS TOTALLY UNREAL!!! THE WOODWORK AMAZING ❤GREAT FIND, WHAT'S UP ETHAN!!!

[@ScottBurbridge-m2j]

i see security cameras. i'm wondering if those are still active? i think the hot tub area was a add on. a very luxurious 1970's home. i imagine the copper has probably been stolen out of the home. it's unfortunate no one is renovating the home & landscaping.😢 my friend in Baltimore renovated a 70's home. he made the interior modern and luxurious. he also had landscapers renovate outdoors.

[@bernimiranda4424]

Absolutely Beautiful, Ethan Awesome 👍🏼 keep up the good work 🤗👑🇵🇷💕

[@fawnfredenburg5361]

Hello Ethan 👋I’m watching the great video now and thank you for sharing 👍❤️😎⭐️✨

[@donnabrown744]

I have been following you for awhile, really like your content and your excitement. Thanks for all your work 😊😊

[@jonholt495]

This is my idea of a dream home right here, love the spacious rooms and high ceilings and natural light, and the land! Too bad it's being demolished if it hasn't been already, could easily be fixed up and lived in again

[@Xavierxavou]

Bravo ! C’est une maison incroyable ! What a beautiful find ! Thanks !

[@ritagreen1540]

Great house wouldn't mind living there

[@LadyPositiveThinker]

Ethan, this is definitely my favorite, someone loved it! This is my Dream home! I would move to Canada for this house, there isn’t any part of the house I didn’t love! I can’t say what’s my favorite part because it all was a dream for me!!! Thank you so much for sharing this one… it breaks me that this beauty will b taken from us!!💔🥺😭 Keep exploring safely!!👍🙏💕

[@KateRomano-c3n]

What a stunning house!! I loved the wood and stone

[@lauraduplooy]

It looks like Barlee Farms was into breeding racing horses. One of theirs, Barlee Mist, won quite a few races from 1997-2001. Great explore!!

[@donnieracer]

Wow Ethan 🙀 Such beautiful wood work. Unfortunately the whole house would have to be re-wired and re-plumbed thanks to the scrapers. It would have to be striped to the studs at substantial cost. Thank you jerky scrapers 😠....Your the best Ethan, thanks and stay safe 😄Donnie

[@angelarowe3472]

Ethan, I just like to know how do you find all these unique, beautiful, extravagant homes? This one is very unique and very different in structure. They Definitely spared no expense in building this house that’s for sure. It never ceases to amaze me how much money people will spend on these homes and then just let them go but thank you for sharing you take care and be safe.🫶🏻❤️🤠

[@Hillbilly007-yd9gu]

Cool House. I enjoy your videos always a great job.

[@cherylposadas1497]

It is a gorgeous home!

[@kisharuiz5786]

Definitely this is one of the best house. I guess that you have in your channel. Love the woodwork the property looks amazing. It’s such a shame that is a abandon.❤

[@lisahunadi596]

What an awesome place! I would live here..the wood is gorgous!! Thanks for another fascinating adventure.. The stone work is amazing!

[@kimgregory3509]

The Bar Sink, you can remove the one side. So it makes a double sink.

[@latisaallen4257]

I know I'm a little late to the show, but it's not often you reveal too much information about a property you're exploring. I completely respect you for that. However, when I saw Barlee Farms, I had to search it. Not to find the location but rather to inquire about the property and if it was a training facility for race horses or a stable for the purpose of housing race horses. What I found is information on Bill Barlee. If I remember correctly, he passed in 2012, and lived quite a life. He was a wealthy tv host and politician, just to name a few accolades. I'm curious if you do your own research, since you are aware of the exact location, would you discover that is one of his properties. It's beautiful. I can imagine it in it's original glory. The only drawback, in my personal opinion, is the maze-style floor plan. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to your next explore

[@andrewclarke3622]

Im confused about the heating too. I see all of the thermostats for electric baseboard, but dozens of ginormours registers too🤔

[@suzannedickson7522]

Those registers are the central air. It looks to have been added after the house was built. That's the way they do it with base board heating.

[@andrewclarke3622]

Thanks. Cause I heard there was a type of electric heating called "Radiant Ceiling" or "Ceil-Heat". It was more apearent in the lower half of the house.

[@suzanneforasiepi3942]

It's a gem 💎 of a house 🏡 👍🏽💯

[@jonellbackman3352]

Love this house.

[@susiegordon-smith9161]

It’s a pity the lottery people couldn’t make it work. I loved this house. The architecture was amazing. I loved the house so much Ethan ❤

[@kathleenf8459]

I prefer the older houses with the large staircases but it was good seeing this one too .

[@kayelliott2410]

[@clairefunnell8481]

What a beauty Ethan. So much really nice woodwork. Bedrooms seem a bit small. Groovy!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂❤

That's the problem with some and most lottery winners they splurge on high end everything.. houses,cars ECT..give $$ money away and soon it runs out.

This house is gorgeous ! 😊
