Millionaire Car Collector’s ABANDONED 1985 Dream Estate In The Middle Of Nowhere | WHAT HAPPENED?!?!

[@karenlpeery1308]

Gotta be the CLEANEST, COOLEST abandoned that's been shown in a hot minute.

[@Susie-n1f]

This place is stunning. So clean and well maintained!! Love the tiles, porch and fireplaces. Another great explore, Ethan!

[@PearlMay-kb4gp]

This is a home not just a house. It really gives off good loving vibes. The flow of the home is amazing and it definitely would be a shame if this home were to be destroyed. This has got to be one of my most favorite tours that you have done. Thank you for sharing this with us it was truly a joy to go through that home.

[@debbiestoyles1141]

This is an absolutely stunning home. That top balcony is amazing as well. They really need to save homes like this so others can make loving memories in it. Great find Ethan.

[@wing-it7596]

For as nice as the house was seemed a little plain in the bathrooms and Kitchen. The showers seemed like the cheaper insert shower and the counter top in the one bathroom looked kind of cheap, just didn't look as good as the rest of the house. Nice house and I would live in it just wouldn't know what to do with all the space.

[@Gsdmom]

WOWZERS! Beautiful home! That's an Appliance Garage under the cabinet in the kitchen - you could probably use it for storing bread and bagels too. We had an under the counter coffee maker in the early eighties. Unbelievable how immaculate this home is for being 40 years old! Great find!!

[@susanwilliams2506]

Love the large stone fire places . Beautiful house , just a little tweeking and someone could still live here . Thanks Ethan , take care .

[@dnorcal1]

Totally agree, my ex hubby was a contractor...A and B license...he could fix this in a jiffy!! Such a shame to take it down!! Stunning...enjoy your day!!

[@ratgirl13]

This old girl (the house not me) is a stunner! So well maintained and clean-love the style and colors, anyone could just about move in and feel at home in this one-glad you found it and made a video. 💙.

[@Flowersofromance6-fs4pb]

This lady in Manchester, UK loves watching your videos Ethan. These beautiful houses, so sad many of them are destined for the tip. I always wonder about the circumstances of them becoming empty and abandoned. Family illness, death, the 80s financial boom, endless money and fat mortgages all coming crashing down. So many human tales in each house. Keep up the great videos.

[@sherimunroe1370]

I love it. I would be right at home in the 80s style. The stone fireplaces made this explore extra special. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@lisahunadi596]

Ethan, this 80's house does not appear that it was lived in very much.. The kitchen looked brand new, the flooring in the room next to the kitchen with the tile i spect the owner had a breakfast nook(table with bench sittings) which was popular in the 50's & 60's.. the parquet floors exquisite. I really enjoy watching your explorations of these abandon houses

[@bricepierson3766]

Looks like it never got moved into. 🙂

[@isabelmarie8201]

Came to say the same about the breakfast nook!

[@clairefunnell8481]

I wouldn't remodel this beauty either. Wow Ethan, what a gem you have found. My favorites are that funky coffee maker and the pink bathroom. Pretty. Amazing house, best part is no stupid kids have been there. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@LoLa-OR]

With just a little TLC and few changes I could easily live there. The 80s were a good time for me and I like the aesthetic, for the most part. Great find, thanks for sharing!

[@Gregm-l9r]

This lovely custom built dream home is like a 1980s museum Ethan . So well built and looked after . Awesome explore Ethan 👌

[@davidcesefske4417]

Beautiful home Ethan! Thanks for the video!

[@donnadreyer4516]

You said that it is a 1980's House nothing has been changed, Some People love the Traditional Homes also the 1980's and will absolutely NEVER remodel, not all houses need modernized. Omg, I was in Love as soon as You walked in, That Fireplace and woodworking ! Absolutely beautiful!!! Someone has to be insane to leave that House. I'd move right in tomorrow if I had the means,only thing I'd change is, I'd install plush carpeting throughout the entire house, including the bathrooms and kitchen.

[@icantthinkofaname42080]

I'd live in the garage alone, lol

[@dnorcal1]

Me too😊

[@chadmark88]

That tiny garage door is probably for a golf cart or side-by-side. ( it would have to be a real small car to fit through THAT door ) I bet that separate, large garage was FULL of classic and exotic cars.

[@ellennewth6305]

This is a gorgeous house, Ethan. Love the spaciousness of the rooms and the matching curtains and wall paper. Thanks for sharing this fabulous place!!!

[@carlashepherd9362]

This house is gorgeous! I love it & love the layout! Love the kitchen too! Awesome video Ethan! 👍👍❤️✊🤘

[@princess_1989]

Such a beautiful home my favorite was the fireplaces and one of the bathrooms 17:54. I really enjoyed the video 💜

[@trinarednour5557]

What a gorgeous house! The family living there took a lot of good care of it! I would love to live there, to bad they are tearing it down. What a shame! Great find Ethan! Love it!

[@KrystalLioness]

Crazy weird and cool at the same time. Growing up in the 70s and 80s was fun and confusing, kinda like this house.

[@HollyPifer-o1t]

Love the house! So many memories of valances in my own first home! My adult kids still tease me about them. Thanks, Ethan

[@andrewclarke3622]

My parents had a similar stove, thiers was a 4 burner. The neat thing about it was the burners where cassettes. Meaning that you could swap them out for a grill or griddle. That house was in the same era. My parents built over the winter of 1981-82. We moved in, in the Spring of 1982. The house was in Michigan. I live in Los Angeles.

[@andrewclarke3622]

Thats what you get when your NOSEY!!😄

[@user-iamRobinV68]

Wow this place is move in ready. Just some clean up. Great find Ethan!😊😊😊

[@johnmiller8359]

What an amazing property! Even overgrown the grounds are beautiful and spacious. The house is one of the best I’ve seen. Interesting exterior, the interior is clean and smartly designed. A dream home.

[@princess_1989]

4:34 I take it the wasp nest is also abandoned with the house lol

[@hillbillyfabshop1062]

Someone needs to buy this and keep the 80’s Vintage Feel of it!

[@reneeg4817]

It sounds very close to a highway. That wasps nest was crazy big. Thank you Ethan for another great find

[@johnhaigler407]

Hornet.

[@crizzy8373]

It’s crazy how the kitchen so clean as if it had never been used before m!!!

[@SharonJones-ql8oy]

I like when Basements look like part of the house and Not a Scary Dungeon🪨🔗⛓️

[@johnbrennan9584]

Great house. The roll up door cabinet in the kitchen is, I think, for small appliances like, mixers , blenders, food processors.

[@cynthiacleaver9742]

Really cool house!! Nice find!! 💖💖💖💖💖

[@Hinchmankimberly0829]

I am in love w/ this house! So beautiful w/ charm and character. Thank you for sharing!🧡🏚🏘

[@tigre7739]

I absolutely love these time capsule homes also!! This is one of those rare pristine examples, and it is incredible!! I love the all the features of this gorgeous home, the brick , the arches the wainscoting, the oak doors at trim, and the amazing stone fireplaces!! The decor was awesome too, the beautiful tile, the pink carpet 🤩 Stunning property, exciting explore!! 💫🤟✌️

[@cherryspiker4426]

A dream house for sure . thanks for sharing . ❤❤❤ stay safe love ya

[@chillysnowgirl8322]

I loved about 98% of this house (& property)! From the cute floral wallpaper (my 2 favourite styles were in the kitchen & the room with the pink carpet), nice shiny wood flooring and a gorgeous staircase, those curved steps at the front of the house.... just allllll of it. 🥰The things i disliked were so minor that i'd move in and improve those later! My dislikes were: 1.The smoked glass in the light fixtures (they give off poor light at night; i'd replace with regular glass). 2.They made the front of the house all nice with the arches & curved steps and then put a huge square box of a garage beside it without even attempting to blend it in with the house, which is sad. 3. That fan that you loved. My parents had that exact same style in their dining rm for years and it's a b**ch to clean!There's 2 screws (one on each side) that twist in and hold each 'flower' on the fan. You have to unscrew them to take them off, wash & dry the flowers, then re-assemble and hope they're in tight enough so they don't fall and break. It was stressful! 😄4. I wish the kitchen had been a teeny bit bigger (it was still fabulous though; the appliances still looked nearly new for their age). Thank you so much for showing us all the little details in this one. For me, i'd say you win explore of the night hands down! Your award, sir!-->🏆😃 Thanks for sharing this gem!! (Don't break my heart by showing this one being torn down 🥺)

[@kathywood9602]

I don’t understand how such a beautiful well kept home doesn’t get on the market and sell!!!

[@alecs1196]

It DID sell, almost immediately after going on the market! This house is on the outskirts of Toronto Canada, one of the most "in-demand" cities to re-locate on this continent (even MORE so since Trump was re-elected!) The house, despite being well built, is dated, with too few bedrooms, but is on a very large desirable treed lot. It will likely be replaced by two or three modern McMansions. The reason it has sat empty for so long is due to the delays in getting planning permission to sub-divide the property, along with getting the variances required to replace this one storey bungalow with much taller 2 or 3 storey homes.

[@dnorcal1]

​@@alecs1196i couldnt agree more with your total assessment / comment...right down to trumpty dumpty...im in Phx AZ...being the resistance!! ..Sure sounds tempting in Toronto though! Hagd!❤

[@alecs1196]

@@dnorcal1 I'm not that familiar with Phoenix, but I spent two summers in Tucson in the early 80's, and there were a LOT of new white stuccoed "hispanic moderne" versions of this type of house in the ever spreading subdivisions spreading up into the foothills. I was back there for a visit a year ago, to find that a lot of homeowners hacked away and squared off the curved arched porches & entries, and did away with the excessive wrought iron railings and light fixtures (which I kinda liked?) to make their previous faux "hacienda" simply "contemporary"(Never understood why you guys don't build your houses with basements? You'd have a naturally cool rec room like this house has, without the need for A/C!?0)

[@KimmyLove6932]

@@alecs1196how much did this go for. Must have been a good amount

[@krissiet4718]

@@dnorcal1well if you don’t like a Trump, you probably don’t want to move to Canada! They love him there, like most of the world! There’s a small percentage that have been brainwashed my the US fake media! May want to open your eyes & start looking into things yourself. You will be very surprised when you turn your tv off what happens. ❤

[@jenniffer9034]

What an awesome property! It’s sad the original owner lost it! That was a huge wasp nest! I would have took it off! I’m not scared of such things! lol That is one of the nicest cleanest abandoned homes you have showed !

That smaller garage is for rider lawnmowers and snowblowers

[@donnieracer]

Ethan 👋This is beautiful and seems almost move in ready. Loved the Car Storage Building. It seems as though all the basements in Canada are flood, have been flooded or will be flooded. Water table must be just below ground level. I do love a basement. Thanks for a good look at the HVAC/ELEC. Take care and stay Safe 🤗Donnie

[@nancyweliczko9334]

Absolutely gorgeous home, so sad it is going to be torn down in the future, I would love to own it.

[@vernakniseley1136]

[@sandir9705]

Absolutely loved this one, I just want to move in and be in that kitchen cooking with the appliances that don't look like they were ever used. I really dig that coffee machine too! Massive garage, imagine those cars all lined up in there. Awesome fire places, everything was amazing in that house. ❤😮

[@garyg8036]

That 1:00 smaller garage door is usually for a golf cart or a atv / utv. Definitely not a boat.

[@danell5202]

Those are Old Spanish Arches from old Mexico 😊

[@alecs1196]

Actually, these are brick Roman arches from suburban Toronto. After World War II there was a huge influx of Italian immigrants to the city, many of whom were skilled masons, and this exact format of creating a front porch to look like a Tuscan piazza became the hallmark and standard style when these new Canadians built their own homes. Unlike the stuccoed hispanic versions you referenced, Italians always left the brickwork exposed to proudly show off their intricately crafted handiwork.

[@crl6355]

Ethan, you keep making me late for work, and it's all your fault! I have a hard time turning these off while I'm getting ready to leave! 😊 Your house tours are rather entertaining! Keep up the great work! 👍

[@kellymccay1881]

This is one of my favorite houses yet Love it Thanks!!!

[@Shettikka-s9v]

Massively Grand uniquely appealing beautiful ❤️ OMG 😳

[@brucebeamon5460]

Surprising and disappointing that this house does not have a NEW BUYER..Was it even ever put up for sale …? I think I heard ( correct me if I’m wrong ) you say in the beginning that it was taken by the government ? ( foreclosed ?) After 35 or so years 🤔 Seems as though it would have been paid off by then especially with it being a 1 owner house kept in EXCELLENT CONDITION ! I would probably change those flooring choices and the areas where the bathtubs were ( looks cheap but also in good condition ) looks like those aftermarket one day materials.

[@janetingacollins6409]

Maybe just sized by government for unpaid taxes

[@candygirl2030]

I always look forward to your Explores, outa all Explorers that I watch you Ethan I have to say are my 😍 Thank you for sharing this Beautiful house by tye way The 80's Rocked, even though I was born in The 70's we had the best everything.. Thanks again for sharing this Beautiful house...

[@downtown9451]

Stone is the best material. It is timeless, everlasting - at least longlasting, looks amazing with light, not flamable, clean.

[@elizabethprice4629]

This was a really great one! Wow

[@MarkB.-mo3lz]

Those intercom systems were cool and this one had lots of options. The close up of the one station shows it had "door talk", which meant that you could "answer" the front door from any room. The doorbell would chime throughout the stations when someone pressed the doorbell button on the front door station. This would have been handy in such a large house. You could call the master station, usually in the kitchen, and the master could call an individual room. You couldnt call room to room. Also, this one has "inside/patio talk" which means any station could answer a call from the rear patio. Other features were being able to play the radio/CD throughout the house and on the patio.

[@crystalmcmahon302]

What a beautiful and clean home. Love everything about it that kitchen looks like it’s never been used, who ever owned it took very good care of it. I hope someone buys it. It would be sad if they demolished it. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home. Have a great weekend 😊

[@darren6951]

That isn't a formal dining room, that is called a music room. That is why the enormous echo travels down the entire hallway and down the stairs. The room off the kitchen is your dining room and the nook with the tile is for a breakfast nook.
