Abandoned Mansion with Tennis Court & Pool (Bankrupt tennis player??)

[@copedipper7654]

I love these videos, it does make you wonder what happened and why were these nice homes abandoned? Why weren't they resold? Sad to see such a waste!

[@danf3937]

Cope Dipper 76 developers buy the land they probably offered the owner twice what it was worth happens all the time

[@Silveradoman61]

Dam shame you could tell this was a really nice house at one time. The problem is the land under the house is worth more than this place.

[@tabithathomas8632]

I love the black and white theme all through out the house!

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

agree!!

[@pandorasbox0313]

Very cool video thank you. Still kills me how some people have to destroy what they find. Seems like it was a really nice house at one time. I was hoping you would have looked at some of the books downstairs. I also agree the checkered flooring was kind of cool, not my style , but still kind of cool. I wish I knew more of the history of the house but still glad you don't give its location so more idiots can destroy it further . I like your work keep up the great videos.

[@Leslie537]

That house was absolutely beautiful. So sad it had to be wasted.

[@karenlindsey5988]

It's so strange to see the kitchen in the basement! I had already seen this house from another urban explorer but u did so much better! I love how u keep the camera rolling and let us do the entire walkthrough with you and see the layout of the house. I'm dying to know tho....what was to the left side when you first walked in the front door? Closets? Just guessing.

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

ya just a closet

[@ethanminnie]

Karen Lindsey there was a closet,a bathroom and the hall to the garage

[@annv1169]

lots of italians in the greater toronto area, they all have basement kitchens.

[@sheapiland8779]

Wow, this was once a gorgeous house. What a shame the developer wants to tear it down (although from the looks of things, vandals have pretty well taken care of that for him).

[@dawathabrown22]

wow this house has sooo much potential

[@annv1169]

not worth it, land is worth so much

[@chungangela759]

You did a great job. I'd like to see more of your vids. Thank you for sharing.

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

Thanks, I have some Colabs coming out with Exploring with josh & Danny

[@bonniekaye]

So awesome! I love the flooring and the huge deck! Thank you for sharing this! Beautiful! :-)

[@trinaball4258]

Another great find! Sad to hear its going to be demolished for Condos!! I liked the floor!

[@shannonfisher3654]

I sure hope they utilized the many things they can re use in this house...such a waste if all they did was destroy everything...great cabinets, lights, windows not broken, flooring...wow... Thanks for the great tour...

[@sarazorz]

The hole in the floor "sewer" is a sump pump. Pumps water away from the foundation.

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

thank you

[@Terri5101]

I was also going to say built in vacuum system

[@matthewwilliams2599]

the quality of your videos are awesome.

[@karenquick8737]

Thank you! So sad to see that it will be destroyed soon. Probably already done now. What a gorgeous place, but sure would take a lot of money to get it running and keep it running, but what a joy to wake up to that every day!!

[@ethanminnie]

Karen Quick it was demolished on November 11th

[@karenquick8737]

So sorry about that, but thank you. I don't like to see things wasted. = (

[@happyinharned9583]

karen quick pleae tell us all you know bout it.

[@jonholt5073]

Definitely seems much larger on the inside than on the outside...looks like it was a nice house at one time that was just left to rot...too bad it's not there anymore cause it could be restored to its original condition.

[@simplymeconnie4003]

Such a shame that such a beautiful home is being torn down. 1980's decor or not, I loved it!

[@marthaaguilera2443]

Wow what a shame ,,why is this house even abandoned,,,its looks like it was so beautiful,,,love the shiny floors,,,nice video

[@heywood62]

Sad to see places like this torn down for condos especially. The floor was great, was it marble?

[@annv1169]

not a condo tower, low rise townhouses.

[@samilt13]

I love this house, the entrance way flooring was beautiful. This house had great potential. So sad..

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

i liked this house also...so nice but your right so sad its gone

[@mohawk14616]

Now that is how you explore a house! Great job. Consider me subscribed.

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

thanks

[@pinkyackerman677]

Someone did this house too, when it was done there was a sleeping bag in the pool house and a bag of fresh fruit, apples and stuff and shoes. I assume someone was squatting in there at the time but, gone now. The person that filmed this said the same that it was gonna be torn down.

[@louisaloi9178]

Wow,what a waste must not have cared given the level of vandalism done there and apparently the time for vandals to get in and do the damage shown in vlog.Thanks for the glimpse up north. 👍 From post industrial apocalypse Ohio,USA 🇺🇸

[@HarveyParsons1975]

Carlo Paolozza when u went that small room in the basement where the hole in the floor was that's where the sump pump went

[@TSparklesBrite]

This was a beautiful home at one time. Love the checked floors. It is a shame how people always go in and destroy everything. I love the editing on your intro and at the end of your video, did you do it yourself? Tfs! ☺

[@judyjsmail]

This was a beautiful house the flooring is beautiful love the closet space!!

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

the flooring was nice i like it

[@tabithathomas8632]

why are they demolishing this house? it could be fixed up and resold! waste of money to just tare it down!

[@Unfavored08]

Judging by the widespread presence of mold, it looks like it has been abandoned for awhile. Remediation costs can be high and if you have the money to purchase a house like this, you have the money to build what you want and not have to settle.

[@malindamooradian5664]

If you watched the video, he said it was to make way for condos!

[@annv1169]

land is at a premium in toronto, so any big land on a main road is subdivided.

[@tamararohlin9292]

Wow. the flooring was definitely eye catching!

[@ethanminnie]

Was the neighbors house empty too? And judging by the backhoe sitting there, it probably won't be there much longer

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

Yes it was also empty that video will be up soon also

[@MIrroooo]

Why are you breathing like that through the video lol? But none the less great video you earned another sub.

[@sharonwolfe5210]

Chase Brooks He's had a little coughy type thing going for a minute now... Maybe time for some respirators since you're encountering so much mold...

[@nozoto]

Nhm, this brickwork suburban house looks unassuming from the front side, but it was certainly the best place to live with opulence without drawing too much attention. I have never saw checkered floor like this, representing a wind rose at the center. While it seems to be no Craigdarroch, the wall panels ornamented with neo-victorian woodwork adds a tasteful touch inside. It must have had allure back then. I would have been infinitely grateful if someone donated me this Rosewood bookshelf at 3:41 It's of exquisite taste, even though the glass work is a drab touch which would need fiery crimson and leaf green pieces to entice look more... I don't think the former owner of this place was a pro tennis man. A self respecting one wouldn't install Basketball hoops on his court. I guess he used to be an amateur sportsman with a fondness for both of these. It's a shame this place is going to be torn down. I do wonder what happened though. I am intrigued by these police lines in the area at 9:27

[@vlrissolo]

this doesn't look abandon. seems they packed up and left. it looks like a builder bought the property. I'm sure the previous owner got a pretty penny! the floors alone are worth thousands. my guess is they will sell everything they can before destruction. the doors, tubs, sinks trim, often even the brick, on and on. there are companies who pay to go into homes that are ready to be demolished and strip it down for a fraction of what they can sell it for, but they are skilled in removal, unlike the contractor who will build on the property....hope that made sense..

[@clairefunnell8481]

Hi. Thanks for the tour. I'm not sure about this one. Not sure I liked it. Is this natural decay or did the vandals hit it? Good sized property though. Condos, poo!

[@louisaloi9178]

I get it,that & neighboring house sold for redevelopment.However what I don't get is that salvage co.DIDN'T get to strip out high end stuff OUT of the house after previous owners moved out what they wanted.Plenty of modern,useful things left to be repurposed elsewhere @ least it's that way in Ohio.Hard to believe it would be any different in Canada???

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

the developers didnt care, they just see the end line when the condos are done pretty much

[@jeandra2]

So another lovely home making way for ugly condos. Why?

[@donnadreyer2580]

For a house that big,the pool wasn't nothing to write home about.why don't they restore the house and flip it ? Why tear it down ?

[@judywood6995]

I've really have gotten into watch these video's. What I don't understand is why all the good woodwork, doors, etc. are removed to have it sold!!??

[@kidistight]

I think I understand what you are saying, however think of it as developer. Do you want to try and fence all that stuff or just destroy the house and put up your condos. Besides how much could a developer really get versus the time involved in it.

[@nikkifix7768]

If a bank cant sell a house or building, it will try to recoup some of the loss by having salvage companies bid money. The highest bid usually wins. The salvage company will go in and remove cabinets.....granite countertops....appliances....fire place mantels....ornate wood carvings, light fixtures.....fancy doors....usable tubs, sinks, toilets that the salvage co. will reuse in other properties. Some companies will sell the items and others will personally use them on differ jobs their working on. Plus usable stuff out side like fencing, statues..etc. Once the house is bull dozed and the land is cleared then the banks able to sell the plot of land. My house is full of beautiful things(out of my class range) becuz my bro-in-law has a salvage co. and let me and hubby have whatever we want as long as we did the work to remove it. We added $65,000.00 in architectural value to our home. Salvage yards are great and you can get amazing deals if you look. U might have to restore/refinish the items yourself ....but it will be to ur liking tho.

[@steve19745]

id have given 4000 just for that floor it would look good in the entrance to a 7000 sq ft place im building

[@coolrayfruge]

Very sad to here they're tearing down this place. really nice. With the exception of what some dumbass vandals did to it.

[@TheKeeperMadz]

Now I know what black walls look like and I love it.

[@upalevelproductions]

great find dude i like the pulp fiction briefcase 👍

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

:)

[@randyn923nichols4]

They need to flip these places & resale them instead of destroying them.

[@morgansword]

Dang.... its brick outside, sheetrock and paint inside. Just the banisters in that "condemned shack"... the cost alone is more than I make a year on SSI. It would work me to death but what a way to go

[@bobbijogalatowitsch4980]

Library/ Office is what it looks like. I wish u could find out what happened to these mansios, why would someone leave such an awesome place? Homeless people would love it there.

[@garyjones4082]

Whats a mansios???? 🤔🤔🤔🤓

[@cuddleycabin]

the floor was nice digged the video.

[@ltraxler6708]

it looked like a beautiful home the checkered floors kinda make me dizzy lol. why are they tearing it down? great vid loved it

[@sassysue6472]

Probably a sump pump. What a shame such a beautiful house is being torn down for.......condos! Yuck. That house probably still had a mortgage. Hope they got enough to pay it off.

[@ethanminnie]

This in the gta?

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

yes

[@ethanminnie]

+TheCyberRealm can I get a general area? Or could you pm me the location? I've got a good one I could share with you

[@pl833]

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

thanks

[@lmonnette4037]

I am curious....do they salvage anything? They could donate sinks, doors, banisters, cabinets, etc to Habitat for Humanity! Just a terrible waste of they don't.

[@jetsonjoe]

why is it a shame...better to have more housing for more people than a few rich people...who obviously cannot pay their bills...shame

[@ethanminnie]

jetsonjoe can't pay their bills?? The same people owned this house since it was new in 1981. The only reason it was demolished is because a developer bought it and the neighbors house to build a subdivision of townhouses.

[@sharonwolfe5210]

If you dont know it cant be explained to you...

[@chadharmon5716]

What a crazy waist of resources

[@JayEMGetsFit]

Are they knocking down that other house next to it also??

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

Yes both have been demolished already

[@19jenh82]

compared to most abandoned homes this one didn't look that bad to fix.

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

this was in decent shape it someone were to buy and repair it....but it has now been demolished :(

[@annv1169]

no reason to fix it. it was sold at the owners free will to a developer.

[@evolution8662]

I sure don mind having any of these mansions...so long they are not haunted.....

[@Ladyk1487]

omg why tear that down! you could easily just fix that place up! its in good condition compared to other abandoned houses!

[@annv1169]

because the land is worth a lot. it wasn't never abandoned. owners moved out, and this was before it was demolished.

[@jeffwillis6071]

I want to see one of these videos where the narrator doesn't whisper,instead he screams at the top of his lungs describing the mansion.

[@PurrZombied]

Jeff Willis that would be awesome lol 😂

[@eratoisyourmuse659]

Jeff Willis Gilbert Gottfried?

[@morgansword]

At 12:05 U said "cool factor of 10 and I see 20 men/women (crew) working all week long, year round for maintenance. BUT.... I have a jealous factor of 20 just to own it. I say that and can't pay the taxes on even just the tennis court. Damn why does the money always seem to float to the other end of my "Gene" pool when it came to money

[@dennisrhodes1844]

When big developer's want something they just make offers that no one can refuse, They will make Millions off the condos.

[@Bibi87777]

How much does this cost in the usa...? Ty

[@aarynpresley3294]

That place could be Fixed up...That's just a waste knocking it down.

[@garyjones4082]

The lands been sold for condos.....all worth more than the house.....

[@neobow1]

How do you find these places!!?

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

drive around and keep my eye open, and I know some trusted explorers :)

[@michellecrippen2966]

Carlo Paolozza If I’m not mistaken is this in Virginia? Not going since it’s obviously been torn down. Just curious.

[@TheKeeperMadz]

Some days I wonder what the architects are one because some of these make zero sense.

[@kimk8365]

what was the police line tape from?

[@christianehuber1145]

I like this floor in the entrance hall

[@josephkerns8915]

How do you find these places?

[@penelopelopez8296]

It must have been amazing at one time.

[@SBuchan]

Looks like Newmarket, ON Mulock & 404?

[@samanthawest420]

People who vandalize evidently don't have enough money for their own artwork. They evidently believe they've got to destroy others property that doesn't belong to them. Evidently they don't have a life that improves the lives of others, so they're destructive, juvenile!!!

[@analuciaalbaino1145]

Como era linda essa mansão...Carlo

[@sweetcaress50]

why do realtors or whoever let these properties get run down its a shame

[@constancesemone9417]

What was the police tape up for?

[@kathystokes4781]

OMG, WHY ARE THEY TEARING THEM DOWN, SELL THEM , DAHHHH

[@annv1169]

because the land is worth millions. they are tearing them down to subdivide the land up and convert it to townhouses.

[@llndadischer7689]

Tennis court with lights for night time.

[@Rangersplash94]

What's with the police tape by the door?

[@melissawo4672]

That's a sub pump u were looking at

[@timothyjskotek1886]

it's really a shame when they go abandoned?

[@jasonbennett9149]

That was a nice house..why the tear nice things down...but when u walk in who punch and ripped the walls...and the camera man breathing heavy walking up and down the stairs..um

[@EndofUSA]

Clearly this house had been ransacked after it was left unguarded.

[@Carlopaolozzayt]

yes it was

[@johnroe1874]

that is not a mansion at all....

[@jeffwillis6071]

well excuse me would you please pass the grey-poupon.oh dear I seem to have gotten a nose bleed :-$

[@johnroe1874]

compared to a normal house, it isnt.....

[@ethanminnie]

Your right, it's just a big house
