Just found your channel and find it fascinating! Unfortunately, this particular home, in the Lehigh Valley, PA area was built in 2000 for a husband and wife unrelated to Ms. Swift. It was likely purchased with the proceeds of the physician wife, who had her PA medical license permanently revoked in 2016. I practice in this general area, and it was a big local story at the time. The wife, a DO ( doctor of osteopath ) was sentenced to 7~ years in prison circa 2016 for running a long time opiate pill mill, defrauding Medicare/ Medicaid, killing one patient, attempting to smuggle narcotics into jail during her original trial and having a very serious drug issue herself. I wish I was joking, but sadly I’m not. I believe the property sold for ~$450K in 2019. Keep up the fascinating tours please. 👍
Imagine how successful this place could be for a rehabilitation center. Middle of nowhere. Beautiful area huge house to accommodate people in need. They could fix the whole place up for free while working on recovering
Comment from another video about the same house Andrea 2 years ago This was not Taylor Swift's nor her parents home. I lived across the street on Brighton Court for 10 years. The home was built in 2000 and exchanged hands 3 times. It was recently purchased in November 2019 for $451,000. It is in foreclosure. This home was an eyesore for my neighborhood for years. So no this is not Taylor Swifts parents home.
Firstly, Your mannerisms and explore venues are always respectful and credible, there's many different TH-cam channels and yours standout. Having your properties correct history is completely commendable and rare. You'll be remembered, but legitimately respected. Great work Banks!
Taylor doesn't really care about those who are without fortune and fame, and are struggling to get by in life. Regarding this abandoned mansion; it's just a bit ("chump change") of her money: wasted. No big deal. I believe that the thought of homeless people and their plight was not ever on her mind, when she backed out on completing the construction of this mansion; leaving it standing. It is irresponsible of her, and sends a message to those less fortunate: "Ooh, look at me!" All she cares about is you purchasing her concert tickets and albums. Ensuring that she stays RICH!! 🤑💸💸💸💸 Cut and dry.
My Aunt and Uncle lived in a 10,000 square ft mansion in Toronto and it was over $70,000 a year just to keep the place running not including a mortgage...Ppl don't realize just how incredibly expensive it is to keep these places going. Stay humble ppl and live with what you need! ✌️
@@SeaFlower38 It was really nice, the entire foyer was marble and the chandelier hung 27ft high. It had 7 bedrooms on the 2nd floor, 4 in the basement, inground heated pool/ hotub and sauna with a 4 car garage and a loft above. They won $11.8million from a lotto ticket they received in a bday card. They were already wealthy accountants...lol
Regardless of who has ever owned it: it would take tons of money to maintain it, apparently. When you look at houses this big in Europe that have lasted hundreds of years - this one is bad work.
Exactly what I was thinking. A contractor told me Mansions are made of the same crappy quality materials our houses are made of. It seems to me the drywalls molds & rots too easily too. They got ripped off.
@@719hannah she did have it built for them… she was not 11. She had it built for them and abandoned it in 2011. A quick google search will do wonders instead of making shit up 😂
This video made me sick to see how someone can spend so much money then abandoned it, and leave it full of garbage. If I had an opportunity to ever own a place as beautiful as this I would never in a million years left it. I would have done something with it. Thank you for sharing . I love your videos. ❤❤❤
I've been in Real Estate for 30+ years, and have seen $5m, $10m, and even $20 million houses like this .....I'd say this one is only about $4 or $5 mil in construction cost, believe it or not... they usually get foreclosed on because something happened - like owner had a bad business deal that ruined him, divorce, death, or embezzlement of the construction funds ....lots of different reasons. I don't know what happened here, but one guy below said it was never owned by TS.... Instead of living in something sensible and saving their money, a lot of these people build a "monument to their ego" as I like to call it, and when their house of cards falls down, this is what happens !
According to someone who lives in this neighborhood this was never owned by Taylor Swift. It changed owners 3x while being built and was an eyesore for the neighbors - but TS never had anything to do with it.
I definitely believe that, because I can't imagine that Taylor Swift would leave it to rot like that. She's very business savvy. I don't see her throwing all of that money away by just leaving it abandoned if she had spent all the money to have it built.
@@christenn32 Easy to say when this house was built in 2000 and Taylor Swift, born in 1989, was only 11 years old. Thanks silly internet dummies for actually believing a 11yo in Junior High, who was signed as a songwriter by Sony ATV at 14 years of age, could actually have money 3 years before to purchase a house for her parents! You clearly are a silly fool who will believe that a Nigerian prince is emailing you. Duh.
That was said but if you look at the rest of the comments she posts you find that she reallydoesnt even know what shes talking about how the hell would she know? If noone ever moved in then it would make sense why it was always abandond she has no clue who or when it was sold to she said she lived across the street so I doubt that the real estate agent just came to her house for tea everytime he sold the house and told her all the details about everything she sounds like a know it all and has no actual proof that it was or wasn't ever in Taylor's name
@@richstoyboxroi8734 Also when I was a kid growing up in the area the rumor at the time was that it was originally owned by Tom Cruise which I’m sure is unlikely as well.
Architecturally speaking, the house looks like it was built by a contractor pretending to be an architect. Totally tacky. So many homeless people in the world, and then there is this.
Ever think that having huge amounts of money makes a lot of people stupid? The idea of living in monolithic opulence is a wholly selfish, ego-driven endeavor, and the vast wastes of that mentality are found all over the world. Maybe people have to be smart to figure out how to acquire giant fortunes, but those fortunes often seem to result in grandiose self-centered things, like this ugly-as-hell, complete waste of effort of a home.
I agree with you. Nothing worse than a contractor designing his own house. Most big modern houses are ugly. Here, in LA, most of the new mansions are ugly.
So many businesses looking for people to work, basically begging for people to come in and work and homeless people have no desire to try and find meaningful employment. At some point you can only help so much before these people have to put forth some effort
@@christenn32 Don't you think it would be better for this house to be put to some good use (children's home, homeless shelter, rehab Centre etc) rather than just going unused and sinking into the ground and being no use to anyone? It's not that old so shouldn't take that much effort to make it actually USEFUL.
@@travissmith2067 funny how when you live in a house, you can live there for 30+ years and your house doesn’t rot away. But abandon it for a year yeah it’s gonna fall
@@rortify you abandon it for ten years, yeah it is gonna start to rot dude. Little things like paint, continuous internal climate control, etc., really do make the difference.
I was part of the crew of one of the sub contractors that worked at this house I was there for 8-1/2 months Taylor swift and her family had nothing to do with this house her first mansion was located in PROVIDENCE R.I. the original owners were a pair of doctors when we worked there
I live near this place and have done work in the surrounding homes. It was first rumored to be Tom Cruises. So whichever story is accurate .. it doesn’t take away from the fact that’s it’s gigantic …and a shame for something like this to be left in disarray.
This video absolutely made me sick to my stomach The money that people have and they just waste it It's just really disgusting to me Thank you for showing us how ignorant the wealthy can be and greedy Love your videos take care be safe
I completely agree!!! Absolutely blows my mind as to how wasteful and selfish ppl with money like this are!!!! All the homeless and starving ppl there are in the world and these ppl have money just to throw away! They probably wipe their asses with hundred dollar bills!!!
Understood, however let’s say she was $10M in on this before the project stopped. That $10M went into the pockets of low wage earners who do construction. I would rather have 10M go directly into the pockets of blue collar labor than to the government in taxes.
Sorry and I mean this respectfully but this was proven a while ago that it was NOT hers/her parents’ house. A neighbor to that house said it went into foreclosure and sold in November 2019 for $450k. The house she bought her parents is in Nashville.
That’s what I read too. Couldn’t find anything connecting her to this house. She did buy them a home in Nashville and then turned around and put it up for sale 4 months later.
Just found your channel recently and love it so far. God bless you for the integrity you bring to your videos! This made me really upset. Why wouldn't someone hold Taylor accountable for leaving this property like this!!!! There are SO many people needing homes and shelter and knowing that this could house and help others....blows my mind! Also-Not sure if you said where this was but Nashville has flooding not too long ago that many lost everything.....WHY NOT TURN THIS INTO A REFUGE! I cannot imagine having SO much money that you just put out million dollars to be built only to leave it abandoned. Sickening!!!! May God bless you greatly!
A person cannot afford the property taxes on those places and that's the reason why they sit abandoned and it's stupid for a person to own one and it's a waste of money.
Thank you for the video. Not ever a TS fan and seeing this video was made 6 mos.ago I googled TS. I didn't know she came from a rich family , her maternal grandmother was a famous singer , and her mother has been battling cancer for a few years. I'm sure there a lot of controversy over this home as to who built it and for whom , and why it sits empty to this day. It's a shame what has happened there like so many other empty places going to waste . The last recession 2008 left so many homes empty because people were without jobs and homes. We're now into the third year of the planned- demic.Its scary where this will go. God bless stay safe.
Hmmm, so this must be an extremely old video or its recent..... just an added insight to this structure......I was working in that house as a contractor some many years ago. Thats up in Allentown Pa. One guy lived their to oversee the property. Unfortunately, I was told that this was the home of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. And was abandoned because of their divorce. They built it so they could travel back and forth to NY for movie gigs. But, I have no idea if that was true or not. Just what I was told. Though Taylor Swift might be a bit younger before she made her millions. Unknown about here parents though.. Unfortunately I'm unaware of whats true or not true. When I was there the entire house was being renovated by a man who I felt was a bit shady but it was starting to look livable. Now this was probably 9+ years ago. Timing is a bit fussy at this point. I was at the very top of the peak of the mansion. The view was stunning... It was built with a metal frame structure in mind. It sits on a hill in the middle of a community of 3-5M Properties. Its Like whos got the biggest dick structure. I have pictures from the top of structure looking down and on the inside. I think i have pictures of the chandelier and the stairs. Its absolutely beautiful home. I was also told it was 10m structure at the time it was being constructed but later abandoned and homeless people were living in it for years. Again thats what was told to me. Anyway, its stunning and beautiful to say the least. I haven't been there in a long time so I don't know whats going on now. Thanks for the video though.
Yes you are absolutely correct this is Tom Cruise's and Nicole Kidman's abandoned mansion. I live in that area for a very long time. I don't understand why it is not finished and maybe being used for homeless veterans or families. Or better yet I'm kind of facility to help the elderly. With so many people being homeless in the United States and us catering to the needs of people that are just coming into this country, I think it's time to start caring for our own people first. But that's just my opinion. I do not think that this is Taylor Swift's parents house. I believe it is come kruis Cole Kidman in which they both abandoned instead of finishing it.
@@teresanagengast3860 NO. The land was purchased in 1997 & house was built in 2000 by person named Tarapchak, sold in 2012, has had 2 subsequent owners the last buying the property for around $450,000. Never belonged to Swift, Cruise, or Kidman. I do know from records the title was changed for $1 from 2 people to 1, I suspect a divorce.
This breaks my heart. So many who are in need, most work to the bone and can't afford homes and this is just rotting away?!?! Ppl are ruthless. I'm not perfect but I give until there is nothing left. This is a shame, on her parents too.
Absolutely disgusting how many buildings are just abandoned when the need for housing in this country is so desperate. I appreciate your filming and wish something could be done to make use of some of these buildings.
I have seen videos about this. Someone who grew up near this house said it DOES NOT belong to Taylor or her family. Something about the developer ran out of money or something. It's been some time since I have seen the video.
When I see this home, all I can think of is how many homeless people it could shelter. There are decent people who, for some type of tragic circumstances, have lost their homes. What a beautiful place to be left to ruin. So sad.
Ouch Michelle, not needed. That very same thought entered my mind as well but not every homeless person is grateful. Nice idea though not very pratical.
Absolutely how many homeless people could she house in that house or turn it into a soup kitchen for the homeless and a shelter absolutely disgusting to me I never thought Taylor Swift was that self-centered or wasteful for that matter
Hold up... was that a Weber Smokey Joe grill that someone just left abandoned on the porch? I can understand abandoning a house but that's a perfectly good grill right there. 😅
I was literally just thinking the same thing.... think of how many uses this place could have!! How many homeless families and people in general could get shelter in a place like this. How cool would it be to turn it into some sort of awesome sanctuary or shelter?!?! And how many more places are there like this that could be utilized for a good cause.??!!? What a total waste of money, space, materials, land... breaks my heart man.
Exactly!! Why do the multi millionaires spend it on toys for themselves, when there are hundreds of good causes they could help with?. It’s annoying as heck🇨🇦😡🤬
You can't help those people I have tried I have gave several of them jobs and they stole from me they choose to live that way most of them gets government benefits but instead of giving them a place to live they would rather have alcohol and drugs
I must say, I appreciate your respectfulness for not needing to swear and cuss every other word like a lot (most) of people. It's just not needed or necessary and it lowers your intelligence level. Thanks 😊
So we had a mansion in our area that was never finished for over 10 years. What happened was an accident and they where forced to shut down all construction until the lawsuit was done. Unfortunately things happen and there isn’t anything that can be done. Luckily the place near me was finally finished and sold.
It's ashame that it was built and no one lives in this beautiful home. It is a beautiful home, Pella windows are great brand, so it had high quality brands. Thank you for sharing.🙂
The much-discussed and captivating home on more than 5 acres has been around for 17 years now atop a bluff in a high-end development in western Lehigh County's Lowhill Township. It's the manor of The Manor subdivision. It's had two owners but no one's ever lived there, a real estate agent said. And it's been back on the market for several months now. This nine-bedroom, seven-full-bath castle of concrete, steel and brick in a neighborhood of mere mansions isn't for the average buyer. For starters, despite its metal tile roof, it's not finished. Not nearly. And, when it comes to interior finishes, much of what is done might need to be undone, then redone. Oh, and the price tag? North of $1 million. And it doesn't help that the kind of homes that sold for $1 million 10 years ago in the Lehigh Valley now go for $600,000 and are beautiful, he said. But this property has some things that others don't -- land that on the open market would probably draw $300,000, Paranee said. It's basically a par 3 from tee to green. It's in a good school district and has breathtaking views. And the home's guts -- the concrete, brick and steel -- could set a builder back $2 million to replicate, Paranee estimated. In-floor heat and central air. The mechanical rooms are impressive. Five garages and a separate workshop with a garage door of its own. Two in-law suites on the first level, each with a bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and living room. There's a library. A media room. Huge laundry rooms and an office. A master suite with a windowed reading loft, marble bath and walk-in closets. A place for a covered pool below the second-floor deck.
Do you know why nobody ever moved in? I don’t care who owned it. It’s beautiful and so odd nobody ever moved in. Any local stories you can share? Haunted? Jaded exes of some sort? Lol
I’m just wondering how many times you have used it for a Instagram/Facebook pic background. Like go out there is a robe, shotgun and a coffee. It would make a cool pic
I would like to know which state this is in. If possible, could you let me know? If it sold for less than half a million and my dump with a half an acre is worth the same price, I want to move to this state!
I can't get over the garbage laying around. That should be a code violation. What an absolute waste. Even though it's a huge mansion, I bet it brings down the property value
its so disrespectful of that contractor to empty all the trash and building debris from various contractors on his back porch! arrest the man! give his house to 30 heroin addicts! virtue! virtue! *eyes rolling*
Whoever the hell owns it should be sent the bill for demolishing it! It's disgraceful to build something this big only to not finish it and then just let it rot. Also, how the heck could this expensive structure be 'falling apart' after such a short period? The contractor must be doing some damn shady work!
Typically the weather quickly without people in them, because of extreme weather. No AC or heat running, so the house is hot or cold, water leaks, bugs and animals all sorta reasons as to why houses start getting shitty fast
Modern homes aren't designed to last without continual climate control. They won't stand a 100 years like homes from a century ago. They're built cheap, not to last.
I can't even imagine what it would be like to have so much money that you could afford to just walk away from that and it not even affect your bank account. Unreal. What a shame.
hi,, everyone im from philippines... i just dscover ur vlog recently... and im so amazed how u guys do the job... its so sad seing thos houses were being abandoned ,, i cant buy cars and a huge houses so its so sad seing this abandoned expensive things🙂🙂🙂🙂
How do you know it's Taylor's house though? Not gonna lie, I feel like a lot of these videos I see are click bait, however, they are really beautiful places.
I totally agree. Totally clickbait. What state is the house? Did you confirm the trail of owners through building dept or tax office? What!!! You looked up square footage? You risk trespassing?! And don’t confirm or know history? Really guys!
@@windronner1 Property records are public and if your channel is based on exposing abandoned buildings and preserving the beauty you don’t give info to the masses. This is basic internet 101 bozos.

Yes, I quite agree! This house is hideous, making me wonder what kind of architect would design something so dreadful. What a waste of all those bricks!
@@number1hvac nah your poor is showing. The whole house is made of bricks. A beautiful house is made out of stone or wood, and painted. Not suburban brick made by large contractor companies

This is a beauty. What a waste. A house this big should have a pool. Wonder if it does. Somebody needs to save this one. Glad the vandals haven't been there. Thanks for sharing and stay safe.
The mess , the disarray and the abandonment of things makes complete sense if the ownership of this place has been in limbo. It would make a beautiful place to house those who are considered “less fortunate”. Gardens could also be planted and food could be grown to help give people skills and feed the community.
@@caroletta451 I see your point. I’ve seen a fair amount of people in my time trash brand new homes in brand new apartments too. Sad. But I guess not everyone views having something new with the same excitement that I do. That’s OK. :-)
@@reneeg4817 She didn't buy this house in PA for her parents. She bought a place for them in Nashville, where she was based in, at 2011 when she was still making country music then.

I’m a stage 4 cancer victim. USAF veteran now living in a 5th wheel because I can no longer afford a home and can not get SSI. this makes me sick every time I see one of these abandoned homes.
That DOESN'T belong to TS- she wouldn't leave a property like that- she would finish it and sell it, or just sell it- her father was an investment banker, and they know better than to leave a money pit sitting there like that- this is just click-bait.
Personally, I'm less than impressed with this Mansion. It's not very old and looks like someone had bigger ideas than they could afford or planned for and now look at it. All a waste of material and money, imo.
It said the house was in foreclosure and sold for $450,000. The bank and loan companies just want to recoup their investment. If it doesn’t sell through a real estate company they auction it off and accept what ever they get.
The land was bought in 1997 and house was built in 2000. Abandoned after the owner ran out of funds. This isn't nor was it owned or built by Taylor Swift. I truly enjoy this channel but a simple public record search changes this from a story to click bait. Instead of perpetuating a false narrative use facts and let your videos sell themselves.
Good Morning 🤠 Big Banks , Please Let Me Know , When You Get 🤔 The Rest Of That Viewing I Would Lv To See The Ending of That Story ! ( Another Note Do You Cover Mansions In Nashville, Tn . Because There Many Here In This City . Please Reply ! )
I’m only subscribed to like 10 people and your one of them, always enjoy your videos. It’s disappointing to see you use click bait about Taylor Swift, she was like 6 when this house was built. Your videos are awesome enough without you having to name drop to get views, your above that.
He didnt have to state it turned out to be a rumor and apologize for it. Nobody else does. If you enjoy his videos so much you would know that "click bait" isnt his thing. Shame on you for passing judgement like that. Stop being an asshat.
Thought I’d give a little info on this house (courtesy of someone from across the street on Brighton Court) It is NOT Taylor swifts family or hers. Apparently it was built in 2000, it exchanged hands 3 times. It was recently purchased in November 2019 for $451,000 and is in foreclosure.
Are you kidding? His videos are the most vague and ill informed videos on you tube regarding abandoned houses. I learn more about a property from reading the comments. He doesn't even do basic the basic research that his viewers do....
@@leonashford4505 no one said he owes anyone research... not sure where you got that from. They said his videos are ill informed. So he should give no information or do some (honest) research and at least try to sprinkle some truth in. If this is the same guy as urbex and chill, he's currently monopolizing off betty whites death by saying he went into her abandoned house - fun FACT: it wasn't her house. If it's not, just know: most of these people lie for views.
It took me five minutes to look on the auditor's site to see who owns this. It's nobody that has anything to do with Taylor. He should document things so he is credible.
it most definitely is not falling apart. Do you see any damage to the brick facade or the doors/windows? roof? no, it needs a renovation. but it is not 'falling apart' by any stretch
She probably gave the money to her parents to build and they abandoned it. I'ts been in the news in UK that she helped out a struggling fan and paid her college fees there's been other stories too so she's known to be very generous here.

I can barely afford monthly rent for a one room apartment so it's crazy to me some people have enough money to abandon a mansion🤧
High property tax can't afford and it cost a lot to maintain.
It abandoned because they could not afford to finish it nor live there!! That's the point they got greedy and over built!!

Honestly it's kind of insulting leaving abandoned places like this, given how many people are living in the street nowadays.

All she cares about is you purchasing her concert tickets and albums. Ensuring that she stays RICH!!

Besides it’s UGLY!
@@montebrown9528this never belonged to Taylor.
I've been in Real Estate for 30+ years, and have seen $5m, $10m, and even $20 million houses like this .....I'd say this one is only about $4 or $5 mil in construction cost, believe it or not... they usually get foreclosed on because something happened - like owner had a bad business deal that ruined him, divorce, death, or embezzlement of the construction funds ....lots of different reasons. I don't know what happened here, but one guy below said it was never owned by TS.... Instead of living in something sensible and saving their money, a lot of these people build a "monument to their ego" as I like to call it, and when their house of cards falls down, this is what happens !
@T Faber fancy a JV on this deal?
The most sensible remark I've read ☆☆☆☆☆
I'm sure there is a way to find out the details of the land/unfinished home to someone seriously interested... 🏘
Monument to their ego! Now I know what to call that. Perfect term.

According to someone who lives in this neighborhood this was never owned by Taylor Swift. It changed owners 3x while being built and was an eyesore for the neighbors - but TS never had anything to do with it.
I definitely believe that, because I can't imagine that Taylor Swift would leave it to rot like that. She's very business savvy. I don't see her throwing all of that money away by just leaving it abandoned if she had spent all the money to have it built.
@@kellyhoward7803 easy to be savy when you're filthy rich, and can't sing a lick. Thanks, dad. LOL!
@@christenn32 Easy to say when this house was built in 2000 and Taylor Swift, born in 1989, was only 11 years old. Thanks silly internet dummies for actually believing a 11yo in Junior High, who was signed as a songwriter by Sony ATV at 14 years of age, could actually have money 3 years before to purchase a house for her parents!

That was said but if you look at the rest of the comments she posts you find that she reallydoesnt even know what shes talking about how the hell would she know? If noone ever moved in then it would make sense why it was always abandond she has no clue who or when it was sold to she said she lived across the street so I doubt that the real estate agent just came to her house for tea everytime he sold the house and told her all the details about everything she sounds like a know it all and has no actual proof that it was or wasn't ever in Taylor's name
As a local, no way was this Taylor Swifts parents house. There have been many unsubstantiated rumors over the years. I’d love to see some proof.
where is this house located?
@@richstoyboxroi8734 Also when I was a kid growing up in the area the rumor at the time was that it was originally owned by Tom Cruise which I’m sure is unlikely as well.
I was just thinking the same thing. They also lied about the Gotti mansion
@@bryanremaly4833 ~ where is this? You replied to the same question but didn’t answer.
Also it’s a very wealthy neighborhood patrolled by the PA state police, so use good judgement lol
Architecturally speaking, the house looks like it was built by a contractor pretending to be an architect. Totally tacky. So many homeless people in the world, and then there is this.
Ever think that having huge amounts of money makes a lot of people stupid? The idea of living in monolithic opulence is a wholly selfish, ego-driven endeavor, and the vast wastes of that mentality are found all over the world. Maybe people have to be smart to figure out how to acquire giant fortunes, but those fortunes often seem to result in grandiose self-centered things, like this ugly-as-hell, complete waste of effort of a home.
I agree with you. Nothing worse than a contractor designing his own house. Most big modern houses are ugly. Here, in LA, most of the new mansions are ugly.
What do homeless people have to do with this house? You live in a house, yet there are so many homeless people in the world. So what?
So many businesses looking for people to work, basically begging for people to come in and work and homeless people have no desire to try and find meaningful employment. At some point you can only help so much before these people have to put forth some effort
@@christenn32 Don't you think it would be better for this house to be put to some good use (children's home, homeless shelter, rehab Centre etc) rather than just going unused and sinking into the ground and being no use to anyone? It's not that old so shouldn't take that much effort to make it actually USEFUL.
After 10 years and it's already falling apart . Doesn't say alot about New thing's

Any vacant property will rot no matter how new or well constructed.

I was part of the crew of one of the sub contractors that worked at this house I was there for 8-1/2 months Taylor swift and her family had nothing to do with this house her first mansion was located in PROVIDENCE R.I. the original owners were a pair of doctors when we worked there
This home has a very cold feel about it,
It looks like it was thrown together like Lego and the dilapidation has set in big time,
It has no curves at all. The brickwork looks ultra cheap. Like you say, it feels slapped together like Lego.
@@jackochainsaw yes, its big and shitty, look at the old school structures, this looks like a pos compared to how it was done in the past

It's not pretty because the brick doesn't look like a mansion. Uggy

And it doesn’t look pretty either. Purple roof with concrete and brick…
That’s why it’s best to live a simple life...
@ed jones less things to worry about... less things to lose... the more you have the more life seems stressful... that’s just my opinion...
The more you have, the more you think you have to have, the more you get.
I prefer a motel room myself.
@ed jones Why do you want's something that big I sure don't
I SO agree.... money isn't that important to me. Even IF I had millions...I be happy in a nice "normal" house
Same, i wouldn't want anything extravagant, i once went into a big house and didn't like the feel of it ,I would want something warm and cozy
I live near this place and have done work in the surrounding homes. It was first rumored to be Tom Cruises. So whichever story is accurate .. it doesn’t take away from the fact that’s it’s gigantic …and a shame for something like this to be left in disarray.

Mansions are a waste of money especially when it’s just one or two people living in one💰
Right, it's like look at how rich I am than it is practical.
Agree… The more rooms you have the more you have to clean so it would be pointless to have like 6+ bedrooms if you don’t need them

I completely agree!!! Absolutely blows my mind as to how wasteful and selfish ppl with money like this are!!!! All the homeless and starving ppl there are in the world and these ppl have money just to throw away! They probably wipe their asses with hundred dollar bills!!!
Taylor has no association to this home nor has ever. People enjoy lying for clout
Records are public
Taylor has never owned this home, there are public records.
Understood, however let’s say she was $10M in on this before the project stopped. That $10M went into the pockets of low wage earners who do construction. I would rather have 10M go directly into the pockets of blue collar labor than to the government in taxes.
Deborah, 😳😢I Absolutely agree with you x
Sorry and I mean this respectfully but this was proven a while ago that it was NOT hers/her parents’ house. A neighbor to that house said it went into foreclosure and sold in November 2019 for $450k. The house she bought her parents is in Nashville.
Also should add this was built in the late 90s 😅 So this house is probably as old as she is. But nonetheless a beautiful house!
That’s what I read too. Couldn’t find anything connecting her to this house. She did buy them a home in Nashville and then turned around and put it up for sale 4 months later.
Right !! Used the title for clickbait

It's a hideous Mcmansion.
Thank you for the video. Not ever a TS fan and seeing this video was made 6 mos.ago I googled TS. I didn't know she came from a rich family , her maternal grandmother was a famous singer , and her mother has been battling cancer for a few years. I'm sure there a lot of controversy over this home as to who built it and for whom , and why it sits empty to this day. It's a shame what has happened there like so many other empty places going to waste . The last recession 2008 left so many homes empty because people were without jobs and homes. We're now into the third year of the planned- demic.Its scary where this will go. God bless stay safe.
She had nothing to do with this house, he lied
EXACTLY, Planned Demic
@Not One Dr Fauci's planned-demic
TS (aka) Taylor Swift has nothing to do with this property.
Hmmm, so this must be an extremely old video or its recent..... just an added insight to this structure......I was working in that house as a contractor some many years ago. Thats up in Allentown Pa. One guy lived their to oversee the property. Unfortunately, I was told that this was the home of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. And was abandoned because of their divorce. They built it so they could travel back and forth to NY for movie gigs. But, I have no idea if that was true or not. Just what I was told. Though Taylor Swift might be a bit younger before she made her millions. Unknown about here parents though.. Unfortunately I'm unaware of whats true or not true.
When I was there the entire house was being renovated by a man who I felt was a bit shady but it was starting to look livable. Now this was probably 9+ years ago. Timing is a bit fussy at this point. I was at the very top of the peak of the mansion. The view was stunning... It was built with a metal frame structure in mind. It sits on a hill in the middle of a community of 3-5M Properties. Its Like whos got the biggest dick structure. I have pictures from the top of structure looking down and on the inside. I think i have pictures of the chandelier and the stairs. Its absolutely beautiful home. I was also told it was 10m structure at the time it was being constructed but later abandoned and homeless people were living in it for years. Again thats what was told to me. Anyway, its stunning and beautiful to say the least. I haven't been there in a long time so I don't know whats going on now. Thanks for the video though.
Yes you are absolutely correct this is Tom Cruise's and Nicole Kidman's abandoned mansion. I live in that area for a very long time. I don't understand why it is not finished and maybe being used for homeless veterans or families. Or better yet I'm kind of facility to help the elderly. With so many people being homeless in the United States and us catering to the needs of people that are just coming into this country, I think it's time to start caring for our own people first. But that's just my opinion. I do not think that this is Taylor Swift's parents house. I believe it is come kruis Cole Kidman in which they both abandoned instead of finishing it.
I AGREE WITH YOU
@@teresanagengast3860 NO. The land was purchased in 1997 & house was built in 2000 by person named Tarapchak, sold in 2012, has had 2 subsequent owners the last buying the property for around $450,000. Never belonged to Swift, Cruise, or Kidman. I do know from records the title was changed for $1 from 2 people to 1, I suspect a divorce.
This breaks my heart. So many who are in need, most work to the bone and can't afford homes and this is just rotting away?!?! Ppl are ruthless. I'm not perfect but I give until there is nothing left. This is a shame, on her parents too.

Absolutely disgusting how many buildings are just abandoned when the need for housing in this country is so desperate. I appreciate your filming and wish something could be done to make use of some of these buildings.
I have seen videos about this. Someone who grew up near this house said it DOES NOT belong to Taylor or her family. Something about the developer ran out of money or something. It's been some time since I have seen the video.
Thank you, for the truth. in the end there is no crazy mystery. just a developer and bank that tapped out.
People who built home divorced but that was after permit problems & failed inspections. Not Swift, Cruise or Kidman.
When I see this home, all I can think of is how many homeless people it could shelter. There are decent people who, for some type of tragic circumstances, have lost their homes. What a beautiful place to be left to ruin. So sad.
Why dont you buy it and let the homeless live with you then?
So sad to see so many Americans going without and all this money has built a home that no one lives in.. what is wrong with this picture ???
Ouch Michelle, not needed. That very same thought entered my mind as well but not every homeless person is grateful. Nice idea though not very pratical.
I agree...
Absolutely how many homeless people could she house in that house or turn it into a soup kitchen for the homeless and a shelter absolutely disgusting to me I never thought Taylor Swift was that self-centered or wasteful for that matter
Just imagine yourself with a cup of coffee coming down those steps in the morning and hearing the birds chirping what a life I'd love to live one day
The view, the fresh air that gets into lung, the calmness , the sunrise sunset , the view to the sky

How cool would it be to turn it into some sort of awesome sanctuary or shelter?!?! And how many more places are there like this that could be utilized for a good cause.??!!? What a total waste of money, space, materials, land... breaks my heart man.

So we had a mansion in our area that was never finished for over 10 years. What happened was an accident and they where forced to shut down all construction until the lawsuit was done. Unfortunately things happen and there isn’t anything that can be done. Luckily the place near me was finally finished and sold.
It's ashame that it was built and no one lives in this beautiful home. It is a beautiful home, Pella windows are great brand, so it had high quality brands. Thank you for sharing.🙂
The much-discussed and captivating home on more than 5 acres has been around for 17 years now atop a bluff in a high-end development in western Lehigh County's Lowhill Township.
It's the manor of The Manor subdivision.
It's had two owners but no one's ever lived there, a real estate agent said. And it's been back on the market for several months now.
This nine-bedroom, seven-full-bath castle of concrete, steel and brick in a neighborhood of mere mansions isn't for the average buyer.
For starters, despite its metal tile roof, it's not finished. Not nearly. And, when it comes to interior finishes, much of what is done might need to be undone, then redone.
Oh, and the price tag? North of $1 million.
And it doesn't help that the kind of homes that sold for $1 million 10 years ago in the Lehigh Valley now go for $600,000 and are beautiful, he said.
But this property has some things that others don't -- land that on the open market would probably draw $300,000, Paranee said. It's basically a par 3 from tee to green. It's in a good school district and has breathtaking views. And the home's guts -- the concrete, brick and steel -- could set a builder back $2 million to replicate, Paranee estimated.
In-floor heat and central air. The mechanical rooms are impressive.
Five garages and a separate workshop with a garage door of its own. Two in-law suites on the first level, each with a bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and living room.
There's a library. A media room. Huge laundry rooms and an office. A master suite with a windowed reading loft, marble bath and walk-in closets. A place for a covered pool below the second-floor deck.
I live 10 minutes away from this house. It was not Taylor Swift’s. The home was built in 1999 and was never lived in.
Do you know why nobody ever moved in? I don’t care who owned it. It’s beautiful and so odd nobody ever moved in. Any local stories you can share? Haunted? Jaded exes of some sort? Lol
I’m just wondering how many times you have used it for a Instagram/Facebook pic background. Like go out there is a robe, shotgun and a coffee. It would make a cool pic
I would like to know which state this is in. If possible, could you let me know? If it sold for less than half a million and my dump with a half an acre is worth the same price, I want to move to this state!
The owners were going through a divorce.
It’s sad what people will do for views. Clickbait smh

The land was bought in 1997 and house was built in 2000. Abandoned after the owner ran out of funds. This isn't nor was it owned or built by Taylor Swift.

Good Morning 🤠 Big Banks , Please Let Me Know , When You Get 🤔 The Rest Of That Viewing I Would Lv To See The Ending of That Story ! ( Another Note Do You Cover Mansions In Nashville, Tn . Because There Many Here In This City . Please Reply ! )
This house does nothing for me but it saddens me to no end how many homeless people could use a place like this especially now with the evictions!
I’m only subscribed to like 10 people and your one of them, always enjoy your videos. It’s disappointing to see you use click bait about Taylor Swift, she was like 6 when this house was built. Your videos are awesome enough without you having to name drop to get views, your above that.
I just went by what I was told. I apologize
He didnt have to state it turned out to be a rumor and apologize for it. Nobody else does. If you enjoy his videos so much you would know that "click bait" isnt his thing. Shame on you for passing judgement like that. Stop being an asshat.
True the fact that so many are already hating on Taylor saying her to donate this mansion lol
Thought I’d give a little info on this house (courtesy of someone from across the street on Brighton Court) It is NOT Taylor swifts family or hers. Apparently it was built in 2000, it exchanged hands 3 times. It was recently purchased in November 2019 for $451,000 and is in foreclosure.
A 25 year olds home who just don't give a shit, talk about ignorant people with money, I'm just jealous
What sets u apart from other urban explorers is that you give history. Keep great explores coming! From one okie to another! ❤️
Are you kidding? His videos are the most vague and ill informed videos on you tube regarding abandoned houses. I learn more about a property from reading the comments. He doesn't even do basic the basic research that his viewers do....
@@gabriellemontana1474 he doesn’t owe anybody any research though
Well he actually gave the wrong history! It never had anything to do with Taylor swift!
@@leonashford4505 no one said he owes anyone research... not sure where you got that from.
They said his videos are ill informed. So he should give no information or do some (honest) research and at least try to sprinkle some truth in. If this is the same guy as urbex and chill, he's currently monopolizing off betty whites death by saying he went into her abandoned house - fun FACT: it wasn't her house. If it's not, just know: most of these people lie for views.
It took me five minutes to look on the auditor's site to see who owns this. It's nobody that has anything to do with Taylor. He should document things so he is credible.
Just wow could only imagine opening doors to a house like that everyday only one can dream
Wow, a house that new shouldn't be falling apart already.
it most definitely is not falling apart. Do you see any damage to the brick facade or the doors/windows? roof? no, it needs a renovation. but it is not 'falling apart' by any stretch
@@johnmilton5569 bro the floor of both exterior balconies caving in
Hate to think what the utility bills would be for 23,000 sq ft!
Probably really high haha
@@BigBankz Lots higher than I care to pay, I'm sure! LOL
I wish I could see the inside of the whole entire house, that would be so cool. Where is this beautiful mansion located at? I would like to know. 🙂
Lowerhill Township , PA
I love all your videos Big Bankz keep them coming!!
it looks like dracula built it, blindfolded while drunk.
Lol
She probably gave the money to her parents to build and they abandoned it. I'ts been in the news in UK that she helped out a struggling fan and paid her college fees there's been other stories too so she's known to be very generous here.
I remember driving by this on vacation and thinking how weird this was.
Where is it?
Where is this located at?
@@QueenVirgo09 Really! Everyone knows "the story", but nobody seems to know where the hell it's located! All it takes is an address and a quick public record search and BAM! there's the real story about the house.
@Cocky Rocky EXACTLY! & it never belonged to Taylor or her family. I have people that lie and even more ppl who believe everything on the internet
@@blackasses1232 He said Oklahoma 💬
Although I'm absolutely NOT a Taylor Swift fan at all that house is beautiful and should be donated if she isn't going to do anything with it!!
Its not hers. It was built in the late 1999s. Before her time.
She literally donate sm all the time nevertheless it's not hers
@@peace_AB_ lmao... Her donations are just misleading investments. Swift is a very savy business woman.
@@cryptocannoli2512 no they're not? She's donated normal people for their studies recently during covid without any publicity how can be they misleading?
Yes she's a great business woman in music as she should. She has brains.
Where is this located? City & state? Her mom lives in a huge house that Taylor bought her in Nashville, TN… I’m curious to know the story behind why they abandoned this mansion before finishing it… 🤔 I’d love to see the inside!!
Schnekersville Pa The house was built in 2000 by couple named Tarapchak. Swift never owned the house.
It will never be finished she's on the list
The list???
Duck duck go research Indictments arrests and executions
@@rinagonzalez1980 what?
What a total shame, it could have been bought by the city and made into a Community Center or a Senior Center.
Really enjoyed your video! What a beautiful mansion! So sad to see something that big and beautiful be abandoned.
I can only dream of this home. A miracle would have to happen for me to live in such a fabulous MansionHome.🌹❤️🙋🏽♀️
Go on Dave Ramsey plan and you can live in that Mansion.
I'm going to be praying for you Sheriese. Be safe. London, UK
