Abandoned 4 Million Dollar 1940s Hollywood Estate Home

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มี.ค. 2020
- this Abandoned Estate Home was built in 1946 in an area surrounded by farm fields. It was by itself up until the 1960’s when the surrounding was developed.
The amazing landscaping was created shortly after the estate was built by an English landscape architect & her husband & business partner.
The grounds & the mansion were used extensively in videos, commercials & television shows over the years however these days it sits, quiet. Over the years many events were held at the mansion & even included the likes of Willie Nelson! I sincerely hope that if others do find this place they treat it with the respect it deserves.
In the End, Unfortunately like most places i explore, this house will probably end up demolished for some ugly, cheaply built Mcmansion to replace it. - บันเทิง
Why would they tear down such a beautiful home, just remodel it or something, people have no since of history and beauty
Right? People pay a ton for retro looking items now!
Gladys Greer something bad probably happened there and no one wants it
Cause people have no respect for old things these days they like modern shit
probably has cloth wiring and things of that nature that are deemed as unsafe....cannot sell it and in order to fix it and rewire i not only are you damaging the house but it would cost lots of money to fix it? just my guess
@@nikkilea5632 : EXACTLY, Nikki. It seems to be a growing trend, thankfully.
I have to say, I get angry when I watch Ethan's videos, because so many of the places he features - how he gets in them I'll never know - have no damn, business being destroyed in the first place. As Gladys has said; some of this is history. Architectural, history so SHOULD, be preserved for THAT ALONE!
Man, I'd love to have my hands around the necks of some of these people.
My Retro/Vintage Best. Out.
Anyone notice how everything seems to be made better back then?
Because it was!
Better materials and construction along with the workers that took pride in their craft.
I agree. My father built our house in 1964. It wasn't anything fancy, but a lot of time, effort and quality materials went into it.
True That!
Nikki Lea totally! I live in Spain, Europe, and there is so bad taste, new houses and buildings are cold and ugly. It’s like they want it done fast and with the worst quality. And small, really really small.
Those wine glasses and bottle touched me.. it's like whoever lived there toasted one last time to something - perhaps to new beginnings. What a waste to tear that beautiful house down. Unless there's major foundation problems, I don't see why.
Amanda M I was thinking it was left by a real estate agent who was trying to sell the house. 🤷♂️
@@rgrndu yeah I figured that it was part of staging, though I like Amanda's take better
@@rgrndu yes and sometimes the previous owners leave that for the new owners.
The laundry chute was in the built in cabinet that was locked in the hallway. They would hide them in those. The master and 2nd huge bedroom that shared the master bath were probably his and her bedrooms for a couple who wanted separate bedrooms. The older i get the more logic i see in that ;)
Oh my! Thank you! I was thinking "separate bedrooms" when I was viewing it. I'm so glad someone else had the same idea. Maybe I'm not quite as crazy as I thought ;)
Both of you are not alone! Love my own space...
When I saw this video it said abandoned 1940’s Hollywood stars home. I hoped to know what star abandoned it . I love how you take time showing to me important rooms of the houses. I’m not particularly caring to see attics usually but in these mansions the finished basements are pretty spectacular. I’m from the south no one had basements normally down in the south great job Ethan!
Separate bedrooms or a separate dressing room.
That house looks ten times better than most houses you rent.
What a shame that this beautiful house will be destroyed! All the work that went into it. What a shame! This was one of my favorites. Thank you!😥
You have that right. The one my aunt pays 875 a month here in small town west tn looks like it needs to be tear down I really want to buy this
I just wonder if belong at one time to dean Martin.??
I don't see anything wrong with that house. I actually wanna live in it. Wtf. I am sick to hear you say that house is going to be demolished. It seems all the beautiful homes that were built when builders cared are all being demolished to put up these fabricated home.
You are Soo right about the history of these homes
Awesome home .What a find!
BTW it's called a thermostat lol
It's about money
Hate to see beautiful homes demolished.
Word.
No graffiti or damage caused by mindless visitors, should be put up for sale
I'd buy the house just for the pool and pool house lol
The reason the two bedrooms connect to the master bathroom is that they are his and hers sleeping quarters. Also ‘thermostat” is the word that escaped you. It’s a shame there seems to be a ton of amazing homes around you that are being demolished. No doubt to be replaced with a horrible McMansion
Jack and Jill bathrooms. They have them in many of the 50's thorugh 70's homes built here. Lovely tile throughout
The staircase looks like stainless steel. That downstairs and the grounds feel like something out of Gatsby (I know that was earlier). I bet it was a magnificent home for entertaining. You can tell really well to do people live in a house with servant’s quarters, a closed off kitchen and tucked away service spaces. I think I’d have to give you the best video award on this one. Your enthusiasm is wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Still watching for a Patreon or contribution link. ❤️
You did not show the counters you showed a cork no refrigerator it's over there you show what you like not a lot of the things we would like to see
I understand why a lot of old mansions get torn down because they are very unfashionable and people want more open space etc but this one seems pretty timeless so it's really sad they don't just renovate it
And that's the problem; a BIG, problem if you ask me; too, damn, much of that shit. White and open concept everywhere. I'm utterly, sick to my stomach with it all. For this, every bet of old school, vintage, character and charm is getting destroyed. We're loosing all our architectural history because of it, as well.
I so, hope to God, I live long enough to see the same, damn, thing done to all the shit of today, by a future generation who has no time or use for what the fools of today value so highly. Out.
I guess that is just how most of Toronto's wealthy think.
@@ivanj.conway9919 this house is just too damn big to be affordable/manageable!!
Houses of the 1920's were reasonable
McMansion's are going out of fashion, with today's minimalist Millennials
I work in the construction field in Toronto
@@walterbrunswick : Yes, it breaks my heart knowing that millennials are destroying all culture and beauty and replacing it with a sad, pathetic, shell of what was once there.
My Best. Out.
@@ivanj.conway9919 no, just that excess spending over-consumerism and "lavish lifestyles" "living beyond your means" in post-WWII era is coming to an end
good riddance to the wasteful society that once was, and ruined our country!!
Makes me wanna cry. Amazing house. The living room/dining room as well as the basement bar area have such an art deco feel to it. I love it. Also, the bathroom between two bedrooms is called a Jack and Jill bathroom. I think that idea started around the 40's. Just for two bedrooms to share one bath. I think you looked at the laundry shoot, it looked like a little cubby. The wine bottle and glasses gave me one of two vibes.....either the owners were saying goodbye to their beloved home, or they were celebrating the chunk of money they made on the sale.......either way it's sad.....
Shelley D those were my exact thoughts ☮️💟 Nana
When you came to the wine glasses, couldn’t help picturing a couple toasting one final time to all the memories they must’ve made in that gorgeous home. Perhaps reminiscing about Christmas’s past, birthdays, and graduations gone by......... so very sad. I feel a sentimental attachment and I’ve never stepped foot. Must’ve been difficult to leave, no matter the case. A lot of time and detail went into that beautiful home, thank you for sharing with us such a detailed view.
"Here's the kitchen"
Me: Just dies because that is the kitchen of my dreams and it's gonna be demolished 😭😭😭
The kitchen is beautiful. This house should be occupied by someone
That’s my favorite kitchen of all the mansions I have seen on here. I love it.
Sadly, this beautiful home with so much to offer will succumb to the whims of our throw away society. Probably be replaced with something that could never hold a candle to this home. Thank you for showing us this!
I absolutely love this house, looked move in ready. If I had the money, I would swoop in and buy it from the developer. The detail in the curved staircase was amazing, loved the kitchen and party room.
Cathy Reardon
I'm not sure if anyone commented on the green bathroom or not but it looked the hospitals I was in as a kid. I'm 71 now. I deffently wouldn't want that for a bathroom.😝God Bless 🙏l
You
3:06 laundry shoot and the other locked cabinet. As soon as I saw it I said "wow a laundry shoot" lol
If you ever break into Versailles for a tour, it’s gonna be, “What is up you guys?” on repeat. Kinda like this house!
Heck ya it is
What a shame they are going to demolish this house , it’s a beauty!! Just sad ! Beautiful entry ! Just hurts my heart
Get cured it happens
I LOVE when you go to a mirror and say "What is up you guys?" Shows how much you care about your viewers and that you are documenting this not only for yourself, but for your viewers that can't be there and see it in person. You are AWESOME!!! Please keep it up!!! ❤❤❤
That cork you found was a champagne cork; the 'little' living room on the side was the formal living room; the two rooms? his and hers. What a beautiful house! Shame, shame, shame.
When its demolished can you give us the history on the property, great video
"A shelf with a window" :)
Did someone already say, when 2 bedrooms share a bathroom it'd called a "Jack and Jill'.
I can’t believe nobody who appreciated era couldn’t find house first or used as mini vacation spots especially given added historical flavor save fixtures at least
Tearing that home down is sinful!
Hard to believe no one wants to restore it. A good decorator could make this home be off the caliber of any estate !
Vincenzo Lee I would gladly live in it right now!
Jacqueline Kohlenberg
So would I!!!!!!
So would I.
Me too!
@@jacquelinekohlenberg5556 I wish I could live in it. I'm pretty sure that this is my favorite house that he's explored so far
Thank you for sharing this amazing house, it is gorgeous! What a tragedy that is will be torn down! For this much detail to have been put into a house and grounds in 1946, is incredible. This was not just a house on a lot, it was an estate. It was extremely maintained too. Your tour was like stepping back in time! Awesome!
The black tile Art Deco bathroom with the swans mirror. Classic.
mariaantoinettef beautiful a!
Wow!
I love this house, I could move in and be very happy.
What a shame to tear it down.
Omg this is definitely one of my favorites that I’ve seen so far. It’s sooo freaking cute! I love all of the black and white checkered tile, and all of the little details of this house. Every time I watch these videos it just makes me so sad that it’s just going to waste.. I love how you guys love and appreciate all of these beautiful historic properties, and treat them with the respect they deserve! Watching these videos is kind of super depressing, but I’m so glad you get to share these beautiful places with us because we wouldn’t have gotten to see their beauty and get a taste of their history of you didn’t! So thank you so much! 💕
That is a beautiful home.
It's such a shame that this house is gonna be demolished. It's very beautiful and huge at the same time.
I love this house so much 😍
Also you’re so respectful when exploring!
what a shame, another house with character being taken down for no reason. Its been well taken care of no mold. People are crazy to not just buy this because houses back then were made so much stronger and better, all they need to do is remodel from the original plans especially the outside.
No one wants to buy it?
This house is so well maintained for its age. The wood floors and the bathrooms were impressive. It’s a home time capsule. The windows in the ground floor family room are so old, they’re not even insulated. That Hampton Bay ceiling fan is not old though. Parts of this big house look updated, I’m guessing the areas that the elderly lived in.
Too bad money outweighs anything else. I live in Denver where whole neighborhoods are being torn down to accommodate over priced multi family units that look like they were built from a Lego set. Soo ugly and awful.
I live in a town with a very good university. They are presently getting housing ready for the numerous medical students who are already here or are soon to arrive. Many older, unique houses and buildings are demolished in order to build high rise apartments for the students. I have mixed emotions about this. The new buildings look good but, I had to see old structures go.
Pity a solid build house gonna be demolished nothing wrong with it just soo wasteful .
What a beautiful house!!!
What a shame to demolish, such a destruction of perfectly good materials! 😥
And the same people knocking them down instead of reusing and rehabbing are probably the biggest whiners about the environment
I agree and it is very sad that they don't bother going in and removing kitchen cabinets, lights, book shelves, stair railing, wood floors, anything that could be donated or sold cheap. They get a bulldozer and there she goes. Such a huge waste of perfectly good items. When you are a millionaire, money is like water. Easy come, easy go. Just like the homes we've seen with very expensive furniture left behind. Heck, that's nothing to these people because they just go purchase more. Rather than bothering to move the "old" stuff out. Only poor and middle class people cannot really understand this concept. I just moved and I brought every piece of cheap unmatching furniture with me. And as much as I would have loved to have left it behind. I unfortunately cannot afford to purchase new pieces to replace my old.
P€a¢€~n~£0v€✌🏻
I could tell that the Master Bedroom was Huge, and stylin and profilin too. As you went on with the tour, I thought is was a bummer that it was gonna be demolished. Cozy kitchen and surrounding areas. Overall I liked it, and the outside just added more options.
OMG wow the covered walk way in the garden was so beautiful
Loved it!
This house is beautiful Ethan. It's so sad that it will be torn down 😭
it's beautiful and it doesn't look like it will need much to fix
I am glad you uploaded this video so I get to see my favorite explorer this morning I know you do amazing work at covering every detail.
That's so beautiful, I can imagine how beautiful it really wood be if someone cleaned that up and planted some flowers
Gorgeous home sad to see this gorgeous House torn down
It is historical as it is post WWII boom construction when the economy was doing well and people were optimistic People were able to afford homes and were moving out to the suburbs. This was not by means an average home for the year. it is a shame that it will be replaced with a McMansion made of drywall and plastic...
The city I live in was built up in the 40's to 60's. The homes here are too expensive to tear down so we still have most of the original homes in the city. My place is part of a tract of duplex''s that were built in 1940's for housing near Lochkeed.
A great video, such a beautiful house. I love all the architectural details. 🙂
I think that house was recently lived in just by the ceiling fan brands and refrigerator style
That fan is a home depot special from 2004. We have the same one in my house now. It was about $300 back then
The laundry shoot is locked to prevent accidents..how awesome! This is my favorite so far. Thanks for sharing this gem...These homes live on through your videos.
Lmao the amount he says "what is up you guys" 🤣😭
My favourite part(s) of the video
Mine to!!!! I love it
It gets on my nerves
Can only hope that a good salvage company will save all fixtures,staircase and even take up the hardwood floors. Once that is done might only be a sad shell left. Land is worth more than house, Sad. Thanks for showing.
That master bedroom is huge. I love that kitchen. I would so live in this house.
I agree you wish live beautiful home Lol. But lots of money buy the house ....shame very sad Lovely video .......by Jacqui x
That makes me sad it just needs a little love
Im with you dude. Its a damn shame they have to tear down this beautiful home.
Gorgeous! Adore the bathrooms. Favourite was the last one.
This is a very beautiful house lots of interesting features every where. I love that stone wall barbecue. The interior looked French to me and so does the red roof tiles and the colour of the house walls. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for taking the time to show us this beautiful home I really enjoyed the walk-through on that one I don’t understand why someone would want to tear it down with a little bit of love it could be awesome again while preserving the original architecture!
Five minutes ago I just saw the same house being explored be Carlo. It's a beautiful home
I love your video’s 👍🏾...I don’t understand why developers don’t try to save homes of these earlier eras there is a lot more character in these homes than the newer cookie cutter homes...the house and surroundings is in great condition does my head in to think it’s being demolished. Your doing well Ethan 👍🏾💖
Thx 4 sharing. Love the old houses. Good job showing this house
Beautiful place Very well presented Ethan. Thank you for your time. I love walking through the houses with you. Hope you continue doing this. You are the best
Ethan, I am so pleasantly surprised how much you appreciate within these older homes, considering your age! So many discontinued aspects that I love of architecture you point out, things unknown today as being useful or even a possibility in building today. It takes an eye for style and some good taste to notice these elements. Thank you for your persistence in finding these prize properties and archiving them, it's really important! In the future we will be using these ideas again, I have no doubt. This home is very unusual, as its art deco features are seldom seen in abandoned places. I do hope architectural salvage comes in to save all the fixtures that can be installed in other properties. Keep up the great work!! 👌👌
Also, you can certainly tell the Hollywood connection by the sheer number of mirrors inside, LOL!
This is the best one yet Ethan. I love the layout of the house and yard.
I really love that you document these beautiful places about to be demolished. What a treasure it would be to see this years later if you are that someone that's lived in this house as a child, what a blast from the past. This place is so beautiful! Love your channel ♥️
Enjoy watching your videos. I am hooked and can't stop watching them. Nice to see you respect and appreciate these beautiful homes. Appreciate your great work.
I love this house.Thanks for sharing.
Early squad thanks for the upload keep up the great contents sending alot of love your way
So far this one is my favorite! Absolutely amazing!
What a beautiful find Ethan! Thanks for the share. It's such a shame for something this old & in such great condition to be demolished.✌️
Ugh, seriously such a dreamy house! I mean look at that outdoor area. I personally really like that wine cellar too. They most definitely don’t make homes like this anymore.
Nice house and some lovely features,loved the entry area and the glass doors as you enter into the main house.
I could sit for hours watching. I love the Mansions and old houses. Such History left behind. Makes my heart sad that most get destroyed. 😞 Thank you Ethan I truly enjoy watching your Videos. Love the fact you explain and take time telling about them. Hope you will continue to do this. 👍🤗
That's a jack n jill bathroom, a thermostat and those tubs & toilets are porcelain Im sure...some people today live in a throw away world.
Don't they know Habitat for Humanity will come get anything reusable?
So happy y'all do this. The history and architecture wont be lost forever.
Ty so much.
The glass brick is so beautiful!
This is beautiful. Wow!
For a 1940s home the architect/builder were way ahead of there time, that house was stunning. The room you guys said was warm looked like they had the heating on to dry the plaster board. The basement wasn't creepy thank goodness, but for that era maybe that area was for servants. The laundry shoot would have been in the bathroom or hallway maybe, that's where we have them here in Australia. Great video so sad history will be torn down. Thank you from Australia Ethan x
What is up, Ethan! 🙂
Thanks for preserving these awesome homes and architectural art from the past on video. These places won't exist soon. But, because of your work, and people like you, generations to come will be able experience, enjoy and be inspired by these places. 😊👍
Totally loved this house. I'd love to move in. Who cares if the kitchen is out of date, I like it the way it is. Loved the backyard too. Lots of space, nice pool, a fountain. Perfect. Thank you for the tour Ethan Stay safe and take care.
This house is gorgeous and huge
i can imagine joan crawford living in this mansion
That’s what I was thinking! Joan Crawford
Yes! I was thinking 🤔... could parts of Mommy Dearest have been filmed here? I wonder exactly who lived in this home, and what old Hollywood stars were frequent quests. Also, would the new owners be utilizing that great steel banister or cool Art Deco fixtures? My guess is they are selling them to some type of architectural warehouse etc. The outdoor stone loggia and garden are simply other worldly. I personally grew up in a ultra modern home, that quickly became dated. I always told myself my home would be classic and I would fill it with wonderful pieces that and would retain value and never go out of style. Fast forward to today, my 25 year old who did grow up in my dream home that became a reality- recently told me, he could not wait to create his dream home that would be high tech and super modern! He would refer to my antiques as “anfreaks”! LOL ! karma for telling my parents I hated living in our Jetson Space Ship!
Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.
@@d.d.4582 - Nah, that movie was made in California. (Notice the yard full of snow.)
That's what I said. It's like the mommy dearest house. Old Hollywood. 😁
Love it!! The staircase railing & basement are very Art Deco.
Such a stunning house and so immaculate. The homes that you explore have such a sense of history. It's so sad that it's another one that is being torn down. Thank you for chronicling these homes before they disappear. Keep up the fantastic job.
Great video and yes I would love to see the history of it when it gets demolished besides that the green bathroom reminds me of a hospital the color reminds me of an old hospital just had to say it’s just weird but you’re doing great keep it up love the house and can’t wait to see more
Love, love this home. Good job.
Thermostat. This place is stunning!! Ty for sharing!
Ethan, You're so good at giving us these tours... you always "crack me up." Great house!
Other than the green bathroom, there isn't a thing in this house I would change. It's stunning. Whoever demolishes it needs their head checking.
Edit just to say, I've never thought of moving to the States before, but I would for this house. The walkway at the end swung it for me. I can't believe something so beautiful is going to be destroyed. I need to sell up and move quickly to stop it!
Yeah the color on that one is a bit bright. But that muted pink bathroom is stunning.
I believe all of his videos are filmed in Canada.
No one :
Literally no one :
Ethan everytime there’s a mirror :
“WHAT IS UP YOU GUYS”
Please stop it
It’s annoying.
I love it lol
Ah i see, United of diversity ;)
@@rgrndu I enjoy it.
Enjoyed exploring with you! Indeed, very sad to be torn down!!!! Wish we could have explored the outdoors & landscaping.❤
Such an amazing property!! Everything about it is very cool! The downstairs with the bar is my favorite room I think! I really like your videos and they are getting better every single time you post one! Thanks for documenting these places! 😊❤
I'm sure the house they build there will be gaudy and atrocious! But then this house is also the style that suits my taste, so...
That kitchen is so blue omg I wanna live in this house omg
This Manson is so beautiful and so modern and have anything that can Not say what is it, but is something personal. Very nice, thank you to show us...
This house was awesome!! I wouldn’t change a thing! I remember all the color block fashion and that kitchen was unbelievable!!!
Beautiful home it's a shame there going to knock it down ❤❤❤
I hope they salvage some of the beautiful features in the home. The stairs alone must be worth a mint
Another gorgeous house,thank you Ethan for showing us
Great house Ethan, thanks for showing us
I think the room to the left of the main entrance that has a fireplace and the fan is probably the study room.
Oh My God!!! They are going to demolish that house!!! They suck, that is a Gorgeous house. Especially the bar area.
STUNNING! So incredible and immaculate. Love everything about this house, that staircase, the entrance, the flooring, everything. This home was so well made, what a shame that it got torn down, it should have been preserved. I love it just as it is in this video. Thanks for documenting all of these beautiful homes!
Thanks for new video. Love your vlogs. Love the toilet area in master bathroom
