This was John sikuras house back in the day. I worked there in the mid 80's. Beside the big house where the 2 bins are sitting. There was a small 3bdrm cottage and at the bottom of the hill, was a 5 bdrm house. We the workers, (stable help) would have accommodations provided. The owners, John, Glenn and John Jr. Were great people to work for. They had million dollar horses and that farm was a foaling or birthing farm. I'm glad your doing this video and the sky high shots are amazing, keep up the great work. Brought me back to my youth.
@@iwatchtoomuchtruecrime The father came to canada and built his empire and now they are a very wealthy family The father mysteriously burned up in his cadillac, and there were some rumors going around that he was part of the mafia, (who knows) the farm was then handed down to one of the sons and eventually they sold the land to developers and moved the farm to king city ontario. The other son runs another farm in Kentucky. We used to ship horses to and from there for various reasons. They were fantastic people to work for.
@@mrboots066 It's interesting that there are so many Trophies there for Hilary Buller, guess its possible that the Buller family either owned it for sometime or was boarding there. William "Bill" Buller who passed away in December 2007 and was an Irish Equestrian in the 1972 Olympics. His son followed suit with equestrian competition in the Olympics in 1996 and his daughter is the one on the majority of the Trophies Hilary.
@@4N5W3R5 it's very possible. After I left, it could have changed owners. They did board horses to. Alot has changed since I was there. The subdivision built down the street now, was not there and the homes were so far apart, just empty land. Most of which were horse paddocks.
Thankyou for telling us that. For me it's sad to see such a place abandoned. I,m glad someone is going to do something with the property, hopefully find a use for the house.
This is the third different explore of this house that I have seen and as always, Noah does not disappoint. He always notices and focuses on unique details! Who knew there was a GREEN MARBLE fireplace in that bay window patio facing room? Nobody else gave close ups of the trophies. This almost felt like a whole different house with Noah behind the camera.
Love the sofa in the pool room, it could still be saved! Enormous stables, they must have had a lot of expensive horses trained in various genres by all the trophies and ribbons. Makes you wonder what happened to them all,probably sold off. It's a real shame developers get a hold of these properties. That house could have easily been made livable again, even the barns could have been re used for horses. The living space upstairs would definitely be for the head horse handler,they need to be on call caring for the horses 24 / 7, l would imagine. Another great explore.🦘🥰🤑😧😁
I think you're right and at least part of this home was built way before the 1960s. A lot of the original fixtures appear to be in place (front door, mouldings, especially outside the house on the upstairs veranda) and then the home was updated in the 60s (that wood and turquoise kitchen is a dead giveaway) and 70s or 80s (purple bathroom). Great tour as always.
Stables often had the area for worker to live, those are very nice stalls. Arena for horse to train in. Beautiful barn. The house is awesome, love the pool.
at 21:30 in the cedar closet there is a hexagon shaped box on the shelf. that is actually a fold out tool /parts box it keeps rolling out until it is flat. I have my great grandfather's out in the garage. coolest gadget ever.
Hey Noah great explore. I love these explores where you have to piece together what happened. I’ll just add my two cents. I know some folks have said it was a grow house that was busted by the cops. I don’t think so. I’ve seen those and they usually modify the heck out of the ventilation system. I didn’t see any of that here. I agree with you. It probably had several uses after being used as a home most recently some type of event space. Once it became abandoned it looks like the local PD has been doing some training there. The rounds you picked up look like some type of “marking” rounds. Police were probably practicing forced entry and stacking. Same with the stables. The hole your buddy pointed out looked like it was made by det cord. It looks like the owners may have had a riding school or done equine therapy there. The trophies were probably left by students. You’re tearing it up this summer my friend. Keep up the good work.
I wonder why they never put in a water filtration system? I've never seen rust staining that bad in any of the explores I've seen. Thanks for the tour Noah and glad to know you made it through surgery ok! 👍👍👍
Hey Noah, you’re looking well. This was an amazing explore. I still can’t figure out why they left all of those awards behind? Oh well, I guess we’ll never know. Take care
Now, this house SHOULD be preserved, especially the Horses Stables, that right there is so EXPENSIVE! They really SHOULD have tried to make it work, you know, you CAN tell Realtors NO!! Thats EXACTLY what I WOULD have said!!
It seems silly to have a knob in the middle then you still have to have a side bolt lock. 😂If I was on the other side of that door I’d have to step over to get out
Hey Noah, how are you? Pretty crazy find. Definitely a interesting house for sure. Crazy. So much left behind. Wonder how much the company paid the family for the property. Pretty neat and thanks.
Right away, that door knob in the middle of the door, that is something cool, to me anyway, and you know to install that door knob it probably takes a lot more than a traditional one. Also the kitchen being divided the way it is, you got the sink and dishwasher in the one side and then all the rest of the appliances on the other side such as oven and stove plus more sinks, pretty cool but it's different.
The apartment in the television series family affair had doors with center positioned knobs. An architect told me that the style of doorknob position was popular briefly during the 1960s. The problem was, when people open the doors from the inward swinging side, sometimes the edge of the door would hit the bridge of their nose, sometimes breaking their nose. This lead to lawsuits, so this style of door has pretty much disappeared. Especially from any property which is rented or open to the public. If you see this type of door, be careful!
I think it was a police training house. Creepy and really enjoyed it! Why would police use such a magnificent house as a training place? That seems strange. Thank you for a great explore!
I BIG pile of shit! Houses from that era used the cheapest basic plain material with gaudy stick ons to "try" and make it look like something expensive or glamorous. Instead they built a dark dingy depressing box with a bunch of rooms. These houses took away the real homes from earlier times because no one had any skills anymore to build anything better. That entire house & era needs to be sent to the dump! Looks like someone has already started the process ✌🥴☮
NOAH, MAYBE THEY WEREN'T "ABLE" TO TAKE THEIR TROPHIES WITH THEM. THESE PEOPLE GAD TO HAVE Wealth TO EVEN DO THE SIMPLE DAY TO DAY UPKEEP OF A PROPÉRTY THAT BIG, THEN FIGURE IN THOROBRED EQUINE AND THEIR UP KEEP. Sheesh, its likely they were attacked for their money or their horses or both. ....

I always love hearing from the people who lived in worked in these abandoned places. Do you have any idea how it ended up abandoned?

😱😭 what a beautiful barn, arena and stalls! What a shame. Ya stable hands would live upstairs from the barn. Thank you for the explore 😀 😊
Like today, barn bunkhouse, turned modern loft above horse stables on Heartland ranch, the popular long running (2007~)Canadian tv series🤠🐎
All this stables are worth a lot of money to get new! And they are in amazing condition. I hope they sell them, and don’t just trash them.

That was such an amazing horse stable and house, you do a really excellent job videoing Noah. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there 👍☮️🇺🇲

That was an amazing explore! Great as always😀
Absolutely loved that explore!! Thank you
Sort of creepy how that chair is facing the front door!! Almost like someone there expecting some one to just walk in!! Beautiful house!!
Excellent explore Noah! Love the drone footage as well! Thank you!!
The place looks pretty cool. Too bad it is getting demolished.
Thanks for the explore. 😀
Brent also found alot of bullet casings around, looks like they were cleaned up
Really like the house and the basement was so nice and bright!! Nice stables with the wood and metal stalls!! Thanks for sharing!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖
at 21:30 in the cedar closet there is a hexagon shaped box on the shelf. that is actually a fold out tool /parts box it keeps rolling out until it is flat. I have my great grandfather's out in the garage. coolest gadget ever.
Awesome place Noah. Great job as always!
Very good explore Noah. Quality as always. This house is huge. Great space though. 😊😊
Thanks for another great video dude

You’re tearing it up this summer my friend. Keep up the good work.
What a lovely place this must have been. Hope you are well. Thanks love the footsteps at the beginning.
Yes, the Rambler was a cool, smaller size car. There are people that collect Ramblers, so YES, that glass in those 2 cars is worth some money.
14:10 ...Billy Madison.."stop looking at me swan"
LMAO
Hahaha I thought the same thing!
Weird house, especially all the building stuff,tools,ect.
At the end....there was a summer camp sign (near where the horses coat was) interesting and neat place.
I think you should ask the developer about turning that into the clubhouse for the development be so cool to do that
I wonder why they never put in a water filtration system? I've never seen rust staining that bad in any of the explores I've seen.
Thanks for the tour Noah and glad to know you made it through surgery ok!
👍👍👍
That's cool the studio upstairs in the barn
Hey Noah, you’re looking well. This was an amazing explore. I still can’t figure out why they left all of those awards behind? Oh well, I guess we’ll never know. Take care
That’s super cool
Now, this house SHOULD be preserved, especially the Horses Stables, that right there is so EXPENSIVE! They really SHOULD have tried to make it work, you know, you CAN tell Realtors NO!! Thats EXACTLY what I WOULD have said!!
That’s amazing
NICE find. This is amazing.
Love the red walls and kinda sketchy with all the tape and what not
Hello very nice video as always bravo Noa bravo Brandon :-):-)
Bridals ropes and stuff like that. Saddles go over something like a horses back
Hi Noah
Amazing drone footage
Where you are looking at the kitchen and stuff is the stable managers apartment
see you there
What an amazing, and sad explore. I’m curious of the story here…
Thanks awesome video i enjoyed watching
Thank you for the video 😁
The lights hanging over the pool are not to today's code! 😳
Cool house!!! That police tape was weird.
Great exploration
I’d love there I’d fix it up make it more beautiful then it is
Looks like a boardroom table
I'd like to know how to purchase some of these abandoned propertys...I'm from USA but I've been wanting to move for very long time.
It seems silly to have a knob in the middle then you still have to have a side bolt lock.
😂If I was on the other side of that door I’d have to step over to get out
Where u able to find any back stories on the house?
Hey Noah, how are you? Pretty crazy find. Definitely a interesting house for sure. Crazy. So much left behind. Wonder how much the company paid the family for the property. Pretty neat and thanks.
I love it

That is a "butler's pantry."

The training staff probably lived upstairs in the center
I wish we had good places worth momentotarating like the States.
for you guys
That is definitely iron staining on the bathroom fixtures.
How do you find all these places? Land registry listings?
P.s. take me with you, I'm in wasaga and have watched hours of your videos 🙏
I think it was a police training house. Creepy and really enjoyed it! Why would police use such a magnificent house as a training place? That seems strange. Thank you for a great explore!
FBI and whoever else uses different types of houses for different scenarios. It adds more to their training is all. :-)
This place is owned by developers and will be torn down in no time.
Oh, nuuuuu! Not the golden shower! 😱😬☠
Haven't you ever heard of burnt out bulbs or remove bulbs
That's a awesome mansion I'm surprised they didn't have an inside bunker somewhere on their land.
My understanding of one of the videos i saw they said the place was raided. that is real police tape and ect. i do not remember why though
So they are set to tear down the house? Too
It’s sad
Seems like maybe a day care business? Wth that kitchen
what happened?
It won’t be abandoned for long because I bought it.
If was awesome.
the young generation
Maybe rad?

First you talk about the houses being taking about for reusable things ..then you act surprised about building materials everywhere???
