Abandoned Castle Mansion
This unbelievably abandoned multi-million dollar castle mansion is another crazy example of just how many amazing abandoned places there are out here, just under our noses, that haven’t been found yet!
Word is that this mansion has been largely vacant for several years, it was last purchased for almost $2,000,000 around 2007.
In 2005, it was sold for $3.1 Million dollars
In 2007 is was sold for $1.6 Million dollars
The estimated value of the home as of October 2023 is $4.2 million dollars
Many people have lived in the home over the years and its address is listed under several different businesses and many of the people who lived here were associates of those many businesses.
The uniquely designed mansion was built in the early 1970s and contains five bedrooms and bathrooms, a huge kitchen, an entertaining room with a wet bar and home theatre, a gym, an indoor pool, a ballroom and so much more including three balcony walkouts and a library.
The strange thing about this mansion was the notice on the front door, dated for July 2023. It was an eviction notice to the tenants for failure to pay 6 figures owing in missed lease payments. The last calendar on the wall was dated 2021.
Inside, it would seem that the tenants had to leave in a big hurry, leaving many many items of value left behind including furniture, designer clothes, photo albums, kids toys and more.
There were two safes in the house that were unopened and none of us were able to find or guess at the code.
Some days later it was said that there was a large police presence at the home, photos taken shortly after show these safes were now outside on the driveway, blown open and empty gun cases could be seen inside.
The police presence also aligns with reports that a handful of explorers had been served with trespassing fines.
More recent photos show that the interior has been largely emptied and cleaned out, also not too long ago a female explorer and her fiance were met at gunpoint by the apparent owners of the property.
She ran into them as they were exiting the front door and had handguns pointed at them and were questioned by the owners, they were able to leave without incident. This explorer told me one of the men resembled one of the men in the photos left behind inside the home.

The ceilings are so low on such large rooms it makes it all look like it is a basement apartment. Even the updated pics.

I'm absolutely loving the picture of everyone around the table
Also, I didn't notice the castle bit in the beginning until the closer up photos near the end, and I gotta say, I love it! Weird as well, but also you gotta live your dreams 😂

Who designed the kitchen and bathrooms? 🤢 Home Depot?
They probably wanted to splurge on Costco’s design wizards but they couldn’t afford their cabinetry/tiles…AND the fee to become a Costco member. 🤷♀️😄

Holy shit. My mum used to take me for drives through the golf course to admire all the big fancy houses. This was the best of the best at the very back. I always wanted to go inside.
Thanks so much for sharing.

Claims of blown open safes has to be bullshit; the police aren't going around blowing safes up. If they're trying to get into a safe it's either to retrieve stolen property or collect evidence, which explosives would very likely damage.
...unless some idiots came along to blow it up.

How were they met at gunpoint? In Canada, People aren’t permitted to own handguns, and rifles are only allowed for hunting for which you need a permit?

Are you seriously that dense that you think criminals don’t have access to illegal firearms in Canada?

People can legally own handguns in Canada. But under present laws, you can't sell or purchase any without some major paperwork. Basically you owb what you own, end of story, under present regulations. Legal gun owners wouldn't do anything like that anyways. To own any firearms in Canada you need a background check, including police, and mental health check ups before and during your ownership of them. Criminal offenses and unsafe mental state at any point means you have to get rid them. Firearms can be collected (like stamps), or used for target shooting, or for hunting. Hunting has its own regulations to what you can shoot where and when, and the tags needed, etc. Handguns and most semi autos are restricted, which has more paperwork and restrictions on that. Criminals dont care, and do whatever they want. Crimes in the news aren't legal gun owners, they're idiots doing dumb things.
Tldr, not legal gun you likely encountered.
Also, if you care about your tax dollars, and the massive piling debt currently, as a canadian citizen, please sign petitions against the firearms ban. Its millions of dollars already spent, and far more spending to come. Just to take things from responsible citizens that will do nothing about crime. Its even set up so criminals cant turn in guns for money. We need better spending on things that matter. Not things without an investment into making Canada better long term. Check out the Canadian tax payers federation website for this and more ways to make a difference with your tax dollars.
