A phenomenal mansion that was once built for a family that envisioned it exactly how they wanted for the era. Let me know, which room would you hangout more in ? The pool room, or the living room? It's hard to pick ! Thank you guys for watching and having continuous support ❤️

Some of the best architecture in an abandoned mansion that I’ve ever seen

These people were way ahead of there time. This home is gorgeous and can totally be restored. I'm sad to hear its going to be torn down.

That is without a doubt the coolest indoor pool you'll ever see in someone's house.

I don't think this is being torn down. Looking at the most recent satellite view of it, the windows have been restored and the garden has been cut and made basically back to normal. It seems the new owners are restoring it.

I’m a preservationist so nothing gets me more fired up than beautiful places like this getting demolished. This home is absolutely gorgeous. I swear appliances made back then were way better and heavy duty compared to the junk we have now. Oh to have grown up in the 70’s 😫

It's mind boggling that no one jumped on this house. Contemporary Mid-Century is all the rage with this style of architecture going for bundles of bucks. What a gem this is...I'd kill for that console alone & that 6 legged 9 foot sofa...OMG. I wish somebody could save this treasure!

Only 15 seconds into the video and allready know this is the type of house I would live in. Love this style of architecture!

For those curious about details: This is the Milton Gilbert House by architect Norman Jaffe, 1976 - 11 Autumn Terrace, Alpine NJ. Sold in 2003 to Canfield Enterprises, which also owned the land next door. Abandoned for about a decade. Sold in 2022 to 11 Autumn Terrace LLC. Tragically, instead of being renovated, it will be destroyed in 2023 and a new house built on the site.

I could totally see this home being renovated. I could see it having a second life as a living space/recording space for musical artists. With all the real wood the acoustics must be amazing. If I was a rich producer I would definitely look into it.

The new home that will be built on this property will never compare to the home that was. Never. I would pay so much money and would put in the hard work to rebuild this beautiful masterpiece of a mansion! Takes your breath away.... could you imagine?!?

1970s architecture was perfection. 👌🏻

Absolutely AMAZING with some semi vintage masterpieces, which would be foolish to demolish, never to be seen in such original form again. Detail and thought with such craftsmanship throughout is rare to see and I thank you for sharing this with us. I'm intrigued to know about the Family now. Who they were? Why they left and where they are living now. If this orignal home is anything to go by, I can imagine their next one is incredible! Just wow!

The fact this is being demolished n its in great shape slightly water damage is insane to me because I think 60-70s homes are the best designed homes

Designed by renowned architect Norman Jaffe. Whoever purchased this home is going to tear it down and build a massive new mansion. A shame to destroy this elegant contemporary time capsule…but the location is amazing

This place gives me a very heavy feeling of nostalgia!! Born in 70 seeing a house w 60-s 70-s vibe really makes me wish I could have grown up in that house & had a blast!! Thank you for sharing I think that house is fascinating!!! Gives me all kinds of feelings!!

At 9:38 that room was for formal dining and the cupboards were for serving dishes and china. The area you think is for a TV was for art and buffet service. I grew up in these types of homes and it is a real shame this will be destroyed. The clothing was just tossed there and unless it was table clothes or napkins it wasn't kept there. I hope someone will be salvaging everything worth taking in this house. Even the wood where possible. Just the sound the hinges made closing up the stereo cabinet say quality.

I cannot believe this architectural masterpiece is going to be demolished!! What is WRONG with people???????

The wood and stone work in that house was beautiful. But that pool room... EPIC!! Can you imagine laying back on a float, chill music playing and just staring at that ceiling? I'd be lost in thought for hours. lol Glad that you got to get footage before it's demolished.

OH MY GOD!!!! THIS HOUSE IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!!😮😮😮😮

Beautiful woodwork throughout and I love the natural stone walls. Just a note: it looked like the closets were lined with cedar. Cedar wood was commonly used to repel moths and their larvae from destroying wool garments. My grandparents had a cedar lined closet for this very purpose.

76 BORN HERE. How incredibly sad that this masterpiece was going to be knocked down? The architecture and mid-century design is stunning. I cannot believe that a buyer would not want to purchase and keep the house. AMAZING find and video, guys! This house inspires me so much that I will save your video for my renovation inspiration. Imagine the styling and furniture from the 70's. Imagine some Mel Torme tracks being played on that sound system as you entertain your friends with cocktails and canapes.OMG - this is a masterpiece. A film set. WOW WOW WOW. Triple thumbs up 👍👍👍

Sometimes I forget that 50 years ago was the 1970s and not the 1940s 😅Really cool home!

I felt genuinely sad knowing this would be torn down. This was definitely my fav exploration so far!

That house is so beautiful! Most of us could only dream of owning a place this nice

Nothing in this home is of inferior quality...every detail is truly designed ...as someone trained in Architecture,I can appteciate the work in all aspects from design,to specifications and to construction...one of the most beautiful 70s mansions I've seen on exploration channels..great explore..thanks So sorry to think it will be torn down and probably some typical homes to replace it...

I love 70s architecture so much from the beginning of the decade to the end. I was born in '76 and can still remember a bit of the late 70s designs changing into the early 80s. Lots of brown and orange for sure, but everything looked so good. It was so great to experience and much better than the drab, plain, lifeless desgins and colors that we have today. If I ever get a house I'm going to decorate it in early to mid 70s with a lot of brown, orange, yellow, green and red. Even with vintage appliances, lighting and shag carpeting. And I'm going to have an early 70s station wagon to go with it. Who here remembers the 70s and enjoys the designs too?

A cryin' shame someone isn't renovating this amazing place. Can't believe it's all being destroyed.

It's got that partying with Linda Carter, Erin Grey and pool with James Caan vibe

Why would they demolish such a beautiful place? I was born in 71 I would love to live in a place like that!!!

Whoever designed it, was a person with excellent taste. It is an architectural masterpiece. The house is among the most beautiful he has ever seen. The decor, however, is tacky. It seems that the last owners were not the ones who built it. Very different tastes. Lots of games for children, but no bedroom for them. Very strange, disturbing.. Beautiful exploration! Greetings from Italy!

The lack of dirt, dust vandalism is amazing. Some of the services are shiny. Usually these abandoned homes are trashed and stripped.

You would’ve thought they’d of had the kitchen replaced at some point over the years, to still have all the original features is quite astonishing, you know what rich people are like, they love renovating every 5 mins

What a beautiful home. The woodwork is amazing. Such a shame that the vandals got to it 😡

This place is really nice. The possibilities to decorate it any way you like it are limitless. To hear it's going to be torn down is sad. Truly a gem and one of a kind.

If I had the money, I'd buy this place in a heartbeat. Such beautiful architecture that you don't see anymore. Just watched this thinking "This is my 70's dream home right here. I love it." It kinda breaks my heart to know it's being demolished. Such beauty gone to waste.😢

Who in his/her right mind would demolish a beautiful place like that? If I had the money for it I would have bought it and just do a renovation keeping much original, this definitely looks like a dream home.

What a beautiful retro home. The living room with all the natural lighting, the bar and the drop down sitting area are so cozy. The master bathroom and bedroom are just WoW!! This could easily be used for a movie location. I can't believe its being demolished :o( Great explore Devon and thanks for putting the record player back and shutting the entertainment doors. So respectful :o)

There are soooo many materials in this home that could be reclaimed. All that amazing wood. Those closets are all cedar and the hardwood floors would come right up. You cant get wood like that anymore unless its reclaimed. I really would be petitioning the current owners to let me come in and take any of the materials for reclaim purposes before it was demolished! That is to say nothing of the amazing light fixtures that would sell on the secondary vintage market. I really hope someone is going to do that.

Crazy that a place as nice as that ended up being abandoned - you figure someone would have jumped on it. Such a shame to see it rot away like that.

This is one of the best. I wouldn't even refurbish a 70s house like this. Looks terrific. Guy for scale in the pool was a good call, didn't see it was that big. Shame about not filming the ceiling above that little bathroom window, I got the idea there was a window (for ventilation?) up there. Would be a smart move. Also did you notice how these three upper deck reclined seats are for sunbathing? This house has a really smart designer. Calendars look Indonesian, like the interior. Only these people had extra good taste. Those glass faucet orbs are mental. The faucets seem to swans rather than geese. Absolutely love the video, keep it up man.

Dang, that is an awesome quality exploration. I am reminded of The Proper People. cheers

Wow I was so enthralled by the beauty and architecture of this home. Absolutely stunning. From the colors, to the flooring, the ceiling designs everything was so unique and well thought of.

Those weren't records, they were Laser Discs. They were scattered and broken all over in the hallway to the pool. Laser Disc players were more popular in Japan then here overall, especially due to Karaoke, hence all the karaoke discs. Kinda hard to do Karaoke on vinyl, they don't do video too well. That stereo setup was typical 70's Hifi, though probably a fairly expensive one for its time. They just had a custom cabinet made to hold it all and built in the speakers on the ends. The stereo tuner is just a typical cabinet kind, hung down in there by it's faceplate to save space. Ditto for the turntable. Tapedeck was probably a very early one. It's pretty obvious that the place had a significant remodel in the late 80's/early 90's, then probably another one in the early 2000s judging by the decor. There's really not a lot of the 70's left in it other than the kitchen appliances and that sound system. Still a neat house. The sink in the office or whatever that room had been was part of another bar. Would have had all your liquor and glasses up on those glass shelves. The thing in the garage was a fooseball table.

If I had money I would buy this mansion and try to restore it leaving the same classic architecture

Im only half way through the video and i am GAAAAAAAAGGGGGING on the perfection of this home!! It will haunt me forever… being a 70s baby this is my dream home. Something about it just sang to me the second I saw it. I’m deeply heartbroken, even mortified anyone would abolish the home. I’d do anything to get my hands on such beautiful state of the art perfection. Thanks for sharing. The glowing feeling I feel inside thanks you abundantly. Who knew I needed this. Now I just need a little 70s elevator department store music. There was no better era of humanity than the 70s. What a time. Such balanced harmonious bliss. Though I was only a child, I’m so happy to have been alive to see humanity at that stage. Where you wife saw black white asian and everything in between join forces and love one another for the first time in history. It was a time to be alive!😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

this mansion is one of my favorite I've ever seen in abandoned exploration videos. I am watching your version/ perspective now and I love it so much!! I wish I could walk around it but I'm so glad I can watch this video thank you!

Oh that Kenwood system is the bomb. I hope they salvage alot from this beautiful home. I'm an 80s baby,but that home spoke to me...such a waste😭😭 Thank you for filming this magical and majestic location.

The stone work in this home is incredible. The marble work in the bathrooms. Marble even clads the ceilings!!

This place kills me. So angular and cavernous and groovy. Great video, bud. 🖤

Sad this is being knocked down. Its weirdly so rare to see a mansion that looks like a proper home but this one. It has genuine character

That was heartwarming when you've fixed the rekord player❤ The house is phenomenal, I love the wood and stone decor, which spreads a warm atmosphere. Beautiful, and so sad that this place will be demolished soon🥺

An amazingly beautiful home that deserves to be saved and lived in again, not destroyed. A pity, for sure. Thanks for the great tour!

This house is absolutely amazing! I could imagine it filled with furniture, people and love.

Love the wood, natural stone , and the endless windows letting in the wonderful natural light !

I am in love with this house. Absolutely in love. I wish I could swoop in and save it. Demolishing it is an absolute crime.

I love the kids bathrooms with the pretty flowers on the walls. The woodwork is stunning!

If it hasn’t been mentioned already, that table top game you guys were playing is called foosball! The one you were playing on is probably a collectors item worth thousands!! 😮

I appreciate the respect you show the home. There isn't much that i would change about that house, honestly. Maybe updating one of the bathrooms a bit, but nothing crazy. Absolutely beautiful.

Gorgeous, gorgeous home! It's amazing what people spend their money on when they are rich. So sad this will be torn down. I would LOVE the chance to live there! Great explore Devin! You find the best homes. Looking forward to the next one❤

Excellent find, great job on filming. This place is phenomenal. I'm an architecture nerd and vintage electronics geek, abd this video had me in absolute awe. Very cool, looking forward to ur next posting, as always. 😎👍

That’s for sharing this beautiful home. I loved the tour! It’s a shame it will be demolished.

I so so so enjoyed that. Thank you so much, for capturing, on video, what you could, before it was gone, forever. I was happy and sad, all at once. Such a smart young person, you are, for realizing, the value in that treasure. My favorite thing about the home was: the encorporation of the natural light throughout.

It is just so sad that it is/ was going to be torn down…. This exploration you did gave me chills just imagining the get togethers and how full of life the home once was. Regardless of the vandals and the minor water damage, this could’ve been restored and put on the market. Unfortunately, that won’t be the case. But this was truly a beautiful place.

Those where not all vinyl records. I spotted a shiny side, so probably laserdisc. those were some of the most expensive media ever made. Also seeing the petronas towers on that calendar makes me think they were Malysian. The Newspapers seem to be in Mandarin which is also spoken in Malaysia. I found out via Wikipedia that there are quite a few Mandarin written American newspapers, and that list didn't include the New York Times, which I later found out also has a Mandarin translation. The game in the garage is called Kicker or Foosball.

I hope this isn't being torn down. This is a beautiful home. I love everything about it .

This home is beautiful, and honestly with a little modernization. It could still be very contemporary, even now. I also wanted to point out that I’m very proud that you noticed. It was a bidet this time and not a second toilet but those weren’t vinyls they were laser disc just for the next video. :)

The fence around it does kind of say demo, but the fact that there are boards on the windows seems like they are trying to save it. I did this house a few months ago. It was a fun explore. Apparently as of last year it had full power. When i tried to do it around that time, there was a car sitting in the driveway with someone in it when we went at night. Super sketchy, so we left.

I love when I get your notifications! Having a rough morning so a great distraction! A very cool one! 🌸✌️💜wow the wood! I wish they'd let habitat for humanity come in and take anything they can use! The guestrooms even had doors to come in and out of from outside! What a great find!

Wow, what a wonderful house! I feel like recreating this in 3d, this is just such an awesome place.

Wow this music at the beginning is so fitting in. The living room is my favourite of all rooms.😁 Just imagine, this house could be a place for an old James Bond movie from the 60s. So beautiful. Maybe if I would have that much money, I also woul buy me a house like this.

Homes like this one should be kept around! Very unique and expensive architecture! I really liked all the wood around the pool! All cedar closets!! Master suite with office that could be a private living room.

Binge watching all my favorite time capsule houses on this rainy day here in Trenton ❤

Love that home ,it looks hugh! The stone work and wood ceilings beautiful. Very modern but nothing to far out.

oh wow this kind of 70's architecture, look so organic and confy, a pleasure to live in, in comparison with recent objects.THank you for exploring and sharing ;)

Sold for $6,500,000 in 2022, 11 Autumn Terrace, Alpine NJ

Thanks for doing this explore for all of us to see, so gut wrenching to hear that the place is going to be torn down. That's an example of architecture that is being lost and done so well. The place has "good bones". The soccer game thing is "foosball". The record things you found are actually "Laser Discs", something that pre-dated DVDs. Their data storage was similar to a CD, so the amount of video storage was limited hence their large size. Also most movies you had to actually flip the disc halfway through (they were 2 sided like a record) they were heavy and really really susceptible to finger prints. Even some longer movies could be 2 discs! Also, great audio tracks you guys picked for the b-roll!

Gorgeous house. Gorgeous. I think it’s my favorite abandoned explore ever and sincerely am inspiring place. My favorite area is the living room.

That pool room is epic. Imagine if they boarded over the pool temporarily and had a DJ up on the balcony... Epic

Very cool Danish Modern! The room with the large crystal chandelier was the dining room.

5:20 Of course the drawers had labels printed on them with fake wood. This was STANDARD for refrigerators of the 1970's. 😂 36:59 - Foosball Table

Omg! I just saw this video and channel. Totally love it. And I just think this house cannot be demolished, it just break my heart. It’s a dream house

That is gorgeous! Oh my God! What a beauty!

This is like my dream home. Really wish they would restore it and no knock it down. Its beautiful

holy crap! the amount of Teak wood in that place! they took down a whole forest it looks like!!

It upsets me so much that anyone would tear that place down. It's a gorgeous place and I feel like it could be modernized while maintaining the original feel. That's the state of the market though, the lot is all anyone cares about. What a shame. After watching the whole video, I'm not sure I've ever watched an urbex video that made me want to cry. That wood is so beautiful that I just can't comprehend how you could tear it down. I'm literally in tears.

Thank you. I really like the respectful way you talk about what you're showing us.

This home is beautiful! I'm so sad th hear it will be demolished! The structure with the wood and stone is amazing. It just needs to be refurbishished. Such a shame to lose these pieces of wonderful and unique architecture 😢

Shame this is being knocked down and not renovated, it really is a nice place. Why knock it down? I suppose the only reason would be to make apartments instead, means more money for the buyer, but the house itself is pretty special. Shame. Great exploration.

I know I'm late to the comment party, but I'll give it a shot anyway. This is one of the most innovative, unique, yet cozy estates I've ever seen. It's heartbreaking to think that one family's dream home will soon be just a fond memory. Had this been my dream mansion, they would have to call a SWAT team to get me out! (New subscriber here)

That game table is Foosball. And thank you for being so respectful. That place was most likely built in the mid 70's by magnificent master carpenters and stone masons. And the massive glass panels! Stunningly beautiful. Those craftsmen are very hard to find today. The knowledge has just disappeared. Hard to believe there's not much more water and sun damage. The globe light fixtures and gold bathroom fixtures throughout the house are definitely 80's. To me, the core of the house, the entertainment spaces seems to have been been the original portion of the structure with several of the bedrooms and smaller hallways etc, added later. Just going by the building materials used. But that place is/was truly incredible. And you are so right, it's such a sad thing for a house with so much beauty and artisan quality to be demolished. And you are right about the seasons too. I lived in a panoramic house and being in rooms with so much glass surrounding you even from the roof, you feel as if you are in one gigantic snowglobe in the winter! You have a great imagination!

The house has a timeless beautiful design. It is worth to keep this mansion.

You leaving drawers and cabinets open drives me insaaaane

Love the 70s ! Great video and place.

Oh i love this place...the architecture and design are amazing 😍

I'm really glad you have at least preserved the beauty of this home. It is a frickin' shame they are demolishing such a gorgeous home like this when it could be refurnished as opposed to being replaced by some (likely) modern garbage. I can certainly say they don't make homes like this any more, so it is tragic; but we can still enjoy it thanks to you!

amazing. so sad it's just going to be leveled. this place has such a potential.

Beautiful house. Would be a shame to demo. But if they do, hopefully some of it, especially the wood, could be salvaged for repurposing. 🤞

Man that 70s retro style looks so cool to me. all the old appliances too with all their analog instruments. I wish we still made homes like this

Nothing like an awesome 1970s mansion. I love these!!
