Ninja Turtles Mansion
Link to the video:
Let's take one last look at this large abandoned $15 million mansion, the ground floor including the staircase!!
Update: Before I posted this video there was a gas leak at this house likely caused by scrappers looking to remove copper from the home. The explorer contacted the fire department and/or gas company and I would assume that the problem has since been dealt with.
A few new points of note, the stuffed Ninja Turtle found in this house is actually Donatello and not Leonardo, my mistake. The family that owned this house may have been Italian considering the two (or three) kitchens located within the home. This makes sense as it looked as though there were multiple living spaces within this home, possibly for extended family members to all be able to live together.
I spent some time researching this property and stumbled upon what I thought was information regarding the owners, turns out that was a dead end as the two properties had a similar address. However, I was later able to find out some other details about this property that are equally as interesting.
This $15 million dollar home built in 1975 which sits on 50 acres was listed for sale several years ago but never sold, obviously the house in itself is not worth $15 million, it is the land that holds the real value. There is another separate building on this property which was leased more recently for $1400 a month which was actually a pretty good deal considering its size. I currently have no idea what is going on with the property but the home sits vacant and likely awaiting demolition at some point in the future.
