It's not often I fall in love with a location but here....just wow.

I saw a couple of photos of this place on Flickr a couple of weeks before I flew out to the states and instantly knew I had to find it - a fair bit of googling later I had it's location pinpointed and I couldn't believe it was actually within a couple of hours drive of one of the places I'd be staying with my exploring buddy. To say I was pleased is an understatement!

I've explored a few mansions now, mostly on mainland Europe but this one blew them out the water in my opinion. I am not embarrassed to admit I do have a little bit of a staircase fetish and I took more photos of the stairs in here than I have done in any other location. It's such an imposing building from the outside sat right at the top of a hill overlooking a load of newly built soulless 'mini mansions', it has a real sense of presence and it had an effect on me (as if you couldn't tell from my ramblings already).

Thanks for looking

Gorgeous! I wish I could find something like that here. Someone needs to save it and turn it in to a home again!

Fantastic!! You could you not fall in love with that location?

Very nice!

Nice work on this place. Glad you got to see it, and you did an excellent job of photographing it!

Beautiful! I want that staircase.

Wow... now THAT is a mansion. Love the central fireplace when you walk in and the multi-level railing and stairwell. Abandonment pics of a house like this are actually enhanced by the floorspace emptiness.

Well done, I love this place.

Thanks guys, it was my favourite spot I explored on my trip by far. I'd go back tomorrow if I could!

I remember seeing photos of this place sometime over the past couple of weeks, maybe from somebody else on here?

I loved it and actually saved a couple of photos just because I enjoyed looking at this place so much. I can't blame you for having fallen in love with the location. It looks amazing.

Great photos, you shot this place well and it's nice seeing other rooms inside of it that I never seen in the last person's set.

Why is it i missed this?!? Amazing house. Wonder if anyone is going to get it and restore it. It would be a shame if they didn't. For a home this large i was surprised the kitchen wasn't much more elaborate. Great pics!

Wow!

Dead. Solid. Perfect.

Wow, that's a cool place! So much decay and no vandalism = urbex porn!

What a place, good stuff. Needs a lil TLC.

hahaha. i got chased out by the neighbors. great pix.

great looking place.

Beautiful!

Thanks everyone, unlucky on the neighbour front eyevolve - we got lucky as the weather that day was awful so nobody was out and about!

wow 7!!
