Abandoned million dollar mansion in the middle of the woods

Million dollar mansion? Middle of B.F.N., complete with armed, pissed rednecks? Alarm systems and police?

You bet I'm in.

Was looking for a good place to go swimming and fishing around Lake Ray Roberts and we stumbled upon this amusing little gem, and lo and behold, Cpt. Slow manages to get in. By sheer luck more than anything. Anyway, enjoy. We'll call it the Cedar Mansion.

I apologize for the total lack of artistry in my shots... This one was very seat of the pants type of explore, we only stayed maybe 20 minutes. Lots of nosy neighbors who get pretty mad with big guns, police coming... Etc.

1. The view from the front


2. The view from the back


3. Nice little koi pond, fed by the pool


4. Stinky, stinky pool. The barn in the background was a huge garage with lifts and a loft... The mechanic's dream... Sadly it was locked down tight.


5. Fuckers even had their own slide


6. Ok enough of this, let's head inside. The entryway. All the power was still on, so were the alarms! Yikes! Sadly, the A/C was not.


7. The rather grand living room. Again, I'm sorry for the terrible shots, this was VERY run and gun.


8. Beautiful fireplace


9. Sadly, there were about 5 or 6 dead birds in here... One was still alive. I think they were flying down the open flue and then couldn't get out, and ended up dashing themselves to death against the windows...


10. Sitting room across from the living room


11. Jesus, even the hallways were nice.


12. The kitchen and enclosed deck


13. More kitchen


14. And a VERY cool dining room!


15. The dining room overlooks the pool at about knee level.


126. Ok, back to the living room. Let's head upstairs.


127. Overlooking the living room


128. Gorgeous bedroom


42. Home office. God I like this house.


43. Little living room upstairs


44. Smoker's balcony with a tree growing through it


67. At this point, we had to beat a hasty retreat... Just a few quick shots. Back down the stairs on the back porch a nice little bar


99. Oh yeah and a jacuzzi!


100. Aaaand we're out. Deuces!

Man, talk about pristine. Looks like it was very recently vacated. Looks like someplace that really needs a good set amount of time to take it all in completely.

I had to look at it twice when I first viewed the thread. I thought I was losing it.

Damn, amazing clean then. Guess cause the neighbors are busybodies who call the cops every time someone glances at the place.

That is an AWESOME house.
Sad about the birds, though.

Whoah! That looks exactly like a home I visited in northern Michigan. It, too, was out in nowhere land.

I'll have to disagree with it being a gorgeous house, though. It looks very inefficiently designed, dark, and full of superfluous space.

Most of it is the shitty, shitty job I did of shooting it on full out mode. I pretty literally jogged through the house pointing the camera at shit and blindly pushing the shutter button staring through the windows at the dude staring at me through the windows and guessing how long I had before the cops made it out to butt-fuck nowhere, lol.

It was very bright inside, everything smelled like cedar, and the floorplan flowed very well... I'd love to own it.

FUCKIN SWEET. All that wood made me drool.

Damn, I wasn't even trying to make that sound perverse.

I always just scratch my head about places like this. Repo? Tied up in an Estate? Bankruptcy court?

Why is this house empty. I wish they could talk.

It looks too clean to be a repo and no for sale signs in your pictures.

I am almost 2 hours away and the Dallas folks have snatched up every lake lot to build houses on. There has to be a reason.

Great find! But like others have mentioned, I wonder what happened and the fact that it's been vacant for that long!!! It looks like the people just recently left. Thanks for posting! Man, I would love to check that place out. With it smelling like cedar would be a plus!
