    I always wonder how these places remain abandoned. If I found a derelict mansion in the woods I’d have myself a new clubhouse. Asbestos be damned.

      Having a large house will give you a large bill for power, water, heating, cleaning and repairs, especially if it comes with a large pool. And you probably need a gardener or a lot of free time to prevent the property from overgrowing with weeds and trees.
