Breathtaking Abandoned Oil Tycoons Summer Mansion Left Forgotten in the Mountains

This incredible historic old mansion was built in the early 1900’s during the gilded age for a wealthy family. They made most of there wealth from oil in the late 1800’s-1900’s and was able to build this large summer home as a getaway from the city. The mansion would remain in that family for only a short time as the Great Depression hit and the house was repossessed by the bank in the late 1930’s. It would sit vacant for years until a couple bought it in the 1960’s and restored the house with plans of making it a fancy bed and breakfast. Which lasted until the late 1990’s until declining business forced the doors too close for good. Sadly it’s now sat vacant for decades and is in pretty rough shape in some spots with large holes in the old asphalt shingle roofing. Really heartbreaking as there is so much gorgeous architecture and hand carved woodwork in this house no doubt made by master craftsman. So many incredible details in this place from the grand staircase, or the beautiful fireplace mantles throughout the house. Also the wooden floors in this house had some of the most stunning designs I’d ever seen. This place is absolutely incredible and deserves to be saved. So glad to have documented this historic old place in pictures and video so it’s not forgotten. Thank you for watching
