  • You’re about to see one of the most incredible abandoned mansions we’ve ever found. Originally built in 1988 with 12,000 square feet of living space right on the beach. This would be anyone’s typical dream home. In 2012 the mansion went up for sale and almost immediately after hitting the market it was sold for 5 million dollars to a family that came to America from Egypt. But just 6 months later a devastating hurricane slammed into the northeast causing substantial amounts of damage to the home and many other homes around. But that’s not why this mansion is abandoned. After the hurricane the family fixed the house and made it quote on quote “hurricane proof” and did many other upgrades bringing the property value to $7,000,000. But according to neighbors and anonymous sources. The family was doing some shady things to acquire their wealth. Quite honestly no one knew what these people even did to become so rich. Some say they were part of the mafia, some say it was drug lords, no one really knows who these people are. But one thing we did find inside of the home was foreclosure papers dating to 2014. Which makes sense being that there are 2 luxury cars left behind in the garage that have tags dated to 2014. People in the neighborhood say they were here one day and gone the next never to return. So let’s explore and try uncover exactly why this place is abandoned. So join me today and let’s see what’s left.

    This house was previously owned by Perry and Alex Criscitelli who were part of the Bonanno crime family. The current owner is Abdel asser Kamel Sheta Esmail who may be related to Gamal Abdel Nasser, an Egyptian military officer and politician who served as the second president of Egypt from 1954 until his death in 1970. It appears that the house was foreclosed because the owner did not pay the Homeowner Association Dues that were less than $10,000, Board of Directors of Ocean Gate Estates Home Owners Association Inc. - v. - Abdel Nasser Kamel Sheta Esmail et al. He also owes $55,623.07 for the property tax that was due on January 2, 2024, according to NYC Department of Finance.

It's a Smart Screen UHDTV too which means it's 4k resolution and that tech didn't become common until roughly the same time. Give or take some years. Def not tech from the 90's that's for sure lol.

    There’s a tide mark on the Mercedes from Hurricane Sandy, I assume the same for the BMW. This family bought the house just prior to Sandy, they repaired the house (next door was demolished) and had ‘nt got to the garage. Tax and sales records show they still own the house.
    The zebra print carpet and a lot of the furniture was in the house when they purchased it, going by the last for sale listing. Most other CZcamsrs are saying the husband was arrested and the family deported, but my research shows the wife is still in the area. The foreclosure you refer to was by the HOA, it’s listed in court documents, probably for Hurricane proofing their house without HOA approval I’m guessing.
    It has been listed several times since 2014 but always withdrawn

    Hey Bankz! I loved this video. I used to be an interior decorator for a couple of showrooms during 2007-2014, and one of them carried only the highest end furniture companies. It was my favorite job I've ever had! It's crazy because I recognize a lot of the furniture and rugs from those days and it's ALL from the most expensive lines, as you guessed. I can tell from the style of the decor that they had an interior decorator come through and do the rooms for them and furnishings. But then, like you were saying, all those tacky fuzzy comforters and things like that makes it clear the smaller items that they were purchasing themselves, they had no clue how to match colors and decorate. It seems like they must have had some young babies that they were having to feed, and rather go up and down stairs they just put a fridge and a microwave in the master so they could do bottles and whatnot easily. Maybe they had multiples like twins or triplets that made it difficult to manage.

      I mean, it really really doesn’t matter. The house is gonna get foreclosed on anyway everything‘s gonna go in the garbage so who cares if they take the stuff I never understood why you guys are humming and hoeing about why stuff gets taken who cares they’re in a whole Nother country, they fled for tax evasion. Do you really think they care about this stuff being taken? No they owe $55,000 and back property taxes. Do you think they give a damn about taking some stuff out of this damn house and it’s just gonna go to the landfill anyway, so somebody might as well take it.

And I loved the Grand stair case with the animal print carpet. The Master bedroom was pretty nice too, but the fridge and microwave in the bathroom…. That was just odd. And I love the observatory!!! What an amazing way to sit and think about God and his amazing creations!!! Thanks for the tour!!!

I was thinking of a possible hit squad or something but most folks just don't abandon something that at one point looks very costly. Someone mentioned a hurricane and probable flooding from the storm but I would mostly be concerned about the development of black mold!

      as another person said a place to take care of multiple kids... without having to go up and don stairs...
      or to keep someone in a place being as luxurious as could be.
      the basement with the Steve mcqueen car bed in the corner the huge screen with the little zebra print seats.
      excess of mountain due water bottles everywhere.
      ofc the ninja fruit splatter of ribena juice at the pool table an in the kitchen also make me feel bad.. super tasty juice what a waste.

They have no clue. They just have seen videos and watch stuff on TV and think all these things are expensive when reality this is just cheap junk, these are people that had some money, but they didn’t come for money the decorations they didn’t know what to do. They just went and bought a bunch of crap that they thought looked expensive.

      Proper English is "My husband and I" so they were correct.

    I love that nobody mentioned the MASSIVE pool of dried blood all over the floor by the pool table, at first I thought it was puke but that is definitely blood, it looks like somebody was shot and bled out or brutally butchered there.

      I think it's rust from metal rafters. The health department would make the bank clean up blood.

      It definitely looks like dried blood just an opinion but there seems to be such a large amount for it to be rust

    Los Angeles, Calif. here. Loved the observatory because of the Ocean view and sounds you'd het while up there. Not my taste in design but definately impressive. Good viewing. Thanks.

    Greetings from Phoenix, Arizona thanks for the great video! For me the home is gorgeous, but the interior decoration needs a BIG overhaul…lol😂 The colors are just too gaudy. The family should have went with more earth tone colors, warm and inviting. I would add some nice warm but rich wood flooring to complement the marble. The basement was giving me big Spec Ops: The Line vibes, looked like maybe it was really flooded at one time? My favorite part of the home was the kitchen, the appliances…😮‍💨🤤😍‼️👍

    I cannot imagine why ANYONE would want anything so grossly overdone as this. I like nice things as much as the next person, but geez/Louise!!! Can you imagine have to keep a house like that CLEAN? Even if you had all that space to have friends/family come to stay with you at the beach, the space does not even make sense. You'd need a whole staff to just to keep up with the house, no way just a housekeeper alone would be enough. A maintenance man, grounds keeper, live in child care, cook..... the list goes on.

    That is so sad to see the writing on that red BMW. After watching more of the video you covered up some bad sayings that were in the bedroom, it is starting to make me think that this family was targeted. Thank you or honouring the family and covering up the nasty words in that room.

    These people were very dirty! Doesn’t look like she had a house cleaning staff ? I know it’s been abandoned, but even in her red BMW there was kids junk and food wrappers all on the floor? Yikes!
