  • This piece is one out of a series of pieces profiling luxurious homes in North Carolina. While most of the pieces were with an "MTV Cribs" influence, profiling a regal estate such as the Vanderbilt Mansion in Asheville, NC required a more stately approach. I hope you like it.

    While the house may seem big, keep in mind there were many more than just three people living there. The maids, the cooks, the butlers, the grounds keepers, the chuffers, and so on. Not to mention guests that stayed also brought their own servants as well. The entire estate was designed to be a working residence, thus it's more akin to a hotel than a house.

    I loved the tour of the Biltmore Estates and the classical music.

    The place was beautiful when I visited. Loved the pool that was under the house. Their is a chess set that was Napoleon Bonaparte, that was purchased.

    I visited back in 1996, and if you let your imagination take over, you can visualize living at Biltmore. Truly a magnificent estate. And to think only three people lived there, not including servants.

    All those fireplaces & the house is still standing. Maybe the central heating helped. Good your.

    I didnt know Biltmore was built by the Vanderbilts. Is Anderson Cooper involved in any way with the running of this magnificant estate?

      No. Different wing of their family. His wing of the family became completely broke.

    I see the chains or ropes are in the pool to hold the children. Evil!

    And I was younger like a member many many times going to The Abbey to eat in Atlanta Georgia this why I live pretty much my young life it was originally I think on West Peachtree but they moved it it was an old church and the latest were like they look like monks I look like a monastery the way this were dressed in their Monastery monk outfits the rest of us the menu was on Scrolls ever yeah the food was spectacular The Abbey is still there as a matter of fact but they relocated it somewhere else in Atlanta and I'm not quite sure but yeah I remember those days very much.

    wth why is it u cannot see the interiors of any of these mansions,,, its good publicity & curiousity makes one want to see it

    • @diwi1942
      @diwi1942 Před 6 lety

      You can now take pictures when you tour but no flash photography. It used to be not allowed. I have many pics of the interior.
      If you're ever in the area its well worth the expense to see it.

    If he met Warren Buffet in time, he wouldn't build it. Buffet is obviously happier, knowing that he sleeps 8 hours a day.

    a humongous house for just three family members and 100+ servants??? Is that really what you call home? hm....I rather have a smaller house....it will definitely be creepy at night...

    • @Sippy309

      Jyanne Skye Id probably go broke hiring extra security guards at night. Id be so paranoid. How do people acquire such wealth. Thats not a house.

    • @diwi1942
      @diwi1942 Před 6 lety

      Remember this was built during the gilted age 100 plus years ago. A whole different lifestyle. Once Cornelia left she never returned. Her ex husband saved the estate from falling into ruin. Its privately owned by the Cecil family, great grandson of George.

    • @diwi1942
      @diwi1942 Před 6 lety

      If I remember from a tour this was a "cheap" version compared to other Vanderbilt homes. George didn't inherit as much as other family members since his job was to take care of his mother.
      I would love to see The Breakers one day, that was a Vanderbilt home but no longer in the family.
