We never know what’s hiding in the wooded areas of the Old Line State. This unique abandoned mansion in Maryland was discovered by urban explorer and YouTube user Your Purkz. The discovery by an urban explorer makes this mansion even more exciting; it’s a slice of abandoned MD that was totally unknown until Your Purkz stumbled across it. Using both a drone and handheld video camera, he captures all the details of the mysterious mansion. If you think this structure looks intriguing from the outside, just wait until you see what was found inside.

Located in Boyds, this weathered mansion sits overlooking Seneca Lake.

The large home and property could indicate that it was once owned by a wealthy family, or perhaps it was a summer home given its proximity to Seneca Lake. Either way, you can imagine a time when this property would have been alive with people and well-loved.
Several things still remain at the property, including classic cars...

It turns out that it wasn't just the building that was abandoned. It's almost like the owners just up and disappeared one day, leaving all their belongings behind them.
