He had loads of houses, his proper house was in Connecticut and was absolutly MASSIVE and he sold it to 50 Cent. I think he has since sold it. Must be 4 or 5 times the size of the one on the site above.
Since he went bankrupt about 5 years ago he has gone proper nuts IMHO, his last fight in 2005 was a joke and after that he seems to have given up.

Id say its been abandoned for less than 1 year, plants would die without water and theres not much dust on any surfaces.
Would make a nice squatters house!

Regardless of it being abandoned i find it very hard to believe that you could just walk around that place as you wished and there is no sercurity.
That place would have been stripped clean by now if any hill billies or scum can just walk in there.
Impressive but largely tacky place though.

I think it's in the middle of nowhere hence it not being vandalised much yet. Plus it's freezing cold there.
It's like an Urban explorer code not to remove/steal/break anything.

That's a cool house, but yes very tacky. You imagine when looking at the photos what might have been going on when he was in there, probably not all good either.
Such a waste that it is left like that.

Amazing house...the swimming pool was a bit creepy though but what a great place to explore! Seems almost sad in a way because he's gone so crazy now!

Correct. That thread showing the Longbridge site was awesome. Cars just sitting around with keys in them and such.
