$1M London Mansion Glows, Ivy Invades, BMW and Jaguar Hibernate

Abandoned mansion near London, worth over ÂŁ1,000,000, glows eerily as lamps burn after a decade, while nature devours a 19,000-mile BMW and a pristine Jaguar XK8. Urban explorer Colin Hodson calls it âa very strange one.â Why do people leave mansions abandoned? Can you visit with the power still running?
Inside, untouched souvenirs and a framed $75M oil contract rest beside decade-old cereal. The mansionâs bathroom remains nearly pristine, though ivy snakes through windows. Trending: what happens if you find an abandoned car? Are urban explorers prosecuted? âI cannot believe this is in here, this is crazy,â Colin says, as the Jaguar hibernates beneath dust and silence.
The houseâs kitchen hosts food with sell-by dates from 2014, while a $75M oil contract gathers dust in a living room where the lights and TV still work as if waiting for a ghostly viewing party.
