Who wouldn’t be captivated by the thought of a sprawling mansion with a vast open floor plan, lakeside views, and striking modern architecture?
It’s a homeowner’s dream — as long as they don’t mind the broken windows and scattered construction materials on the floor.
Once owned by Grant Forest Products magnate Peter Grant, the Peter Grant mansion in Haileybury, Ontario, Canada, is believed to be the largest house in the country. However, the 65,000-square-foot home has famously been abandoned and left to deteriorate over the years.
