Inside creepy abandoned £6m mansion once owned by Osama Bin Laden’s family… just down the road from Disney World Florida
AN URBAN explorer has revealed the creepy remnants of Bin Laden’s abandoned Florida home.
The eerie mansion has been abandoned after years of owners, including terrorist Osama’s brother, Khalil Bin Laden.
The five-bedroom family home overlooking a lake was built in Oakland, Florida, in 1928, and is a short drive from Disney World.
Reports say the 9/11 mastermind visited the property, and his children even played on its grounds.
In 1980 Khalil, the brother of Osama Bin-Laden, bought the £1.3million property for his wife.
YouTuber Steve Ronin filmed his exploration on the abandoned property, which had arched doors and a massive swimming pool in the backyard.
The floor to ceiling marble bathroom – no doubt used by the former al-Qaeda terrorist – has been left in disrepair.
As Steve walked into the kitchen, he filmed gorgeous tile floors and a large window overlooking the front yard.
One room featured stunning vaulted ceilings with stained wood, and a stone fireplace, and a spiral staircase with intricate railings.
The home also had horse stables and four detached garages, which are now boarded up and rotting.
Steve isn’t the first person to break into the property: many broke in after the 9/11 terror attacks, when Bin Laden was the world’s most wanted man.
Viewers were shocked at the abandoned property, with many hoping it gets restored despite it’s controversial former owner.
One said: “I’m sure nobody wants to touch it because of the obvious history, but it is definitely a beautiful property, truly do wonder what will happen in the future for it.”
Another user commented: “The house isn’t evil. Just the former residents. I hope it doesn’t get demolished and one day a well deserving family makes it theirs.”
Another thought the property should be demolished: “That mansion needs to be demolished and the land totally cleaned and back to nature. Get the stain of terrorists off it.”
The Bin Laden family sold the Florida house in 2006, but the formerly gorgeous mansion fell into abandonment.
The land has been passed from buyer to buyer, who can’t seem to find luck in repairing the house or selling the land to developers.
Many businesses and developers are understandably reluctant to buy the home formerly owned by the terrorist’s family.
Bin Laden was the leader of Islamic militant group Al-Qaeda and the man behind the September 11 attacks in New York City, Washington DC and Pennsylvania.
Bin Laden had five wives, the first he married at the age of 17, with whom he fathered between 20 and 26 children during his lifetime.
The terror mastermind is infamous for plotting terrorist attacks, including the 1998 bombings of the US Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
Bin Laden was on the run for years before being found hiding in Pakistan in 2011, where he was killed by US Seal Team Six.
