Hello.
<Edward had a good life. He lived with his mum and dad in a fabulous derelict mansion. From his attic bedroom he enjoyed a fifteen kilometre view.~>
These are from a chapter book for children. I don't understand the underlined part. Doesn't 'derelict' mean 'not used in bad condition'?
Please help!!
not used or cared for and in bad condition
