[@sashas8168]

Heart break on some many fronts. My heart goes our to Barbara, so terrible to lose your home in this manner. Such a beautiful old villa.

[@WendyBrownsea]

Wishing the owner all the best in her new home

[@neets4483]

My heart breaks for Barbara and her daughters and all the other home owners. She is so right how is she going to find another home that could come close to that beautiful old place. I hope she took what plants she could, her garden was magnificent.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Neets 😊 yes there is a longer interview with Barbara also. That was her grand daughter with her. Raised her daughter's there. 😒

[@josephinegassner6511]

it breaks my heart to see all these beautiful old homes destroyed. I was born in Henley Beach in 1950 and my relatives all had houses like these. I and shocked when I see the square, ugly boxes that have replaced them. My sympathies go out to all these homeowners.

[@JohnShinn6078]

I sure hope the government didn't send Barbara to one of those stacked pidgeon hole boxes they're bulding these days. Thanks for the tour Paul! Stayin Tuned! 👍🤠 🇺🇸

[@DebbieEvangelou]

Hi Paul I really felt for Barbara losing her forever home.She had a gorgeous garden and beautiful home hopefully she found another forever home.This tunnel has caused a lot of heartbreak for a lot of people.Till next week catch you then Paul cheers.

[@kenem1946]

Thanks, Paul. So sad ... my feelings are those of earlier comments. No need to repeat them.

[@almaberthelson6139]

What a lovely garden, i wonder if Barbara dug up any plants? So dang sad an unfair! Thanks Paul. Hugs

[@arletaspangler5937]

My heart weeps for all of these families!😢

[@slong8941]

[@neets4483]

[@meganpaull6140]

Oh my gosh what a beautiful home love it inside and out especially the garden 🪴 my heart is broken for the former owner I just cried 😢 very sad. Thank you for the tour. ❤😊🌟x

[@DebbieBuck-v1h]

Good morning Paul, wow thankyou for your entry into the vidio this week,. Yes l feel for Barbara and her girls, l hope she finds a nice home with a garden just like her old one.cheers deb 😊

[@jennypursche4488]

Thanks again,such a beautiful home bites the dust. Homes impact our lives. Losing your home could add years to you and affect your health. As a garden lover I watch the devastation of gardens. It would be good to have garden/plant salvage, too. Cheers to all, Jenny Adelaide South Australia 😊

[@jerroldmcley4347]

I miss the old farm houses but these homes you are getting to do are all awesome 😎👍

[@urbexindigo5164]

More farms one to come Jerrold 👍🙂

[@minimad6283]

Wow, this is a sad one with a direct connection to the ex owner. I sure hope she doest see the video with the vandalism and then the demolition. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, MM :)

[@Maria-k7v1z]

Such a beautiful garden. So very sad all these beautiful homes all gone 😢

[@debhunt6224]

So sad, feel bad for the family! 😢

[@yeahitsprivate4697]

I’m so heartbroken for all of these people! It’s really unfair what they are doing to them.

[@slong8941]

Sad Sad Sad....... money can't fix this kind of Sorrow.

[@pamelatripp8865]

It's a shame that people such as the owner of that property would be expected to raise her family and live her life out in that beautiful hone 😢😢😢

[@darlenerimes884]

I'm so sad for all of these people

[@donnamata614]

heartbreaking 😢

[@user-iamRobinV68]

Awwww sad. In the USA it’s called eminent domain.

[@rogertemple7193]

This was really sad when people had to leave their nice homes for the tunnel to be put through where all of these houses are and to move elsewhere in order to make way for the eventual tunnel but hope everything turns out good in the future I've been enjoying looking at these places and getting a chance to see before they are all demolished take care and have a great weekend and until next time thanks again.🧋👍🇦🇺

[@davidwhite3337]

So sad, as I have said b4, Paul. That all of these homeowners have to give up their homes for progress.

[@G3A3]

i hope barbara doesn't see this vid.

[@pamelavance8753]

Is it possible to move these older homes to a new location?

[@patriciasamalens9840]

Bonjour d'Occitanie (France) Je pense que ces taches de peintures ont été réalisées par une personne qui n'apprécie pas de devoir partir et souhaite empêcher la récupération de ces maisons (ce n'est pas forcément l'ancienne propriétaire). C'est dommage que cette maison disparaisse, sont intérieur était très jolie, surtout l'espace cuisine.

[@bchooper5603]

There isn't going to be any recovery of these houses. They are going be torn down and the material from them are only going to landfills.

[@mdelannoy3495]

👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤😺😺😺😺😺👋👋👋👋👋

[@Jack.333]

A $30,000. Dollar premium should be paid above the established fair market value for all at the mercy of progress.

[@kimfitzgeraldrockfam8973]

I truly hope all these people got a decent deal on there homes but of course the government wont pay what there truly worth

[@Spiritual_warrior834]

I would have loved to fix that house!!

[@AnnWieland]

I hope all the residents who were required to leave their beautiful intact family homes were grossly overpaid.

[@slong8941]

Absolutely

[@stephaniemcquillan1930]

This is such a sin to take people’s homes away from them. No amount of compensation can make up for it. These homes have stood for decades if not centuries. Really, really sad and maddening, especially after seeing soo many people lose their homes in Los Angeles. It’s been heartbreaking seeing them return to what were their beloved homes to try and salvage what they can. The world is being destroyed.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Cheers Stephanie. 😊👍

[@vanessaguinane4379]

Yip ~ government doesn’t give 2F’s about people ~ it’s always about $$ for government and $$ that sadly the home owners aren’t going to see!!😢😢

[@TheDancingunicorn]

How devastating for these people to be forced to give up their homes for a stupid roads development. You’ll never get these homes back again. History is being wiped out

[@loubowen6649]

All I will say is the only way I would move is for the city to move all my trees and plants to be transplanted to my new house outside of the city. But the IDIOTS with the paint should be prosiquited and spend a lot of time helping move my plants. But that would have been after I showed them the way people were punishing out behind the Barn.

[@JulieN01-01]

It is just horrible. Why couldn't they move the homes? It's a crime.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Brick and stone homes are far more different and difficult to move than weather board ones plus being in the suburbs makes it even harder and more expensive so it's not worth it unless absolutely important heritage building. Itt can be done but no one sees it as viable. In the country it's easy with weather board homes.

[@PeterFrangio-jp6nx]

Mate, I really appreciate you being the custodian of history, but it's depressing viewing of late. As you rightly stated, all those trees, plants and land that's sustained life all gone. Brutal. Humanities going in the wrong direction, and with each year we're descending quicker into oblivion.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Peter, yes the unfortunate thing for most of these homes I film in the suburbs is that they are destined for demolition 😒 Cheers for watching 👍😁

[@Leonie-h2e]

Why can't they move it like they do in America or disabled &rebuild like caption cooks cottage.was relocated from UK to Melbourne

[@JohnShinn6078]

8:30 Be careful what you say, maybe Barbara did it, maybe it was neighborhood kids. I wouldn't put it past myself either. "If I can't have my nice place, no one can."

[@bchooper5603]

The former owners wouldn't do that since it wouldn't make a difference. These houses are going to be torn down and the material from them is going to go to landfills.

[@lawrencekelli]

This is awful! losing your home for tunnel for car's .I don't drive and I know others need to for work and such but it sucks.

[@andreakalus6277]

Why are you not figthen back , are cars more than people . Really you need to look what kind of people your voting for . 🙄🤥
