Abandoned- 3 old cottages and a 50`s home all now gone

[@almaberthelson6139]

The second home had a lovely chandelier.... I want it! I love antiques an vintage things. Thanks ❤️ love your videos Paul. Watching from St.Louis,Missouri. 🇺🇸

[@marilyndenler1370]

Loved the second home’s beautiful chandelier and I hope they rescued it before they destroyed the home. The tin ceilings were neat too. Small but built to last cosy homes. If only those thick walls could talk! Thanks Paul from Minnesota 👍🏻

Thank you, Paul for another great video. Wednesdays and Saturdays would not be the same without you. Can't wait for your next adventure. Be safe. Cheers 😊

Glad you enjoyed them Cynthia, cheers for the support :-)

The second one looked like it had a home made kitchen, nice explore again.

[@patriciarussell7487]

So simple on the outside .Remember when scrolled iron was a thing? I love transom windows! Nice to get a peek at things before they go away.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

Love the little cottages. I think the second one might have been my favorite on the inside - fix the rest to match and take down the Art Deco touches and it would be perfect. I love the thick walls and the lovely curve of that trim on what was likely the original front door. Thank you for showing us the side of the house. Aside from the hideous spider *shudder*, I enjoyed seeing the roof line where it was clearly visible where the old section had ended. I was very surprised, too, by the size of the “new” house! It was TINY! Small living room, kitchen and bathroom, plus three itsy-bitsy bedrooms! I think if someone as tall as yourself tripped going into one of those rooms, he’d smack his head on the opposite wall! Those bedrooms weren’t even big enough to fall down in! 😂 And the last cottage was gorgeous on the outside! That blue and white combination really tugged at my heartstrings! Thanks, as always, Paul, for bringing these to us!

Good morning Paul,what a shame to demolish such pease of history,those cottages were so tiny but well built, could see but that arch of that door,I love what you show us as am still learning about the Australian heritage and I love all these beautiful videos and it wasn't for you they forgotten forever,as usual enjoyed every minute of this video,have a great week Paul.a big 🤗 from a Frenchy in Australia 🇫🇷🇦🇺👍👍👍👍

What cute cottages, were small but was all the workers needed back then. We had a small 3 bedroom built in the 40s (which was a great little cosy home we loved.) It was one of many worker's homes all the same, which lined our street. Post war built, some say for returned soldiers familys or housing trust homes. Some cottages that were built by the old railways for the workers are still there in a few towns i know.

[@orionwarren4244]

That sculptured shag carpeting on the first cottage. Total 70s! The dunny is far enough so nobody had to smell your business yet close enough to permit comfort. Somewhat! Nice that the second two saw repurpose after the families they housed had gone on. But, as they say, all good things come to an end, eh Paul? The last home has that old wide plank pine floor that they'll no doubt salvage. That old growth pine just isn't available anymore! Thanks for the explore, mate!

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi OR :-) Yeah too many good things are coming to an end here in Adelaide regarding old homes. Cheers for watching :-)

[@onelastgoodhome]

Appreciate the tour, Paul! Don't forget the subtitle, please - I know you have so much on your plate, but they are super helpful. Love all that you do to document Adelaide's History

this was awesome!! The carpet in the bedroom of the first house is the exact same carpet that was in our shack on the river!!!! Knowing my dad it was probably salvaged carpet lol.... another wonderful and interesting video!!!

Me too Brenda :-)

I wonder if they ever used that nice new kitchen it was very clean, well the entire house was pretty clean.

[@kenem1946]

G'day Paul ... I do have to respond to a comment you made about the outdoor dunny in house one. It might be close to the side door of the house, but at my age, toooo far for one or two visits during the night, as often required! 😂 Cheers, Ken

[@urbexindigo5164]

Haha Ken :-) Very valid points mate and no one would prefer the outdoor dunny these days I sure haha , cheers for watching :-)

I also like the tiny cottage.the floors are nice,it may be little but a lot to salvage.👍❤️🇺🇸

Nice old cottages, seemed to have quite a lot of character although being left to decay you can see why people will just knock them over, great to see fragments of the past. Thanks for sharing Cheers MM :)

[@julzcares]

What an interesting explore of some unique old houses, 🏠that sadly have now be demolished. So much history that depicts variations of the older cottages over the decades. The second property appears to have been an old cottage that had an art deco facade added later on from the original build. Also, the less expensive cottages in the older suburbs such as Port Adelaide were constructed of timber frame with corrugated iron cladding. Thank you for another great explore of Adelaide history. 😊

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Julz! :-) The second one I agree started life as a very old two room cottage, very modest. The first and second ones indeed were down near Port Adelaide :-) Cheers for watching :-)

[@meganpaull6140]

🌟Hi Paul! The first home was very cute and had lots of character could really do a lot with it you had a sore finger hope it wasn’t hurting to much! The second house was really nice lots of Art Deco features sure is a step back in time :-) The third house was nice too really liked the brick facade. The last cottage absolutely love it especially the wrought iron tin cladding really adds character such a shame they are all gone now. Thank you soo much again. :-) 😊❤️

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Megan, thanks for watching. Yeah I cant remember how I hurt my thumb now as that one was a while ago. All cool old cottages though. :-)

[@servicedogkyzanna1761]

Interesting, the differences in neighborhoods that you go through. Those are all some rough places, although the 3rd one was the best. Does it not get really hot in tin homes?

[@debhunt6224]

Hi, love your videos. Why is corrugated metal used so much in buildings?

[@vickimarsh2750]

First property is a bit of a mystery. So far back on the block and only 3 rooms? I have to wonder what the original property might have been used for? It breaks my heart to see recently renovated homes demolished. Someone went to so much trouble to upgrade the last home, only to face off against the 'yellow devil'. My Mum bought a beautiful cottage in Ethelton in the early '80's. All sandstone, small but stunning. I think it's still there. She passed away last November at 100 and 3 days old and loved that house so much. She sold it, to be move to Qld to be close to us and her grandkids. So much heritage lost 😒

[@urbexindigo5164]

Wow, what a great innings she had Vicki :-) The last cottage was in Ethelton at 8 James Street. Some very very old little cottages there, all original still too! :-) Thanks for watching again Vicki :-)

@@Lucinda_Jackson There was only a brief glimpse of next door at the front of the featured home and I did think wow, that's similar to Mum's, but not enough to make an identification, till Paul's message about the location.

[@brendacolter368]

The first one looked tiny from the front. I love the old doors and the locks. Maybe Australia should legalize that stuff they destroy homes to make a grow house. It’s a shame to see old homes destroyed because of that. Just a thought. I love you refer to the toilet as a dunny. The second home since it was a business they didn’t do many changes to make it a home, just all business. The third one I do love that sand stone. I agree it seemed bigger from the outside.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Brenda :-) Thanks for watching, I agree Australia should legalize it.

[@Bluerose888]

Paul, PLEASE bring back the closed captions. The first house you showed, when you opened the front door, it looked like you hurt your thumb. Hope it's better now. All these homes the layout was not to my liking That one light hanging from the ceiling, was beautiful at 17:58.
