Abandoned Australian bush house and privately owned. Be respectful of the owner

[@cjod33]

I work for the Australian bureau of statistics and over the years I've come across a hell of a lot of 'abandoned' dwellings in extremely remote places. It always amazes me just what humans can do.

[@jax993]

I’d love an abandoned house to!! I’ll fix it up & look after it, must’ve been amazing finding those places

[@michaelmurdoch5956]

I don't know why you say to ignore you rambling on. It's what makes this channel unique. I really enjoy listening to you and your thoughts. That place is beautiful, how you keep finding these places is such a talent. Thank you for sharing.🙂

[@dnorcal1]

Ditto

[@Noniinthebush]

This place deserves to be restored.

[@jaredmason1764]

Thank you for saving the lizard, me and my family always leave branches in sinks and tip buckets upside down so small animals can get out/dont get trapped

[@crazyduck1254]

in my 20’s i broke up with my girlfriend, i went to live at warrandyte in the yarra valley. Back in the 40’s and 50’s artists from europe built some similarly strange and unusual homes out of rock, stone and wood, I know of two built out of love. There was one home close to monstalvat that was never finished. It always made me sad. But everything seemed to make me sad in that valley.

[@Professor__S]

And now warrandyte has been bought by the eastern suburbanites for holiday houses.

[@sylvain5146]

This home would have been once vibrant and no doubt filled with love enthusiasm, and zest for life, but as all things, what goes up must come down, we are born into this world to live, love and respect life, only to get old, sick and die, this is a reminder of the nature of impermanence, what comes into existence will come to pass. Better get right with whoever or what ever the maker is, as death comes like a thief in the night, totally unexpected, to reveal the true nature of your mind, removing all doubt and delusionment. The key is to recognise your true self and detach from this worldly existence, fully excepting of the process and not hold onto anything, knowing you are returning to the macrocosm of the universal energy, and emptiness. So start practising meditation, only vehicle to get you there, and start shredding away the layers, respect one another as we are all going to go through the same process. Love and have compassion in your heart, knowing the journey ahead we all face, or we will be subject to our karma and come what may, instead of the the driver of your own destiny.

[@SamStone1964]

​@@sylvain5146Perhaps the key is not to detach from this worldly existence. Perhaps the key is to connect more deeply and immerse ourselves in the awe, joy, delight, loss, sorrow of this worldly existence.

A lot of blood sweat and tears went into that amazing gem. What a crying shame. So glad you could show us.

[@marilyndenler1370]

Such an unusual place. A lot of work that took skill in placing all the rocks just so. The ceiling in the first room you entered and the big arched windows were gorgeous ! Thanks much for sharing this intriguing place .

[@BebeBonet]

Put something in the sink that they can climb so they never get stuck again.

[@kenem1946]

G'day Michael ... very pleased to know there's another video from you that I can watch after I unload a trailer of firewood. 😅I hope your health is stable and preferably on the improve.

[@karen4you]

Beautiful and bittersweet since time marched on and the dream ended. It's tragic that vandalism is still a thing. Thank you for showing us this gem.

[@createandliveyourbestlife]

THANK YOU MICHAEL for sharing, I can imagine it restored and used to provide housing for visitors to the National Park for Education trips to learn about our beautiful National Parks. Or as a Training Project for new Parks and Wildlife Staff, to get first hand training on the spot. Nothing is impossible just takes visitation and a desire to educate people on how to look after our National Parks by getting immersed in how nature works. JUST A THOUGHT 👏🏻🙏🏻🙋🏻‍♀️🇦🇺

[@shaygordon-brown646]

Fascinating explore. Seems very 'folly' like. Double thumbs up.

[@Moonwing72]

What a fascinating place this is! Such a shame it’s in this state now. Only built in the 80’s , it’s sad how quickly things deteriorate when left abandoned. I think that piece of equipment in the shed at the end was for spreading fertiliser? Great explore, thank you 💜

[@marybethsmith6458]

That is a very awesome place and unusual with all of the Asian architecture. I'm sure you enjoyed this explore as much as I did.

[@wendydawson2053]

A most beautifully incongruous find, sitting quietly out in the bush. Thanks so much for this explore!

[@jax993]

Love the note that was left behind, the stone work is awesome what a spot with that creek! Felt a bit eerie at 1st but I got used to it & your right about maidenhair 😂

[@fireflymedium]

Kind of amazing seeing this place again. The last time was probably around 1999. Always wondered what the inside look like.

[@dnorcal1]

What a beautiful beautiful find...I like when you called the owner...an "Eccentric Builder" i would like to use the expression to describe my ex husband ..innovator ..he could envision things that noone else saw!! Stunning and eclectic..great explore thank you

[@Murfs_Niche]

I was just telling my daughter about you biilding your own casket today after she took me for a Mothers Day/Birthday breakfast. Tickled seeing your video notification & do a looky-see with you of this beautiful structure. Great to hear your voice sounding strong & well. Take care! ❤

[@contemporaryenglishversion4621]

what a beautiful house, i can't get over the gorgeous roof and window

[@mypeeps333]

So happy to hear from you again ! 😘

[@susanplante]

Awesome. Thanks for taking us along.

[@servicedogkyzanna1761]

Thank you, Michael, for the effort to do this one- it is gorgeous!!!! I would STILL live there. Can you imagine when it was in it's prime? I am also shocked that there is absolutely no vandalism, that no statues are smashed, the only decay appears to be natural, and that even animals are not even in there, for the most part, maybe because it is stone. I saw that he used cement on some parts, and it looked like he had a retaining wall on part of the hill outside. I would love to have seen the grounds when the entire property was operational. Do you happen to know ho much property he had? The trees look juvenile, for the most part, but the fires may have taken out some, and he may have taken out a lot to clear for animals and planting. He had chickens, at the very least, and probably goats- most people who live rural and homestead at all have chickens and goats. The statue is an Indian God of Worship, I can't remember which one, but symbolizes peace and you leave offerings and talk to the statue/God and ask for what you need. I don't know how cold it gets where that home is, but it would certainly stay cool in the Summer. The plumbing was also up to date! What a cool find, and so peaceful. I would give anything to live out of the city. Thank you again- I always love seeing notifications come up from you, don't care why, but explores like this are wonderful!-SDK

[@spunkfish11]

Love this one. Such great skill in that stonework. A dedication to love.

[@JHazzardousW]

I would have loved to have seen this beautiful house in it's prime.

[@Handleyman]

What a shame that it’s been left to deteriorate like that. Surely someone knows who owned it and what happened to them. I’d love to renovate it!

[@pigoff123]

So glad to see you. I just had to smile when I saw your video. Thank you for sharing

[@coletteclarke2905]

Wow that place was magical. Had a very Indian feel to it with the ganesh statue on top. Bet it was a bit of heaven living there ❤

[@missdemeanor40]

Stunning building, Thank you for sharing your explore Mr Kuebler, I have no words to describe my emotional response to this little beauty. hope you are doing well n keeping those double pluggers busy.

[@hedgewitch59]

I'm amazed that it wasn't ruined even more by bushfires. This old place makes my renovator's heart leap. As you were walking through, I was seeing it complete. I want it! 😍

[@gonewrong_exe]

I love exploring abandoned places in Australia! Goulburn has some treats :) Kenmore Asylum is a really interesting one to look into if you love reading up about history! It’s also very haunted and I’ve had a couple of experiences first hand from being there. This is such a treasure, the fact it has minimal damage is amazing! Thank you for sharing with us :)

[@leighsavage3267]

I use to live in Goulburn Kenmore was literally behind my house people use to park out the front of mine to go in then there was a stolen car driven through an then got burnt down I always wanted to go in there but now apparently it’s got cameras everywhere I went to one in Melbourne that was apparently haunted an nothing ever happened to me or otheres there would be cool to go on adventures with ours who are interested

[@ladytammy6886]

Wow. What a stunning little place The stone work is amazing!

[@OmnivorousReader]

Love that you rescued the lizard. Fascinating place to explore.

[@user-randi1987]

What an interesting and unique place. Thanks for sharing

[@jo-annematthews9873]

My partner and I discovered this when we visited the area as well. He scaled the wall for a peak, I was more gutless, and watched from the ground, it was very run down though when we saw it. We heard they accessed it down the road a bit across the river.

[@briansmythe3000]

Wow awsome Thanks for filiming even had a Balcony Amazing

We had one of these buildings in suburban Buff Point, NSW, until just recently. A love shack that developed the old concrete rot.

[@resolutehamster]

Good to hear from you again.

[@ryanclarke2161]

guessing you crossed the river but myself and a mate came across this during a rave back in 2007 which led to a flood fiasco. its an amasing spot and mind blowing structure.

[@melldavs]

Where is it

[@ryanclarke2161]

well its not in a national park, its still private land.@@melldavs

[@leannemayor5755]

Wow fantastic building

[@Blackheathenly]

Some people will gift their properties to National Parks in their wills, to stop it from being cleared/mined etc. It could well have been the case. It may have originally been his, but then merged into the NP at his bequest.

[@norm5785]

Interesting location, thank you for sharing. Everyone stay safe, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia

[@hswan]

Knowing a place is private property would be the " keep out " sign

[@Jennifer-ep1sr]

So glad you closed the doors.

[@jodiezammit333]

It has a gaol feel to it, as if someone might've been locked inside. Creepy.

[@davidmarsalis1522]

What a cool house.

[@56music64]

Not sure, but I think I may have seen this house, some years back on Better Homes and Gardens when the guy who built it lived there??

[@KIP_KnowledgeIsPower]

You mentioned the longer the videos are on your phone, the poorer the quality? Have you tried stopping & starting fresh recordings? So your phone sees it as a new video but to us it just picks up where you left off? SanDisk makes great phone USB sticks now (for all types of ports). I’ve got one for my iPhone, a Type C dual one for my iPad & a Micro USB one for my eReaders for backup. I think they all come with a 2nd standard USB on the other end too so you can plug into the phone then into a PC later without an adapter if you want. With the iPhone one, I know from experience you can’t record directly on them but you can plug it in (no app needed) & quickly move your videos onto it, delete them off you phone then boom, got your phones storage back again to keep filming 😁😁 There’s also adapters pretty cheap now too that plug into any type of phone & can let you connect a micro SD card to it too. I’m sure you prob already know about those things but wanted to let you know I’ve personally bought & used each kind (only SanDisk, can’t verify other brands) & they work great 😁😁 Thank you for this video!! Absolutely amazing!!!!! 😍😍

[@futuretech2.0]

Hey Michael the link is not working. Would love to know more about this place.

[@christaylor4263]

Another fantastic video. That must have been a masterpiece in its day . Heart breaking it’s been left to decay and lucky the idiots we share this world with haven’t either set fire to it or set it on fire .

[@lynnemiles8065]

So beautiful - how sad it can't be bought and restored - it would be an idyllic living space

[@jamiesullivan8900]

Cootamundra pub?.. think your referring to the Ettamogah pub

The pub your thinking of is it the Ettamonga ?. Great explore 🤗💕💕💕

What a cool place 😊

[@Adam-ik4wf]

I agree I would love to have some land next to a rocky creek and build a similar place

[@shellebelle53]

@Adam-ik4wf absolutely agree 100%

[@boop7313]

Wish you could tell us more about these amazing places but I understnd why you wouldn't. This place makes me think of the hawksberry area. I bet they slept upstairs under that amazing view! I know I would.😍 Kitchen on the other hand would send me mental lol

Awesome place kind of confusing but still awesome place thanks for sharing it with use all

[@nicolarollinson4381]

Love the way that you chunter to yourself...or are you with someone else? 😊 Fabulous little house. Seems a shame for it not to be loved in

[@lusimyer]

Its a lovely place. I wouldn't mind living there. Its a shame its going to ruin. It seems like there may be some damp/mould which isnt a good thing. It also leads to my next question..when it rains how would you stop the courtyard etc from flooding? Also with fires, wouldnt that house be a trap??

[@michaelb5330]

Stunning So sad it’s not restored

[@buddhastaxi666]

That house has some old, Victorian/Federation architectural features in it....archway doors, narrow passages , bull nose tin, bush poles. The two storey with a extended unsupported verandah Was it a renovation or new build by the last occupant? Ganesh the Elephant God is the statue.
