1930`s home way out in the countryside abandoned 40 years ago

[@ComehitherwithHeather]

South Australia, winter after a heavy rainfall!!! YESS S.A. scrub is easy to tell, At first i wasn't sure because it looked too green ha ha!! Then I saw the house and I knew for sure.Fabulous explore. Second to comment!! have a great sunday!!

[@lavenderfields929]

You are cataloguing our early British history. All this craftsmanship that went into our early architecture. The amazing old stoves that are still intact after the house has crumbled around it. The beautiful stained glass and metal beaten ceilings and exquisite cornices and ceiling roses that still stand majestically when other parts of the home have fallen. That's what you are recording. Early settlers who brought strength and beauty to this land of Australia.

[@marybethsmith6458]

Nothing better than rain on a tin roof for sleeping like a baby. So peaceful.

[@slong8941]

Absolutely true

[@ron8802]

Dont you mean...Corigated Iron.....lol

[@marybethsmith6458]

No I don't. We have always called it a tin roof just like saying tin foil. Years ago it was made of tin and this old woman still calls it that.@@ron8802

[@janacollins-maguire4942]

Puts me right to sleep!

[@joseebergeron]

That is a beautiful homestead. Would love to be able to go back in time and see it in it’s heyday… Both of them :-)

[@TimSeraphiel]

I had to laugh when I spied that Chef stove in the second building... I'm still using my old Chef Executive 4 stove which looks very similar to that one.

[@lavenderfields929]

I didn't live in the country growing up. But I did grow up spending most of my time in the country and the bush in Victoria. Camping. Fishing. Rabbiting and horseriding. And I have been known to check out the odd old dwelling or two. Watching your videos and listening to your narration is a real pleasure. Love your work. Your doing what we always think about doing. Exploring. Thank you😊😊

[@chriscritchell5115]

In the kitchen of the first house the metal pieces on the floor were parts of a milk separator.

[@robertmurray8763]

A MILK SEPARATOR. For people that don't know. Milk would be put into a stainless steel vessel. The top of the machine. Whole Milk would go down through the middle that had a tap. To a chamber with a mechanism moving at high revaluations.( early models hand power and later electric). Cream rises to the top through the top spout and skimmed milk the lower spout.

[@bronwyn6415]

Even though I do like the old country farm houses, I would like to see a few city abandoned homes thrown into the mix as I enjoy them as well, especially the art deco homes. Enjoy watching your explores, they are never boring.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Bronwyn 😊 yes I will start upload some suburban ones again, got heaps still. Thanks heaps for your support 😊👍

[@Vistasabia]

That stove in the first house was a boss! Fretwork in the hall of the second house was cool. Interesting that it still looked good after so many years, which is a tribute to the workmanship. And holy honeycomb…that thing was a monster 😲.

[@MistyLaneLoveConquersALL]

I'm loving your camera! Those honeycombs are awesome. I look forward to your videos every week.🏚😃

[@rogertemple7193]

Another great discovery of an old abandoned house way out in the country looks like an old farm of course looks like a nice rainy day there and a great time for exploring these old places, take care and Thank You for another really awesome video of history.🤠👍

[@JohnShinn1960]

You can see the back door from the front door, that makes it a shotgun house! The stove with the digital clock appears to be very late 70s into the 80s. Thanks for the tour Paul, stayin tuned! 🤠👍 🇺🇸 PS, what is a mozzie? A mosquito? Anyone?

[@vickimarsh2750]

Yes, a mosquito .... Australian slang 😁

[@robertmurray8763]

Another great exploration of an abandoned South Australian farmhouses, Paul. I'm quessing, power board1990s, and the old Havelock tobacco tin? The door handles are the same as my house. The doors are similar to the dark wood door. House built 1940.😮

[@slong8941]

30-40 years lived in gave a family or families some good memories. Peaceful place helps keep the soul young. Always a pleasure brother.

[@juanitaduval9856]

I love how I hear so many birds in your country. Love that. US

[@servicedogkyzanna1761]

That is a very utilitarian home, not a very decorative or fancy house at all- the bees seem to have done more with it, lol. Thank you for this entire farm series, my favorite!!!!-SDK

Hello beautiful vidéo a bit dangerous like exploration 🤔😊😊😺😺👋👋👋

[@TheLightbright01]

Wow huge bee hive.

[@tinasteer2507]

3:01. Are we there yet???? Maybe a Pastilles tin. They contained jelly like lollies with a type of sugar coating? Lovely big kitchen. I bet there was some fun occasions held there around a big table. The blue underlay under the carpet says 75/80 it was still occupied. Thank you for that.🎉

[@originalrecko]

Beautiful hardwood floors in that first room

[@AussieUrbanExploring]

ANOTHER GREAT EXPLORE PAUL THANKS FOR SHARING

[@michellecobb2158]

Yet again another excellent video

[@pijnto]

Power board is 80's through to present day However the lack of an RCD would probably mean early 80's

[@T.J-and-Soul]

Yes I agree, that's when I did my apprenticeship as a sparky.

[@pagonabarbata1364]

Yet another beautiful old homestead left to rot in time. Sad yet that's reality.

[@wernersadventures8330]

Hey Paul awesome first shearers quarters that was the highlight for me and those darn mozzies are even worse over here and they big as well. The second one I agree 30s and that power board I would say early 80s even. This is another awesome explore mate cheers again.

[@xx-rr3ug]

Thanks for the tour, all your vids are quite interesting and even more so since they are in AU. Someone was right about you documenting our history. Keep up the good work. I had no idea we had this many abandoned places. Cheers from WA 👍

[@michelemcguire8995]

Wonderful thanks for sharing 😅

[@kimfitzgeraldrockfam8973]

big old house very wide hallway would of been a beautiful home with a big verandah around it

[@CaliAnimalLover]

I love that wide hallway! Makes the house feel bigger and more grand. Thank goodness there wasn’t any bees in the hive. You mentioned seeing kangaroos. That sounds amazing! Are they dangerous? I’ve seen some videos where they look like muscle-y men. Do people suffer injuries from wild kangaroos? And how often do you see them? I’m sorry, I live in California in the US, and I really don’t know a lot about them. I have to say that I truly love your videos! So interesting poking around in these old homes. It’s cool to think about the people that lived there and what their lives were like. I can’t believe you don’t have more subscribers. Your content is so interesting and you post so regularly. Well I for one, love your channel! Thanks for posting Paul! 🦘🦘 🦘

[@Bluerose888]

At 2:14 when you walk through areas like this, do you ever hear any kookaburras? Paul, your zoom is amazing. Nice big kitchen. Wow that was a huge beehive!

[@ivyseal5161]

[@meganpaull6140]

🌟Hi Paul, just love the country homes my absolute favourite places. The first thing I noticed was the grill work as soon as you opened the door also the grand hallway love it and the art deco doors. Just love the sound of the rain 🌧️ on the tin roof. I’m sure if the walls could talk there would be a great story to tell. Thank you so much 😊 ❤🌟:-) x

[@customscreenprinting]

Urbex Indigo thanks my friend for sharing this with me this old farm house it looked like it was not lived in for a long time i wonder how they lived in this place back in the day and where did the family go did they die off or did they just get up and leave and came back the house was empty for a while and thanks my friend for sharing this with me . i am from the U.S.A and i always show you support to your channel and i can't wait for your next video and God Bless.

[@TheLightbright01]

Great looking old house. Seems in pretty good condition.

[@marilyndenler1370]

Wow! The size of the beehive! The last house seemed to be of a good size. Thank you Paul. Have a good week👍🏻😊💖

[@minimad8432]

How's this place on a massive property, it seems. But no one at home.. It appears that nature and decay have claimed this one. It's great to see you documenting these old country homes before they are lost forever. Much thanks. That MM Bloke. :)

[@orionwarren4244]

It's crazy seeing all those volunteer trees all bent over or trying to take over what was probably an open grass field around the home back when!

[@amandawilliamson4486]

The grass is so green and soft looking. Makes you want to lay down. I love seeing these places, but they make me sad. Were these owned or worker's homes?

[@pattigolden1]

Cool old houses, the newer was much larger than expected! Loved the etched glass door of the stag. That hive was HUGE!!!

[@janacollins-maguire4942]

Looks so nice out there when its all green. The second home wasnt in that bad of shape if not for the roof caving in. Beautiful out there. I was thinking to ask you if you ever see kangaroos out in the countryside and about then you said you saw some. Lol Cheers Paul ☮️💜

[@anitapresnell6403]

What a fascinating old home! Renovators dream! Would love to get something like that and strip it bare before adding new flooring, doors, piping etc. Would make a beautiful home when finished

[@maryrincon2014]

Love your videos.

[@AnnasBurningCuriosity]

[@lavenderfields929]

Good old box thorn bushes and barbed wire.

[@crystalcat1317]

Wow, what a great place and explore. Loved seeing the huge beehive. They should be very safe there.

[@sandrakoch8682]

Hello Paul, it's been awhile since I commented on any places that you been to lately. The first home I love the bigger oven works great for a big family. That honeycomb was HUGE glad that the bees were not buzzing around in full force, otherwise you would be running for the hills. The main home had good size rooms, like the openness of the hallway. I was hoping to see more details, like some stained glass at the front door area. The home was more simple. Just a working farmers home a place to eat and lay down at the end of the day. Thanks again for another adventure. See you next weekend. Take care 🙂

[@orionwarren4244]

Looking back, a person can imagine all who came before in both of these places, the most amazing; the fact that the latter had occupants into the 80s!

[@ghekogrrl]

21:04 what is the vent to the right of the old light switch? I didn’t see any central heat or air lol

[@78541954]

This was an interesting explore. I always wonder why these places get abandoned…

[@urbexindigo5164]

Cheers Mindy 👍😊

[@kathysmith4261]

It's a lot like California there nice and green in the winter and hot and brown in summer

[@melindacummings1069]

With those estimates, fills like they lived in that small house . Working hard for a little something more than what they had. More than likely not being able to enjoy it for near enough time. Sorry for not being present much lately. Texas has been true hell lately.

[@kenem1946]

G'day Paul ... another good one, but then again, they're all good. Considering this seemed to be a hidden find, how did you get one to this one? With all the trekking you do you'll be fit enough to be playing centre half forward next season! 😄

[@helenholmes3018]

The first place you went in I seen a piece off a separater milk one

[@LestWeForget-LestWeForget]

The second home seemed quite sound, looking at the walls, as there were no large cracks. The rooves of these places seem to be the place that starts all of the decay, with water seeping onto the floors. I've often wondered about the use of corrugated metal for roofing, as it seems that the house would get very hot with the sun heating it. Was it a cost thing? I feel sure that a house with a more substantial roof would last a lot longer, although the second house seemed to be ok in parts (from about 5 minutes towards the end, was trying to see what the roof was made of). I'm sure there were a few gasps when you went back and showed us the size of that bee hive!

[@JohnShinn1960]

3:50 Oh, do be careful!! 😲 (First to comment 😉)

[@Sixth69]

I've seen this house somewhere I swear ive seen it on a video from ages ago of a kid riding a bike outside of it

[@patrickb5783]

Those doors look really solid, what kind of wood they be made of? That ceiling fan looks 80's to me.

[@21stcenturyozman20]

If you mean the dark, Art Deco style doors in the main house, the frames were solid (unknown type, always disguised by the dark stain/varnish) and the infill usually plywood.

[@sharonvitori4101]

Would have been a nice home

[@My.Australian.cattle.dog.]

Genuine question. As an owner of a rural property with abandoned buildings on it, I'm interested to know if you gain permission to enter these properties prior to entry.

[@patriciasamalens9840]

Bonjour d’Occitanie (France) Merci pour la belle promenade, je n’ai vu aucun réservoir (les cylindres en taule ondulé) si ma supposition est la bonne. J ‘aurais aimé voir comment ils étaient conçus. Chez moi ils pouvaient ressembler à des puits. Mais nous avons plus de puits que de réservoirs. Sonc ne pas apercevoir une seule de ces constructions, je me suis demandée s’il y avait aussi des puits dans votre sceteur de l’Australie

[@JudithGolding]

As you approached that eerie enchanted forest I was sure you would have to slay a dragon before breaking through to the homestead only to be greeted by a foreboding stone façade. Very few traces of elegance suggested by the trimmed doors and latticed, broad hallway seem to have been allowed to stand. Would the ceilings have always been so unadorned? The whole place seems to have built layers upon itself to keep the world out.

[@cnull2422]

Just wanted to ask a question. I have seen other Urban Explorers do this too, not just you. Why do you use your knuckles to push open doors?

[@blueenglishstaffybreeder6956]

I’m always curious what these properties are worth and whether or not somebody still owns them, I once had a mate who scored a property through adverse possession I think it’s called, nobody had owned it since the late 1800’s and they had no children so he got it for next to nothing

[@brujonpatrick4779]

Who or whom did he pay? I am also curious who or where the possible owners could be.
