Abandoned- Hoarders? Or tenants evicted from this grand old 1920`s Bungalow

[@lladylobo1]

I am always saddened by hoarders. I often wonder what has been missing in their lives that they thought 'things' could replace. At one time this house must have been beautiful based on the finishings left inside. The leaded glass, the front fireplace, the ceiling tiles, and some of the original woodwork was great. Thanks for the show.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Yes hoarders usually grew up with not a lot lladylobo and hang on for dear life to things to avoid that feeling I guess. Lots of old features to look at here in this old place, glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching :-)

[@kgbeezr75]

My best friend of two decades is a hoarder, haven't seen the inside of his place in years, I only wait outside if I pick him up. I used to joke with him that I was going to come in anyway, and I tried to peek inside, but I don't do it anymore because I realize it's a sensitive area. There's so much grief and misery in the world, but it so often hides behind smiles and cheery dispositions, and people compensate and cope in all sorts of ways...I probably fall in there somewhere myself too, but I don't hoard. There's the face we show the world, and the one we keep just for ourselves, more people probably hoard than one would think, and there are degrees like anything. Point though, I think it's some OCD, but it's also filling in for what isn't there..there's a term used in psychology but it escapes me. As UrbexIndigo said too, it's people who didn't grow up with much. That fits my friend, and as an adult he made a good career and life, he has the income to burn, and he just spends to have, and spends to avoid. If that makes sense. Sorry I rattle on, but it's all fascinating to me how different people deal with life.

[@michelemcguire8995]

Well many times it's because they've lost a child or husband to death n they just can't part with any of their things and so then they go shopping n find things that reminds yhrmnif that person or persons,buy it and do the hoard begins to grow and grow..that's what's sad..they can't seem to put it together in their minds that things won't bring them back but they feel so emotional about it that they feel if they throw away their things they feel as though they would be throwing them away as well..

That house is really in great shape! The stained glass windows and fireplace are absolutely stunning! Love the colors in the windows and all the architectural details in this bungalow. I can only imagine what it looked like before it was cleared out. I've seen places around where I live that are currently occupied by hoarders. It's a strange disease, for sure, with no known cure. I hope this beautiful home finds a family, I would hate to see it torn down for ticky tacky new condos, but that seems to be the path our future homes are taking lately. Thanks so much for another great tour! Loved it!

Hi Debbie, the huge double rectangle gables at the front basically define these 20`s homes as bungalows here in Australia, also the thick pillars holding the veranda and gable up. he interiors of this one are late federation and arts and crafts which also blends in to Bungalows era. this one is basically a trasition from federation in to Bungalow.

[@MrGaryRoberton]

An Echo of a more gracious time, the lifestyle of the past that was re purposed. in the 1970's. A lot like bed-sit flats in the crowded areas of the U.K. into rental flats when the original structure was no longer viable as a single residence. Changes in attitudes, and the past is gone. Grateful for your efforts to record the perhaps, end of the road. Well done. Cheers

[@stevenmyers7676]

Wonderful house. I would love to see it back in its original condition. Odd to put up walls in a larger room to make a, basically unusable tiny room. Unless they were using the small rooms as nurseries. Hoarding often is the result of a loved ones death. Spouse, parent, child. There is a lot there that isn't junk. Vintage and antique furniture and accessories. A saw some wonderful bed frames. Really nice garden furniture. A great old birdcage. And what looked like a very nice rug rolled up In the garage. Antique tables. A lot of terrific things. Thank you for letting me tag along, I enjoyed myself.

They had TONS of junk, great stuff mixed with outright trash, newspapers pilled, you name it ...they had it.

We'll never know if he'd cried out for help but the brother left in a bathrobe on a chair couldn't help & he slowly died for lack of food/water.

Unless people used them as offices or they were originally old fashioned 'dressing rooms' where people kept their clothes & often had a spare bed too. Thankyou for sharing.

[@sarahstrong7174]

I dont know who cleared that stuff out but it looks like they tried to put a lot of the stuff that would be most damaged by rain in the garage.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Haha yeah the old reading rooms of the Victorian and federation style homes were the equal of a modern day study. the house has been altered so yes they may not have been a small room originally. Cheers for watching :-)

***nice explore....the only time I have ever seen stuff put outside...is when people didn't their rent....but in the US....by law it has to be put in a storage unit.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Anette yes it does seem to be a mass eviction here lol I guess it has put the owner off from doing anything with this place since. Cheers for watching :-)

[@chaosdemonwolf1]

The big question is, is this place going to fall victim of getting knocked down?

[@urbexindigo5164]

Great question and Im not sure on this one as there is no info at all about the address but if patterns are anything to go by, this prob will end up the same fate.....cheers for watching :-)

Hi Miriam, yes lovely old house, thanks for your support and for watching :-)

[@lareeseblaque8303]

Great find.

[@wendyhou3416]

I would say the stuff in the front of the house is the contents that have been removed from the house, maybe an eviction and they didn’t come back for them. The back yard with the building materials and older furniture could well be the owner of the house using the yard for storage of his stuff he has collected over the years.

[@urbexindigo5164]

The flip side to hoarding. If we didn't produce so much unwanted goods, it wouldn't be a problem.

[@shellwood3616]

There was a nice long ladder in the shed that could have reached up to the manhole in the house. I wonder if there was anything up there?

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Shell , yes I guess I could have got that ladder but we kind of did not want to spend excessive time in there and the manhole did not seem too safe lol. Cheers for watching :-)

[@nancysmith2295]

Here in the USA landlords can toss things out as part of an eviction. Storage is an issue. Sometimes if something needs to be done with the interior all the stuff goes out. If you don't care, It's just piles. Too bad the house was split. Wonder if the owner just gave up on the project. Another issue is how things get tied up in banks and courts, so it's not worth the effort. It seems to be structurally ok. I love the older homes there. Stained glass, high ceilings, fireplaces, etc.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Nancy, yes this place is definitely in a state of limbo, it seems the owner has not tendet to anything for a long time other than ditching all the stuff out years ago, may have given up or intending to sell. Cheers for watching :-)

Maybe all the junk outside used to be inside. They moved it outside to haul it off but never got around to it.

[@christinebritcher-viviyan5080]

How strange that the contents have been moved to the outside just to be left to rot there. The property looks quite sound and could no doubt be restored with the lovely details on the inside this would really be worth doing. As I tap out this comment 2 years have passed since the filming - Paul do you have an update?

[@maristresemann4552]

Surprised to see the inside so clean. What's going to happen to the house do you think? A freind wants to know if you have merch?

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Mari :-) Well depending on where or who the owner is I would say they may sell it and a developer will get it and you know whats happens then.....lol. No merch, I have not really thought about merch, could be a cool thing to do though? :-)

[@MrOnyxWolf]

Ah, so basically it was a duplex at some point in it's life. I lived in a couple duplexes myself in the past. Laurel, Delaware, USA particularly has quite alot in such small town. That includes alot of large houses. Seems the interior has been in good condition for quite awhile. I think if the outside was cleared up and fixed, I think it can still be livable. Just add a few touch-ups here and there and viola! You got yourself a move-in ready home. Which I hope does happen at some point.

[@chaosdemonwolf1]

Agreed. But make it one big house again like it used to be.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Spot on MyOnyxWolf, it has one little section that was an add on to complete the 3rd unit which was sealed off but the home was so large it easily accommodated that purpose. I do wish to see this home grand family living again, cheers for watching :-)

[@nessav7258]

I'm not convinced a hoarder lived there but either the material remains of the owner scattered about the place or maybe the tenants belongings dumped outside. The place internally did not appear to me to be from a hoarder as the floors are in good condition. I also find it interesting that the 'reading rooms' had internal wall vents.

[@urbexindigo5164]

Hi Nessa, yep after making the video and rewatching I also think that all 3 sections of the home had contents in them and it was all moved out to the porch areas and has sat there since. Vents were essential back in those times for regulating the temperature of the homes , cheers for watching Nessa :-)

[@nessav7258]

@@urbexindigo5164 how do they ventilate on internal walls? I know about the external walls.

they also work as ducted heating from the fireplaces in winter so the air can feed via the ceilings in to the rooms with no fire places :-)
