We found ABANDONED Cottages - Left to Decay!

[@Eyeballkidd]

It's almost criminal to see properties like that just left to rot away. Once they're gone, they're gone and we'll never see homes built like that again.

[@VacantHaven]

Such a mess, I guess they didn't have anyone to pass it down to and it got stuck in the hands of whoever for a long time! Hopefully it can be saved

[@1MartinWaite]

@VacantHaven most end up owned by the Crown ( government) who'll do nothing with it for fear of some long lost relative turning up and claiming the property. Then the property falls into disrepair and is flattened for safety reasons.

[@justineheinrichs2798]

Must have been a beautiful place years ago. To bad the mold got so bad. Don’t know how you’d get rid of that. Absolutely loved the conservatory. Thanks for the explore ♥️🇨🇦

[@VacantHaven]

You basically go in with Hazmat suits and strip everything! I hope they can be restored, cheers for watching 👍

[@Trish1]

What a great find - two lovely cottages 💕 Love the red walls and checked floor in no:2 and those old board games in the attic wow! Shame they’ve been left to deteriorate 😢 Curious about the pantry area, fire extinguishers and the outbuildings - they must have had some sort of groups visiting … if only the houses could speak!! Another great video Alex, Ed and Ned 👍👍👍

[@VacantHaven]

Cheers Trish! Yeah very nice little cottage at one point in time. I think the guy was very fire conscious or it could have been a B+B maybe?

[@kathpayne4364]

Two beautiful old cottages just left... Very modern conservatories and yet the rest very dated except for some interesting colour schemes and various shades of mold. 😅 Thanks Alex, Ned and Ed..

[@Pure-Luck447]

A really nice old vintage place with lots of interesting old bits 😍

[@VacantHaven]

Glad you liked 👍

[@maverickflint1991]

Nice conservatory with a stove to keep warm when you want to go out there when it is cold and sit around and drink some coffee and chit chat.😊

[@patkilmurray4702]

I reckon these were workers cottages for, the estate perhaps which would explain the lack on any updating and the garish colours usually found in old rented houses. The outside was so much prettier than the inside but knocked together and renovated it could be a really good house. Thanks for another interesting explore.

[@sam-bp4uh]

That's what I'm thinking workers cottages for an estate as theres a veg garden and polytunnels that are looked after

[@mariecook2827]

Great viewing as usual guys, 2 cottages but so different in their own unique styles... The grounds looked amazing,, some hidden gems for sure 😊

[@VacantHaven]

They really throw me back in time when I visit these old Farm type house. So much character to this one. Cheers for watching

[@mariecook2827]

@VacantHaven the games in the attic took me back,, operation was a fave 👌

[@Pure-Luck447]

I get the feeling Edd is a retired locksmith 😅 he gets you in everywhere

[@VacantHaven]

No lock picking ever required in our explores, but yeah weirdly I get that feeling too lol

[@Pure-Luck447]

@@VacantHaven lol since he's always looking for Safes.

[@lissanne9769]

This was once in a lifetime kinda home. Now this once beautiful place is being taken back by nature. The architecture is fabulous and unusual with the high ceilings. It's always so sad to see a wonderful place like this just falling apart. Some of the things left behind were odd to be keeping in the first place. Like those coffee cup lids, toys, and so many mirrors, weird. Makes you think that a hoarder may have lived there. Thank you guys for the beautiful tour.

[@maz121able]

A perfect end of my birthday to watch you guys explore. P.s don't forget the tunnels lol xx

[@VacantHaven]

Will be looking in to it soon Maz! And glad you had a great birthday. Cheers as always for the awesome support, very kind 👍👍👍👍

Great explore guys. I love people's lofts, always find stuff that triggers nice childhood memories 🤗 The stair carpet in cottage one was my childhood living room carpet and I instantly felt 5 years old again, playing Buzz Off and Operation sitting on that awful garish carpet 😄 I love when that happens in an explore, makes me feel all warm and cosy ! Cheers, See you next week guys 😘

[@VacantHaven]

Thank you Carol glad you enjoyed the explore, same time next week..see you there 👍👍

[@1MartinWaite]

Was a garden service place probably had a market garden or possibly a smallholding at some point hence the big water vat. That tool you mentioned the big spikes on that was an Allen Sythe (spelling is wrong) was used as a mechanical sythe for cutting tall grass waste ground etc.then the next machine with the bid wheels that had Oxford something on them was a large rotavator they were taken over by a company called Howard who called it a Howard Gem. The board games are from the 70s my younger brothers had all them games oh the memories !

[@stuartfletcher2378]

Other than the mold problem the place was in not bad condition . The yobs had not been around to smash the place up and the graffiti paint by numbers cans ran out . Thank you for a great video , I really enjoyed being there ( in spirit only ) , Till next time , Stuart in Canada ..

[@mrperfectedkelly]

Hi guys, looking forward to this 😊

Enjoy 👍

I bet they looked beautiful in there hey day just sad see them rot away ,there so many homeless that could do with these great vlog as always

[@sarahtaylor2492]

Looks so pretty from the outside, shame it can’t be renovated with some work they would make beautiful homes, not keen on the colour scheme, each to their own though lol. Wonderful explore as always guys x❤

[@tishalaubach4626]

What a odd setup. That place looked bigger on the outside. Then it was on the inside. Nice find. Thank you for the adventure. Stay safe.

[@daphnerosemoon9843]

Lovely old farm cottages. Needs roses round the door, willow tree, cats, chickens, Border collies and a donkey would be nice. The inside layout a bit weird but could be very nice if someone had the money to fix it. Thank you for another excellent explore. 💖💖

[@VacantHaven]

Yup you've definitely got some plans for this place now lol. Really quaint little English Cortage and land, glad you enjoyed!!

Edd the big tank in the garage is for water suppy as there was no electriary a small farm engine not steam but petrol ..very noisey so a water pump from the well was used to fill that big tank so the engine did not have to run 24/7...go to a car rall or rallies see them in action in the staitiony engine section...small farm engines and old water pumps attached hopefully it comes accross as a o'yerrr moment

[@Sharon-marie]

Thankyou for showing us this beautiful cottage. The polystyrene roof tiles made back in the 70s do contain asbestos apparently but I really want to know why the black mould wouldn't grow on the leaf designed wallpaper, cause whatever those leaves are made from would be brilliant if mixed in with paint and sealants

[@jessparsons8515]

There’s a shortage of housing yet they leave these places to decay. Crazy x

[@jennycampbell5236]

Hi Alex. Another great find. I hate when the videos come to an end. i keep checking to see how much time is left to watch! Did you see what was above the water tank? did you find a large boiler. Perhaps the owner used a steam powered boiler to make electricity hence all the fire extinguishers etc. I am no expert but I am really curious.

[@martinmietz7693]

Cool find that bord game on the attic ❤, nice exploring again 😀 ❤

Homeless folks should seek out these kinds of places. Some rooms are obviously not safe, but the rooms that appear to be dry and sound would be quite nice with a bit of imagination. I don't see why not if house been empty for years with no new owner. As long as respectful and not vandals. Mould is definitely dangerous but some rooms look nice n dry. Such a waste. Nobody should be homeless with all these empty places 😢.
