    I absolutely love Art Deco! My style is Southwestern/Aztec design and it fits in perfectly. This one though, has to be one of my all time favorites! I really hope they save those windows and doors. If I didn’t live in America I’d be over there looking for someone to sell me those. 😢Thanks for showing us. ❤

    I love both these beautiful homes, but i especially love the first one. I loved the beautiful stained glass windows in the first one.I loved the big walk-in pantry. The kitchen was bigger and better in the first house and i loved all the beautiful fireplaces in both houses. It is really sad that the families had to move for a tunnel to be put in. Keep up the good work i am loving the video's. ❤

    What a beautiful house! What makes me angry is when it has been destroyed for another purpose as in the front room. It's such a shame that this house is going to be torn down when it could be restored for future generations. Thanks for the tour Paul. Glad you got to explore this before it's gone.

    Agree with other commenters, glass in the windows is lovely!
    I also love the old kitchen cabinets, so fitting for this old Grand Dam. Reminds me of being a child at my great grandma’s house. I’m a sucker for old homes and have a small 1932 brick Tudor house.
    I’m so amazed to see each lovely old home you find and document! Cheers to all you’re hard work.

    This is a very nice vacant house from the 40's both outside and inside
    in a nice suburb area but to bad it will be torn down soon by developers
    but glad that you got a chance to explore and film it before it is demolished
    it really was a great place to live with a nice property, it has a lot of rooms
    in it and was a nice looking house for many years as always this is another awesome find in an abandoned house and until next time have a great week
    and thank you for another great video.🏘🇦🇺👍

    Some of the Art deco features remind me of grandparents home (long ago). Very cozy, comfortable style back then to go and stay - even the flooring used then was lovely (would possibly opt for that flooring style today - looks as if was quite attractive & impressive!). Same backyard/garden potential (vibe) brings back some pleasant memories!!

    Hi Paul
    Very nice house. A little different from the usual ones you do.
    You teased us when you had the camera looking in the mirror.
    I would have liked to see what you look like. You’re a tease.
    The squatters really made a mess in that house. I always hate to
    see these beautiful old homes used as a grow house. It makes me
    feel sick and also sad. They probably moved out after they grew
    what they needed. I liked the kitchen very much. It’s big and has
    lots of storage cabinets. The outside of the house was beautiful
    with all the curves and those cool looking pillars. This explore was
    very cool Paul. Thank you for showing us around today. Stay safe
    and well.👍🆒❤️

Beautiful bedroom storage closet and drawers, love the trim on the doors. Another beautiful home bites the dirt. So sad to see, but probably sadder for you to see it.

    The room with the mattress was a dining room I bet. And the room next to that might have been a study? The first bedroom witH all the cabinets and drawers might have been the master.....you think? This was a good one!!!

  • @Pruzie83
    @Pruzie83 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    She was such a beautiful loved home at some point. How its so disrespected in this way is beyond me😢
    The room in the left of the front enterance may have been the formal dining room maybe. As the sliding doors would have been glass as you said the ones found in the shed ( not much privacy for a bedroom, originally). The mainbedroom might have been the room with the pretty queen Anne style built in wardrobe maybe, just a guess.

  • @nancywindbigler6434
    @nancywindbigler6434 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I imagine they did use that room with the mattress as a bedroom. That's why they took the art deco doors off...cause you could see through them!! I love a good puzzle!

    Paul,I think in the kitchen where you talked about the terrazzo block, that was the old sink against the back wall of the house before the veranda extension was built..recon a 50's upgrade was done with sash windows and stainless sink on the side wall.

  • @jeffrey3895
    @jeffrey3895 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    That house has Adelaide written all over it. The architecture in Adelaide is quite unique. Born in Adelaide but lived in Melbourne many years. You would not find a house like this in Melbourne. Their take on art deco is quite different. Love Melbourne art deco. Hate this. It is well constructed but someone got it wrong. Should have stuck with the classic Adelaide Tudor architecture which is truly iconic.

    • @veganandlovingit
      @veganandlovingit 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was thinking the same, and the previous family probably did sell it in good condition. I think maybe when they are just buying house for using it as a grow house (lots of money) then selling it/the land that can support a couple of homes, when land prices increase too, they have made a lot of money. They don't care about the house or it's details. Kind of explains the bed, toys and the sofa (people guarding the grow. Possibly a woman and her small kids). The doors were probably changed for added security. Time to call for back up if anyone (squatters for example) did try to enter the home. I was wondering if that food container at the end was an Asian brand. I can almost imagine this being a big organised crime type of operation and is going on under peoples noses everywhere. And less suss if women and children coming and going. And nosy neighbours may be less likely to become friendly and ask questions if non English speaking too.

    • @urbexindigo5164
      @urbexindigo5164  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      That was my initial thoughts too. My research shows the first owner purchased the land in 1938 but his name only appeared in the directories as a resident in 1943 which usually means the home was built the year before as the directory information was collected the previous year in order to be printed in time. During wartime you are right that more ornate homes were built in fewer numbers and only by more wealthy folk 😁👍

    Paul those round lemons are probably grapefruit. A carport is not totally enclosed, after it has 4 sides or is enclosed witha roller doorand is free standing,, it becomes a shed, That front room with changed double doors, could of become a bedroom due to the growth of their family. Also there seemed to be a lot of wasted space but at Christmas & other occasions the house could become 6 bedrooms. Bye cheers to you Jenny Adelaide, South Australia

    I don’t understand stupid, so I have no idea why anyone would replace those beautiful art deco doors. 🫤 Our state legalized cannabis, making illegal growers obsolete. We can grow our own, or pop into a shop and choose from a wide array of products. I’m glad for those who imbibe, and it’s cut our crime rate. Beautiful home! ❤️ Thanks!
