  • Hey explorers! This was a great way to kick of my Christmas break back out in the country! :-) Sitting proudly off the main roads and in the long grass this old gem has not been touched or lived in for decades. It looks to have have been built around 1900 give or take a few years and I would say abandoned since the mid to late 80`s. Judging by the amazing old antique furniture and other vintage items left behind there was a long time farming family occupying this grand old lady is in pretty much 100% original condition other than a couple window replacements.
    This is my longest explore video yet but it is a deceivingly larger home than the front angle suggest and it kept going and going! I did not even get out to the sheds as daylight was against me. I may very well return to this one again to see if I can find out about its history and film a bit more when the grass is less wild in the winter. :-) Hope you enjoy.

      Abandoned in the 1970s or 80s. It sounds like Elsie on the greeting card lived alone there and then passed away. Why was the furniture moved around and the contents cleaned out? Maybe these pieces were pushed aside to make way for what they really wanted to take. If there was next of kin, wouldn’t they have sold the land? If it was sold, would the new landowner leave the house as it is? Elsie may have been taken to the hospital alive or dead way back then and that was that. People would have raided the house for the more portable items over the years.
      That bedroom with the toilet was probably for an invalid that either Elsie was caring for or was Elsie the invalid?
      Lots of questions. The answers lost in the distant past and it is distant. Nothing there is newer than 40 years old, apart from the VB cans left by squatters.

      @@anSealgair Someone will own it. It’ll be on someone’s farm. The farmer may have built a newer home somewhere else on the farm or it may have been a farm managers house that wasn’t needed anymore. Farms used to require more workers than they do now. They’ve stacked the fireplace mantles like they were planning on selvaging them at some point. It was probably empty but liveable and slowly became empty and not liveable. Anyway, some farmer will own that and be aware of exactly what is in there.

      I really enjoyed this place. Nice tour, and respectfully done. I notice the Singer treadle is the one you have at the beginnings of the tours. My dad sold them for over thirty years , and was an excellent restorer. He could make the machine go back to a perfect stitch. He brought home to me, a sewer,even as a child, to test them out. It was lots of fun! Ive refinished a hoosier cabinet, a duncan phyphe dresser and a bed, and just love the beautiful heavy carved woods. ( Then found out they were worth less than if i had left them alone!) But, we enjoyed them for over thirty years! Thank you. Sweet memories.😊

      Don't know why for sure either. But sometimes when a person passes away, the family is just too far away or too busy to deal with the estate. When we were house shopping years ago, there was one where a lady had passed. The kitchen drawers we're still full, a piano left in the living room that had been rained on by a leaky ceiling, and her slippers were still sitting side by side by her bed. Very sad. 😥

    As someone who deals in antiques and estates and goes into a lot of old houses and barns, I noticed as you went on you kept clearing your throat and even said, "I need water".
    That places was covered in mold, you might not have seen it clear in person, but the furniture was covered in white powdery mold. That stuff coats your throat thick. Sometimes it can cause a couple days of a sore throat, drippy nose, etc.

    What a treat! As an official old person I can confirm that the orange window dressing is 1970s. Having grown up in an old farm house in the 60s, the black shiny door knob plates are very familiar to me. When my family moved in we found everything from lanterns like the ones in your video to newspapers from the 1800s and a chest full of old-timey petticoats! The border work on the walls in your house, though is, I'm guessing, 1980s. Great video thanks for sharing!

      When my mother was around 10 Year's old her younger cousins were playing hide and seek and one of her 6 Year old cousins hid in a Trunk and closed it. The parents and neighbor's looked for hours for him. Finally the children that were playing with him told the adults, "We know where he is, but he is sleeping and won't wake up 😢😥" Obviously when the adults went to the house 🏘️ next door to the Walk up attic the boy was DEAD from suffocation.

    This was so good that I had to watch the whole video again. The 'room ' that was open, had a beautiful kitchenette (next to the bath). This was from the 20s to 40s, before they had the 50s kitchen put in. The open door at the top right was lead lined and that would keep meat cool. Below the beautiful glass part of the cabinet and above the drawer and cupboards was a pull out shelf. This would be used for rolling out pastry or as a worktop. Everything that was needed was within reach in the cabinet. The later kitchenettes of the 50s and 60s were more enamel than wood, but they too had the pull out shelf to use as a worktop. There was just so many wonderful things in there.

      @@Pruzie83 Thank You Prue! I have seen a number of those cabinets in the UK, but the one in the video was spectacular. I almost bought a pre-war wooden one about 20 odd years ago, but it wasn't quite as nice. A few years later they became quite popular as did much many wooden antiques, but brown wood has fallen out of favour again apart from with those who appreciate it. The things in that house that will always be popular are the Art Nouveau and Art Deco items. Everything in that house was not the 'standard model' - it all had that little bit extra. Even the sewing machine in the front room had fancy additions to the drawers and sides and would have been more expensive back in the day. Forgot to mention in my earlier posts that all singers can be identified as to when and where they were made by the serial number on the front (there is a metal piece in front of the main stem on the right side of the machine that holds the side wheel).
      I could watch in-depth videos on so many individual items of furniture in this house, because it was so wonderful to see them!

    The old singer sewing machines and gramophones remind me of a lot of the stuff that my grandparents had in their home but hardly ever used anymore. Another thing that struck me was how incredibly well preserved everything is because of the dry Australian weather. If This Were in Oklahoma everything probably would have been rotted out by mold already and the ruse would have collapsed from exposure to storms.

    Happy New Year! What a fabulous house! It was so deceptive from the front as it looked fairly small, but it was huge! There was furniture ranging over many decades from the Victorian/Edwardian bedroom washstands with the marble tops (they would hold a large bowl and jug of water and the marble wouldn't get damaged like wood). There were a couple of pieces of beautiful Art Nouveau furniture, as well as the Art Deco and the kitchen appeared to be 1950s. The room with the rat - the first thing you touched was a top cover for a sewing machine. The border on some of the walls at picture rail height was original from the 20s/30s. Such an incredible find and I loved the longer video! Thank you!

      @@debrastory9457 You are complaining about the best explorer on YT, who has probably built up quite a bit of knowledge on what he sees, but humbly allows us to tell him what we are seeing. I have watched other explorers in the past who have no respect for the properties they are looking at (something which really angers me) or are constantly advertising or asking for donations. Urbex Indigo does none of this and finances all of his videos himself, which is ironic because he is one that I would donate to - even as a once a year thanks for all of the interesting explorations that he brings to us.
      Another irony is that you complained about him not opening drawers, but then in the next sentence tell him to speed it up in the next video. You can't complain about attention to detail when you are not doing the same yourself! '-)
      I take it that you had a bad day and just wanted to 'share' your mood, instead of moving on. Odd that you picked on Urbex Indigo to do so!
      P.S. You also complained about what you deem to be the overuse of a word - may I just say that overuse of the exclamation mark at the end of a point that you are trying to make doesn't make it look more powerful or even valid. To me it states the opposite. I would be much richer than you if I had a dollar for rolling my eyes at every post that overuses them. Hope you have a better day and engage brain fully before commenting when in a strop. :-)
      Edited to add my P.P.S. I have just watched this wonderful video again (thanks for the prompt!) because I wondered about the use of the word 'pristine' and couldn't recall it. Had to laugh as the word(s) that were actually used were 'pressed tin' - an accurate description which was used twice for different ceilings (there were many and some were wooden) and once for a fire screen. Sorry again that you had a bad day and that your hearing was off kilter, too! :-)
