- Hey guys I found this home by accident while driving so I stopped off to check it out and indeed it is abandoned. I have tried my best to date it and I have come up with around 1915 as it has art nouveau themes and early bungalow features which came in around that time. It has a return veranda that has has had the roof redone but no front gable which was a reason it was hard to date from the outside. It seems to just predate the common bungalow that was extensively built in Adelaide from around 1916 to the mid 30`s. The art nouveau themes is what makes think it was not older than 1915 but I would love to know your estimates on the date? :-)
Pretty much still all original inside which was great to see although in need of some love. The houses either side of this are also vacant/abandoned and at the time of this upload one has been demolished so I`m guessing this one and the bungalow to the right will have the same fate. I got to film the one on the right also another day once I realised it was also vacant. Hope you enjoy :-)
If someone with some carpenters skill bought that nice little house, imagine how it would look under their gentle restoring hand!
A nice find you had there!
Hi William, yeah I would like for this one to see some love and go on for more decades. Thanks for watching :-)
I LOVE the way u say "hello" in your deep scary voice...💞💞
Haha yes gayle I must scare of the intruders! lol Thanks for watching :-)
So many original features to this house. I love the Tessellated tiles, deep bathtub, stained glass lead light windows and the glazed brick fireplace.
I recon your right about the old garage, either that or it was a massive solarium 😆😆. The brick pillar in the garage was originally the framework for a wood or coal fired "copper" to heat water for clothes washing. It would have been quite a nice home in its day with a fairly substantial rear garden as well. Thanks for sharing this explore, great as usual. 👍
So good seeing it still pretty well original Tim. One house to the left of this has been demolished, the one on the right is vacant too, I filmed it. So maybe all 3 will get knocked down. Cheers mate :-)
I thought the out building had the look of a clothes washing room space in its original use. Thanks for clarifying.
Aside from the structural damage..now..i bet that home was once a solid well built place that sheltered a family or more that loved it. Love the stained glass, doors, and old vents.
I love the bathroom with the tiling on the floor, the basin and the claw-foot bath! Those sinks always reminds me of the farm house I grew up in and my grandma’s place. I’ve always wanted a claw-foot bath!
I love this house! There are so many details that make it special. I especially like the stained-glass windows as well as the painted plaster and the arch in the hallway. The bathroom with its claw-foot tub was also fun. Thanks for taking us along on this explore.

Hi Doreen! :-) It is a homely abode I agree and I love the old features too. Glad it has not been grafitt or vandalized, thanks for watching :-)
Love the stained glass!
Hi Pamela, thanks for watching :-)
Love this house. The stained glass and stenciling on the walls are beautiful. I live in Canada so I also love hearing the different bird songs. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed this one Sylvia and are enjoying the sights and sounds of Australia :-) Thanks for watching :-)
Hi Sylvia! From Ballarat, Victoria, Australia.
Thanks for your work filming these houses .
I just love everything about this house, the claw bath, the stained glass, period features. Yes I did enjoy this explore. Thank you very much for a peek at this beauty :)
The stained glass is gorgeous. Quite the kitchen. I'd say the date is also around 1910. I like the patio in the brick.
I love this place! Looks like an artist may have lived there and worked out in the shed. Love the use of stained glass. Prodigious by today's standards and yet just a touch to lighten up each room. None of them were overdone in any way. Thanks so much for sharing it with us! (I agree on the dating - maybe 1910 - 1915).
Hi Paul, another awesome video. I especially liked the stained glass around the front door.
That was some nice glass work hey Deborah, thanks for watching :-)
I would take that house in a heart beat! So much could be done to save it and I just love the character of this one!
Its a beauty hey Breezy B, thanks for watching :-)
I'm amazed on how you find this beautiful houses ,you really got an eye for detail ,I love this houses in and out ,like I told you before I love what you do ,I found a little one abandoned before it was demolished for new development and I done a little film, just like you told me just try it and I love to be able to do more it's very rewarding , can't wait for your next video ,have a great weekend 🤗 from a Frenchy in Australia 🇫🇷🇦🇺
Hi Francoise :-) So glad you gave it a try and filmed one! Good on you :-) It is rewarding and you learn a lot about the houses. I hope you find more too. Glad you are enjoying these videos, many more to come. Cheers :-)
This is a fabulous home. Stained glass and grill work, nice fireplace , high ceilings and the tub are great! So it needs some foundation work and touch up. I want to move in today! Enjoyable video!
Whoa. Seriously classic find! All in all add this to one of my favorite explores of yours! Made me cry internally thinking of this home's future fate. Absolutely love the windows, fireplaces, trim, and doors. Add to that the original paint and stenciling in the hallways. Wow. Would love a bathroom as nice as that one, too. Thr architectural details of that era do wow me. Another great explore! Thank you so much for making my morning.
Hi Willie, so glad you liked this one too, I really enjoyed filming this one! :-) Always great to see the original features still left as was. I`m thinking this one may be demolished as the one behind it and the one to the left have now been demolished! Bummer, thanks for watching :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 Such a total bummer. I figured as much.
Great house. I love all that stained glass. Thank you for finding and sharing this beautiful house.
I think your right about the date. I'm with you on the leaded glass can never get enough of it. Good explore Paul
Hi Jo, glad you enjoyed :-) Thanks for watching :-)
I really liked the kitchen and the green shed
Prayers your safe from the corona virus
They just announced there is the first case on Indiana. I have COPD so I'm really nervous. And my new job is in a call center.
I love the nostalgic vibe of this adorable home, especially the Art Nouveau stained glass and stenciling in the hallway. Wow--if only someone would restore it, what a treasure it would be!
Lovely chandelier. Nice unique fireplace.
I love this style of house. I love the rambling halls and paint choices. Wonderful kitchen. I would love to live in a house like this. Charming with art Deco details. I hope this Grand lady isn't torn down for a small bland apartment or house. Beautiful explore, they don't build them like this any more. .. so many graceful details like the fire places and claw foot bath tub...
Loved the fireplaces and woodwork... shame it’s abandoned... great explore
Great find once again. Love that it's all original. I love the old clawfoot tub especially. I miss mine for sure.
Glad you enjoyed Lea, thanks for watching :-)
A very nice old place with very nice features, i was expecting one of those very old stoves in the kitchen actually :-)Have a great weekend.
Hi rolf, yes I think the old original stove got taken away at some point unfortunately. Thanks for watching :-)
Awesome find! Really sad to see those walls cracking from floor to ceiling. Would be worth salvaging all the beautiful touches. I don't know how they are able to repair those foundation issues other than taking up the floors. Thanks for sharing :-) , another fine job of finding a treasure.
Great video!! The stained glass is amazing, I love the claw foot tub remember bathing in one when i was in grade school, So many wonderful features. !!Blessings to all
The stained glass work is amazing. Hope it gets salvaged! I also loved the herringbone patio. Great house.
Wonderful original details. Amazing the paint patterns and stained glass have survived. Don’t think I’ve seen the door trim quite like that. When you walked in you could see the wear path on the floor. Even with no furniture feels like a true time capsule. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Thanks once again and more power to your next adventure. Good luck and keep safe. God bless 😇 you. Until then.
Thanks for watching Mary :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 you're more than welcome. God bless 😇 you and keep safe. Until then.
What a Grand Old Lady this one is lovely stained glass and all original features even the doors and bath tub. I think your spot on with dates the light switch from the ceiling is called a lazy betty in England usually over a bed . Thank you for showing us around this one sadly has had It's day with the big cracks . Hopefully some features can be taken for reuse take care xx
Thankyou for sharing. Love the stained glass. The mosaic in the laundry was great.
My pleasure for sharing Sarah, glad you enjoyed :-)
Gorgeous old place. Could live in it so happily! Outstanding features and lots of birdsong! Freddie Flintstone cupboard was mmmmmm..... awful!! I believe the kitchen has been altered both in style and size. Again with the large block sold to developers I bet? Yep, looked like a grow room! Ah takes all kinds haha. Thanks for taking us on the tour of this lovely old treasure!
Seems to be in limbo Frankie but they usually end up demolished. Thanks for watching :-)
Beautiful stainglass windows & that claw foot tub! I love how you go into detail. So many different styles from people around the world. So interesting! Thanks again & have a great day! 💜
Hi Donette :-) Yes I love all the details, glad you are enjoying all the styles, thanks for watching again! :-)
That claw bath is really beautiful
I absolutely love antiques. It's a shame that old houses like this get abandoned and not restored to thier original state.
Hi Sandra, yes I`m glad the tub and stained glass are still in tact. Thanks for watching :-)
Love the stained glass and letter slot. I need a letter slot. Thanks for sharing again. Nice find.
Lovely old home and it's delightful that the youngsters these days are taking such an interest in horticultural pursuits , growing your own vegetables is so rewarding.
Thanks Urbex Indigo and another interesting find. The house looks like was built during the late Federation period, when bungalows were first introduced. The stained glass windows point to the house as having the Federation feel.
Yep I agree with your date Julz! :-) Very much liked filming this old gem, thanks for watching :-)
This was a great tour, I can just imagine how beautiful the house must have been in it's prime. Thanks!
Yep I really love this one too, very charming and homely. Thanks for watching Kim :-)
Love the handmade linen cabinet... wish I could go on a explore with you .. great video .. be safe & take care
Simply beautiful, thank you.
In my opinion, your estimation of age is spot on. Great house.
Cheers Steven! I like to know what others think as I just try apply what I have seen from other homes that I do know the date. Thanks for watching :-)
Definitely Art Nouveau/Arts and Craft period. Not something you see everyday, a place this old with all the original interior and glass. It has suffered from time and neglect, but you can see how beautiful it was when new. Nice size lot as well. It’s too bad that it will likely be pulled down with no regard for its history. Good catch. Thanks for giving us a good look before she goes.🖤🇨🇦
Thanks for stopping bye Tamarra :-) Glad you liked it :-)
Urbex Indigo I always try to come see what you are up to when the notifications pop up. I love your style.🖤🇨🇦
I absolutely love these old homes it’s like stepping back in time I would love to live in one of these someday
Hi Paul! I love the wooden floors, claw-footed bathtub, wooden wardrobe closets, and the kitchen with the wall clock stopped at 12:20. The stained glass is so pretty.
So many nice old features for sure Brenda, thanks for watching :-)
Cool find. Thanks for tooling us around 😊
So sad to see so many beautiful houses in Australia been demolished only to be replaced by matchbox houses. How I would love to restore this beautiful house. The rustic wardrobe would look amazing in a country style kitchen. Love the stained glass, and the beautiful chandelier.
Hi Vanda, thanks for watching and yep wouls also love to see this one restored :-)
Hello Urban Indigo. Becareful please and keep safe. God bless 😇 you and, good luck to this adventure.
owner probably died because I could easily imagine a old man living there. Great find thank you.
Very much a real possibility David. Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching :-)
Great explore, liked the stained glass and the big back yard. Thanks
Very original and intact home a real gem of a find!
Hi Costa, glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching :-)
What a lovely, lovely (obviously loved) house! I think if I was building a house for myself I would copy this one right down to the details: front fence and porch columns, doors and high placed hardware, stencils throughout, grill work in front hall,, claw foot tub, chandelier in dining room, kitchen layout and pantry. Oh it is a beauty and was lovingly built. Good find. TFS.
Hi mate, I think your specialising in these Edwardian bungalows good on ya mate , you gotta love the architecture.thank you for posting your vid.
Hi Mark :-) Trying my best to date these! lol Cheers for the support mate, thanks for watching :-)
I love those windows. I wish that was still something one could have in a home now. Stay safe and have fun.
I got my spackle and paint. How much for this beauty? Loved the wrap porch and side entrance. Not sure why they put the stove in the corner. That would have been counter space and moved the cabinets down (but not those, too overwhelmingly)to make room for stove and fridge. The porch would have a table for dining or just sitting with your coffee. The shed would be a nice laundry space. Could hang clothes outside to dry on a nice day. Then add music for dancing while you do laundry. There is enough room. Lol. That house needs love. You can't beat the sound of the birds and kids playing. Makes me smile. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Debra, glad youy enjoyed this one too! :-) I hope this house gets some love. Thanks for watching :-)
I think your time is about early 1900s. I'm glad to see a spot in good condition that isn't vandalized.
Hi JL :-) Yes nice old one this one. glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching :-)
Beautiful stainglass and woodwork. thanks
Glad you enjoyed Paula, thanks for watching :-)
"This house has all the telltale signs of being abandoned....."
Yep that's right - it has an Urbexer creeping around it !!.... Lol....
Hi Tim lol yes that too of course! Thanks for watching :-)
I love the wood floors in this one
Thanks for sharing this. It's a beautiful place but. Spooky at the same time. God bless 😇 you and good luck to your next adventure. Until then.
Hi Mary my pleasure for sharing this, glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching and greetings from Adelaide :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 you're more than welcome my friend. Anytime. God bless 😇 you.
That is an old place. I love the stain glass windows and on doors. The shed you looked into, my first thought was maybe they made ceramic things because it looked like a kiln there to fire up pieces. The place does look to have been abandoned for awhile. Thanks for the video.
I wouldn't mind at all fixing this house to live in! The GALAGA sticker is not a pinball game but a stand up arcade game one of my favorites from the 80s 😊 your videos are great... Love watching them!
Great find. Enjoyed just how the home was. Thank you 😊.
Hi Allie Jo glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching :-)
That shed is sooo strange. I loved this house, thanks for the video 👍
Wow that's a great and nice home!!👍👍👍
Thank you, great explore, love me some saloon doors! Lovely grow room 😀
Glad you enjoyed Janelle, thanks for watching :-)
Urbex Indigo I am already loving it just seeing the outside of the entrance door and the stained glass beside it the dark brick fireplace. Do you think it was painted?The claw foot tub and the ceramic tile on the bath room floor. Oh the furniture the wood blind the air conditioning in the wall.The detail on the walls.The chandelier and the hardwood flooring. The cabinet built into the wall. The black fireplace. Thanks for the nice video be blessed with loving care and grace.PS nice explore I like it Peace out.
Hi Marion, yep I think the first fireplace had a coat of paint over the original glazing, :-)
Love the woodwork
Ha Your voice goes deep when you say Hello 👋
Haha yep it sure does Summer dayz! :-) Need to scare of those intruders.....oh wait....thats me haha, thanks for watching :-)
@Please Try Again. Mr serious at #serious.com
Really hope that all the stained glass work isn't just wasted.
Love exploring these old homes with you. I would say this dates around 1900, before the arts and crafts bungalows. The fire in the garage would have been for the copper to wash clothes.
Hi Julie, yes a couple others agree with your date too, glad I was in the ball park :-) Glad you are enjoying these explores, thanks for watching :-)
Looks like an old Grandma house. Love that it's still mostly original. Great find.
what has caused the big cracks in most of the homes you go into ? i love all the stain glass so much of it thru this house. so surprised no one painted the walls after all those years. thank you for taking us thru these old houses. keep up your videos...take care
Hi karen, the clay soils of Adelaide mostly cause subsidence that then cause these cracks. Thanks for watching :-)
That screaming kid! He gave an atmosphere to the visit.
Yet another bungalow to be destroyed, I can't imagine the new builds would be as large or with such unusual decoration.
Yep Silversurfer, new ones built cheap, small and boring! lol Thanks for watching :-)
really nice and i think at least 100 years old indeed... art deco style!!! also loved the original wooden floors!
greetsz from holland!... max
`
Hi Max, thanks for watching mate :-)
Very cool explore! Enjoyed it!
Hi Fatiha, thanks for watching :-)
Cool find 👍 love the old places
Cheers for watching mate :-)
In the shed I would say that was a wood fired washing copper. I remember my grandmother had one of those. I remember her poking the clothes with a stick to move them around
I think you could be right there wendy. Thanks for watching :-)
I believe your date of build is accurate. 1910 to 1920 at the latest. Very orginal in build but arcatrave around doors, windows and floor skirting have been painted, along with the walls, as colour fade appears to be at a very similar rate. I believe the orginal colour of all woodwork could be in the primitive walk in pantry. Stained flooring appears well cared for and solid. A few of you shots show square access holes cut into floor for inspection and application of termite treatments. Bathroom and kitchen are primitive as you would find in orginal homes, with kitchen having a very basic upgrade. The stained glass doesn't appear to be the era of build, so may be replacements. Possible to update but land would be move valuable. Question : The red highlighting in the passage above the doors. Is that a wallpaper type border or a silkscreen? Never seen anything like the detail before. Another great explore Paul. 👍👍🇦🇺
Hi Andrew cheers for watching and giving your estimate, glad I was in the ball park :-) Yeah that pantry was really old and the red highlighting you are referring to looked to be stenciled right on the plaster? Glad you enjoyed this one mate, one bungalow next to it got demolished and i also filmed the bungalow to the right so maybe there is a big development going in here too.
Beautiful stained glass.
I would say between 1910-1915...I love all of the original features...especially the room doors and the stained glass windows. .....nice size rooms too....nice video Paul. .thanks
Greetings from Texas! I think you're spot on with the dating. The stenciling, interior doors and some of the hardware are very much influenced by American Arts & Crafts/Mission styles. Great find! I just discovered your channel a few days ago and I'm really enjoying it. Keep finding wonderful places!
Very cool. Some of the old homes will have the date it was built in the meter box. (Power box) Looking forward to the next adventure. 😎👍
Awesome tip Lisa, I did not know that! Cheers for watching :-)
What a beautiful bungalow. Would adore something like this. Great explore dude. The stained glass is beautiful. It could be a front door from a 1930’ semi in the UK
I really liked this one too Richie thanks for watching :-)
The stencils on the walls near the ceiling are cool. From those, the stained glass windows, glazed brick fireplaces and the clawfoot tub I'd guess that the 1910 to 1920 age is right on target. The tile floor in the bathroom is also classic early ninteenth century. Weird picket fence cupboard doors??? I don't have a clue, never seen such a thing before. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.
Haha... When you walked inside and called out 'hello' I was waiting for someone to pop their head around the corner and say 'helloooo' I 🤣
Another good video keep up the good work.
Definitely at least in 1930s and 40 s bungalow love the stained-glass windows beautiful home at one time, thank you for sharing loved watching your videos.
Hi Deanna thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed, my pleasure for sharing :-)
Thanks for the tour.
This place was nice.
love the sound of those birds, golly 1915 mayb yes love this old place homely
I was just going to say I heard a kid scream lol. That cupboard looks like may have been built to look like a fort for a boy’s room. The stained glass is stunning. That looked like a washer next to the raised tile area in the shed, maybe laundry was in the shed, hence the insulation.
Yeah the kids were next door Theresa which oddly enough has been knocked down and this one still stands lol Thanks for watching :-)
I just love it thank you for another great video.
OMG! The tub an stain glass are worth a fortune here in the states! StLouis,Missouri here😀
The stencil patterns in the hall remind me of the work of the great Scottish designer C R Mackintosh
This is one of my favs. This house was built to last. Xox
Amazing glass!
Hi Nancy, yes it was very nice, thanks for watching :-)
That kitchen has had all those cupboards added - plus a new stove/oven etc - plus the tiling is new.
Cool house 😀
