- Hey house lovers and explorers!
This video we take a look at this massive early 50`homes. Look can be deceiving from the front but there is room after room after room of old 50`s retro. Unfortunately it is in rough shape and from my understanding it used to be a hoarders home for its last use.
It would have started life as a very upper class and expensive one level mansion almost and the art deco themes are classic to revival period also known as waterfall style. This is one that I would absolutely love to see in original condition. Still heaps to see though including a massive lap pool and a hidden shed with stuff in it that almost remained unseen.
Hope you all enjoy. Cheers for watching :-)

This home has more character than the tract offering proposed to replace it. I would have bought it and brought the elegant mid-century maid back to her former glory!
Would be a great one to restore OW :-) How it became neglected who knows. Cheers for watching :-)
Exactly! It's sad to see these classic well built home's with actual character not being kept up and appreciated.
I Agree Orion. kindest thoughts to you and your family and Furbabies from the State of Victoria
That bathroom was awesome,, same with the kitchen. Couple of classic pushies in the shed ,, one looked like a repco but couldn’t make the others out . I’ll screenshot them and enlarge them ( love old bikes ) . Great find mate , she was a classy dame back in the day I’m sure.cheers mate.
I love the green bathroom - it would have been awesome to see when it was brand new! (Just an awesome colour & layout!)
The glorious fireplace mantle! Loved it, so perfect, exactly what I'd love to have if we could have a fireplace. The green bathroom was lovely, just surprised it was relatively small for such a vast house, with the bath squeezed at the back. The spacious kitchen must have been so nice to cook and have a meal in. The magical waterfall shape of the house! Thank you for such a beautiful visit. It is so sad that it came to this state of decay, and will be replaced with a nice but impersonal house. But you saved it forever in our collective memories :)
I love love love that kitchen!!!!
When I was younger, I used to clean vacant houses for different realtors. I would’ve walked in to that 1950s waterfall house, then immediately walked out back and cried. 😢
amazing grand house, even in ruin it is beautiful, they must have had servants back in the day
Love the bathroom !!!
Oh wow i agree this house would have looked great in its prime, if only those walls could talk, shame the ceiling can't lol. That bathroom is so Green, but it is so cool... if it was in great condition i'd so love to live there. Thanks for sharing Cheers MM :)
Good morning Paul this home has a lot of character and I’m sure it was beautiful back in the day. I hate seeing the older homes being demolished. They were built better than they are today. Thank you for sharing have a great day 😊
We are in the process of renovating a 1954 beauty if you would like to have a look Paul.
Feel free to get on touch if it interests you. 😊
You can definitely see the hand of a countryman in the planning there. Really went bonkers on the blueprints, and told the builder to throw everything in the pattern book at the kitchen, must have sunk a packet into it Right down to the pediment tile work to match the deco stepped alcove in the bath. Lovely early 50's red\& white in the kitchen so appropriate to the time. Wow. Good Job Catching it before the end came.
I don't mind the abundance of space in those 50s homes. One very beautiful and loved home at some point of time.
Hope you made another home for that Dire straits record! One of the 80s best!
Im glad you wore your mask for this explore Paul as it had a heap of black mould!
What a home this would have been when it was first built. That Art Deco bathroom was spot on! And the red and white kitchen was big here in the 40’s and early 50’s in the Midwest, US. We are a two generation family living in a large house. My dream would be to have a small house about 600 to 800 sq. feet. The more available space the more stuff comes in, less space one is choosier about what is brought into the home. Having stuff keeps me busy taking care of it and less time for what I’d rather be doing. So I’ve been busy donating to the public library, church thrift store, and goodwill. The hardest to give away are the books, but still have more to do. I don’t envy the big house, but having a pool like that!! That makes me a tad envious 😁. Thanks for the video Paul👍🏻😊
Cheers for watching Marilyn :-) Yes books seem to be hard for many people to let go I have realized :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 I have sold a few Gregorys car manuals on ebay, since I have no intention of getting the sort of cars in them, the Valiant CL CM fetched nearly $30 to a NZ buyer. I now ride a fat ebike and I found the Sturt coppers are absolute shits, always picking on me, even on 2 wheels and once walking past Bob Jane on Marion Rd at night with nanna trolley
Gee that toilet is a long way back, you wouldn’t want to be busting, lol
And in the main bedroom you would have no chance to change your room around it will stay in the same position for ever😮 So much cupboard space in that huge kitchen.
Love the bathroom, what a great home and big. Thanks Paul for another great video 😊
I really liked the mantle,in the living room.The layout was a little strange but bet it was a beauty back in the day.Another great one Paul 👍❤️🇺🇸
I think that was a his and hers dressing room off that bedroom, or maybe some kind of shared dressing, sleeping and study space for kids.
What a lovely old home. It would have been stunning in its hay day. Being a hoarder is a mental condition. I would say it was an older couple living in the house with the two different height marks on the wall as though it was used for their stabilty when walking. Maybe they were overwelmed with everything and it got out of control.
What a house!.
What a Beauty!
That bathroom "Magnificent "
Would have been something to see in it's day.
One of the better houses you've explored Paul!
Thanks! 👍👍👍👍
🇺🇲
Glad you enjoyed it John :-)
Love the Arrow supermarket bag in the back shed, under the Readers' Digest condensed book. Don't think they've been around for 30years or more.
Wow!! This was amazing!!! Been watching your channel for awhile now, Paul, (hitting the 'thumbs up' button every time!) and I do believe this is your largest, residential home explore to date! She must have been something back in the day, when her floors were polished and the furniture was placed just so! Can you imagine what we would have seen had we gotten there before the reno started? I don't think it'd ever seen an update in all the years she stood - and I'm wondering if the house wasn't built some time in the 1920's (I only say that because the button handles on the cupboard (cabinet) doors in the kitchen looked exactly like the ones my parent's had on their original cupboard doors, and their house was built in 1921). I had to chuckle when you noticed the broken down bicycle in the first bedroom (with the built-in headboard), and came across the bike wheel in, I think, was the last bedroom and thought, "Well, there's the rest of the bike!" - they sure did like their bikes, didn't they? The fact that you even thought to plow through that foliage to find that hidden shed - too cool (I would have stopped at the pool skimmers laying there on the ground and wondered who's hands of those that lived in this house had placed them there...possibly expecting to come back and put them away properly, but never did), and because of that, I would have totally missed that hidden path...well, that and worrying about your awful Aussie spiders lurking in the bushes! Anyways, this was A Most Excellent explore and, as always, so glad you shared!
That house was probably gorgeous in it's day, but definitely a maze!! I'm surprised that no one salvaged the beveled mirrors. I Iove large kitchens, would have been amazing to see set up & clean.
Other than the pool, the backyard was almost anticlimactic compared to the house, perhaps because it was so overgrown.
It's sad how hoarding destroys a home.
Was that a movie reel on the floor of the shed?
Paul To Just Take a Moment Back in Time To see when this Beautiful Home was First Built how Amazing. I will Never Understand How The Human Race Become Hoarders, I Understand it's a Mental Illness, But As a Sufferer of O.C.D Cleanliness and Organisation It really Is A Horrible Thing To Suffer From. That Fireplace at the start Stunning. kindest thoughts to you and your family and Furbabies from the state of Victoria. Brilliant Video Thank you Paul
I think this was one of your best explores. What a sad end to a magestic, old dame. I’d love to know the history on her. Could have been a huge rich family, or a famous athlete with a training pool. Thanks for the tour, it will have me dreaming all day.
good video
Wow! What find. Would have been stunning in its day. I would cost a bomb but it doesn’t look too far beyond restoration. The bathroom was incredible. Thank for posting 👍
Cheers for watching Ken, glad you enjoyed :-)
wow this place would be perfect to fix and live in.i am amazed on how beautiful this place is? man if i could have that place id be in paradise and with me family ! there are 8 of us .I live in united states . Thank you so much friend for this explore and all the details you are awesome to boot. Take care friend from Barbara
Urbex Indigo thanks for sharing this video with me about Abandoned- Huge 50`s home with huge Pool and hidden shed with stuff this video was very interesting because it is nice to see how your country does thing i really enjoy your channel and i am glad i am part of it so i can enjoy it i am from the U.S.A And i will always show support to your channel and keep watching your videos and give a thumbs up and to share you out my friend and God Bless and thanks again.
Great job
My God... what a magnificent home! I can only imagine what this must have looked like in its prime 🥰 Come on... Aren't there any millionaire Aussies watching this with the rest of us that would like a little 'restoration project' with this beauty? 😊😁
Cool video Urbex really beautiful back in the day cheers 🍻
Paul, what an amazing find. I too, would've loved to have seen it in original condition. The mantel in the living room was so different. And the main bathroom was very nice. Thank you and take care. Cheers from Arizona.
Glad you enjoyed it Cynthia :-) Original condition would have been a sight to see!
The same thing is happening in Calgary, Canada beautiful old homes being knocked down and replaced with unaffordable hideous square modern boxes that have absolutely no character or charm.
Man, that bathroom is utterly spectacular! The sun-ray motif in the floor, the gorgeous shiny "deco green" and black tiles, the matching china of the tub and basin. The stair-step "zig zag" threshold headers are icing on a magnificent confection. I love it!!!
problem is with hoarding its usually others that have to clean it up
That is after hoarder is kicked out or passed away
That would have been beautiful back in the day or even now if it had been taken care of properly. Hoarding is usually brought on by depression and/ or panic disorder and the person not being taken care of and shown the love they needed just like the house.
The games room was a film room that hole was for the film projector also note sound reduction material around it.
How long did this house sit empty? Did the hoarder just recently move out? Watching from Arizona USA
About 8 years or so I think Kx2 , cheers for watching :-)
That would have been a dream kitchen in it's prime.
I know! Largest room in the house it seemed like :-) Cheers for watching
Maybe that weird little room set with the en suite was staff quarters.
Oh my goodness Paul. What a lovely home it must have been in its day, yes, I think that cabinet was a gun cabinet. Watching from Festus,Missouri. 🇺🇸
Please save the bikes,don't let them go to the land fill. 🙏
Hoarding disorder such a tragic disorder that does not care what demographic you come from. Sad to think there was such despair in this home. I am floored by this treasure of a house. How it hasn't been saved is beyond me. It is hard to watch you film this and know that it is going to be destroyed. What a find. Thank you for sharing it with us. Waving from Maine.
Cheers Susan! :-) Yes hoarding is present in my family history lol :-)
@Unknown Reflection Hello!
@@urbexindigo5164 Mine too Paul.
@@urbexindigo5164 Join the club, I used to do hard rubbish around Glenelg, Mitcham, Burnside, West Torrens council zones, they now have book appointment pickups and you can't find vintage audio, VCRs, tapes, records these days in Hrubbish
This dear ol home would’ve been so POSH back in its heyday. Would love to see a floorplan! Very intriguing, thanks for your care in showing us all the amazing details. Best TV ever! ❤
Hoarding happens everywhere and to anyone. It's a common problem you'll find in the community. All communities. Thank you for sharing
There are some TV shows about hoarders 1 Hoarders 2 Hoarding buried alive 3 Hoarder next door (UK)
This on was nicely filled, when it was filled with whatever they had you walk away with some bugs on ye.
thats so dam sad. what a gem this is.
It's like a rabbit warren...little rooms everywhere...seemed very dark and dingy to me. Shame there was no power..could have turned a light on ... I doubt they could put an air con right next to a sink these days..lol... Makes some sense, cooking etc on hot days....and those power boxes and old fuses..what a pain they were. Could never find any fuse wire when you needed it..lol...My fav part was the backyard...a child's adventure playground..love it....
Cheers for watching Jennifer, yep hide a seek for sure here! :-)
I’m curious as to the floor layout. There was that one little room with the toilet and another with only a sink and shower. Could they have added a wall separating the two? Nice find!❤
A lot of curves this house has, shelves, fireplace the outside of the house. I guess the liked things with curves.
So to read the meter, they have to come inside? That is what they did when I was a kid, but ours was in the basement.
I do not like the air conditioner above the sink, constantly blowing on my face.
What a shame. This is a fabulous home! I would love this so much! I'll bet the ceilings had very nice details (medallions or rosettes) with awesome light fixtures! HUGE kitchen! I just love that place so much! I'm sad it's going to be demolished.
Not sure how such a stunning house from the 40s/50 got that bad. My house is from 45 and still in good shape, just needs some cosmetic work. The art deco features on that house are incredible. That second room off the master could be a dressing area. I've seen them in expensive homes here.
I always imagine how all the places you explore would have looked back in their heyday. But this one would have just been incredible ❤
How many old beauty must we loose to cookie cutter , no charm " box" that will be painted the same color all the way thru, gurmised Exactly like your next door neighbors when the million dollars?spent on , new" construction vould save tjisvivonic home for the future. Breaks me into to see no one cares about the past anymore. It's like the vehicles to daycare all 0lastic and look Exactly alike with only four colors. How sad! How just perfectly sad.
This house was built in the 1930’s…The door knobs tell the tale as well as the art deco bathroom. Just gorgeous!
Curved glass is a postwar thing, it would have been imported from UK.
People start hoarding usually die to some trauma or loss....it can be for many reasons...this house is wonderful.....I could live in it one that bathroom was redone...lol
"We are planning on knocking down this wonderfully styled home to bring you these boring planned homes for you." Ugh! I hate developments at times. I understand about progress, but I would rather have my home with some outside personality as well. That means for it not to look like a clone of the others. I love me some art deco-stylized homes.
It’s a shame this beautiful home wasn’t shown more love in it’s last years! Thank you! The main bathroom was gorgeous!
Maybe it was a combination of the who lived there. And the gangs that came in there stuff. Also there was some really ugly black mold in there. Take care, have a good week.
Awesome house, such a shame... the bathroom actually scares the 💩 out of me. Bit eerie. But if only that bar could talk...
Another fine example of our wastefulness. They could have renovated this lovely place.
This place was a awsome explore mate there was a skip at the font with trees growing in it. So they finally moved it it’s been sitting there for months loved that shed with all the odds and sods in it. And the bathroom was so cool an excellent explore mate cheers
Will do a history follow up on this one too mate :-) 2years ago ADL Urbex sent me a pic of this place full of stuff but the pics was a couple years before that :-) Cheers for watching
@@urbexindigo5164 awsome mate heather has a good version of this one her and Megan went in there October last year thinking it still had a roof too I was recovering from a bad leg couldn’t walk so didn’t get a chance to go in had to sit in the car and keep an eye out
@@wernersadventures8330 cool will have to look for that one too. We will have to film some together soon mate 👍😁 I'm up to my eye balls in research atm for some explores I have on file.
@@urbexindigo5164 definitely mate I’m going through the country areas finding them more interesting but yer can’t wait to do a collaborative explore
@@urbexindigo5164 I’ll get Heather to message you with the footage they went in there at night
I love the green bathroom that's what been a nice house
Sure would have been Larry :-) Cheers for watching
I’m with you, I would have loved to see this home it’s prime. I can tell she was a beauty. Too bad this home fell into disrepair.
That bedroom that wrapped around, may have been the maids quarters. Possibly.
Previn: A Different Kind of Blues, EMI and it's very strange album lol
This house was pretty neat. If we had seen it when it was in its glory… Thanks for the tour!
Amazing property, great explore. So good to get a property like this documented.
That word said first part of video was word some made up
In old days people didn't thur stuff out and used it tell fall part or no longer useful ness in any way people need stop using at word
Yes, must have been quite a home in it's day. Still is, I a diff way, era. Careful.
Why carnt this house be brought up to date ? or is it the foundations in England house like these are done up same
Loved it , thanks Paul
Grass looks too kept up. I think someone may be watching the house.
Paul, that two story home at the intro, with the beautiful curved staircase, have you been thru that already? Definitely a must see. That was an enormous house! Nice
Have not uploaded a few in the intro :-) Soon..... :-)
It would be interesting to know what it cost to build compared to building it today
I have to ask what is the artist in the intro of your videos I never heard that version before!
all the walls are stained at same height as if someone was in a wheel chair
That is a very large property! Crazy huge house. I'd love to live in a home that big. That pool is crazy too. I quite liked that bathroom with the seperate little alcove for the vanity. That was cool. Shame they won't reno the plac. I'd change that pool though. Make it smaller and create a yard and BBQ/entertainment ara somehow. Great find!
Thanks for watching Michelle :-) Glad you enjoyed, yes what a massive home! I agree the pool could be smaller but it was definitely built for swimming laps and training to keep fit. Will do a follow up with former history when the place is gone. :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 Oh yeah, for sur. You'd def keep fit in that pool haha. Oh ok a follow up will be cool. Lookingforward to the follow up. 👍
@@urbexindigo5164 What council zone this house?
Morning such a shame could have restored her
Wow the random appliance in the middle of the kitchen floor was an original 1950's top loading dishwasher! very unique and rare! You can see the circular dishracks for it sitting around the counters and floor nearby.
What a grand home it must have been and that pool !
really like the old green and black bath room
Me too. 😃👍
That certainly was a very nice house at one time, wasn't it? I like that large kitchen. Yes pretty big house. Sure got trashed badly.
Cost lots $$$ these days to buy and build
It must of been a beautiful home in the past such a shame about the hoader which is sad to hear.
Don’t tear it down. There’s life in it yet!
Well that was a great find Paul. I could imagine that being a doctors house, it would have been beautiful in its day. There would have been so much stuff being a hoarders house much much more than a normal sized house. What I would love to know how many skips they took to the tip. Thanks Paul keep up your great finds and sharing then with us
WIll do a follow up with more info Anne :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 also find out what else they hoarded apart from bikes and books
The 3 connected rooms were an add on.
Another great Explore! It was once a beautiful home,I like the bathroom. Such a shame to see the decay. Thanks for the video! Greetings from Germany🙂
How beautiful this home would have been new. That green bathroom!!! Man, wish I could ve seen it new.
It does not look so huge from outside , WOW!
aww thats a shame , i like that one
Glad you were wearing a mask for that one. I’m not a huge fan of Art Deco, but still a fascinating explore. What a find!
A great explore.... They always are! ❤️
Are they refurbishing that place?why would they tear the ceiling out?
Another waste of another house. Wonder what is going there instead?
A 20`s style bungalow looking dwelling :-)
"New kids on the block" a prophetic message.
lol :-)
Huge home, and i could see past the dirt and grime to know it was a lovely place when it was being taken care of. Sad to think what could have happened to the owners to have come to this. Thanks for the walk Paul cheers!! 💜☮️
Interesting place. I can't say that I'm fond of the built-in bed and dressers in the bedrooms. There's no way to rearrange things when you want a change. In my opinion there are too many built-ins for my liking because they really limit furniture arrangement and the same goes for the curving walls in the living room.
In fact this house isn't appealing to me at all. That tunnel-like toilet area is strange and the fact that there are only two toilets in that very big house, both tucked into cave like spaces is a turn off big time.
Apparently they were very grimy people, leaving trails of oily dirt on the walls where they crept along amongst the junk they hoarded. Nasty.
I get bad vibes off of this house. I usually like this art deco style but even the outside is off-putting to me; it's like their insane thoughts linger on in there.
A very good video of a very bad house.
ohhhh paul i love
Hoarding is a mental disorder. My mother was a hiader, it made childhood very difficult. I remember once doing a clean up , thought I would surprise her when she got back from my sisters, she was so upset. When she had calmed down she told me I had no idea what it was like living through the war and going without, she was not going to go through that again. Helped me reconcile my feelings regarding her hoarding.
