Love the under floor finds - I’d love to have a dig around under the floorboards of old homes. The tobacco tins would probably have been left by the builders.
I am so happy you saved the tins and the coins, as they were destined for the trash dump/land fill. What also made me happy was to hear how much they had to pay for the homes xD Thank you for sharing all of the historic heritage homes with us as I get angry about what they are doing I would never get to see inside any of these beautiful if not for your video's.
I'm glad you kept the tins & coins! (I'm glad your 'scrounged' around where they'd pulled up the floor boards. I ❤️ doing that kind of stuff as all kinds of stuff goes down between cracks.)
Hi BD yep I know what you are saying and I guess I see it so often now I get used to it but of late I have seen vintage old furniture and interiors just crushed in the demo process as if it was nothing....Cheers for watching :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 I wish I was younger and had the money and time to start a salvage business with items from old buildings. The waste of precious old items is depressing.
@@kathleenmccarthy3364 Happening in other countries as well because the land becomes more valuable then the building. Where I am in Canada the government actually put regulations in place because agricultural land was being sold away at such a rate the government became concerned if action was not taken evenly there would not be enough land left to grow food . Once placed in the agricultural land use a property can never be used for anything but that .
I just love your enthusiasm when you discover an old, period door knob, or skeleton keys, or turn of the century penny - it is contagious, you know? :) Your love (and appreciation) of the past puts a smile on my face, for certain. I am so glad that you have been able to capture the 'heart' of a place in its (near) entirety before the 'destroyers' come through and start ripping it apart - and I'm glad, on this one, you were able to find a few treasures for your troubles.

they are salvagers, and if they did not, those beautful pieces would be in the landfall. What i hate is the taggers and the real destroyers-the smash just to destroy
Very nice to see inside the two homes. So glad you toured the Queen Anne before the interior was being removed. Nice finding the old coins! Thanks for the tour.
:-) 😊 love them beautiful floors, door hardware, stained glass love the old style keys I have one on a rope necklace the long hallway was nice. Loved the archway detail the claw foot bath 🛁 was nice ready for a long hot soak. Wow you found some treasures too wonderful. The back garden was nice. Nice view by the way. Thank you again as always until next time. :-)
Beautiful homes, but I'm glad you managed to salvage those forgotten tins. Looking at the shoehorn brought back memories of when we tore off a mantle down from below a half chimney. It was was originally where the cook stove was set up. We found period calling cards and a couple of button hooks. Great documenting of vanishing styles. I'm glad they took the stained glass and the lovely light fixtures. Take care, stay safe and healthy.
Bonjour, magnifique visites encore, MERCI, c'est avec joie que nous découvrons vos vidéos, toujours un plaisir. J'aime tant les vieilles maisons, tout ce passé qui surgit, l'abandon qui nous rend triste et le pire les démolitions, mais grâce à vous c'est immortalisé. Merci. Câlins à vos chats. Bonjour de France.
Love this Queen Anne beauty. The Ceiling Rose is Sooooo beautiful AWWWWW the Stained glass at the entrance is So beautiful , AND The archway Unique ,I’m feeling very sad that she will be gone soon . 😢😢😢 THANKU AGAIN PAUL .your a LEGEND and a TRUE BLUE.
Greetings from Maine, USA! I love your finds, as heartbreaking as some of them are. And the music selections set the tone for each video. Thanks for documenting such wonderful buildings before they are lost forever!
Everyone around the world is always talking about saving the trees, planting more trees, etc., but then all these beautiful older yards with umpteen trees, get leveled, just in the name of so-called progress!
Good morning Paul,these houses had both their own beauty,the Queen Anne one ,I loved those doors still with the old keys you can see the difference between the old and the ones more modern,I can't believe those coins and tobacco tins great finds, good that you can take such nice old treasures and collect them,I would do the same ,and what a beautiful place with such great views,I must go and visit Adelaide one day ,have a great rest of your Sunday , 🤗 from a Frenchy in Australia 🇫🇷🇦🇺👍👍👍👍👍💝
Hi Francoise :-) yep the old for me is better than the new :-) I have seen over and over again lately many old things including furniture get crushed and destroyed in the demolition process so I do not feel so bad now at least rescuing a few small things that would otherwise be lost. :-) Cheers for watching again Frenchy :)
Thanks my friend Urbex Indigo for sharing this video with me about the Abandoned- 1905 Queen Anne villa and a 1950 's Condo side by side/ Treasure under the floors .you found a very interesting find it was really cool my friend i really think the place you live is really interesting my friend i am from the U.S.A and i always will enjoy your channel i really enjoy your videos keep up the great work that you do i don't get any notifications when you are on i have to search on my channel list because you tube don't let me know . and be safe my friend and God Bless and thanks again.
WOW!! Love the Queen Anne, I just wish that our councils had more respect for our heritage. Do glad you found the tobacco tins and pennies how exciting. The second house looked like it has a lot of 1920's fixtures. Thanx for another awesome explore 👍🏼xx
I loved the stain glass in the Queen Ann villa. Great fine with the coins, I also would look closer to under the floorboard area of all the homes that you explorer from this time on. No one else would have the collect you would have congrads.
I loved the Queen Anne villa with the lovely stained glass and other features. The other home also had alot to offer, both homes would have been loved by someone. Thank you Paul for the tour and your exciting finds :)
Just started watching your channel over the last couple of weeks and I’m 90% certain the old Queen Anne Villa my grandparents lived there for a few years in the late 40s early 50s, that’s from a story my late mum once told me. Fascinating. Thank you.
Great video. Really liked that first house. Floors, fireplace, stained glass. Second place was nice too, but didn't like it quite the same. Really great finds in there though, all those coins. Thanks, Paul
I loved the 1950s condo, and the light fixtures the layout is unique.. The treasures you found was very cool. Excellent find as always keep up the good work. 😀
Oh that first art deco wall sconce! Love it! Great finds under the floor there. Look forward to see what else may be scavenged from places being torn down.
Thanks so much for watching Jeni :-) Yes I will keep more of an eye out from now although I think there must have been children playing with coins on the floor way back for so many to fall down between the gaps! haha :-)
Both places were charming. The Victorian had too many of the beautiful details removed, but I loved the light fixtures in the 50's contemporary house. Love your presentation style; I'm definitely a fan.
Thanks for another great explore. Highlight of my Saturday 🤪 The Queen Anne was my fav! I would have been scrounging all that debris under the floors looking for treasures, too. Stay safe and looking forward to the next.
Oh wow! What a find! Old tobacco tins are collectables as are the coins. Far better for you to have them than them being buried in land fill somewhere. I have a ever seen a coin from 1904. Thank for the tours.
Loved the turret on the Queen Anne Villa....All the beautiful craftsmanship on show in these homes to be leveled for something similar to the unimaginative "box" that was next to them...This destruction will be regretted one day. Thank Goodness Urbex Indigo has the foresight to document these gems
THE first home was lovely.I am glad you found some cool treasures. I am also happy that the developers salvage items from the homes.As always its ashame the homes can't be restored. Cheers
Hello from N Texas, USA. Love the double fireplace and the wooden floors, and that beautiful stained glass and the beautiful arch. Great looking house and wrought iron fence in front. The condo is not too bad. Great view from upstairs. Great coin find! Thanks for sharing!
Loved the Queen Anne house. Although some of the interior has been updated, enough of the original features remain so that one can see how it might have looked at construction. The garden for that home is so large. The '50s house seems to have some older features. I wonder if it was built from an earlier house. I enjoyed the old finds under the floorboards. It is a step back in time. Thanks for the explore.
Great upload Paul, love the old Queen Anne's. Remember when your salvaging old coins that if you ever find the depression era 1930s Penny, you've struck the jackpot. Good luck with the hunting and look forward to your next old gem.
What a couple interesting explores! Of course the Queen Anne was the finer explore - and the treasures you found were great! I always enjoy vintage treasures, they are the best when found on location! Thanks for sharing sad to see them go, but glad you could record them.
Great video and a nice haul of predecimal coins and tins. Incidentally, we still used Ounces in 1971. Decimal currency was in 1966, on February 14th. Metrication in Australia effectively began in 1966 with the conversion to decimal currency under the auspices of the Decimal Currency Board. The conversion of measurements-metrication-commenced subsequently in 1971. Referee Tobacco was more than likely in the 1940's and made by B. Burt's in Brisbane. Thanks for sharing this video mate.
Cheers for the info Trevor :-) I found an old add on Trove for Referee Tobacco from 1908 and saw the same tin from a 1930`s depression era tool box so been around a while that brand from Brisbane :-)
Thanks for the great video. I loved the Queen Anne home best. Lovely stain glass panes, I’m glad they were saved. It was interesting to see the differences between the two houses, so different. Look forward to your next video xxx
So many people are building modern style houses that are all featureless and all painted white....very sterile. And then these gorgeous houses full of amazing features and the feel of a home, get demolished or destroyed by modern renovations or vandalism. Once lost there is no going back 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I thank you Urbex for keeping their memory alive. 🌻🌻🌻
It's not just "key dates" that can make old coins valuable but also their condition, where they were minted and if there are any "minting errors " on the coins, so always pickup any you find and research them individually very carefully. Always open any old tins in case there is something of value inside them that doesn't rattle around as it's been wrapped in something protective. Great explore - as always !. Thank you for sharing .👍
I love the way these houses are set up. Seems so cozy with privacy. I love coins. My mother got me into them since I was a kid. Always looking forward to your next explore. ☺️
Loved them both. Solidly built at a time people took pride in building. The new(ish) block at the side is characterless in comparison. Those art deco wall and ceiling lights were fantastic. Glad you stayed away from the bees!
Love the Queen Ann Villa but yes they failed on the reno's they did, like the windows I can see they thought they might look like the origanal. Cool finds in the last visit when they started to take it down. The 1950's place was really big. WOW the water way right across the street surely did bring up the price, But look at the junk they will be replacing those great homes with. Thanks for going back for the second and last look.
I really enjoyed going through both houses .Loved the art deco light fixtures and happy that you can add to your collection of tobacco tins . I Suppose they will cut down the beautiful palm 🌴.Lovely view of the water. Thank you.
Hi Wayne :-) Thanks for watching. Yep I have seen too many things get crushed/lost/destroyed in the demo process for me not to take those tins and coins. :-)
Great video lots of cool stuff and i do like your treasure haul, very interesting ... hehe pretty sure i know the area you had filmed in ...nice area pretty expensive though ..... Cheers MM
I have a 1818 house that i bought after someone tried to restore but ended up doing considerable damage (water damage 😕 ) Restoring very old houses is expensive . But repairing and restoration is very expensive. I love old houses but sometimes not all can be saved.
I remember you had another explore showing the enlarged room with the fireplaces left in the center. It was I think a bit newer house but same idea. Such a cool way to open the space.
Another fantastic explore 👍and i know exactly where this is!! loving the queen Anne style and anything in that era is just simply stunning. I saw the two over two doors in the villa that are just like my back door we've just repainted. Our home was built post war 1940, so they must have kept that same style for a while. Nice treasures found!!
The facade of the Queen Anne Edwardian home is charming, apart from the replaced windows, that are not in keeping to the era it was originally built in. I love the internal ornate door fixtures, high ceilings and entry door surrounded by the original stained glass windows. What a fascinating find of olds coins and the depression era Referee Flake Cut Tobacco tins. I'm also curious about the outdoor cellar. The second property is spacious and would have housed a family quite comfortably. Thanks Paul for another interesting explore of two unique style houses.
House 1: Mum's back door used to have a lock and key like that one. Omg marble mantel, looks like they bricked the double flue in to separate it. Love everything about the front hall, you called the side entrance. Beautiful ceiling rose and light in the front bedroom. The turret is a nice reading spot in the bedroom, looks like good sunlight would come in there. 1.5mil and they be pulling it down.. don't see any cracks in this one too. I would say laundry not summer kitchen, cause there was no laundry in the house. wow the old shower, had to light it up themselves I see, to get hot water. The queen Anne even had a slate tiled roof. I think they removed the glossy top floor boards and left the original lower boards there. It's a shoehorn. A 43 penny and 46 halfpenny. It's amazing all the stuff that can be lost under the floorboards. You have a 55 sixpence but not a 57 coin. House 2: Was that a cork wood mantel? That's a nice wall air vent. Mum's was a little fancy but mainly just a grill. The house was big bit had been very modernized.
This was one of the best tours yet. I really love that you picked up the coins and tobacco tins. Why just let them be thrown in the dump when you can enjoy them and who knows, they might be worth something one day.
Awesome finds 👍. If that sore eyed building (guessing apartments) is what is taking these beautiful homes then how sad 😓. Looks like a cheap hotel 🤦. Safe travels mate 💗🕊️
Another great tour! The 2 story looked earlier than the 50's to me, at least the burled wood fireplace mantle looked more Deco to my eye. Through your work I've become more familiar with Australian architecture, every time you tour an early home the first thing my mind says is "where's the arch" LOL
The fifties house exterior looks like a lot of the styles they are building now! Funny how architects and fashion designers seem to bring back styles from DECADES ago. Loved both houses, such a shame to lose them.
Love the under floor finds - I’d love to have a dig around under the floorboards of old homes. The tobacco tins would probably have been left by the builders.

Hi Megan :-) Yep lots of fun exploring these 2 homes. The Queen Anne had a few alterations though but still nice! Thanks for watching again :-)
The picture of the stain glass door with the arch was beautiful ❤️.
LOVE LOVE LOVE The bathroom and shower. Best so far LOVE the sound of the birds . GOODBYE OLD GIRL 😢😢 Thanks for the tour Paul , 👍👍👍🇦🇺

“Greed disguised as progress.”
Yeah could save trees if instead off tearing down they would repair where possible
I really liked the stain glass windows and the old time lights.
fun collection of coins and tins. I would feel like I struck gold if I had found them.
What a nice find ... in more ways than one! Thank you. 👏
I love seen this houses specially art deco ..so many history! I am watching from Spain so thank you for the opportunity to see this!

Oh I absolutely luv this Queen Anne. What a home!!
Nice explore. Loved the vintage footage,
Great explores.... but so sad that these lovely old homes are being replaced with modern soulless blocks.... cool finds with the old coins and tins. 👍
Hello, another great find. Loved both houses, and the great finds at the end - the tins and the coins.
Glad you were able to find a few good treasures to remember this experience before it was newly developed!!
Loved it and great that you saved the old tins and coins.oxoxo

Spectacular homes. The collectables are pretty cool. I'm still in awe over that view! Great find!

Restoring very old houses is expensive . But repairing and restoration is very expensive. I love old houses but sometimes not all can be saved.
a lot as to do with how well they were treated before abandonment, specifically, roof maintenance
Finding the coins and tins was a real plus huh? ☮️ Cool!!
The beautiful tiled floors. The house needs saving just for those! Love your intro music. Spooky!

The second property is spacious and would have housed a family quite comfortably. Thanks Paul for another interesting explore of two unique style houses.
House 1: Mum's back door used to have a lock and key like that one. Omg marble mantel, looks like they bricked the double flue in to separate it. Love everything about the front hall, you called the side entrance. Beautiful ceiling rose and light in the front bedroom. The turret is a nice reading spot in the bedroom, looks like good sunlight would come in there. 1.5mil and they be pulling it down.. don't see any cracks in this one too. I would say laundry not summer kitchen, cause there was no laundry in the house. wow the old shower, had to light it up themselves I see, to get hot water. The queen Anne even had a slate tiled roof. I think they removed the glossy top floor boards and left the original lower boards there. It's a shoehorn. A 43 penny and 46 halfpenny. It's amazing all the stuff that can be lost under the floorboards. You have a 55 sixpence but not a 57 coin.
House 2: Was that a cork wood mantel? That's a nice wall air vent. Mum's was a little fancy but mainly just a grill. The house was big bit had been very modernized.
the treasure! so fun, 👍❤️👍❤️
Your at Glenelg!!!! 😉 New follower here, i love what you do. I can't wait to see if you show any houses that I know of. 👍
Ok that first house was really nice and i loved the stain glass and it's uniqueness but a million dollars..,..no way 🤯

This was one of the best tours yet. I really love that you picked up the coins and tobacco tins. Why just let them be thrown in the dump when you can enjoy them and who knows, they might be worth something one day.
Awesome finds 👍. If that sore eyed building (guessing apartments) is what is taking these beautiful homes then how sad 😓. Looks like a cheap hotel 🤦. Safe travels mate 💗🕊️
Another great tour! The 2 story looked earlier than the 50's to me, at least the burled wood fireplace mantle looked more Deco to my eye. Through your work I've become more familiar with Australian architecture, every time you tour an early home the first thing my mind says is "where's the arch" LOL
burled wood looked to be the best salvage ever. hated that someone put unnecessary nail holes in it.
I’ve never seen anything like the Queen Anne before. Love the turret.
Always interesting finds! Looks like a beautiful location too.
Such a small kitchen in the first place! (Great floor tiles though!)
In the second house - it was weird that there was a toilet halfway up the stairs, as in on the first landing.
The fifties house exterior looks like a lot of the styles they are building now! Funny how architects and fashion designers seem to bring back styles from DECADES ago. Loved both houses, such a shame to lose them.
Loved both houses, but my favourite by far was the 2nd house.
Awesome explore!
Loving the art deco lighting.
