- Hey house lovers and explorers!
This video we go on an epic 3 house explore all in a row! Yep these homes are classic Aussie Adelaide homes that are great examples of the early 20`s post war Bungalows and a classic large 50`s home. 2 of the homes have even got granny flats!
The bungalows are the more elaborate ones built at the time with many throws back to federation and arts and crafts features. One had been have the top roof cavity totally transformed in to a second level when it seems the developers threw the big bucks at the owners to get them to sell.
Like many of my explores these homes are doomed and will be demolished for big condo style units.
Sit back and enjoy the snoop around these classic old homes with me!
Cheers for watching , hope you all enjoy :-)
That’s all I ever wanted was a Bungalow like this last home!
Can you picture a husband who provided a home like this for his wife!
How elegant it was at its best , how proud I would have been with my husband.
This was a nice place at one time. How sad that time changes and age creeps up on us:(
Wow! Such huge rooms. I love them all.Those broad porches are magnificent! Thanks again!
Glad you enjoyed Loretta :-) Thanks for watching
In the Us and UK if there is a way in without breaking a door or a window it's all good. If some one else did the breaking in you always have footage showing you did not do it. Love your explores and very sad they tear these beautiful homes down for ugly monstrosities.
Love your intro 🎶 music
Hi NY Girl :-) Glad you like, thanks for watching :-)
Beautiful TRAGEDY in motion !!!
Nice job Paul! The second house I'm betting an Italian family lived there judging by the religious icons (those were catholic), lemon tree in the back yard and I spotted a small kitchen area in the last shed you went into where generally most of the cooking would be done to keep the main inside kitchen clean and presentable for visitors.
LOL I was thinking the same thing! I bet those old bottles were for making Limoncello with that beautiful lemon tree. I hope someone saves the tree, it would be a shame to destroy that.
Huh, reading the comments, I guess I'm the only one that loved the remodel. I thought it was interesting and unique and quite beautiful. I really liked the wood ceilings.
Loved the home and remodeling and windows....not too thrilled with the downstairs bathroom s.
@@bethshadid2087 Yeah, they were a little weird but would have been good if they, you know, completed them. Put in the shower/tub, not just a strange large space with a commode/sink. I was wondering if they were just uncompleted like the upstairs.

Hi, Paul- LOVED the 3rd home- 2nd one you were in. Such a waste to take it down!!!!! The other 2? That 2nd one? I just hope they salvage the original parts, and I am more sad about the landscaping, than anything else, and the 1st one, as well. The funniest thing that went through my mind in this video? "We get a 2 for 1 here- Paul has upset both the neighborhood dogs AND the neighborhood birds in THIS video, lolololol" Great finds!!!! Thanks.-SDK
Love last two bungalows. What a waste though. My husband is disabled and having a bungalow this size would be our dream proprty, especially here in the UK. Bungalows are getting so rare over here especially nes like these. It's nice to see the original fixtures and fittings in situ. Please keep up the hard and beautiful work. Thank you.
Witam Serdecznie i Dziękuję za eksploracje bardzo ładna . Dużo mebli urządzeń rzeczy Pozdrawiam Serdecznie ♥️♥️♥️💐💐💐🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱👍👍👍👍👍
I can't understand why anyone would paint the (3rd) house in those revolting colours. Thanks for another great episode. 👍😀
Maybe it resembled a rainbow when all the natural light came in. I couldn't handle all those colors.
Always look forward to Sunday mornings new video. You do a great job at documenting these beautiful homes. Thank you for saving the memories 👍
Hi Rasco! :-) Thanks for your kind support and for watching, glad you enjoy the videos! :-)
I just love that cheesy kitchen with the wood ceiling and fake gray marble everything. Hey, I'm not always classy.
The arts and craft house I liked but it had been changed and the third house ,,that kitchen was ugly and all the wood paneling so ugly ...thanks for being a "naughty boy"! Glad to see the third house but disappointed with what they had done to it.
A great find ,all three houses .such beautiful porches .ahhh back in the day they new their stuff ..ceilings ,light fixtures ,stained glass . wonderful..
Hi Talk Talk :-) Yeah the last one was a project in the making it seems but the lack on natural light in there did not help. Thanks for watching :-)
I'm am big fan of your RUclips channel watching your videos and I'm am FROM ROY UTAH USA subscribers all time
Hi Rashelle :-) Thanks for the kind support and for watching! :-)
Again, it’s so sad to see these homes lost, but it’s good that you have them on video! I chuckle when you can get into a home and I hear the excitement in your voice when you say,” Oh you beauty!” And they are that! Thank you!
I love your explores. You are always very thorough and informative. Thank you for showing us these places. 👍
Love the houses! What a waste of lemons!!! 😂🤣😂
Glad you decided on the window. 😉
That kitchen was just strange, oddly dark, but all the leaded glass was beautiful, not a fan of the ceilings & way too many dark colors. Too bad they never finished the upstairs.
Gotta wonder what people are thinking when they remodel. 🤷
3rd bungalow ( originally 2nd), cedar ceilings, loft not original I think because of positioning of stairwell - crazy placement. Room for eating off kitchen called the breakfast room, always small and sunny. Most of the bungalows as far as I can see had ducted heating/cooling. Some still had stand alone air con in diff. rooms. Breaks my heart that the council approved demolition, but we all know $$$$$$ speak louder than morals and words.😥
Loving thr roses on the ceilings.
Bakelite is pronounced: bay kuh lite. Porch stunning tile work.
My thoughts are for 2nd house, they were staunch Catholics and they originated from either Italy or Greece, all their pictures being representative of their belief system. Parquetry floors, the European (France is where it began) loved them. The hardware is stunning.
I don't understand why you grey out wheelybins unless they have addresses on them? The old bottles in garage, further cements my thoughts on Italians bottling Lemoncello from their lemon tree. Plus the insulated ducting, not too poor.
The Parlour is known as the parlour, not parlour room because in essence anything with 4 walls is a room.
I love the last kitchen with shutters on the windows, with shutters up and lights on magnifico' just add colour. Loving all the the lead light windows Paul, I hope they remove them before demo😥, you are one lucky dude!😊
Whew , marathon day catching up,, top work as always mate.Looking forward to October.👏
That third/second house was someone's idea of a dream home in the making, not mine. The most fugly-ugly, botched attempt at "renovation" I've seen yet. The wood ceilings reminded me of some old hippie pads back in the 60's. It was missing the beaded curtain doorways and incense burners on the shelves. (Memories stuck together like plaids, paisleys, long skirts and bells, all infused with the mingled smells of incense and weed.) The joy's of a misspent youth. ; - )
The sun is as white ther has here in ca.bruning
Really didn’t like the kitchen of the last home you showed. Too dark and dreary for my taste. Loved the different ceiling fixtures in all the homes. Thanks for this explore😁
Wonder what kind of wood the floors and ceiling were? Reminds me of Koa, not quite red enough for sapele. What amazing and very large houses!
Hello Paul homes 1 and 2 are nice but beautiful back in the day home 3 different I don’t like all of that wood and dark colors. Thank you for sharing have a great week 😊
The first home felt pure 50s with the period built ins. The second was heavily updated, I suspect the small room directly off the kitchen may have been a cooks room, but was repurposed as a breakfast room, or morning room past the time of servants. The third, well, there's no accounting for taste, but had all the ear marks of a craftsman style gone awry.
they really chucked the money at it. Three more up the spout, Cheers, thanks for the look in.
love the lead light! hate everything else they did with the wood and shiney cupboards ick 😖 and should have done something to cover the underneath of the stairs :/ it's exposed and yuck.
Here in the Midwest USA we call those type of swinging doors, batwing doors.
The last one you managed to get in to it must have taken a forest to build it all ceilings etc. Well preserved for ever now but still a shame only one with termites in the out building. Great stuff take care and don't get caught other wise what will we all do. Thank you for doing it though.👍👍🥂.
Love 3d fish supper cool
these old houses always have a lemon 🍋 tree lol 😆 my grandparents had one and my great grandmother had one! was the popular thing to plant back in the day!
Qué hermoso 😍🤩de los años 50 🏡🏚🌝🙋♀️💯
OMG Absolutely Beautiful!!! Love the bathroom, bay window and all the room,very spacious!! The sandstone and the front veranda is amazing!!! Keep finding the empty homes, I'll keep watching, love your work!!!😃 stay safe and God Bless
JACKPOT... Great find 👏 these 3 house's stunning.
Love the newer kitchen in the 2nd house.
Stunning windows, & wood work.
I agree with the cupboard "ugly " someone spent $$$. Love the led light glass.
Such a waste of space in the bathrooms.
The space near the stairs(front entrance) looks a mess, all the chopping & changing of walls & gaps.😲.
Sadly l think the 2nd house has been "butchered ".
But very interesting 🤔
The 3rd house, it looks to be just about move in ready.
Gorgeous .
Was that the
Original Kitchen in the Shed?
And some of the old kitchen appliances in the shed,
ahhh memories .
Those ceilings ❤❤❤
The second small room off the kitchen might have been the breakfast room.
Love these homes what a waste to tear down just wonder about who lived here yrs ago
I will do some looking in the old directories and do a follow up :-)
The sec house person may have been in wheel chair and didn't need bath tub lol
it really nice house and some people like walk showers as will it really. Sweet place to bad pull down
Always a great adventure! Love it! Great job 🥰🥰🥰
Glad you enjoyed it Robin :-) Thanks again for watching :-)
the grey kitchen is wonderful. all the leaded glass is amazing .to demolish this last home is such a shame.
HI PAUL THE HOLE YOU WENT THROUGH AND THE WHITE APPLIANCE YOU MOVED OUT OF THE WAY IS CALLED A DISHWASHER NICE HOUSE
your videos are great and enjoyable , however the music and theme 'don't' match '' is ''creepy'' are more appropriate music would be ''of vintage music, clarinet, 1930's -1940, songs or music it would be ''perfect for the style of videos of period houses. 🗝
Your not the first to point that out Jenny :-) A lot of others seem to like it also. I just wanted something different :-)
This is gorgeous❣😊
Gday just wondering if this is any referece to second house with name plaque NORA CREINE, - Nora Creina Bay recalls the wreck of the brigantine Nora Creina, 172 tonnes in December 1858. She belonged to Sutherland and Bayley, of Melbourne, and was commanded by Captain Lowe. The vessel struck an unchartered rock, and sank thirty-five minutes later. All hands were rowed safely to Robe , South Australia also Nora Creina is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located on the state’s south-east coast overlooking the body of water known in Australia as the Southern Ocean and by international authorities as the Great Australian Bight. It is about 99 kilometres (62 miles) to the north-west of the city of Mount Gambier and about 290 kilometres (180 miles) south-east of the state capital of Adelaide.
Nora Creina was originally the name given to a shack site. Its boundaries were established in 1997 and 1999 respectively for the portions within the Wattle Range Council and the District Council of Robe and include both the Nora Creina Shack Site and Little Dip Shack Area. The locality was given “the long established name” which is presumably derived from Nora Creina Bay which is located within the locality and which was named after the ship wreck Nora Creina
Great research Dave and Brenda :-) I forgot all about the name on that house! :-) Could have something to do with that for sure. Cheers for watching
The craftsmanship that went into building these homes make me so sad to know they will be torn down.😭💋🇺🇸
Luv this kitchen.Ty for sharing
let me guess... big block of units going in here too? what a pity
Shoes! Not your size huh? Tell me your shoe size and I’ll send you a pair of red stilettos. 😮😅😂 As always, a great adventure. Thanks. ❤
Lol :-)
I'm glad to see your persistence paid off, UI. Some of those bungalows had enough roof space in the gable for an upstairs area but I think you'd have had to run the air conditioning 24/7 to make them liveable in summer. And despite the awful renovations that house still had the original glazed brick fireplace.
I hope you stuffed a couple of those lemons in your pockets Paul. 3 great explores!
Haha Kylie I forgot to take some! :-) needs some baggy pants to smuggle those out haha
@@urbexindigo5164 haha ... do I predict an Urbex Indigo special tactical foraging stealth outfit forming ?
I loved the first to homes but the last one i did not like it reminded me of a funeral home it looked creepy in away
Just wanted to add: All of these homes give the impression of 'refined' living. Even all of the apts or 'granny flats'. It just seems that in AU as well as here in the USA, people are being crammed into 'soulless' ant farms. Or rat warrens. Jeez, Slumdog Millionaire here we come! smh
Yep! No front yard and no back yard is the aim of the urban master plan! What a sad city it will be in 30 years........
Yep,i totally agree with you!
Aww, the fish on the walls, in that bathroom, are a cute touch!
Haha yes I noticed that afterwards Kim, thanks for watching :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 this is one of my favorite parts of the week. ☺️
I hope they keep the windows, doors and wood floors!🥺😢
The little room was probably another bedroom.
I loved the second home. Would love to have that one!! Also liked all of the stained glass and paneled ceiling of the third one. Just on the ceiling though. The rest of the third one was a mess! Great video!!!
Wow, I just watched this video and instantly recognised where it is. I live on the same road and always wondered what were inside these homes that were bulldozed. Thank you 😊
Your welcome Treena! :-) I really enjoyed going through these ones for a look. Cheers for watching 🙂
#3 was my favorite but #2 was amazing too. What was that big bush with the orange flowers at #1?
Not sure Mari sorry :-)
I definitely liked the second home the best.
Unexpected unique interiors with all three of the homes you explored thanks Paul. The first home with the white rendered facade is an Art Deco, almost like the Dutch Gable style that were built between 1934-1945. I love the stain glass windows in the Bungalow home, but definitely not the brown coloured kitchen cupboards and bedroom robe. Such a sad waste of unique style homes, being replaced by modern developments.
Brass fixtures. All light fixtures
love the drapes in dining and living room
a mix of great interest in all the details and great sadness at the known destruction - the lemon tree was so beautiful, an added extra - many thanks for your diligent work
So much utter waste. sigh....
that screen door is like a lace doily.
I loved the third one! I hope it's not being demolished.
Love the bungalows. They don't build them like this anymore. The shoes not your colour Michael.
Haha Christine I think you have me confused with Mike from Mkubler5 :-) Not the first time we have been mixed up haha. Paul here :-) Cheers for watching.
@@urbexindigo5164 so sorry for the mixup, just another blonde day,Christine.
IDK why I'm so excited to see a UI vid...I just am!
Haha Orion Warren I am glad you are, hope you enjoy this one too! Cheers for watching :-)
I love them all everything, you made me laugh about the black shoe and brown shoelace hehe. Beautiful facades and the gardens nice spa bath!, the original bathroom very classic. I agree not a fan of the colour for a cupboard in the second house the one where you climbed in the window mm naughty boy! Hehe. I would have done the same thing They sure did go bonkas on the wood paneling doing my head in lol. I like the upstairs part. Thank you soo much again:-) :-)
Hi Megan! :-) Thanks for watching, yeah my fav was the one with the Spa! Such a waste to knock these ones down!
@@urbexindigo5164 totally agree you ask yourself why? these homes need to be preserved rotten developers
Paul hows things ? it crosses my mind ,,, i follow you're posts and see places dating from late1800s to 1950s60s,,,, ok a few cracks in the walls etc,,,,, are this new apartments that are to replace these fine classic design bungalows gonna last the pace of time?/
ok first place wouldn't look out of place in Beverly Hills where i now live,,,, and that rasta/blaster yeah man,,, listen to soom Bob Marley reggie smoke a few Jamaican Woodbines" eh eh

ok Paul see you next video ,,, Edwin & Lucy
No fireplace 🤔
Really loved the third house, the colors and the cool kitchen, Thanks for squeezing through the window. I would have found that house with the somber colors, (the dark red glass!), a very calming environment, however I do agree with you about the overuse of wood paneling. Thanks for this longer video. I hope you keep exploring for a long time to come as your videos are so interesting and the presentation is so different. Please some old country houses. I wish you would let us really see you so we can put a face with the voice. Thanks again.
Naughty naughty
Sacrilege destroying these houses, there is another one you should see at 1 Bruswick, Walkerville, gentleman bungalow.
.
Absolutely love your videos Urbex lndigo your my favorite as always
Glad you enjoyed again Stephanie, thanks for the support and watching :-)
Your very welcome 🤗 thank you
When I see these gorgeous older homes with so much character and know it's going to be destroyed, it makes me sad. Then I think of a song by Gino Vanelli, who is a Canadian singer. The song is from the 70's and is called " Powerful People". It goes "Look at the powerful people stealing the sun from the day. Wish I could just just go and shout it!" etc. It's about the rich stealing the goodness from the average to the poor people and all this destruction is a prime example!
Again, such a shame these houses will be replaced by soulless concrete boxes. I didn't particularly like the decor of the third one...wwaayy too dark....so much potential and space.
Second home was my favourite paul although out the back was very red/brick colour. Spite they wont be there much longer. Loved the lemon tree, i like lemon in my water and on my fish so that's handy just nip into my neighbours garden for a couple lol. Good explores keep them coming. Xx
Ok...the third home (gentleman's home) all the wood paneling on the ceiling now makes sense. Nice home except the weird bathrooms. Loved all the windows tho 💗
Always interesting how people decorate their homes... the 2nd house that you looked at 3rd,very sweet!! Even though very dark colors, and wood still very beautiful!! Thanks so much for not giving up on getting inside it!! Lots of beauty in all of them!!!😁
3rd (2nd) house is definitely a bachelors place. All that wooden and dark look is a guy thinking he’s picking a cool colour.
Just to give my two cents half way thru (before I forget) the second house you got into.....bet the front was formal living room the middle was the formal dining and the small dining room could've been a breakfast nook.
Where is this❣
Hi Paul, My favourite was house #3 gorgeous, house #2 too much wood and the colour decor, not me, House #1 was good as well as a large family home. Thank you Paul for the tour :)
That was a dishwasher in the kitchen cut out area. Wasn't a front loading washing machine, or a top loading washing machine. Could only be a dishwasher. Bit odd.
It's a shame to think that all these beautiful old style houses will be gone one day the way the world is moving forward packing people tightly 2gether as space in the city's gets less & less & more expensive to live there. 😮
All three beautiful homes, except for those hideous fake marble cabinets and wood paneling ceilings. I have a question. From all of your videos, I gather there is a thriving business in salvage from these old homes. I see where they always get all of the wood floors, doors, hardware, and stained glass. Do they also salvage all of the sandstone and bluestone blocks, and bricks as well? It seems to me there would be a good market for them. Here in the USA there is a good market for salvage brick. If nothing else they would make nice stones for walkways and garden walls, and for people who would like their homes to actually look good. Thanks for another great video!!
Wow . Awesome video . I think though house two was my fave , however I did like some of the original elements from the first and last house . I would of loved to live in house two . The last two places had to of belonged to wealthy people . And history is lost to the bulldozer. Makes me so angry and I imagine you as well .
I know you don’t take things from the sites you explore, however could those lemons or any citrus growing where you are exploring be an exception ? Thank you for sharing.
I love all the windows in the one you went in the windows, strange all the wood on ceiling’s, but with all the natural light that would come through , the dark glass I think 🤔 it would have been outstanding, the upstairs could have been great if they had finished it . Makes me wonder what Happened. Love your videos , keep up the good work to preserve history of these old homes , you are right the new homes to me are crap 💩. With have been 😊
I belong to some World War 2 forums and sometimes see Australian soldiers in old black and white photos from the 1940’s. I look in their young faces and wonder how many of them knew these homes intimately in their lives. When these homes were in their prime or even brand new.
Well that was a remodel fail if every. What I would give to have those leaded glass windows in my home, and the original doors are fabulous. They kind of lost site of the way the place should have been. OH well its easy to condemn from my seat right here LOL.
Sunday again love the video but what a shame about the houses can’t beat progress I suppose but geez I wish we could 😊🇦🇺
Abandoned folding Z bed frame, foam mattress with a classic 70's floral patterned cover, in a bin bag
Hermosas casas que podrían ser recuperadas una lástima que sean para demoler . Espero rescaten las piezas de iluminación antiguas y los vidrios emplomados . Excelente exploración .saludos de un argentino desde España
I loved the explores as usual. All the homes were way bigger than expected. I loved the lemon tree in the back! Thank you again for taking us along 3 more never to be seen again homes.
I'm sad when the wild life have to leave because these homes are getting knocked down. Great video as always Paul. X
That third house was ugly. I would take the first two houses. Second one I liked. You were not a bad boy, unless you smashed a window in or damaged the house some how. Also how do you know that the shoes weren't your size, if you didn't try them on . Haha
😂
First property with added granny flat, lots of built in wardrobes with vanity units.
Apart from the hideous decor of bungalow number 2 , it may have been lived in by a person in a wheelchair, because the bathrooms are so open and large!
Hi Paul! I enjoy all of your videos. Keep up the good work. Take care
The first house… it looked like they lowered the ceilings. That would explain the hisious bloc ceilings. It may have been done to lower the heating bills or so they could put a central system up there
