  • Hey explorers! This is now one of my favorites rural explores as this old farmstead must have so many stories and chapters to tell dating back the late 1800`s when it seems it was originally a small 2 room cottage. As the farm prospered and family grew an almost completely new entire home was joined to the cottage probably around the early 1900`s. Lot of different decors and themes in this maze of rooms! Absolutely unique place that seems to have been abandoned about 23 years ago.
    Some sheds out the side shows a hoard of old TV`s and electronics suggesting a repair project.
    The place is not too far gone and could be restored. Hope you all enjoy the tour, cheers for watching :-)

    Hey Paul I think the birds you come across inside the old farm houses are barn swallows. I've read that they make a cup nest from mud pellets in man made structures. They are not our native swallows.
    And I think it is so genuinely polite of you to tell people to leave things as they have found them. Good role model😊

    Did you find a bathroom or did I miss it? 24:16. May it was part of a hallway once upon a time.🤷‍♂️32:49 The fuel tanks could be for cars where they lay down just under the car. It is certainly true that the more space you have the more junk you have. 36:46 Looks like the back of some door locks, the old square ones. Oh I remember now….it was at the very beginning. Told you I was lost!

    G'day,it's not a wool shed, those slopping stumps made of concrete and set up high and the building atop was for bags of grain, hight to ventilate, keep dry and keep mice out, that design stems from the 1890s had one on our farm exactly the same stumps for same purpose, cheers mate, Neil 🤠.

    It is Saturday evening here and I'm on watching another
    really great find here and definitely a unique farmland
    with another empty farmhouse with some bees flying
    around and it really was a unique looking house on the
    inside and definitely a nice farm on the prairies at one time
    and very nice scenery around it outside, as always another
    great abandoned house and this part of Australia is really
    a wonderful area for exploring Thank You and can't wait
    until the next episode take care.🤠👋🇦🇺🏚🏚🇦🇺

    Given the windy and isolated location, I don't blame them for wanting more protected space and enclosing the verandah. It's probably a good bet that the wind is going to wreak more than the usual ammount of damage as time goes by. Another great outback SA [stobie pole noticed] find. Thanks Paul.

    Hey Paul
    Did you forget the Aerogard? I'm sure the gaitors are more important. What a rabbit warren of a house. I think that the time when the house was built they were much more traditional and conservative. We had higher standards back then. Functional but still beautiful. You can see with the different times in our past that sensibility just went out the window. And you did what you felt looked good. Like carpet on the walls. What would our ancestors think. That we were just a pack of retards. And I think they would be right. Give me good old fashioned grace and dignity any time. Thanks Paul. Good video😊😊

  • @vickimarsh2750
    @vickimarsh2750 11 месяцев назад +1

    Hi Paul, thx for yet another explore. Bit of a head scratcher this one. That small room near the galley kitchen...logically if a pantry, it would have been near the original or older kitchen, but opened into the lounge area, with that fireplace with the classic rounded brown brick hearth, so not sure. There were alot of tiles out in that first shed, plus the ones outside with the flower print. Wonder if they were considering another re-vamp, though the bathroom was clearly quite recent. Seems you just celebrated another trip around the sun...congrats 🎉🎂🎁🤗

    @LestWeForget-LestWeForget 11 месяцев назад +1

    Just my opinion, but I think it has lost some character with all of the multi-era stuff going on. It looks solid enough, so if it were mine I would take it back to the original and keep the verandas as they would have been.

Wow love the hallway the ceiling reminds me of the wolf creek manor. This is a large home with a few rooms, also the lounge room was nice mate, nice ceilings nice place cheers mate.

    Love it! I like tin tile ceilings and the older door handle fixtures. That was some really green tile in the bathroom. This was like a time travel you could see with the different additions. In the first shed the sound the roof made, it sounded like the dryer in there was being used! Thank you for going out and finding these places and telling about them. Can't wait until your next explore!🎉👍

    What a wonderfully strange house. I imagine the area in front of the veranda was once beautifully landscaped to complement the pretty trees. Ahhh, what a lovely sight that would have been. And, as a gentle breeze ruffled my hair, I would sing; Our house is a very, very, very fine house, with two cats in the yard… (Our House…Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young) At least, that’s what I ‘see’. 😊❤️

Another reason you're my gave explorer. Some crazy modifications on this ol beauty. I'm playing catch up on your explores, and still wondering how the poor little fox passed in a previos one, i kept looking for rat bait left out or whatnot. ..

    Bonjour d'Occitanie (France)
    à environ 18:35 c'est un peu haut pour un espace de stockage, mais pour de grandes jardinière c'est possible (je ne pense pas que cela soit pratique (profondeur) pour stocker quoi que ce soit. L'auvent qui c'est écroulé signale que peut être c'était devenu l'entrée principale il y a beaucoup de modification.
    La petite pièce à 24:31 devait être avec celle de 25:20. Un garde manger qui donnerait sur la salle à manger je doute. un petit salon ou une petite salle de lecture aussi (pas assez de lumière pour le second) et encore moins un espace couture.
    à 37:33 cette pièce pouvait servir de bureau ou de petit atelier pour l'électronique. Mais s'il y avait un hangar pour stocker la laine il y avait un élevage de mouton donc besoin d'un bureau pour tout ce qui est administratif
