Greed for more $$$ being made off those good old Aussie/Kiwi 1/4 acres.. now can get double townhouses on the lots .. Back to crowded living ..they g, away from in the 1900s when houses were side by side .. No backyard ..no trees.I now live in US and see this happening in the cities more and more ..
We are elderly couple from louisiana USA. We've been enjoying and thumbing up your videos for a couple years now. This was cool cause we finally got to see your face. We are fans. We do enjoy the abandoned homes in the country with artifacts and all better than the ones up for demo. Keep up the good work
Paul, it is my hope that with this channel you are able to save a house you love and turn it into your forever home. You are doing a wonderful service to these homes you feature and preserve if only on video. Thank you.
Really enjoy the pictures of the homes of what they looked liked when they were lived in and furnished. With all the homes getting demolished, their will be nothing but condo's there.
This place was just gorgeous and when you show the real estate pictures with it beautiful and furnished I can't believe it will be torn down it's more than sad.
Good morning Paul,I can't believe that those mini mansions,get demolished ,it really hurts ,they were so beautiful in their time how and why this is happening everywhere,is depressing,to see condos and stupid townhouses poping up in each turn , nothing ever compares to that old world beauty, thank you for saving them in your great work in your videos ,have a great week a big 🤗 from a Frenchy in Australia 🇫🇷🇦🇺
Hi Francoise :-) Yep lots of town houses will replace those first two home with the one already vacant to the left. Progress they say hey.......lol Thanks for watching :-)
I grew up in Richardson Ave Glenelg north, no 16 to be precise. Thankfully the people who bought the house from my family transformed it from a 60's contemporary to a modern work of art. It has been sold again and I went to an open but it was almost unrecognisable but still standing 😊
They were all good homes at one time. I think my favorite one was the first one though. When you post a video no matter what I’m watching I always stop and watch the videos you have loaded. I love your channel and adding the real estate photos help see what they once where. Thank you again for a outstanding video.
All of the homes had their unique design .The last one with some of the art deco features was quite nice .The second had the veiw of the ocean and one could walk over to the ocean .The first one was exceptional..The kitchen and the decor was something that we can only dream of..But one would need a cleaning lady .. Thank you for showing us these three gorgeous houses .
I would have that first house it was beautiful nice floor plan make you sad to see these homes disappear lucky there are people like you recording these beautiful old homes
The first house is STUNNING! The second house was also gorgeous. The love the house had makes me so sad, the kids messages to the house made my eyes well up.
My heart sinks that three very different, beautiful spacious homes are being demolished, replaced by concrete developments. I absolutely love the first home, built in replica Federation style. Thank you Urbex Indigo for sharing footage of the homes, before being lost forever. 🏘
I am from the United States and I am enjoying every explore you do. The three homes you did, on Ayr Ave, Richardson Ave and Watson St, I really liked each one but, I must say that my favorite is the home on Ayr Ave. That addition was the best part of the house, but that kitchen was the best. I am one who loves to cook so yes indeed I would love to have that kitchen. In closing, it saddens me to see many of the beautiful historical homes in your country being destroyed in the name of progress. But, the place where I grew up, Lake Charles, Louisiana, United States, we have an area in the downtown area called Charpentier District. You buy a home from the 1800s to 1900s and you want to remodel, you have to follow very strict guidelines of the preservation society. Again, thank you for sharing and God bless you in your endeavors. Stay safe always.
Wow what a great house and so sad it's going away. It's so well built with all the beautiful tile and the pool and the great kitchen, I could go on but now I've got to look at house #2 thanks for sharing 💜
Unfurlievable....such a amazing home . Really like it was sympathetic to the earlier era / Federation style. Love the entrance with the staircase. Positive sign they kept the grille...really love the house. Sacrilege it was in the process of being torn down. Love the look of home #2!
Being in a situation of struggling to find a rental house to live in and only finding shoebox size units that don’t fit anything, it breaks my soul to see these grand beautiful houses being torn to the ground to be replaced by waste of life clogged up unit blocks, it is an absolute and utter disgrace. This one brought tears to my eyes.
Hello Paul thanks for another great video. I just fell in love with the third house the art deco one I love the celling they were lovely some of the nice one yet and that window seat it would have been a great place to sit and read a book or just watch time go by. Didn't think much of the second house it did nothing for me but the first one was ok but having a pool just out side of your back door would be wonderful. Paul will you have more videos of old country houses that are left to decay. Keep up the great videos love them all Anne
Hi Paul, I was in love with the first home it was my favorite of all the only thing I did not like was the kitchen island, it makes me sick that it will be demolished. The second home looked nice in the photos but I did not like the style. the ocean view was nice. The third one had the art deco ceilings that I like. and other touches. Thank you for this great explorer, Be safe and stay well.
Hi Paul, I really loved the first house as it was an awesome layout and the fake Federation style actually looking good, the previous owners updated it really well, I could have been in seventh heaven living there with pool and spa and granny flat for dear old Dad! The third one has/had lots of charm, but the older the houses the more structural damage appearing with cracks in walls as a result of foundations moving, and because Adelaide is built on a fault line with earthquakes, and we have had tremors on the point 6 or above on the ritcher scale, so no wonder these poor old lovely family history homes have seen their day. Loving your documentaries Paul, and I have been telling everyone to watch your show, even my landlord!! 😀🙏👌
I literally cried watching , knowing that beautiful New ( old style ) home was being demolished . Not so bad bulldozing if homes are completely run down places but this was in perfect condition and looking new … What wastage …. I wonder if the original owners knew it would be bulldozed …. Tragic indeed … I even have a feeling my brother Timothy Kring did all the fancy paintwork / wallpapering in there and many others on the demolition list …Thankyou for at least keeping the memories of these homes alive with your videos Urbex Indigo …ps they also keep me motivated to walk on my treadmill every day 😊👩🎨
Once again, all that can be said is it’s so sad! Progress isn’t always good! The three homes were beautiful, and I loved the photos you included! Thank you!
I liked the glass bricks on the stairs in house 3. All 3 homes were lovely. Again it's sad to see great homes like these with no damage/cracks go under the dozer, to become dog boxes.
The First home, or mansion, definitely had the Custom build feel about it, architect did a good job on the want list. Must have cost a Bomb to finish that one. The "Cape Cod "style is like finding a piece of America in a most unlikely place. Shades of " Mr. Blandings builds his Dream house" (1948) With Cary Grant , the old charmer.What an excellent job you did videoing these. Probably build a Chippy and a petrol station or, something just as bland. Cheers.
Beautiful home, how can someone give this place up. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for providing us with such great videos. I love looking at homes! Be safe in your journeys!
Totally astoundingly WONDERFUL having the pictures as it was when it was inhabited. I love that ! Also having the history of it sales history is incredible too and topping it of you know and point out its architectural styles A+++ 👍🏿 I wish MORE explorers would follow platform.... Research makes these videos so much more enjoyable and complete !
This place as soon as I saw it from the outside it tugged at my heart I could tell it had been a wonderful warm loving home. I would have liked it for my own with a few remodels like the kitchen and bathroom and laundry but the rest down stairs was very nice as is.
I really like the large kitchens in both homes Sad they are taking down such lovely homes love everything about the art deco home it's smaller but nice.👍👍😍❤️🇺🇸
Hi Paul wow wow I loved all three homes they all looked like movie houses so grand I agree with you if I was going to build a house from scratch I would definitely go for the federation old style era for sure. I could definitely see myself cooking in those kitchens love cooking! Loved the huge bathroom in house one and the double shower was huge! ;-) ;-) that was my favourite. All the bedrooms were huge. The walk in robes blew me away so much space. The Art Deco features in house three gorgeous and the real estate photos beautiful. It just blows my mind how anyone could knock these homes down wrong. Thank you soo much again. :-) :-) ❤️
Good morning all three are beautiful the first one love the kitchen and the walk- in closet love it. The second one the same thing but this a shame they are coming down so sad 😞 thank you for sharing all of them have a great day 😊
All three homes were really nice. I do like newer built homes adding Victorian era influence, in a way to create charm and character. It must have cost a fortune to do so!! Cheers for the snoop around!😀👍
Wilkinson Ave. Somerton Park South Aus., a dwelling less than 15 years old has just been flattened. It was one of those horrible boxes made out of particle board & Hebel, & they are probably going to put another one (or 2!) just like it on the block. Beam me up Scotty!!! Only thing keeping me sane: your videos, Paul. Thanks!!!
I wouldn't call the demolition of the neighbouring property of the first house to be any great loss, but the 1st house - Nooo, what a beautifully large home ! 😥😥
I swear, the kitchen/dining/living space in the first house is/was bigger than my whole house!!! It's sad to such nice homes that actually had some nice workmanship going down.
This phenomena is happening here in the States as well as Canada and that is: The movement of wealth into fewer hands as well as the disappearance of what was formerly known as the middle class. Soon the world will resemble Bangladesh India or any number of the poorest nations on Earth on a grand scale. Sorry to be a downer but you know it's true. The class that could have afforded places like these in the nineties is rapidly vanishing. Soon, no one (outside of the insanely wealthy) will be able to afford more than a 2 bedroom condo...and that's if they're some of the few fortunate ones!!
hey Paul great video like the way you research these places pictures of before n after "darn good mate" looks like someone took a liking to the door and window frames,,, the first one some drum that one is must have cost a pretty penny when first bought,,,,, that property would not be outta place in Beverly Hills where i live ,,, similar type house 3 million dollars here,,,,, and by the looks of it - it would fetch mega bucks Paul thanks for sharing this video ,,,,Ed
I for got to add that I went back to my old home place , I am at peace there my parents live and died , I have my childhood home again so much love in this house , and it is going to be past down to family that love ❤️ it.
Putting in the real estate photos of that first one make you wonder how much money there is to made by knocking it down. I’ve got a mate that lives in Glenelg and he usually squeezes it into conversation that he lives in Glenelg 😂 ,,,, great job 👏
Love the kitchen size in this 1st place. Is nice and big. Im always cooking so be prefect. Ours isn't a bad size, I still love nine, Think ours were build in the 80's. We just doing up our main bathroom now cause we have major termite damage
I really liked the first one. I don't like really big houses, but I would move in there. I liked all the details, like the tiles. The blue coloring thur out the house. The rosets. Second house was ok. I liked the glass blocks in the third house, with the flowers in it. I would take any one of this if given to me.
Thanks Urbex Indigo it a shame to see these beautiful homes to be demolished i don't understand this but i guess things change with the time thanks my friend i am from the U.S.A and i always enjoy your channel my friend keep up the great work you do and i can't wait to see your next video and God Bless.
First? Wow. I've been extremely busy with family things. The current pandemic situation has put a real speed bump in many peoples lives, mine is no exception. One of my great grand nieces was diagnosed with covid early this month. She's nine and isn't eligible for vaccine shots yet. Currently it looks like she's getting better fast. I hope that the pandemic has skipped your family and friends. I'm going to binge watch all your videos I missed. Hope you have a great rest of the of the weekend, stay safe and healthy.
Of course, she's getting better fast. Or have you already forgotten that the young recover from 'wu-flu' easily, if they show any symptoms at all. I won't go into it as its (wu-flu) it's been misrepresented ad nauseum. I'll just say, I'm glad your niece is on the mend...as if there were any doubt!
Hi Lynne, yes the last year and a half has been.......well......interesting. I hope your great grand niece will be fine and I am sure she will, things have been made to scare the wits out of anyone with a sniffle and cough these days. Thanks for stopping bye and for watching :-)
That was a beautiful house, yes I would love to have a kitchen that large, but it's only me in my house, I live in a 3 bedroom double wide, I think I have enough room, 😆 lol. Very nice house. I wonder where are the people.
This is occurring throughout Adelaides more prestige suburbs as families downside, properties prices rise, and developers offering unsubstantiated levels of payment for huge properties, ideal for establishment of strata titled units, with little or no thought for heritage values. In my suburb of Dulwich, and surrounding Norwood and Payneham, property sales and demolitions are occurring at a rapid rate. Not good. Another great explore Paul.👍👍🇭🇲
Only into the first home and sad to see the orange monster waiting to take its first bite! But knowing the beautiful flowers at these homes you video, and the majestic trees, and the different fruit trees are gone is also very sad. At one time a gardener loving nurtured them and now they are gone😭😡
3 different homes ... Nice area .. The Federation style for me .. best part was . 'out the back' as we say lol ..Size of the open plan kitchen, dining,family area were great .The lay out of the kitchen ..not so much .. Im not a fan of stove tops or sinks in islands... ruins the counter space area .. But a few updates .. I wouldnt have said No to it lol.. The 40s home had a lot of character, Sad to see those features being tossed away in home nowdays
Not much else to say that hasn’t been said. I agree with you and everyone else that the first home was beautiful! It was a nicely done reproduction of the old style, but with modern, upscale finishes. The other two homes were nice as well, each in its way. The whole thing is a bit depressing, isn’t it? Thanks for documenting these, though.
Great exploring Paul The destruction of these 3 homes is just a crime The first mansion was beautiful you couldn’t of ask for more l am getting the shits with these greedy developers They will be replaced with cheaply built chicken coops that will have the life span of 10 years max Thanks for your efforts
The layout of the kitchen is like my brother inlaws home in Rochester, Michigan, lives in a gated community, also a gorgeous huge home!! His name is Mark Buchanan, owner of Pelle pelle, learher
Hello Paul again well you talk about these high rise units going up in S A well Ballarat is getting there tasty of high rise units, a planed for a seven story unit block is going ahead sad day for Ballarat.
Awsome place mate loved the first one the million dollar Mansion probably a doctor or lawyers place cant believe the first one was being demo for new buildings, when there was nothing wrong with it i didnt see any cracks or signs of decay sad. The other two were good too mate keep exploring see you next time.
I'm glad to see they are salvaging the good stuff. Why not the rosette above the lighting? Crown molding, tiles out of the bathroom? I wonder how much someone or two people get to save as much as they can per hour? They had wood flooring in the garage and what about the stained glass window, the built in the wardrobe cabinets? It just seems a shame to destroy such a lovely home huge hone. I liked him show the realities pictures they are so closs. So more roads going in instead of homes?
I love this house , my style also , I had a two story house and put some old items in loved it , but I gave it to my daughter it is 38 hundred square feet , the steps got to much for me and my back , I move next door to my 2 bed room witch my father built in the early 1940 sort of a craftsman. That is a sad so beautiful.
They must have gotten a fortune for that first one, not to have sold it intact. It was sure quite a lot of home- but with the "dogboxes" right next to it, who would want to live there? I loved the 2nd one. It had the general idea of a Cape Cod, lacking the authenticity. It sure had the 60's-70's feel, though. It felt like home to me. The third one- well, it looked like a church, in some spaghetti western to me, lol, although, I'm quite sure the style has it's appeal to some. Great explore, Paul, thank you for taking the time, and finding the real estate pictures. I do love seeing the homes as they were intended. Stay safe and have a great Halloween, if you do anything, there- SDK
The first home had the most brilliant architect who must be weeping at the destruction of this masterpiece of design - I loved it, the second house not so much but always a shame to see the waste. The third home still had some marvellous art deco remnants to enjoy. As always I love your attention to detail and the back stories (old pics) that give so much context. My only criticism, and its not really that as I love your work, is that I find the camera too quick in places, please slow down on what might be considered 'a boring bit' - I want to see it all without feeling sick.
1st house ABSOLUTELY LOVELY even though it’s NOT MY STYLE I can see the charm plenty of people would find in it oh and awesome that you add pictures of what it was ..SO unfortunate that THIS and the one that is already demolished ended this way NOTHING was wrong from appearances with either TOTAL WASTE of resources to tear these down and MORE to build something in there place
![Seungmin "그렇게, 천천히, 우리(As we are)" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/kAzmhLHePqU/mqdefault.jpg)
The first home was an absolute show place. Gorgeous.
OMG! Makes me sick to my stomach knowing these lovely homes are coming down for no reason other than PROGRESS.😭💋🇺🇸
Greed for more $$$ being made off those good old Aussie/Kiwi 1/4 acres.. now can get double townhouses on the lots .. Back to crowded living ..they g, away from in the 1900s when houses were side by side .. No backyard ..no trees.I now live in US and see this happening in the cities more and more ..

Hi Francoise :-) Yep lots of town houses will replace those first two home with the one already vacant to the left. Progress they say hey.......lol Thanks for watching :-)
Absolutely stunning home! Thank you for showing the real estate photos! We get a great glimpse of how it used to look!
I grew up in Richardson Ave Glenelg north, no 16 to be precise. Thankfully the people who bought the house from my family transformed it from a 60's contemporary to a modern work of art. It has been sold again and I went to an open but it was almost unrecognisable but still standing 😊
Brother you find the best places in S.A Thanks for bringing us along on your adventures 👍🏽
Cheers mate! 🙂Glad you are enjoying!
I love the last house with its bay window and that fancy glasswork.Love the lamps&sconces, Rooms are rather small but this place had charm.
They were all good homes at one time. I think my favorite one was the first one though. When you post a video no matter what I’m watching I always stop and watch the videos you have loaded. I love your channel and adding the real estate photos help see what they once where. Thank you again for a outstanding video.
Awesome! Thank you Brenda I really appreciate your support :-) I do love finding and making these videos for you guys to watch :-)
I like the first one to Brenda Colter. So beautiful
All of the homes had their unique design .The last one with some of the art deco features was quite nice .The second had the veiw of the ocean and one could walk over to the ocean .The first one was exceptional..The kitchen and the decor was something that we can only dream of..But one would need a cleaning lady ..
Thank you for showing us these three gorgeous houses .
Hi Talk Talk :-) Yeah I am not usually too fussed about newer homes but the first one was impressive :-) Cheers for watching :-)
I would have that first house it was beautiful nice floor plan make you sad to see these homes disappear lucky there are people like you recording these beautiful old homes
I’m in love with the first house ❤️ breaks my heart to know that it will be demolished when there is nothing wrong with it.
The first house is STUNNING! The second house was also gorgeous. The love the house had makes me so sad, the kids messages to the house made my eyes well up.
My heart sinks that three very different, beautiful spacious homes are being demolished, replaced by concrete developments. I absolutely love the first home, built in replica Federation style. Thank you Urbex Indigo for sharing footage of the homes, before being lost forever. 🏘
It’s a damn shame all these beautiful and useable homes need to be knocked down because of progress another great video Thanks
I am from the United States and I am enjoying every explore you do. The three homes you did, on Ayr Ave, Richardson Ave and Watson St, I really liked each one but, I must say that my favorite is the home on Ayr Ave. That addition was the best part of the house, but that kitchen was the best. I am one who loves to cook so yes indeed I would love to have that kitchen. In closing, it saddens me to see many of the beautiful historical homes in your country being destroyed in the name of progress. But, the place where I grew up, Lake Charles, Louisiana, United States, we have an area in the downtown area called Charpentier District. You buy a home from the 1800s to 1900s and you want to remodel, you have to follow very strict guidelines of the preservation society. Again, thank you for sharing and God bless you in your endeavors. Stay safe always.
Wow!!! That first house was gorgeous! I'd love to own a place like that. It hurts my heart that all 3 of these are going to be destroyed...
The largest house is so stunning yet so graceful. Yes, I too would give my best effort to tolerate living there. Thank you for the tour. 😊 ❤
Wow what a great house and so sad it's going away. It's so well built with all the beautiful tile and the pool and the great kitchen, I could go on but now I've got to look at house #2 thanks for sharing 💜
I really enjoy the "before" pics included. Sadly, newer doesn't always mean better. So much original beauty laid to waste.
Unfurlievable....such a amazing home . Really like it was sympathetic to the earlier era / Federation style. Love the entrance with the staircase. Positive sign they kept the grille...really love the house. Sacrilege it was in the process of being torn down. Love the look of home #2!

The Australian dream being torn down one house at a time.
A shocking waste indeed Mxjestic, cheers for watching -)
Hello Paul thanks for another great video. I just fell in love with the third house the art deco one I love the celling they were lovely some of the nice one yet and that window seat it would have been a great place to sit and read a book or just watch time go by. Didn't think much of the second house it did nothing for me but the first one was ok but having a pool just out side of your back door would be wonderful. Paul will you have more videos of old country houses that are left to decay. Keep up the great videos love them all Anne

The first house was something else, what a beauty!
Wow, some nice big homes. I'd definitely be able to live in the first one. Wish I had the money to buy such places and keep them around, do them up.
I love your videos.Always watching from Florida.Thanks a bunch....
Wow that pool and hot tub are amazing. Such a shame. Great explore! 🥰🥰🥰
Once again, all that can be said is it’s so sad! Progress isn’t always good! The three homes were beautiful, and I loved the photos you included! Thank you!
I liked the glass bricks on the stairs in house 3.
All 3 homes were lovely. Again it's sad to see great homes like these with no damage/cracks go under the dozer, to become dog boxes.
OH MY GOODNESS that first house!!!! Gorgeous!!!! I love the closets too. Nice use of space.

I really liked that Cape with all the odd rooms and angles and little windows in funny places. Great video.
Good ,well built homes. Thanks for the look!
Beautiful home, how can someone give this place up. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for providing us with such great videos. I love looking at homes! Be safe in your journeys!
Thanks for watching and your support Ethelyn :-)

This place so beautiful on the front and those blooming flowers too
I really like the large kitchens in both homes Sad they are taking down such lovely homes love everything about the art deco home it's smaller but nice.👍👍😍❤️🇺🇸
Thanks for those three tours makes me sad to see them go they all had character and were beauties.
Love that sweet music from the great war.
Wow - wotta place! Thank you for the great explore - awesome!
G'day Paul ... you never cease to interest your followers. I skip your intro to get to the new videos! 😊 Continued thanks, Ken
Really enjoyed all three houses.
Particularly the Cape cod house.
Hi Paul wow wow I loved all three homes they all looked like movie houses so grand I agree with you if I was going to build a house from scratch I would definitely go for the federation old style era for sure.

Hi Megan :-) Yeah I usually am not too fussed about new homes but that first one I could deal with :-) Cheers for watching again Megan :-)
@@urbexindigo5164 definitely the first house was my best favourite! :-) ;-)
Someone was LIVING MIGHTY COMFORTABLY in that 1st house/HOME !
Big and still very different, very sad that they are gone loved the first one.
Geez l look forward to my Sunday viewing.
Great finds these 3, l liked the 3rd one.
Good morning all three are beautiful the first one love the kitchen and the walk- in closet love it. The second one the same thing but this a shame they are coming down so sad 😞 thank you for sharing all of them have a great day 😊
Great explores! The first house was beautiful. To bad it’s getting demolished 😢
All three homes were really nice. I do like newer built homes adding Victorian era influence, in a way to create charm and character. It must have cost a fortune to do so!! Cheers for the snoop around!😀👍

Only thing keeping me sane: your videos, Paul. Thanks!!!
I absolutely loved this house!! I have a large kitchen also and you for sure get a good workout.
I wouldn't call the demolition of the neighbouring property of the first house to be any great loss, but the 1st house - Nooo, what a beautifully large home ! 😥😥
Yeah I agree Tim, I was hoping the neighbor was not a nice old Tudor or Bungalow from the 30`s but it was not :-) Cheers for watching mate :-)
I swear, the kitchen/dining/living space in the first house is/was bigger than my whole house!!!
It's sad to such nice homes that actually had some nice workmanship going down.
This phenomena is happening here in the States as well as Canada and that is: The movement of wealth into fewer hands as well as the disappearance of what was formerly known as the middle class.

The class that could have afforded places like these in the nineties is rapidly vanishing. Soon, no one (outside of the insanely wealthy) will be able to afford more than a 2 bedroom condo...and that's if they're some of the few fortunate ones!!
Hi Orion Warren, yep I think your right about the elimination of the middle class and where our countries are headed. Cheers for watching :-)
Whole heartedly agree with you
Hi! 👋 ! I’m new to this channel. It is so sad that this beauty is being torn down. Thanks for sharing!
hey Paul great video
like the way you research these places
pictures of before n after "darn good mate"
looks like someone took a liking to the door and window frames,,, the first one some drum that one is must have cost a pretty penny when first bought,,,,,
that property would not be outta place in Beverly Hills where i live ,,, similar type house 3 million dollars here,,,,,
and by the looks of it - it would fetch mega bucks
Paul thanks for sharing this video ,,,,Ed
I for got to add that I went back to my old home place , I am at peace there my parents live and died , I have my childhood home again so much love in this house , and it is going to be past down to family that love ❤️ it.
Putting in the real estate photos of that first one make you wonder how much money there is to made by knocking it down. I’ve got a mate that lives in Glenelg and he usually squeezes it into conversation that he lives in Glenelg 😂 ,,,, great job 👏
Haha yes the dropping of names and venues is an important social power play for some mate haha :-)
Love the kitchen size in this 1st place. Is nice and big. Im always cooking so be prefect. Ours isn't a bad size, I still love nine, Think ours were build in the 80's.
We just doing up our main bathroom now cause we have major termite damage
Would love an Walk in robe. That place is so beauiful
That first place was indeed quite the home twistednerd23 :-) Cheers for watching
I really liked the first one. I don't like really big houses, but I would move in there. I liked all the details, like the tiles. The blue coloring thur out the house. The rosets. Second house was ok. I liked the glass blocks in the third house, with the flowers in it. I would take any one of this if given to me.
Nice homes. What a shame. Absolutely love the first house.
beautiful art deco
Witam Serdecznie piękne domy szkoda tych domków Pozdrawiam Serdecznie i Dziękuję za eksploracje bardzo piękną ♥️♥️♥️♥️💐💐💐💐👍👍👍👍👍
Wow the first one was so big would have been beautiful in its day 🐈 Melbourne Australia
Thanks Urbex Indigo it a shame to see these beautiful homes to be demolished i don't understand this but i guess things change with the time thanks my friend i am from the U.S.A and i always enjoy your channel my friend keep up the great work you do and i can't wait to see your next video and God Bless.
First? Wow. I've been extremely busy with family things. The current pandemic situation has put a real speed bump in many peoples lives, mine is no exception. One of my great grand nieces was diagnosed with covid early this month. She's nine and isn't eligible for vaccine shots yet. Currently it looks like she's getting better fast. I hope that the pandemic has skipped your family and friends. I'm going to binge watch all your videos I missed. Hope you have a great rest of the of the weekend, stay safe and healthy.
Of course, she's getting better fast. Or have you already forgotten that the young recover from 'wu-flu' easily, if they show any symptoms at all. I won't go into it as its (wu-flu) it's been misrepresented ad nauseum. I'll just say, I'm glad your niece is on the mend...as if there were any doubt!
Hi Lynne, yes the last year and a half has been.......well......interesting. I hope your great grand niece will be fine and I am sure she will, things have been made to scare the wits out of anyone with a sniffle and cough these days. Thanks for stopping bye and for watching :-)
Why are these beautiful homes in this condition, were they just abandoned.
I like how the bathrooms over there the floors are all one floor into the shower
That was a beautiful house, yes I would love to have a kitchen that large, but it's only me in my house, I live in a 3 bedroom double wide, I think I have enough room, 😆 lol. Very nice house. I wonder where are the people.
This is occurring throughout Adelaides more prestige suburbs as families downside, properties prices rise, and developers offering unsubstantiated levels of payment for huge properties, ideal for establishment of strata titled units, with little or no thought for heritage values. In my suburb of Dulwich, and surrounding Norwood and Payneham, property sales and demolitions are occurring at a rapid rate. Not good. Another great explore Paul.👍👍🇭🇲
I just don't understand why they tear down such a beautiful house. To put up something that will never be as beautiful as this house
Only into the first home and sad to see the orange monster waiting to take its first bite! But knowing the beautiful flowers at these homes you video, and the majestic trees, and the different fruit trees are gone is also very sad. At one time a gardener loving nurtured them and now they are gone😭😡
3 different homes ... Nice area .. The Federation style for me .. best part was . 'out the back' as we say lol ..Size of the open plan kitchen, dining,family area were great .The lay out of the kitchen ..not so much .. Im not a fan of stove tops or sinks in islands... ruins the counter space area .. But a few updates .. I wouldnt have said No to it lol.. The 40s home had a lot of character, Sad to see those features being tossed away in home nowdays
Glad you enjoyed it Lyn, yep the first one for me too! Although the third in its prime would have been quite the home too! Cheers for watching :-)
Not much else to say that hasn’t been said. I agree with you and everyone else that the first home was beautiful! It was a nicely done reproduction of the old style, but with modern, upscale finishes. The other two homes were nice as well, each in its way. The whole thing is a bit depressing, isn’t it? Thanks for documenting these, though.
Great exploring Paul The destruction of these 3 homes is just a crime The first mansion was beautiful you couldn’t of ask for more l am getting the shits with these greedy developers They will be replaced with cheaply built chicken coops that will have the life span of 10 years max Thanks for your efforts
The layout of the kitchen is like my brother inlaws home in Rochester, Michigan, lives in a gated community, also a gorgeous huge home!!
His name is Mark Buchanan, owner of Pelle pelle, learher
That is awesome Michele :-) Thanks for watching :-)
Incroyable de démolir une maison aussi luxueuse 🙉
Hello Paul again well you talk about these high rise units going up in S A well Ballarat is getting there tasty of high rise units, a planed for a seven story unit block is going ahead sad day for Ballarat.
Hi Paul, what a real shame such a beautiful home is being pulled down.
Awsome place mate loved the first one the million dollar Mansion probably a doctor or lawyers place cant believe the first one was being demo for new buildings, when there was nothing wrong with it i didnt see any cracks or signs of decay sad. The other two were good too mate keep exploring see you next time.
I'm glad to see they are salvaging the good stuff. Why not the rosette above the lighting? Crown molding, tiles out of the bathroom? I wonder how much someone or two people get to save as much as they can per hour? They had wood flooring in the garage and what about the stained glass window, the built in the wardrobe cabinets? It just seems a shame to destroy such a lovely home huge hone. I liked him show the realities pictures they are so closs. So more roads going in instead of homes?
Developers are at it again
I love this house , my style also , I had a two story house and put some old items in loved it , but I gave it to my daughter it is 38 hundred square feet , the steps got to much for me and my back , I move next door to my 2 bed room witch my father built in the early 1940 sort of a craftsman. That is a sad so beautiful.
There are still a lot of things to save
Lovely home #1. I wonder about the history of the house. How did it end up having such an end?
They must have gotten a fortune for that first one, not to have sold it intact. It was sure quite a lot of home- but with the "dogboxes" right next to it, who would want to live there? I loved the 2nd one. It had the general idea of a Cape Cod, lacking the authenticity. It sure had the 60's-70's feel, though. It felt like home to me. The third one- well, it looked like a church, in some spaghetti western to me, lol, although, I'm quite sure the style has it's appeal to some. Great explore, Paul, thank you for taking the time, and finding the real estate pictures. I do love seeing the homes as they were intended. Stay safe and have a great Halloween, if you do anything, there- SDK
The first home had the most brilliant architect who must be weeping at the destruction of this masterpiece of design - I loved it, the second house not so much but always a shame to see the waste. The third home still had some marvellous art deco remnants to enjoy. As always I love your attention to detail and the back stories (old pics) that give so much context. My only criticism, and its not really that as I love your work, is that I find the camera too quick in places, please slow down on what might be considered 'a boring bit' - I want to see it all without feeling sick.
1st house ABSOLUTELY LOVELY even though it’s NOT MY STYLE I can see the charm plenty of people would find in it oh and awesome that you add pictures of what it was ..SO unfortunate that THIS and the one that is already demolished ended this way NOTHING was wrong from appearances with either TOTAL WASTE of resources to tear these down and MORE to build something in there place
Maravilhosa cada e esquecida que dó!
The step up to the master closet is most likely due to the headroom coming up the stairs
