Love the sound of the rain on the roof. Memories of childhood. Once the flooring is taken out it changes the feel of the place. The chest freezer is a luxury I think. That old Ute! Fantastic! Even the hood ornament still in tact. Would love to see it brought back to life too. Again, thanks, Paul. I get lost in wondering what it was like in its prime.
Wow, another cool old farm house! Love the 3 stoves! Can almost hear the bustle in the kitchen, as the food was being prepared for the large crew of farmhands! Love that old Austin! I bet that was some sort of equipment used on the farm. An old truck is always a treasure, and can have many uses! Thanks Indigo!
The a frame on the old austin was used by grader operators to tow the vehicle behind the grader on remote gravel roads. They could grade for two hours, towing the vehicle, unhitch the vehicle then do 4 more passes grading the road. By then it's home time and the vehicle is waiting for them at the end of the last run
I loved hearing all the different birds in the background, especially the baby birds towards the end. This home was not a disappointment. Great video. Thank you😀
Hi Paul! There seemed to be more dried up ponds, along with the well to circumvent when walking in the long grass. All the oranges fallen on the ground under the tree that had been planted so handily next to the house! I bet the people that lived there enjoyed the bounty of fresh o.j. often😊. I liked the up close shot of the Austin’s dash with the keys. Thanks for capturing this home on video👍🏻😊
Urbex Indigo thanks my friend for sharing this video with me about Old farm house with vintage Austin Ute/3 old stoves/Out buildings and some stuff now in decay it was a really good find my friend i am from the U.S.A and i will always show support to your channel and God Bless and thanks .
An old farmhouse looking worse for wear, left to decay. That old Austin, hopefully someone can bring back from the dead. Still in just ok shape, I guess, for its age. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, MM :)
Needs an enthusiastic week of clearing out the junk & sweeping every bit of crap out, loading into a skip, cut that grass, & then take a look at what you have ! I could see myself tackling this in my youth - been there done that to a several places over my 80+ years !!! Could be a sweet little home once the building issues were fixed - roof, ceilings, new floors, bathroom/s (did not see any toilet !), kitchen etc. The only thing I did not like was that electric tower so close to the house ! Hope somebody takes this on tho, I hate to see an oportunity go to waste !
The Austins just sitting there patiently for someone to restore her 😢 The ruins just amaze me how they're still standing today. Another great explore though!👍
That chest freezer is a Crosley. It was an American company that made all kinds of stuff, from inexpensive "every man" radios(in the days when radios were a luxury item), to home appliances, and even a line of automobiles. That's a cool Austin, I like the old Australian Utilities, we never had those here in the USA other than the Chevy El Camino and Ford Ranchero. The ones you had there were much more curvy, I like them. Another great explore, thanks so much for sharing!!
Here in the US the farmers put those tow bars on their trucks or cars or Jeep or something and they tow the car with the tractor to the field and then they drive the car back and forth to wherever their plowing or baling hay or whatever. Pretty cool to see the soul Farm it's a shame it is no longer lived in.
As always ... thanks, Paul. My money is on a circa 1955 Austin A55. The odometer is reading in miles so in todays talk approx. 124000 kms. When I was a kid our family car was a 1949 Austin A40 and the one I bought in 2014 was a 1950 A40 ... aah the memories.
@@Islandwaterjet... when the key was turned to 'ON' that light glowed to show there was battery power to start the vehicle. There was a separate knob to engage/pull to start the engine. Someone else might explain better than I have. 😁
Theres something about eain on a sheet iron roof . Our barn has a metal roof and my husband would go up into the loft and take a nap when it rained.He built a staircase andflooring ,areal nice club house for grandsons and him of course😄👍❤️🇺🇸
Loved the old Austin Ute, I can picture it new, what a sight , shame it is left there to rot . Thanks for another great video Paul, all the best from Great Yarmouth Norfolk England UK . xxx
Perfect chill after a big day! Love getting to look through everything with you 🙂❤️ 3 stoves in the kitchen and only that tiny sink...bless the cook and bottle washer!
What an awesome find mate those old stoves in that decay were the highlight mate. That huge white oven you can make pancakes and pressed bread yummo ham and cheese on that one. The old his masters voice would of been transistor one mate, and the old rusted Freezer is a Crosley probably run by kerosene. how cool an old Austin that was probably the old engine to that old girl mate. Another awesome explore cheers Paul.
These old abandoned farmhouses out in the rural areas like this are always filled with a lot of history from another era and are surrounded by the most beautiful scenery and countryside especially here in this part of Australia and this old farmhouse is a fantastic place to explore Thanks for another great find with this place Thank You.🇦🇺👋🤠👋 🇦🇺
Neat old farm house. I bet the hardwood floors were too pretty to be left behind. The building in the back with the low door makes me think of a pig barn but I wouldn't want them that close to the house.
That is so cool! I love the sound of the rain on a tin roof. What a shame the floors were gone but seeing that old stove was awesome! That old car!! Spiders had claimed it a long time ago. When you opened the car door and those thick cobwebs came into view... YUCK!!! 😂 I think the old Ute was from the 1950s? Such a great find!❤
WOW ... 20 views and no comments. Can't wait to see the old Austin ute. I sold my Austin A40 Devon around 5 years ago. Let's see what model this one is. 😃
Yet another great explore Paul! The little cottage was probably still quite sound when it was abandoned, the besser brick extension on the side would have been added in the 1960's or 1970's. The underfloor stone supports are known as 'dwarf walls', they would likely have had jarrah joists and maybe baltic pine floorboards. The Austin ute didn't look like it had been totally run into the ground like most utes of yhe era. The A frame on the front was so it could be towed behind a tractor or a header to a remote paddock by a single person, and could be driven back at the end of the day, leaving the heavy machinery outvin the paddock to return to the next day. Keep up the exploring!
Cheers John! :-) Very valuable info mate, will get out your way soon! Will pick your brain on some other things about farming and machinery too! Cheers mate :-)
Oh my gosh what an awesome farm house in the countryside love it, naturally decaying over the years it sure looks like it hasn’t been lived in for a long time love the retro radio and the cool Ute, I’m trying to imagine who would have lived there in the past probably a farming family. Thank you for the tour. 😊🌟x
Glad you enjoyed it Megan 😊👍🙂 although in rough shape it still tells a story of how it was a hard working farm. Loved the old Ute the best. Cheers for watching 🙂👍
Ah, you had me at hello- 100 years later and she was still sheltering someone from the rain. That would have been a hell of a lot of cinderblock to haul out into the middle of nowhere. I really like that the floor joists were fieldstone, that was amazing, and something else that occurred to me- with all of these houses being made of fieldstone, or cinderblock, they had few bugs to be in the walls. You know, Paul- even on this property, there is still so much that could be salvaged, all that wood, the car, the metal, the fencing....... stoves. I imagine it is part of a larger farm? It looked like it had been far longer than 35 years since the last occupant. I think I was born in the wrong century. Thanks for another great explore, love these farms....--SDK
That's what I always say .born in the wrong century.I also loved the fact of the floor joists being made how they were.Some people just really love old stuff..the older the better.last house I lived in was a 1840 build..haunted af too
Hi SDK 😊👍 yeah when the floor is off its great to get a look at how the did the foundations. South Australia uses stone where across the boarder in Victoria the used wood. 👍😊
Long time subscriber and liker, first time commenting. Dude, you have really raised the bar when it comes to urbex. Your videos are awesome, the commentary is spot on and the respect given is outstanding! Keep up the great work mate and always looking forward to the next adventure!
Hi Darryl 👍😊 Cheers mate, much appreciated and thanks for watching . I certainly love finding and filming these old places to take you guys along on the adventure figuring out all the mysteries! Many more to come 🙂👍
Hi paul, what a great find, if the floor boards were still down the home would be nice. Some we all hope some great memories there. I was loving the stone work on the outer dwellings. Great work. Cheers Deb
nice old farm house paul a shame all the floor boards were gone i liked the three stoves left behind in kitchen and the old tractor tyres what a classic didnt think farmers would store them inside the house but must have been really nice to look at in its younger years, and the old austin car left behind very nice would look very nice if selviged and restore to its original state awsome explore paul thanks for sharing another great video cheers mate.
Hey Paul. Lots of interesting sheds and such to check out in the yard. Love the fence around the house to keep stock out. I think that low building could possibly be cold storage. Maybe had some type of refrigeration set up. Must say. That extension might have been practical on the inside. But pretty ugly from the front. And cinder blocks? Not the best choice.
@@silverbullet2286 ... if you Google Crosley Freezer, you'll that to be correct. It was the brand name of refrigerators etc in the 1950s. No freezer shows under the name Crosby.
Wondering if the low shed could have been a pump room with holes in the wall for exhaust pipes and maybe a generator, though i didnt see a generator block. But it was close to the well so maybe??
Paul, did something happen in Australia in the late 80’s early 90’s to push all these farmers or ranchers back into the cities? It seems like it would be so hard to go out and establish a ranch, build the place, get all the farm equipment, and hire all the hands to help out. And so many of them just walked away and left everything, sometimes even their furniture and personal belongings. But all that farm machinery!! Even their cars! Seems like such a huge loss. Was there an illness that attacked the sheep or other livestock? Or a epidemic in Australia that made a lot of people really ill? Here in America there’s a revival of sorts, young families are dreaming of living “off the grid” starting hobby farms, raising chickens, planting big gardens to feed themselves and their children.
Hi Cali 😊 yes in the late 90s at least in the state of Victoria rental properties were subjected higher maintenance standards. A lot of these old farm houses at this point were being used by renters when work was still available out in rural areas so the farmers who owned then saw it as not being viable to get them up to standard so they were vacated 😊😁
Where in Australia is this bloke lol? I'm 40 and never once seen an abandoned house in my life, yet seems like this man has 50% abandoned properties in his state lol.
What a beaut of a ute! I hope it don't go to waste and at 70k it likely can be made to run with little investment. Better yet restore it! Thanks for the tour Paul! 👍🤠 🇺🇸 Notes: 5:00 Paul, is your hand abnormally large or is the doorknob abnormally small? 5:55 Crosley, once maker of appliances, radios and automobles. 8:26 Etch a Sketch, they've been around for quite awhile, I had one as a little kid in the early 60's, they were all red then. 15:54 Esse brand stove: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esse_stoves
Bonjour d'Occitanie (France) 22:57 ce petit bâtiment est trop bas pour qu'il puisse servir à abriter des animaux de fermes (il faut nettoyer ces espaces) si un homme ne peut pas ce tenir vraiment debout c'est impossible. S'il fait très chaud en été, qu'il y a un manque chronique d'eau un ancien réservoir abrité c'est possible. Mais comme je ne connais pas l'Australie je ne fait qu'une supposition. S'il y a un vrai puits je chercherais à stocker le maximum d'eau, certains puits ne tarissent pas en été, mais d'autres oui mêmes dans ma région.
I may have asked you this before,how you learn about the different types of houses? And the stuff that went in them. Like certain kinds of stoves etc. For certain era's. Have a good weekend 😊.
When I was on a Survey ship in the 70's, we had a Banyan on I think it was Kangaroo island. A group of us went on a walk and found an old abandoned house, we were looking around and we ripped up some lino in ehaat we thought was the kitchen. Under the lino we found some newsprint, and The headline on the paper was the Japanese attack on pearl harbour. Interesting
I don't think I've ever seen a brick or stone outhouse or chicken coop. Is that standard or more rare in Australia? Loved the Ute. The outside of the old home was maybe better than inside!!!
With that hitch on the ute my guess would be for the tractor to tow it out of bogs. The miles are 70016, so 70 thousand miles as the trip meter has the tenths counter.
With the floors gone, one good thing, you won't fall through the floor.😊 I wish you would open the ovens so we could see what the top drawer is and how big the inside is. Thanks. I don't get how you get water from the tanks, didn't see any pipes leading to the house, just the stand.
Hi Bluerose, I did try open the big cast iron oven but the doors were jammed 😊 usually the is a pipe or pump but must have been removed or fallen off 😊👍
@@urbexindigo5164 I was talking about the regular ovens, I saw you try the big cast iron, and I was hoping you would try the others. Thanks for the info about the water tanks.
So much for no rain this summer and el nino drought conditions..they really tried to push the climate change catastrophe a little early and got it really wrong again 🤣

Nice one mate. A lot of history there. That Ute was awesome. Great ending to the show! Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
The poor old girl I feel so sorry for her. She kept her family warm in winter cool in summer and just left to fall apart. What a shame.
Another old gem! I have an old warm morning heater! Cool video mate! ❤️😘🤘👍
Etch A Sketch, lol!
(came out in the 60's, I had an original red one .. that one was a later version)
Thanks Paul!
Love the way you treat these old buildings. Lots of respect from riono
Love the sound of the rain on the roof. Memories of childhood. Once the flooring is taken out it changes the feel of the place.
The chest freezer is a luxury I think.

A friend's grandad in Sydney still had a sedan version of this Austin in the 70s. Even then it seemed old. Different world. Cheers.
On the dash there is an indicator light IGN ie ignition. What is that for why would you need a light to indicate ignition is on ?
@@Islandwaterjet... when the key was turned to 'ON' that light glowed to show there was battery power to start the vehicle. There was a separate knob to engage/pull to start the engine. Someone else might explain better than I have. 😁
I would go for A55 thats what I reckon too
there were keys in the glovebox lock in that old ute
The old Ute was great. You should’ve looked in glove box 😉
I was saying "open it!" The keys were in it just begging for a peek. Probably only an empty old packet of Winnie Reds & more cobwebs.

The rego sticker on the windscreen would have had the year it was last registered on it.
I’m not sure that deep
freezer might say Crosbey
or something can’t tell
it’s not very clear.
Where all those machines were there were some semi air bags for suspension
You need to carry an umbrella with you!,or at least a plastic garbage bag or raincoat, so youll not get wet
What a beaut of a ute! I hope it don't go to waste and at 70k it likely can be made to run with little investment. Better yet restore it!
Thanks for the tour Paul!

Nothin like the sound of rain on a tin roof,looks dry is this a recent film?
I may have asked you this before,how you learn about the different types of houses? And the stuff that went in them. Like certain kinds of stoves etc. For certain era's. Have a good weekend 😊.
Engine is a Land Rover 2-1/4 litre 4 cylinder.
When I was on a Survey ship in the 70's, we had a Banyan on I think it was Kangaroo island. A group of us went on a walk and found an old abandoned house, we were looking around and we ripped up some lino in ehaat we thought was the kitchen. Under the lino we found some newsprint, and The headline on the paper was the Japanese attack on pearl harbour. Interesting
Hi Frederick, yep things like that add to exploring old places. Gives a time frame of what they were doing and what was going on at the time 🙂👍
I don't think I've ever seen a brick or stone outhouse or chicken coop. Is that standard or more rare in Australia? Loved the Ute. The outside of the old home was maybe better than inside!!!
❤❤❤❤❤
With that hitch on the ute my guess would be for the tractor to tow it out of bogs. The miles are 70016, so 70 thousand miles as the trip meter has the tenths counter.
The television on the front verandah is a Philips K9 from 1974-75. As others have said, the freezer is a Crosley.
Box of toys had a SpongeBob mug in it. That was first released as a cartoon in May of 1999.
I reckon its a doghouse not enough light for avian
With the floors gone, one good thing, you won't fall through the floor.😊 I wish you would open the ovens so we could see what the top drawer is and how big the inside is. Thanks. I don't get how you get water from the tanks, didn't see any pipes leading to the house, just the stand.
Hi Bluerose, I did try open the big cast iron oven but the doors were jammed 😊 usually the is a pipe or pump but must have been removed or fallen off 😊👍
@@urbexindigo5164 I was talking about the regular ovens, I saw you try the big cast iron, and I was hoping you would try the others. Thanks for the info about the water tanks.
I wonder why people just leave them to rot?...it be fun to renovate 😊
Hello friend, you know im surprised that no immigrants are taking advantage of the ready to move in abandoned homes and buildings everywhere..
This country was built on the backs of immigrants and we still need them don't u think they deserve proper housing?
I have wondered why no one buys these old places and restores them?
Is that a Austin A60? If it is and was in good nick be worth $17k
Hi Paul another great explore... chest is a Crosley by GE.
TROLL DOOR 😂
So much for no rain this summer and el nino drought conditions..they really tried to push the climate change catastrophe a little early and got it really wrong again 🤣
Why are there always peppercorn trees in these old places??
Where are the people that use to leave there?
Where is this in SA
