Abandoned 1920's farm house high on a hill about 15 minutes away from home. Spring Grove. Northern nsw, Australia. *Footnote, the house has been knocked down now so I'm happy I got to record it before it went. / mkuebler5
Love the video. Love the house. You did a great job. I felt like I was there checking the place out. I could see the different surfaces etc, and they looked close enough to touch!
What a beautiful home. The ceilings are amazing! Good thing you were able to document it before it was torn down. They just don't build nice ones like that anymore.
Awwwww noooo! I just read a comment that this beautiful old house has been demolished! That's a terrible shame! it would have been so beautiful restored!
i suddenly felt so homesick when i saw the miles and miles of empty fileds and sun shining and big old house just standing there with big windows and doors.... it must have been a beautiful place before it was abandoned..it reminds me of something but i cannot recall what it is.. love your video.. thanks
I would love to live in this house. The molding on the ceiling must have been amazing in its day. I adore all the original cupboards,range, fireplace etc but the most charming thing for me was the little fire pit in the bathroom. I would love to own this place and do it up to its original state. Thanks for sharing
Fark ~ The Hallway ceilings The Homestead Is Gorgeous !!! So Glad you got to record this glorious place Just Fabulous !! With the Quintessential melodic call of the magpie This Australia !!
Ceiling was fabulous! Just imagine how it looked before all the layers of paint had been put on. The woodwork would have been gorgeous when it was new. KITCHEN FIRE! TIN ROOF RUSTED. A B52 song reference .
What a lovely house it WAS. So functional-that kitchen was just beautiful-but with such nice touches like the spacious rooms and the beautiful ceilings. The views out of the windows and off the veranda were so nice-that veranda was so inviting. I'm glad you documented the house before it was razed-it's obviously representative of a way of life that no longer exists and will likely never come again. Creating a visual history is so important and necessary. Thank you for doing such a wonderful thing.
I loved this house especially the high chair rail. The doors might have,just guessing, have high door knobs so little children couldn't reach them🤔. Thanks for the video😊. God Bless🙏 Be Safe😉 Cathy🌻 Ohio,🇺🇲
A very nice house. Must have been quite fancy in its heyday. Delightful verandah. I was very taken with all of the glass exterior doors. Would they still be called French doors even being hung singly? Fancy plasterwork on the ceiling. Paneled walls. And the dramatic kitchen fireplace. This is a gem. Thank you for letting us discover it with you.
Thank you for this one. I absolutely LOVED the ceilings. Wish i could find someone to do that for mine! I love the wrap around porch too The kitchen was very functional
3:17 ceiling molding is extrodinary. Beauty. I like wrap around porch. These porches offer scenic. But further inside home plain. Grand entrance nevertheless
I think it was a ranch with workers who lived there. Lots of rooms entered from outside. I rather like the bathroom on the porch... everyone could wash up and then come in for supper! In its day I bet it was bright and cheerful. Everything is lonely when the people are gone. So quiet. I love the land and those big rain catchers.. you should've looked inside them.
Please tell me someone is restoring that beautiful old home! It has so much character and just needs a renovation and it would be absolutely gorgeous!! perfect home for one of those home design shows!!
nice property w/ awesome viewz all around .. would have been so very kool 2 purchase that old place & restore it- b'4 they demolished it summer-time / all the time .. sitt'n-bak / relax'n & sipp'n on sum kool lemonade - taking-in the panoramic 360° - valley view on that fine - antiQue deck .. .. .. . (edit) - aah yess / my luv' .
The ceilings and the doors are fantastic. The kitchen fireplace with the old cook stove is my favorite though. Looked like rough living.I can see sheep here too.
Thank you for your videos. I'm a new subscriber from the U.S. and enjoying your tour of New South Wales. I love the old houses with the porches (verandas).
Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful home.im sure in its day it was full of happy times.could be again.im sure a family member owns it somewhere.looks so peaceful.wonderful views. 🏠.the veranda is amazing.
There are a lot of homes left to die, because no family member wants to live there!! Even wealthy people like Liza Minnelli her Ritzy house had narrow hallways, nothing likeable about it!! It's on youtube!!! and just dying!!
With a lot of elbow grease, some scraping and painting that old lady would have been livable again. Those ceilings were a unexpected delight. Stay safe.
I'd love to be in the position to do a place like this up. I love the windows and the doors leading into the porch. It would need a lot of work, first of which would be a bathroom and the kitchen. Have you ever considered talking about the history of the house and each room etc as you go?
Once again you saved a piece of history. The drawings were nice. You can picture the kids playing in the yard & the family having a nice barbaque & drinking a nice cool one. Hope you got your deer skull alright. I still like the car ride trip. That was fun. ( :
mkuebler5 Loved the new vid. That home with the huge porches going all around. If they'd spend alot of time downstairs figures they'd have a bath downstaires. Your cammar was spot on! So were you. Say "hi" to your son for us won't you?😊
Just watching this found it hard at first to understand no.talk nothing silence more good than you think omg uou know what you're doing well continue this is fantastic bless uou
whats it like living in nsw au and do u like it. love this home. so glad u recorded it. had a feeling the woman who used to live there didnt want u there
That was a Very, Roomy farm home!! A few of the ceilings were very Ornate!! I wish you would tell us about some of the things you are seeing! Like, how did they get their water and store it? Also, what would a farm like this have done to earn money?!? Also, could you maybe improve your lighting?
I was watching the floor for evidence of heat only got to see one floor!! although those cages outside...what are they for chicken raising? Rabbit raising for meat he wouldn't let us see it!!! Finally saw one water outlet, instantly knew the water was rainwater!! a good collector but no good out front, a good one in the back yard!!
This is near Caniba?.I use to live in the old original Armstrong homestead for 12 yrs. the old grave of Alick the racehorse who died in the late 1800's was straight across the rd. 1014 kyogle rd. built in 1830's. had to leave as it was falling down around us
Going out to bathroom must have been strange, however nice and warm with copper. Doubled as a laundry room too I would think. Did you see the cat in the cupboard looking at you?
Done look haunted to beautiful! Can’t believe still standing amazing how life was back thin who use live here good memories family time remember thee wasn’t no Technology but it looks like it was upgrading from 1980’s from the telephone kids coloring book all that land middle no where have ur own privacy life was good
It must have been updated in the 1950s as there's a lot of fibro inside, possibly to cover tongue & groove which can become draughty as it ages. I love the French Windows (this has been changed to 'French Doors' over the years for some reason). An old copper and Reckitt's Blue was best for the whitest of white bedlinen
