Abandoned- Huge 50`s home with huge Pool and hidden shed with stuff 

This home has more character than the tract offering proposed to replace it. I would have bought it and brought the elegant mid-century maid back to her former glory!

You can definitely see the hand of a countryman in the planning there. Really went bonkers on the blueprints, and told the builder to throw everything in the pattern book at the kitchen, must have sunk a packet into it Right down to the pediment tile work to match the deco stepped alcove in the bath. Lovely early 50's red\& white in the kitchen so appropriate to the time. Wow. Good Job Catching it before the end came.

That bathroom was awesome,, same with the kitchen. Couple of classic pushies in the shed ,, one looked like a repco but couldn’t make the others out . I’ll screenshot them and enlarge them ( love old bikes ) . Great find mate , she was a classy dame back in the day I’m sure.cheers mate.

Gee that toilet is a long way back, you wouldn’t want to be busting, lol And in the main bedroom you would have no chance to change your room around it will stay in the same position for ever😮 So much cupboard space in that huge kitchen. Love the bathroom, what a great home and big. Thanks Paul for another great video 😊

Man, that bathroom is utterly spectacular! The sun-ray motif in the floor, the gorgeous shiny "deco green" and black tiles, the matching china of the tub and basin. The stair-step "zig zag" threshold headers are icing on a magnificent confection. I love it!!!

My God... what a magnificent home! I can only imagine what this must have looked like in its prime 🥰 Come on... Aren't there any millionaire Aussies watching this with the rest of us that would like a little 'restoration project' with this beauty? 😊😁

I really liked the mantle,in the living room.The layout was a little strange but bet it was a beauty back in the day.Another great one Paul 👍❤️🇺🇸

That would have been a dream kitchen in it's prime.

Wow!! This was amazing!!! Been watching your channel for awhile now, Paul, (hitting the 'thumbs up' button every time!) and I do believe this is your largest, residential home explore to date! She must have been something back in the day, when her floors were polished and the furniture was placed just so! Can you imagine what we would have seen had we gotten there before the reno started? I don't think it'd ever seen an update in all the years she stood - and I'm wondering if the house wasn't built some time in the 1920's (I only say that because the button handles on the cupboard (cabinet) doors in the kitchen looked exactly like the ones my parent's had on their original cupboard doors, and their house was built in 1921). I had to chuckle when you noticed the broken down bicycle in the first bedroom (with the built-in headboard), and came across the bike wheel in, I think, was the last bedroom and thought, "Well, there's the rest of the bike!" - they sure did like their bikes, didn't they? The fact that you even thought to plow through that foliage to find that hidden shed - too cool (I would have stopped at the pool skimmers laying there on the ground and wondered who's hands of those that lived in this house had placed them there...possibly expecting to come back and put them away properly, but never did), and because of that, I would have totally missed that hidden path...well, that and worrying about your awful Aussie spiders lurking in the bushes! Anyways, this was A Most Excellent explore and, as always, so glad you shared!

This house was built in the 1930’s…The door knobs tell the tale as well as the art deco bathroom. Just gorgeous!

Wow! What find. Would have been stunning in its day. I would cost a bomb but it doesn’t look too far beyond restoration. The bathroom was incredible. Thank for posting 👍

Urbex Indigo thanks for sharing this video with me about Abandoned- Huge 50`s home with huge Pool and hidden shed with stuff this video was very interesting because it is nice to see how your country does thing i really enjoy your channel and i am glad i am part of it so i can enjoy it i am from the U.S.A And i will always show support to your channel and keep watching your videos and give a thumbs up and to share you out my friend and God Bless and thanks again.

It’s a shame this beautiful home wasn’t shown more love in it’s last years! Thank you! The main bathroom was gorgeous!

I love the green bathroom that's what been a nice house

Oh wow i agree this house would have looked great in its prime, if only those walls could talk, shame the ceiling can't lol. That bathroom is so Green, but it is so cool... if it was in great condition i'd so love to live there. Thanks for sharing Cheers MM :)

When I was younger, I used to clean vacant houses for different realtors. I would’ve walked in to that 1950s waterfall house, then immediately walked out back and cried. 😢

I don't mind the abundance of space in those 50s homes. One very beautiful and loved home at some point of time. Hope you made another home for that Dire straits record! One of the 80s best!

Good morning Paul this home has a lot of character and I’m sure it was beautiful back in the day. I hate seeing the older homes being demolished. They were built better than they are today. Thank you for sharing have a great day 😊

Hoarding happens everywhere and to anyone. It's a common problem you'll find in the community. All communities. Thank you for sharing

Oh my goodness Paul. What a lovely home it must have been in its day, yes, I think that cabinet was a gun cabinet. Watching from Festus,Missouri. 🇺🇸 Please save the bikes,don't let them go to the land fill. 🙏

I love that bathroom with the vanity alcove and the master bedroom with all the built-ins. 50's homes were made for comfortable living. The kitchens are always big, too, and that's a really nice feature. What a fabulous home this must have been.

What a lovely old home. It would have been stunning in its hay day. Being a hoarder is a mental condition. I would say it was an older couple living in the house with the two different height marks on the wall as though it was used for their stabilty when walking. Maybe they were overwelmed with everything and it got out of control.

That house was probably gorgeous in it's day, but definitely a maze!! I'm surprised that no one salvaged the beveled mirrors. I Iove large kitchens, would have been amazing to see set up & clean. Other than the pool, the backyard was almost anticlimactic compared to the house, perhaps because it was so overgrown. It's sad how hoarding destroys a home. Was that a movie reel on the floor of the shed?

I love the green bathroom - it would have been awesome to see when it was brand new! (Just an awesome colour & layout!)

I think this was one of your best explores. What a sad end to a magestic, old dame. I’d love to know the history on her. Could have been a huge rich family, or a famous athlete with a training pool. Thanks for the tour, it will have me dreaming all day.

This dear ol home would’ve been so POSH back in its heyday. Would love to see a floorplan! Very intriguing, thanks for your care in showing us all the amazing details. Best TV ever! ❤

The glorious fireplace mantle! Loved it, so perfect, exactly what I'd love to have if we could have a fireplace. The green bathroom was lovely, just surprised it was relatively small for such a vast house, with the bath squeezed at the back. The spacious kitchen must have been so nice to cook and have a meal in. The magical waterfall shape of the house! Thank you for such a beautiful visit. It is so sad that it came to this state of decay, and will be replaced with a nice but impersonal house. But you saved it forever in our collective memories :)

Huge home, and i could see past the dirt and grime to know it was a lovely place when it was being taken care of. Sad to think what could have happened to the owners to have come to this. Thanks for the walk Paul cheers!! 💜☮️

This house was pretty neat. If we had seen it when it was in its glory… Thanks for the tour!

What a home this would have been when it was first built. That Art Deco bathroom was spot on! And the red and white kitchen was big here in the 40’s and early 50’s in the Midwest, US. We are a two generation family living in a large house. My dream would be to have a small house about 600 to 800 sq. feet. The more available space the more stuff comes in, less space one is choosier about what is brought into the home. Having stuff keeps me busy taking care of it and less time for what I’d rather be doing. So I’ve been busy donating to the public library, church thrift store, and goodwill. The hardest to give away are the books, but still have more to do. I don’t envy the big house, but having a pool like that!! That makes me a tad envious 😁. Thanks for the video Paul👍🏻😊

What a grand home it must have been and that pool !

What a shame. This is a fabulous home! I would love this so much! I'll bet the ceilings had very nice details (medallions or rosettes) with awesome light fixtures! HUGE kitchen! I just love that place so much! I'm sad it's going to be demolished.

I’m with you, I would have loved to see this home it’s prime. I can tell she was a beauty. Too bad this home fell into disrepair.

Cool video Urbex really beautiful back in the day cheers 🍻

Paul, what an amazing find. I too, would've loved to have seen it in original condition. The mantel in the living room was so different. And the main bathroom was very nice. Thank you and take care. Cheers from Arizona.

really like the old green and black bath room

It's like a rabbit warren...little rooms everywhere...seemed very dark and dingy to me. Shame there was no power..could have turned a light on ... I doubt they could put an air con right next to a sink these days..lol... Makes some sense, cooking etc on hot days....and those power boxes and old fuses..what a pain they were. Could never find any fuse wire when you needed it..lol...My fav part was the backyard...a child's adventure playground..love it....

I always imagine how all the places you explore would have looked back in their heyday. But this one would have just been incredible ❤

Amazing property, great explore. So good to get a property like this documented.

Hoarding is a mental disorder. My mother was a hiader, it made childhood very difficult. I remember once doing a clean up , thought I would surprise her when she got back from my sisters, she was so upset. When she had calmed down she told me I had no idea what it was like living through the war and going without, she was not going to go through that again. Helped me reconcile my feelings regarding her hoarding.

Paul To Just Take a Moment Back in Time To see when this Beautiful Home was First Built how Amazing. I will Never Understand How The Human Race Become Hoarders, I Understand it's a Mental Illness, But As a Sufferer of O.C.D Cleanliness and Organisation It really Is A Horrible Thing To Suffer From. That Fireplace at the start Stunning. kindest thoughts to you and your family and Furbabies from the state of Victoria. Brilliant Video Thank you Paul

This place was a awsome explore mate there was a skip at the font with trees growing in it. So they finally moved it it’s been sitting there for months loved that shed with all the odds and sods in it. And the bathroom was so cool an excellent explore mate cheers

I love love love that kitchen!!!!

amazing grand house, even in ruin it is beautiful, they must have had servants back in the day

I love the wallpaper, on the walls, in the toilet!

I think that was a his and hers dressing room off that bedroom, or maybe some kind of shared dressing, sleeping and study space for kids.

"New kids on the block" a prophetic message.

How beautiful this home would have been new. That green bathroom!!! Man, wish I could ve seen it new. It does not look so huge from outside , WOW!

What a house!. What a Beauty! That bathroom "Magnificent " Would have been something to see in it's day.

Im glad you wore your mask for this explore Paul as it had a heap of black mould!

Love the Arrow supermarket bag in the back shed, under the Readers' Digest condensed book. Don't think they've been around for 30years or more.

One of the better houses you've explored Paul! Thanks! 👍👍👍👍 🇺🇲

Loved it , thanks Paul

Glad you were wearing a mask for that one. I’m not a huge fan of Art Deco, but still a fascinating explore. What a find!

wow that house,pool and garden was huge 😮😲

Beautiful old home. I love Art Deco and would have loved to have seen this place in her glory. It’s so sad that it’s being torn down but would be even sadder if they didn’t salvage first and remove some of those gorgeous interior details. 😢

Another great Explore! It was once a beautiful home,I like the bathroom. Such a shame to see the decay. Thanks for the video! Greetings from Germany🙂

Wow the random appliance in the middle of the kitchen floor was an original 1950's top loading dishwasher! very unique and rare! You can see the circular dishracks for it sitting around the counters and floor nearby.

Love the bathroom !!!

🌟Just beautiful a real classic with all the Art Deco features shame it’s gone forever love the Huge pool fancy a dip! 🤭thank you so much again 🌟😊❤🤗:-)

Love this house💙 Thank you for sharing with us.

absolute beauty, would cry at the teardown, tyvm

Not sure how such a stunning house from the 40s/50 got that bad. My house is from 45 and still in good shape, just needs some cosmetic work. The art deco features on that house are incredible. That second room off the master could be a dressing area. I've seen them in expensive homes here.

That is a very large property! Crazy huge house. I'd love to live in a home that big. That pool is crazy too. I quite liked that bathroom with the seperate little alcove for the vanity. That was cool. Shame they won't reno the plac. I'd change that pool though. Make it smaller and create a yard and BBQ/entertainment ara somehow. Great find!

Paul, that two story home at the intro, with the beautiful curved staircase, have you been thru that already? Definitely a must see. That was an enormous house! Nice

Very nice house. It's always amazing what you find, the air conditioner positioned where doing the dishes will be a more tolerable job on a hot day, Dire Straights on vinyl, New Kids on cassette, different music tastes for sure.

All the descriptive words you used before closing off were exactly my thoughts. As always, great stuff! Thanks, Ken

wow this place would be perfect to fix and live in.i am amazed on how beautiful this place is? man if i could have that place id be in paradise and with me family ! there are 8 of us .I live in united states . Thank you so much friend for this explore and all the details you are awesome to boot. Take care friend from Barbara

A great explore.... They always are! ❤️

Don’t tear it down. There’s life in it yet!

"We are planning on knocking down this wonderfully styled home to bring you these boring planned homes for you." Ugh! I hate developments at times. I understand about progress, but I would rather have my home with some outside personality as well. That means for it not to look like a clone of the others. I love me some art deco-stylized homes.

problem is with hoarding its usually others that have to clean it up

That would have been beautiful back in the day or even now if it had been taken care of properly. Hoarding is usually brought on by depression and/ or panic disorder and the person not being taken care of and shown the love they needed just like the house.

The same thing is happening in Calgary, Canada beautiful old homes being knocked down and replaced with unaffordable hideous square modern boxes that have absolutely no character or charm.

Love your channel! I'm addicted. 👍

Makes me sad to think they are pulling this one down Paul.....so nice!

Great job

That was the master suit with a huge walk in closet

Well that was a great find Paul. I could imagine that being a doctors house, it would have been beautiful in its day. There would have been so much stuff being a hoarders house much much more than a normal sized house. What I would love to know how many skips they took to the tip. Thanks Paul keep up your great finds and sharing then with us

This spacious home 🏡would be an art deco lovers dream to restore back to former glory and a pity is being demolished. So much character externally and heaps of space to accommodate a family, including the swimming pool 🏊that could easily be restored. It appears that little changes have been made internally over the years. What an intriguing explore thanks Paul. 😊

Awesome house, such a shame... the bathroom actually scares the 💩 out of me. Bit eerie. But if only that bar could talk...

The 3 connected rooms were an add on.

The games room was a film room that hole was for the film projector also note sound reduction material around it.

Love that bathroom.

That bedroom that wrapped around, may have been the maids quarters. Possibly.

Have you ever thought of checking the tax rolls to see if any of the previous owners/families of this wonderful home would have pictures of the home that they would share with you? It would be so nice to see what it looked like when it was first built. You do such a great job with the videography on these old homes and its such a shame they are left to rot or torn down in favor of ugly brass and glass. I live in Texas and when there are old buildings the state, city or county will put up a marker letting you know what year, who built it, what it's purpose was. No one would dare tear it down or destroy it in any way. Keep doing what you do because the consideration you give the properties and your viewers is just amazing!

I’m curious as to the floor layout. There was that one little room with the toilet and another with only a sink and shower. Could they have added a wall separating the two? Nice find!❤

Hoarding disorder such a tragic disorder that does not care what demographic you come from. Sad to think there was such despair in this home. I am floored by this treasure of a house. How it hasn't been saved is beyond me. It is hard to watch you film this and know that it is going to be destroyed. What a find. Thank you for sharing it with us. Waving from Maine.

Another fine example of our wastefulness. They could have renovated this lovely place.

good video

That certainly was a very nice house at one time, wasn't it? I like that large kitchen. Yes pretty big house. Sure got trashed badly.

Being in my retirement years, I find myself wondering if the person who used that pool to train, in their youth, was the same person who ended up as a hoarder and then died leaving this house abandoned. To me, the story is as fascinating as the property left behind.

Maybe that weird little room set with the en suite was staff quarters.

ohhhh paul i love

Previn: A Different Kind of Blues, EMI and it's very strange album lol

People start hoarding usually die to some trauma or loss....it can be for many reasons...this house is wonderful.....I could live in it one that bathroom was redone...lol

Yes, must have been quite a home in it's day. Still is, I a diff way, era. Careful.

A lot of curves this house has, shelves, fireplace the outside of the house. I guess the liked things with curves. So to read the meter, they have to come inside? That is what they did when I was a kid, but ours was in the basement. I do not like the air conditioner above the sink, constantly blowing on my face.

Thanks urbex really great home

This on was nicely filled, when it was filled with whatever they had you walk away with some bugs on ye.
