  • This is a 2 story Art deco/waterfall style villa with awesome details, fixtures and colors inside that scream 1930`s through to the late 50`s. This has been abandoned for about 9 years it seems and has already had some salvage started to it. It is unclear exactly what the fate of this large block is as it is. Take a look with me at what hopefully will not be lost forever.

    The old Xpelair fan in the window is 1940/50s and very rare and collectible in fan circles. That is a beautiful house - I adore Art Deco design. What a great tour

    Love this. Loved art deco since a kid helping sell antiques in the family store. In that era people were very creative with entertainment activities. Restaurants didn't have the huge draws all at once nor the laws we have today. It's possible to run in just a large kitchen for the time the cooking. Just like special home cooking. We certainly don't get that sort of cooking at home much anymore. Makes me hungry for that real food!

    I just sold my club lounge today so what a coincidence! I love the art deco style. I love rounded walls and that booth seat is amazing. Pink and black in the bathroom looks great. The music was a bit of a tear jerker for me, reminded me of my dad. Enjoyed this one a lot. :)

    Awesome Art Deco house should be heritage listed,would have been built by a wealthy person back in the day. Fitting music there buddy nice touch well done.I think it may have been used as a brothel going by the red curtains ,would be good to see the exterior love the curved facades on these homes ,very cool find cheers mate.🍻👍

      Hey Roysta! Cheers mate I enjoyed finding the old music for this one, It needed some period music to go with it. A few people have stated they think it was a private exclusive dining and entertaining club for select clientele. I think that fits. Has the exit lights and mirrors. Prob had a little cocktail bar upstairs too. Pretty cool. :-)

    • @urbexindigo5164
      @urbexindigo5164  6 років тому +1

      Gerald I think that is the best explanation for this place yet! Indeed a private party and function venue!!!!! Love it. It explains all the things inside including the mirrors on the stairs. The exit sign on the first stair landing too. Quick evacuation for many people this suggests by law. Definitely been some people using it for a shelter or stop off point. Thanks for watching :-)

    I love the deco and pink bathroom. Not much of a restaurant to me, with the astrology magazines, maybe tarot card readings, and a brothel? Not sure, everything about it is not what it seems. No menus? it was a small business. I like the stairs and that fireplace. Someone was staying there, I quickly saw a can, of some sort on the floor next to the chair near the fireplace.
    Cute video, love the the added music.💕

    • @urbexindigo5164
      @urbexindigo5164  5 років тому

      Hey Elizabeth I was able to find out that this place was used as a taxi service home based operation. The large yard used to have all the cabs parked there and the staff would have to use the bottom floor thus the exit signs required for a business. This was up til 2010 then it was rented for a year, then vacant/abandoned. Built 1955. Thanks for watching :-)

    As a child I remember when this house was built, it had pine trees & a pool out front, when the transport department decided to expand Anzac Highway they brought most of the house for the expansion, the previous owners were not allowed to take any fixtures from the house only their personal belongings, over the years I had seen a cyclone fences around the front of the abandoned house,

    Great to see an Art Deco building, don't see many of them. My only thought is that I don't think it is being salvaged, it is being robbed. Salvagers would have gone after the frig and the curved booth not torn them up. Thieves take plumbing and wire and easy to move items. It is odd that those good ladders were left though. Maybe the thieves just got to some things before the salvagers showed up! I agree the bathrooms are amazing and whatever its use, it is a WOW. It would be great fun to fix and then live in.

    • @urbexindigo5164
      @urbexindigo5164  6 років тому +1

    So wonderful! Think it was residential to begin with, and then converted. The countertops in the kitchen are So Cool, and nicely complimented by the upper cabinets with sliding glass doors.The curved walls with curved glass so streamlined!Personal Fave An Awesome Front door with three portholes! The Classical niches and ceiling medallions don't seem original to me, although vintage not the right style, but hey there's no accounting for taste, seems the originals would have been chrome and streamlined, and very uniquely designed especially for the space!

    I live a couple streets from here and about 20 years ago there were lots of taxis parked in the yard like a taxi hub. It would have been a stately home in the early years and then rented out to businesses in the end, maybe 70's on? Yes anything with rounded windows and walls like that is art deco, built between the world wars 1920's - 1930's.
    This is a good one Urbex! You would know the really cool art deco townhouse complex a few doors down from this one which is really high end and really well maintained, I've been inside a couple when they were for sale and they are beautiful. I hope the whole property is heritage listed, it's looks straight out of old Hollywood, Bette Davis time :-) Oh yeah and now this one has graffiti ALL over the front upstairs window, surely ear marked for demolition

Yep this site is ear marked for a huge development and will be gone soon. Glad I explored it when it was still ok condition as now everything is tagged and smashed to pieces! That art deco complex I wish I have seen, I do like art deco! :-) In fact I will let you in on a little secret......up Anzac Hwy towards the city just before officeworks on the left there is an old iconic art deco building, 4 units in one. I`m the last tennant in there renting, that whole block including the older homes behind are on hold as developers are in on the game of proposals.......a few years back it was nearly redeveloped too!

    Had to have been built as a home (just lovely--all those windows and rounded walls:) but then a small business could have been run out of it, but probably not a restaurant because the kitchen is too small and ill-equipped for that. The sign upstairs indicates that it was used as a business space, and therefore being sold as that again.

    The house looks fantastic on the outside! That medallion, chandelier and fireplace were gorgeous. The round room with the round built in seating was straight out of the 50s along with the front door, you would see doors like that entering drugstores or soda fountains. Those shelves with the glass fronts are making a big comeback here in America. What an entranceway! Another rounded room! They sure liked medallions and chandeliers in all the rooms. As they would say in the 40s and 50s, pastels made us feel “happy and gay”. The kitchens in those days looked pretty much alike. In Art Deco homes of course. The sectional couch looks quite nice. I would have loved to have a rounded bedroom when I was growing up.

    There's a timeline there. The original was probably built in the 1940's with a major refresh in the mid 80's. There are hold-overs, the Sectional settee was period correct, the Porthole door was as well. The style was mid-century modern. The cooker in the kitchen was straight out of 1968, the orbital clock with the digital display is classic. would have cost a truckload of money even then. The kitchen counter cabinets are so fifties it hurts. the pink & Black tiles are dead out of 1955, but the fixtures are new style That place would be a museum display here. Wonder who designed that? somebody important I bet. Wonderful find.

I could only really be sure of the counter cabinets and booth style eating area as being 50`s the rest I was trying my best to squeeze into Art deco haha. The building from outside looks very Art deco to me. Chandeliers not so much Art deco though but very retro...Thanks for watching mate :-)

      Viewed the home with the pink bathroom, which I've seen in other homes you have shown. I personally would rather have the blue. The pink reminds me of a medicine in the U. S. when I was about 8 years old. It was called Pepno Bismal for upset stomaches. I am now 71 years old now. Believe me it did not taste very good.😝 I probably misspelled the first word .🥞🥞🤭In

    What a crazy quilt of architectural styles! Everything from the '20s through the '90s. Love the pink tub and surround. I don't see it as a restaurant because, as another commenter said, the kitchen is way too small. It doesn't have the vibe of a brothel at all, either (though the carpet on the walls and mirrors everyplace are what every wannabe ladies' man in the 70's would've wanted for his pad). Maybe a bed and breakfast? Nice explore, nice and slow 👏🏼😻

      Hi kaiserbill5711 thanks for watching. Yeah this area has a lot of redevelopment going on at the moment so maybe the price was right for the owner to let it go. Such a place to be sitting in limbo with salvage started in my opinion means it has no plans for restoration? If someone does own it maybe they have ran out of money and decided to let it sit. Either way it is a shame . Glad I got to look inside.
