  • Hey house lovers and explorers! Today I show you 2 neighboring homes that were built in the early 60`s. Michael spotted these a few weeks ago and we checked them but at that stage not accessible so on this day I was on my way to work and thought I would check them again and this time the gates were open along with the homes. Some flooring had been pulled up in one homes exposing some cool old things and toys in the dirt.
    A huge double lot with fruit trees and a bird who was keen to get the fruit but then confused on how to get out of the tree coverings! Then a mysterious person turns up!!!
    These home will be demolished very soon unfortunately.
    Hope you all enjoy the explore, cheers for watching :-)

    I always feel sad to see not only the homes in good condition go, but also some of the lovely well established fruit trees, grapevine and garden plants that get destroyed during the demolishing process. Am glad you happened by to rescue that bird, he was letting you know he was in trouble and was grateful to be set free, good on you!🦘😕🙂

    Love all the amazing old ephemera & memoriablia near the un-earthings near the fire place - I imagine each of those items tells a story - the little yellow cab & xylophone but especially the old card/s with the roses (scrap bookers pay good money for vintage ephemera) 🌹I believe the little birdie is a yellow throated miner bird from a glimpse & I recognise their song - so happy you set it free 🐦. Always love a good reno 80's revamp on an old home & happy they kept the old kitchen cabinet for the tools. I always love so see the grey 70's concrete pattern bricks used for garden fencing & decorations & sprinklings of beloved fruit trees - thanks for little glimpses of home memories back then 💕(I love your video intros - the old singer sewing machine is everything) xx

    Terrific video as always. Fascinating look at the floor joists. All brick. Genuine fireplaces are all but extinct in new construction in the US. Our home has one (1993). Interior of local river stone. Our son used a pretty upscale contractor and they just gave a him a brick front and gas logs. Not even vented. I thought it was sad. Australia and eastern Canada have some areas of redevelopment that are just amazing. I think the Australian are the more tragic because of the era of the homes. Keep up the great work. You deserve many more subs. ❤

    Good on ya, Paul! @ 17:45 the bird you rescued was a Noisy Mynah, a native to South Eastern Australia, & a type of honey-eater. We have some Australian magpies who come to our garden & the mynahs REALLY give them a bit of hurry up. Just as well they are native...
    @ 11:51, the article you had a look at was about a TV show: "The Defenders" on TV from about 1961 to '65, starring E.G.Marshall & Robert Reed. I'm full of trivia, mate. Some people think I'm full of something else... Love your work!!!

    Hi Paul
    You are a true animal lover and not just cats. That was so sweet of you to free that little
    bird. He was yelping so you would come and set him or her free. I was nervous when I
    saw someone walking on the back patio. I figured it was the owner and you were going
    to have to explain what you are doing there. Thank goodness it was your friend Michael.
    These 2 houses must have been beauties especially before they ripped up the floor in
    the first one. They will knock over these 2 nice houses and put up some ugly cold looking
    apartment buildings or maybe build a big mansion that will take up both lots. That second
    house looked pretty clean and well taken care of. I am curious about something Paul.
    What would happen if someone showed up there that has a connection to the house and
    saw you there. Would you get arrested or what would happen? It’s a risk going into these
    houses and not getting caught. We appreciate the risk you take to be able to show us
    these lovely houses. Thank you for sharing and stay safe and well Paul.

Ohh Micheal you scared the living crapers out of Paul Lol. The second home looks like you could still live in it what a waste and it looks like the owners cleaned the house when they left it im thinking maybe a rental property and then some developers bought it and now doomed for redevelopment.

    Hi there, I've recently discovered your channel and love your videos. Some of the houses are so beautiful and it's heartbreaking to know all that amazing Adelaide history is being demolished, especially considering some of the rubbish that takes its place.
    In case you're interested, I passed a place on Augusta St Maylands last night that looks like it's up for demolition - it had the fencing up. From the brief glimpse I got as I drove past it looked like a stunner. It's on the corner of Dover St, or possibly Clifton.

The point, which you may not know, is that Oz has the most venomous snakes and spiders in the world and they can hang out in urban environments. This is because they were cut off from the rest of Gondwana so early on that a lot of the old defensive adaptations were retained. I would think twice before sticking my bare hands into stuff as this guy does, especially an abandoned place.

They will be replaced with a new home complex with homes that are cheaply knocked together at a very low quality with cheap & crappy chinese materials. All this for pure GREED.
