- Abandoned house in Woodburn nsw Australia.
I've been driving past this house for a long time and because of the condition of it always thought some one was living there until I noticed the grass and weeds had become rather tall so what's a man to do but got check it out.
The sign on the gate didn't fool me saying the premises were patrolled by guard dogs when no guard dog came out to try and eat me. The house is blah blah with not much going for it apart from it's location but I was far more interested exploring the shed down the back of the property. If anyone knows what the trough and wood burner set up was for please let me know. I think it was to aid in processing pork to help scrap the hairs off???

I can't believe your walking thru the weeds in flip flops
One of the cleanest looking abandon houses I've seen! Besides the mold lol
Thank you for closing the door on the shed. We would be worried sick if the chair got out and got lost.
Kim Mckeever Closing doors helps keep the structure intact.
Don't let the chair escape! LOL. You crack me up!
That's one of the cleanest abandoned houses I've ever seen!
Wow! Nice to see an abandoned house that wasn't a hoarder's house! LOL!
Nice little house and property. Hope someone buys and restores it. Thank you for sharing. Be happy friend, and never-mind the naysayers.
That was a damned nice house back in the day. I could have seen myself very happy there.
Stop complaining about his footwear. Thongs (not flip flops) are official work-safe footwear here in Australia ;-)
I believe the copper/fire pit and tub in shed are part of the original laundry. They were never put laundries too near houses because of the fire risk and the heat generated. The concrete tub had “fresh” water in it (usually only one lot of rinse water per wash day ). It looks just like my Nana’s set up. She didn’t get a washing machine until the late 1970s.
Memories of was wash day using a copper. The copper was filled from the water tank using buckets. The fire was set and when the water was boiling, washing soda and borax (and I think grated sunlight soap- memory is a bit foggy) were added. The wash load was added and agitated using a huge paddle-type stick. A washboard with more grated Sunlight Soap was used to scrub stubborn dirt. Nana always cautioned against too much soap as it made the clothes harder to rinse, look grey, or feel hard - or all three! Clothes were removed one at a time, gingerly (they were hot!) squeezed/rung out before being plunged the big rinse tub filled with clean water. They were agitated again before being wrung out by hand (the lucky ones had a mechanical hand operated wringer). They were then hung out to dry. Sheets and whites were always washed first, adults clothes next and finally children’s clothes. At the end of day, the wash water was used to scrub floors and water gardens...all of it carried bucket load by bucket load to where it was to be used. Water was, and is, a precious commodity!
By the way, it really was a “wash day”. We had to be present the whole time - tending the fire, agitating and wringing the clothes and finally reusing the water on the floors or in the garden. I hated being at Nanas on wash day - I preferred baking day :-)
Looking at some of the plants that remain next to the house, that must have been a very nice garden too once.
this house is in better shape then my home were is this house so i can move in and its looks likes it in the country with no one around i love it
Wow it looks really nice and clean compared to most abandoned houses.
this is not the usual abandoned utube house. it has no vandalism as far as i can see.
After fixing the roof & plumbing mold problems - getting the electric wiring up to code- Add paint for color, moldings- new kitchen /bath rm. ( of course big time fumeagation) Some other stuff-flooring- yard work -you wouldn't think it was the same house that you 1st walked into.
It could be a very nice place again. I'd make a custom kitchen counter out of a wood base- sand & shells & things- & pour in the liquid plastic with harder agent. On eighter side of sink have abit of granet. (I build doll houses-it's lots of fun)
Amazing how clean it looks.
The outbuilding was the laundry, dated long before the house was built. The copper and bath would be filled with
water from rainwater tanks. A fire would be built under copper, clothes would be added after soaping and then boiled and stirred with thick long stick, after a few hours would be lifted out using stick and placed in bath to be rinsed, wrung out and hung on clothes line. That is how everyone washed clothes back in the day Speaking from personal experience it was hard backbreaking work, a day would be designated as laundry day usually Mondays. PS The large iron tub was called a copper because they were made of copper, would be quite valuable today for scrapping. Letter 1974, the 7 obscured by the U.
i was watching it thinking omg how can you know not know that's a copper dude, came down to say that found you already did.
dawn Otoole
Grandma probably wouldn't let ya into the house after mucking; so nice to have a hot tub & laundry ...I only got a metal pail of cold water :(
dragonmaddie Maybe because he's not a scavenger?
dawn Otoole That was a great description! Thank you.
a scavenger? my gran used to have a copper in to do the washing.
This is another house that is owned by the RMS. I was going to be moving into it when I started on the project, but the RMS canned the idea because of lack of access. It was also at one stage going to be used as an office for contractors but that was canned too. A squatter was living there only a couple of months ago. When the new highway goes through it will be very close to this house, but I do believe it will be re-let for new tenants. The building behind is actually an historic abattoir.
at least it nice to see some people leave with there place pretty clean at least these people did how very nice of them
Always nice to do walk-abouts with you! I hope you're doing well. Love your vids!
I think that date was 8th of November, 2013. Explains why the place looks as good as it does.
Man I would live in that house on move-in don't have to worry about rent or a landlord just you man you know!!!!
Hi! I just wanted to say that I believe that structure with the copper pot was made for cleaning laundry! Not sure what the trough is for, but the copper pot could also be used to heat water for the home-- for baths and such.
why would u wear sandels to chk out abandoned houses ?
Hmmm have you really got a snake or spider death wish, dude wear shoes...I have a friend here in the West who has a set up like that. They murder their chooks then dip them in boiling water then cold water. Makes plucking very easy. Love your Aussie humour, enjoying your videos. Thanks for sharing
Very peaceful surroundings.
08 Nov 13 = the date. 19:14 = The time mark.
The letter was marked for postage on the 8th day of November, 2013 at 7:14PM.
Do you know how long the house has been vacant? It actually doesn't look too bad inside, quite clean. I'm more afraid of the overgrown vegetation surrounding the house! Pretty sure the letter you found is dated 8 November 2013 though I could be mistaken.
haha you crack me up.. I really like that house and how open it is with all the doors and windows to the outside.
I love watching your videos. You make me laugh every time. Plus I love looking at abandoned places.
Nov 13th, 2003. That is way more updated then 1914. Even more updated then the 90s really but def inhabited after 1914.
For future exploring, no sandals or flip flops and no shorts! You'll thank me later:)
Yes, really safe shoes for walking through weeds
I'm not surprised you got bitten.
Luv the way this fella,comes out with stuff the way he says it boss
This property would most likely have been acquired by the State Govt under compulsory acquisition laws for the new Pacific Hwy. As a result, the structures would be earmarked for demolition.
Jody Daley Shame when they do that but DON'T follow through.
...beware the wild chairs.they're untameable....I can't believe that place isn't up for sale...
Take it from ex post worker 08 Nov 2013 and the time processed 19.14Hrs
love that window in the bath!
Who wouldn't want to wake up to those views every day? Love the house and gardens. Sheds are not my thing! Perhaps someone liked to bath out side! Thanks for sharing
Hello friend it could be used for processing hogs or to make Syrup in the south we used such burners for both in off season hogs and in the winter to make cane syrup
nice videos keep up the great work.
Ram.
why aren't any body living in these places this one looked better than the previous I lived in wow!
Your channel is growing. Keep up the good work.
There's some right good exploring gear mate.. Lol..
Shorts n Flip flops. Or thongs as you guy say...
Cheers.
That place is kind of nice.
Is that traffic noise in the background ? sounds like it is close to a busy highway
What a cute house! It looks ready for someone to move in.
Vicki Noeske - major mold problems, more likely a tear down.
"Crikey a Brownie"
Famous last words of flip flop wearing Aussies in tall grass.
Kettle and trough could be used for a number of things, processing and butchering of pigs, cows, chickens, goats....kettle could be used boil boiling sugar cane or maple sap to make syrup.
oh my gosh I love this home!
November 8, 2013!
Eighth of November 2013.... Doubt they had digital printing in 1914.
November 13, 2008 was the date on envelope
the owners were horse breeders.
the small room was most likely used to separate mares in heat or expecting.
the middle forge was most likely for making horse shoes.
Yup. Agree. First building looked like a "run in" shed to protect from bad weather perhaps. We have laws here in the US where you have to have a 3 sided roofed shelter for horses out.
8th November, 2013*
Damn , wore flip-flops to a gunfight. Great video. New subscriber..
The house is nice but that road would drive me crazy. Thanks for sharing.
hey guys this house was bought out by the company doing the road bypass of Woodburn the owners sold the property and moved out it happens a lot in our area
Hope you didn't get sick from all that black mold. My guess was Nov 13th, 2008 ...just a little different than the others, but I don't know. ...(???)
12 years, very interesting
Old but clean ,thats rare! 👍🏼
wow nice home ....looks like no one has lived there
nice vid bro
thank you
Lets move in.
What a view out of that bath!
Yeah nothing poisonous in Australia, XD World Capital of most poisonous creatures on earth, I'm gonna go in abandoned homes with flip flop's and shorts on... We love your voice, talk while exploring.
Wow nice house! I'll claim it.
Curley Q Link how that work?i hear that before,,,
Why R there so mmany abandoned homes- and then the counties let them go to rot????? Sick world when people need homes
I go over you vids and think all these houses are vacant and I have been served a notice to leave my house because it's to dangerous to live in now and I find myself wondering am I going to end up living in a tent 😔😔
i had a comfortable life, but we had no assets. when my wife passed i could no longer afford the rent. i was evicted in the middle of my despair and grief. now i live in a car because i cant stand to share (rent a room) with strangers.
great house to bad about the mold
I do like your style.
Thanks for the videos. I'm with you I love exploring and leaving this just as they were found.
The date. 08 Nov 13 19:34 means year 2008 in November 13 @ 7:34 pm
Usually its the date then year in Australia, so 8th Nov 2013.
That's a old pig farm that tub is where the pigs were washed after the hair was singed off
Great video
Could be where they did laundry.
Its not to process pigs. its an old washing bay. were the water is heated by wood and the clothes are washed in the troughs.
Similar to what I was thinking only it being a bathtub because that was the original house before it was the shed.
Nice place!!!
Cant have bin abandoned for to long as its still in pretty good condition ,no mold ,its not dilapidated .although you guys may not get a lot of rain ,harsh weather so maybe thats way its looks life able .oh and the toilet still flushes,
It's a boiler to render down tallow from beef .
Wore the wrong shoes
That's a really nice bathroom
The date is interesting. I'd say 7:14 pm Nov 13/08. Obviously much prior to date of abandonment. The loo still had water in the cistern, although not full by the sound of it. I also did not hear it fill after flushing. Was there water in the pan or was it dry? Without knowing more than what was seen I'd venture that place had been abandoned 2 - 3 years.
ut and redo the bathroom, change the cupboard fronts in the kitchen and it'd
be awesome. Nice property
I like the house 🏠 it's cute 😍
House a bit dull but so clean! I agree with other comments it seems move in ready. Kitch reface, clean bath, and new carpet, it would be very nice. Lovely light and views from the windows. Pretty spot, looks like had a hobby horse set up with a run in shed. Perhaps other building for quarantined horse (in heat or sick or ready to foal). Don't know, maybe sime other type of animal but the horse shoe a good hint. Great tour! Thank you from a fan in the US. I like your channel alot!
I love the house
that's copper pot and fire pit and troth is for making moonshine whisky
Yes Heather- my opinion is when abandoned for a yr to 1-1/2 the gov should take over before the decaying takes place - if no family is found to make decisions__ I use to think no one should take things from these places but seen too much waste and now hope that things will find a second and third use
Hi Jens< Have checked out lots of your video clips and really like your work. I am looking for an abandoned country cottage to purchase and renovate preferably with land. Im an ex kiwi farmer and the concept of "The river cottage" and getting back to living off the land really pushes my buttons. I would seriously love to hear from you when you get this please mate.
Kindest regards
Murray
I tried to send you a private message but there is nothing on your page .
Maybe private message me and why would you call me jens????
Mate that back yard is tiger country. Wow that would take some upkeep!
good lard dude ,,sandles shorts ..umm docent Australia have that highest amount of the worlds most deadliest snakes? and i ask take as a Canadian.
Love it :) An urban explorer that wears 'thongs' and gets unsettled walking through tall grass. If I see that chair anywhere, I will know you did not fasten the door good :) Love the accent :)
Like if you were homeless you would squat there
The date on the envelope read '08 Nov 2013' sir!
why don't they do a bit of research on these properties and find out why there abandoned could be haunted or something happened there and that's why they leave these places
Possibly one of the cleanest places you have been in, luv. Except for the mould in the bathroom. Very pretty, the gardens must have been lovely in the day. Just a few licks of paint, some new cupboards and a machete to the weeds up to my head (or rent some goats for a day or two) and move in ready. Lol...possibly new flooring, too. Those carpets have been well trod.
Agree on that. Kinda boring house but nice spot/views even if a bit overgrown. To folks in my rural area, definitely move in ready just as is.
in america that place would have every window busted out holes in the drywall and a big "fuck you" spraypainted on the walls
Happens all too often here to mate. I’m only a new subscriber but Michael just seems to pick the un-ravaged places.
Hope there’s a special place in hell for vandals.
Ok I've seen enough closets and drawers. I like the house, tho. Looks like some black mold on the ceiling, but the interior looks to be in great shape.
November 8, 2013..duh
my first impression was the kettle was for rendering animals
before any mention of it
weird deal is that i'm a city boy& never seen or read about such a thing
Incredible find. Stay safe.
You should be wearing closed in shoes
You can legaly take ownership, if you move in change locks mow lawn look after it stay 12 years and you can take ownwership, if no one claimes it in that time, i just researched it, the mold is why no ones in there depends how much is in it ,needs to cleaned up properly. look it up. its private no one needs to knwo until 12 years.
How can it b so clean? Did not see Cobb webs or dust. Hope u remembered to close that sliding door. Thank you.
