  • Hey house lover's and explorers! Today's video we take a look at one of the very last huge homes that used to be along Greenhill. Built in the 1920s the home was converted to duplex in the 1950s with extensive government accommodation units added to the sub division. Greenhill Road was a grand old strip of beautiful homes facing directly to to South Parklands but in the 1970s and 80 it was drastically commercialized with offices and businesses leaving only a few old homes standing to remind us of what used to be. Hope you all enjoy the explore, Cheers for watching 👍😁
    Initial explore found here- • Abandoned- 3 random ex...

    I just can’t understand why people want to demolish historic homes! So sad, happens all the time here in America too! Cool video mate! ❤️😢🤘👍

      Yeah it's so sad when such gorgeous homes get demolished and replaced by ugly ass modern crappy looking Appartments.

      Yes I don't understand either why Adelaide want to destroy the beautiful historical homes that they have I just don't get it I lived in Hobart Tasmania the 20 years and you just didn't go around pulling down old historic buildings evening in Melbourne in Sydney

    Another piece of history gone. It was amazingly quiet inside the bungalo seeing it was on a busy street.

    I've been to jail a few times, nothing serious but that's what that housing "project" looks like, I'd much prefer to live in the duplex as is rather than the "project" with rent and utilities paid.
    Thanks for the tour Paul!
    👍🤠

    I remember this one well. It had a rather creepy TV celebrity living in that house. The flats were also fascinating. Very Soviet style. Great explore, Paul 😍

    As always Paul, thank you for your efforts. Amazing amount of landfill from those units ... where does it all go? I hope the people who produce the clever art tagging use their skills in other art forms ... too good to simply waste their talents on building walls.

    Thank you Paul for another beautiful Bungalo home.I feel like it started out as a single home before it became a duplex.The block apartments are what we call the Projects in the states.Can't wait for the next videos.

    Hello Paul it's always sad to see another beautiful homes get torn down and they put up other homes that probably won't last half the time that whatever they put their thank you for taking us around take care love from upstate New York❤😊

  • @pattigolden1
    @pattigolden1 Před 3 měsíci +7

    I can't imagine how depressing it would have been to live in those apartments with just the painted blocklite walls, but you take what you can get.
    The bungalow is definitely confusing.

    It was definitely one beautiful, large bungalow in its time. I was thinking as soon as you walked into the foyer theres a door way missing??? That leads to a formal lounge or dinning room. Cheers for the explore👍

    I believe the bungalow started life as a 5 bed home then over the years made into a duplex to max the rental payment or for sale potential. I have lived in units like those. Thanks Paul.

    Great video it's a pity they are demolishing the bungalow and flats to make way for shoe box multi story. I used to live in a two bedroom flat on bottom floor in Brooklyn Park exactly the same layout as the units you went through. Thanks for taking me down memory lane 😅

    🌟Hi Paul, oh my gosh another beautiful home lost forever in place of ugly boxes so sad. Places that hold so much character, history and beauty lost forever and other people can’t enjoy them in the future to know what it is like to live in period homes. Thank you for the tour. ❤😊🌟x

    Once a beautiful place turned into a rental and it looks like they cheaped out on the kitchens too bad

    Hi Paul..they would have seen the largely lit ETSA building been built next door back in the day...the place had that main thoroughfare from the front doors though to the back door and window frame, with entrances bricked and plastered to the right.

    Would have been a beautiful home for a large family when built. I can imagine all the get together for holidays and such. But who ever was the owner 40 or 50 years ago doomed the house when he built the apartments in the side lot. When the village counsel approved that it sealed it's fate. Perhaps 30 or so years later the high rise apartment complex was built next door led to the home owner to split the home into two units. Which led to the high rise apartment complex on the other side, which doomed the apartments the home owner built because they were dated and worn. Within a year no one will ever remember...

    Bonjour d'Occitanie (France)
    Cette bâtisse a peu être été transformé en duplex à une époque ou les cloisons en plaque de plâtre n'était pas courante comme maintenant (je parle pour la France). Je connais des appartements ou la cloison entre appartement son en briques plus grande (ou grosse) que celles qui séparent les pièces dans l'appartement. Ce sont des appartements de fonctions pour des enseignants construits dans les années 60.
    Pour comprendre cette construction il faudrait faire un plan grossier (en signalant les bizarreries) pour retrouver la construction d'origine.
    Pour les autres bâtiments, cela me fait penser aux bâtiment qui ont été construits en France plus pour dormir que pour vivre. Ces barres ont donné une expression "Métro, boulot dodo" (transport en commun souterrain, travail, dormir) comme s'il n'y avait que cela dans la vie. Que la première restait même transformé un logement à vivre

    Those apartments are like what we would call welfare housing in the past but now it’s low income housing. In some of the bigger cities they were the projects. If they were privately owned they would have landlords that didn’t care much about anything but collecting the rent. Very plain and utilitarian and a sad place to live. How do you decorate cinder blocks? You certainly can’t nail into it.

      I have wondered that myself watching so many houses on this channel. I'm in NSW & have only lived in 2 houses with concrete foundations, house plonked on concrete. Both of them had damp problems, 1 of them had funnelweb spiders that wandered in downstairs when it rained. Nasty dangerous things with big fangs that can kill ya. Mostly I've lived in houses up off the ground like most in my area.
