roof's pretty much
[Music]
gone yeah cuz it' be bizarre to have a
lookout tower around
[Music]
here think that this could be
where this is weird cuz it's actually
underneath the crazy
[Music]
Paving so we got a little tiny trailer
here it's not that tiny actually it's
yeah it's longer than I
[Applause]
thought
[Music]
so what do you think would this
be like Ranch hands quarters
possibly not going in there though lots
of wrap
poop big time the tiles are all messed
up you don't know what's hiding under
this a lot of water damage the ceil
ceiling yeah look at the ceiling cute
little sink and then there's a bedroom
through the back yeah and a huge fridge
huh
cool next
stop look at this little suitcase oh
[Music]
wow so what do you think this is this
one there's a huge water tank close by
maybe a spot to put tractors or hay so
maybe
a a grain barn or a Feed Barn possibly I
think a Feed Barn roof's pretty much
gone now are these these are all Railway
sidings aren't they these are railroad
ties and they put Railway sidings you
know what I meant yeah well railroad
tires so yeah and
outside you've got the Corral and you've
got
feed yeah F in with concrete now yeah
would have been water and feet out here
out back perfect place to they got
electricity I'm looking around for a
date but I haven't seen
anything now this curious little
structure with all this piping around
the outside this might have been the
pump
house it had a uh
stove electricity
huh home for rats now sure
is so this is just the
Corral I found a
date May 14th
1971 so I don't know a lot about this
place it was a ranch obviously right
abandoned believe in around
the
2015 mhm dates back well that date said
71 yeah so it dates back a lot longer
than
[Music]
that polka do
building this is really strange the
theme continues all the way through to
these oh they party favors what are
those I wonder if this
was they made this into like a Wendy
house cuz you've got the paint spots all
inside and on the floor right either
that or somebody came in afterwards with
a bunch of time on their hand and extra
paint but it is really solidly built
like all the brick work and everything
this is definitely a newer addition to
the ranch not part of the original
structures no it is still
older and now this over here gosh just a
a catch
all okay there's the polka dot house and
you can see there's a bunch of wooden
remains over there and this cement
pad which leads to this I think that
this could be where they fixed Motor
Vehicles or
tractors or their
trucks possibly so they could get
underneath just for the simple fact that
it's it's in
a was definitely a building was here you
got all the foundations mhm that's my
thought anyway so another feed store
or shop tack
yeah
tack yeah again the roof is completely
just most of us laying on the
ground yeah I don't know what this room
is this is an
add-on this was the main uh the main
wall mhm this bit here is an add-on
completely different building
technique I wonder what this Tower would
have
been
I'm not sure if that was just a play pen
for the kids I thought at one point it
could have been like a a swimming pool
jump off all
right yeah cuz it'd be bizarre to have a
lookout tower around here unless he
would walk up there and look out over
the cattle that we're Grazing In This
areas May that ladder doesn't belong
there I don't think it does all right
first entrance we come to we're going to
be going into the
kitchen and the floors actually looking
to be pretty decent
shape yeah main it's a Main Kitchen yeah
traditional Farmhouse
kitchen and then you had like a little
dining area at the end yep I see that
rock wall in the distance that's cool
that's the fire place that's pretty cool
bizarre drop ceiling in
here lots of wrap hoop oh yeah treading
very lightly oh we could have come in
that way oh well so yeah I think the
dining room would have been been here
adjacent to the kitchen looking out onto
the
garden and then this would have been
their main living area look at that
fireplace and they've got rooms
or like corridors down either side right
lots of window l and a lot of light
patio right let's go down this left side
first
so seating area no washer washer dryer
yeah so that would have been the laundry
bath oh bathroom Corner
tub one of those corner shower tubs yeah
that's pretty
neat oh the toilet's off the but none of
it is busted the toilet's not shattered
neither is the tub or the Basin yeah
it's pretty clean in here really as
well maybe this would be
a mud
room that's
uh a possibility yeah cuz it it just
connects
to the the the toilet and everything so
take off your
yeah
and this has
got
yeah this is a bit of a bizarre layout
yeah this must have been some sort of
bedroom though cuz there's a little uh
wardrobe in the corner closet yeah and
then from the bedroom they've even got a
doorway onto a massive
[Music]
patio all the windows are on this side
letting all the light from this nice
covered patio the whole yard and there's
that other bedroom we walk
past we'll have to go back inside and
check this side out yeah it's kind of
skimming through the perimeter so they
had sliding doors here patio doors no
remnants of them
whatsoever so let's just
do so this is the main living area with
the fire
place this must have
been this must have been another bedroom
yeah this is that other
bedroom
and a
closet this must have been a nice hot
room back down the hallway into the
living room
again it is a really really bizarre
layout so you got two bedrooms through
there another small hallway that's air
conditioning the swamp cooler there yeah
and this would be a main bathroom and
wardrobe like an on Suite m
that that is
bizarre and the other thing that's all
the ceiling tiles that are smashed up in
here and pieces of drywall uh where they
where did they come from cuz
that's that's ceiling in the bathroom in
in here is all
intact well I wonder if this would have
been another bedroom in here like the
master and that would have been kind of
like beond Suite yep so this is the
master suite yeah I would that's what I
would say yeah I would
[Music]
agree and we're outside just to show the
scale of the yard and it's completely
enclosed with that stone
fencing it's just massive it's really
cool isn't it it is they said the house
has a bizarre layout oh hello
Tanto and you got the washing poles here
right the other one and then there's
another outdoor fire pit which is on
this side of the house mind you it's got
kind of like a wraparound porch yeah and
I guess so these were the bedrooms and
the right like the mud room area yeah oh
watch out for the lip on there the
laundry
room and then the kitchen and then
you've got right the outdoor well you
would also think it kind of makes sense
that you've got the barbecue over here
by the kitchen but what doesn't make
sense about that is there's no no door
yeah you would think there would be the
sliding glass door over here to leave
the kitchen to get out to this barbecue
this is weird cuz it's actually
underneath the crazy
Paving we call this crazy Paving in
England very hip in the 60s apparently
and then you got all this I guess this
is copper but it makes it really
pretty yeah I wonder if it makes the
food taste better
too there you go a little outdoor fire
pit could double as a
grill very
neat
