 |  | Abandoned farm - Santo da Serra, Madeira, Portugal
< on 1/21/2011 9:48 PM >
|  | | | The countryside is indeed filled with amazing places to explore. All thanks to good old greedy centralized policies that tends to destroy all rural landscapes in favor of urbanistic monsters (hey, we say thanks). And we are about to show you one of our most productive explorations ever. This is one classic exploration featuring an abandoned farm that was actually worth visiting. 4 km from the village center, this place is completely abandoned, or so we thought that...read on our journey...
1. The garage building.
2. Close up of a detail in the garage building
3. Garage windows. i really like this shot, not only because of the architecture, but also because of the spider web that you can see
4. Noticing from the spider webs, this place must is abandoned for years
5. spider webs
6. Spider webs II
7. Inside the garage. The spiders have been busy.
8. More spider webs
9. Photographing the debris
10. Inside of the garage. All there is is rotten wood and other useless junk
11. The main house. Beautifully eerie, isn´t it?
12. Lateral shot of the main house
13. Actually, this is the front door to the garage building
14. Back entrance to the main house. The name of the house is inscripted at a plate. A literal translation could be "pond house"
15. Three floors.
16. All the windows were tightly shut. However, we found a window that was unlocked.
17. Door to the kitchen (closed)
18. Upper shot.
19. Entrance.
20. Voila! Our passport to another dimension...
21. Inside the house, we inspected the electrical device.
22. I really liked this house. Despite being abandoned, the walls were really amazingly well preserved.
23. I think i have smelled the contents of the bottle. I believe it was a detergent.
24. Old furnace.
25. old pipes
26. We found this exactly as you see it. We were spooked, because big hammer´s and abandoned houses don´t mix too well. I don´t know why it was in there.
27. Bathroom
28. Bathroom II
29. Bathroom III
30. Very old mirror
31. Bathroom IV
32. Bathroom window
33. Very BIG spider. And also, very old lamp
34. A big living room. The floor design is really cool. And also, the furnace
35. Of course, the roof is falling appart slowly
36. Furnace close up shot
37. Door handle
38. Ceiling
39. And another furnace
40. I did opened it and i found an old phone book
41. Bathtub
42. Now, this was interesting. Homemade rural security device. This thing was strongly attached to the door, to prevent breaking in
43. Exploring the upper floor
44. Bathroom Mirror
45. Bathroom window
46. Ok. Another living room. Furnace. The floor in here was in a desolate state
47. The ceiling. Very unstable.
48. Ceiling II
49. Ceiling II
50. Shot from the outside
51. And another shot from the outside. The device you see near the wall was used to wash clothes
52. Kitchen door
53. House shot
54. Ok, this is the main front door
55. The house is guarded by goats. The most strange find we encountered so far
56. Front shot of the house
57. Near the house, a whole goat family lives there
58. Entrance to the house
59. Small stream near the house main gates
60. The entrance to the house. We had to climb the gate in order to get in. It wasn´t easy.
61. Final shot
And thats it. I really hope you have enjoyed it. We consider this expedition one of the best that we ever did.

| | | | Definitely one of the best explorations done so far.
At some point when we saw the goats for the 1st time, they started screaming and we saw mama goat running through the bushes like something out of Jurassic Park, lol
We should put a sign on the entrance saying "Beware of Goats"!

| | | | Excellent pictures.
1) That sink is awesome.
2) That toilet is also awesome.
3) That spider is less than awesome.
Oh good, my slow clap processor made it into this thing.

| | | | Great find! Very nice mansion. Surprisingly it looks like it's not trashed at all. Is it sitting in a very remote area?

Yes. There is nothing around the area, except for some houses that also looks abandoned. Probably owned by some rich emigrant that only stays there in holidays.
