Makes me scared already with things not being up to code...nervous and I just found your channel from a short about your ideas for your house. I'm afraid of what kind of issues you're gonna run into... I bought a unique old house when my husband died instead of just buying or building new construction! I could have gotten close to what I wanted and not ended up buying the house and then paying about the same amount to do the renovations...many of which ended up not even being possible. Always consult a builder/contractor and inspector and electrician and I mean the works when buying an older house like this!! I'm excited to see what you do with the place as well as what road blocks you come to and end up using your imagination even further bc you have to rethink your strategy! I ended up with a money pit, and wasted almost all of my inheritance from what I got from his death. I was trying to give my kids who were still pretty young a cool fun house...but in the end I ended up spending all that money and then also losing out in the 2008 market when we decided to move to be closer to family and needed to sell. I didn't even have a mortgage bc I had paid cash. But even after selling the house I couldn't recoup what I spent on it even if it hadn't been 2008. So I ended up with a mortgage once we moved, and into a smaller, much more boring home in a traditional neighborhood. Kids were ok though bc they had cousins in town and friends galore in the neighborhood. It was just always my dream to find an old unique home like this and do whatever I wanted like you! And I was too afraid to start the building process from scratch and paying rent in the meantime. In hindsight...that would have been cheaper and I would have been able to do exactly what I wanted. And I hate neighborhoods! Ha! But..in the end it was for the kids. I just wanted to be on my own small plot of land not too close but not too far apart. But definitely not where we ended up. AND definitely NOT the headache and money pit I ended up dealing with. I truly truly hope the owners who got a helluva deal on it in the end appreciate all the hard work and money that went into it. I could see the lady's face as soon as they came to view the home bc I was still packing at the time. She tried to hide her excitement but it was all over her face! Yeah lady. ..you're getting a steal...at my expense so enjoy!!! I sure hope your process is much less of a headache and a lot more enjoyable. Keeping my fingers crossed for you as I continue to watch the rest of the videos on it now.🤞❤

Wow! Such a cool, unique house! It’s almost like the universe is saying, “Emily is just killing it on everything she tackles. Let’s give her a really complex puzzle to work on for a while.” 😂 I love how quirky everything is. Nooks and crannies within nooks and crannies. Fun! Thoughts: 1. Our stairs also have no risers. But they meet code because the treads themselves are fully 3” thick. Pip could still fall through the 5” clearance/gap I suppose, but it’d be much less likely than with the treads you have now. Anyway, maybe you can adapt this idea for your needs. 2. Those airflow vents are super interesting! I do wonder about privacy in terms of sound, though. If Dylan’s watching TV while you’re filming, won’t that interfere? 3. The slanty-ceiling skylight/window shower idea is amazing! WOW!!! Very cool ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Enjoy! And again, congratulations 💐💐

Congrats you two. It's a very nice, quirky and different house. A perfect venue for your talents. My daughter bought a house at only 21 and years later when she moved out of state she rented it out with a listing agent and it was a source of income for ten years. When she finally sold it there was no longer a mortgage and she got a pile of cash. Home ownership is a great way to build wealth, especially if you are handy like you two are.

Dear Emily, I’m in NZ, an ancient mother of two offspring about your age. The fact that you managed to buy a property at your age is incredible. Here in NZ real estate is now amongst some of the most expensive in the western world. I know this is nosy, but it would be interesting to know what you paid for the property. We live in a backwater mill town. You would not get much change from $1M NZ for yours if it was here. Mostly due to the wood, architectural design, large area and out buildings. LOVE the idea of a dressing room. So sensible. Gets everything out of the bedroom. Why do men ALWAYS have yellow bathrooms? It’s their go to for fancy…I know Louvre doors are not popular, but they are excellent for clothing and linen as they allow for a circulation of air. Great video, I’m about to watch the rest ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊

You can winterize your porch by putting window plastic thick, heavy window, plastic sheets over your windows, and stapling or ceiling with tape or some kind of adhesive. It’s cheaper to do and it allows you to have your full window open in the summer for the breeze, and if you hang winter curtains on top of that screen that is going to be covered with plastic, it gets even warmer.

I would make the room at the top of the stairs the office space and make the blue camo room a spacious washroom/craft/paint room. And leave the utility room just for the machinery. And if it’s not to expense, move the electrical panel to that space. All of the woodwork is amazing. I agree with striping the beams. I would definitely take out the sliding glass doors in the interior of the home those are just nuts. If you plan to have kids those would be a huge problem/danger! Murphy beds for guests is a great idea. Best of luck with all of the changes. I would start with a structural engineer to see what is load bearing. I have a feeling he did a lot of the work on his own, so things are not up to 2024 code, like the hardwood floor and the railing.

I see you bought in the Winter (snow outside) which is what we did on our last house, in about 3 feet of snow. Zero disclosure or info given to us. We found the well was frozen & 2 pipes had been broken for a very long time which we didn't find out until Spring when we wanted to water outside & the kitchen flooded. We spent a lot of time cleaning & painting! FYI, you can NOT melt snow for carpet cleaners. lol When we moved we left the young couple notes on everything inside & out since we also lived in the woods on a river. I'll be looking forward to all your renovation vids!

the weirdest thing about the house, I think, is the double glass sliding door right at the top of the stairs, but there's definitely scope for vast improvements; all the unusual features (like the vents) might be explainable once you've lived with them for a while.

I grew up in a quirky house with additions: the wraparound porch on the west side of the house was expanded and enclosed with a brick wall. To expand the kitchen that exterior wall was removed. The back steps were covered in brick and incorporated into the lower living area. The porch area was covered in brick. There was a 1 inch step up to utility room which acted as a foyer to a bathroom and two bedrooms. The carport and garage were turned into those 2 bedrooms. They had cement floors, and built ins in the bedrooms. There was open woodwork all over the house. The main part of the house had that lightly finished woodwork and similar windows. Looking at the tour I can see how the previous owner worked on the house. You will have fun making it your own. My current house has knotty pine in the finished basement. I encourage you to live with the brick and knotty pine for a while before you decide what if anything to do with them. Our family loved the brick. The house recently sold to someone who flipped it and they painted all the brick white. Not a fan. Just think before you do anything with the brick.

Plexi as risers on the stairs would be safer and yet open for light. Short term. I would do a higher custom railing with matching design at back of steps. Which are narrow.

Your house is not "weird" it's just old and thoughtfully planned. This is a house orginally built for comfort and survival and that should be honored. Also, wood stoves are not dangerous for animals, unless the animals are particularly stupid. I grew up with a woodstove and we never had a cat or dog jump on it or bump into it. Humans and animals and fire inside a home have been together for thousands of years. Always keep whatever old fashioned thing you have that will help you survive. Always. Because, when the gas lines freezes, electricity goes out and you find out you either don't have a generator or it's frozen over too, you are going to be huddled in an ineffectual, non-wool quilt freezing to death and wishing like anything that you had kept that wood stove. Potentially.
