Lovey 😊
@@larraineburlison6741 Thank you. It’s proving to be a very worth while instalment!
Amazing job 😊
@@aoifel77 cheers!!
Nicely done, now just the inspection to get through!
@@tjerkvandenbos1996 cheers, yeah the dreaded inspection!
Very cool 😊👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice n toasty 🔥
@@bledleysworld hope so!! Thanks for watching and commenting - appreciated
Nice stove - looks like you need it too!
@@MindMakeoverYork thanks, yes luckily it’s not as cold as last year… yet!
Great job 👏🏻
@@sueetibbett thanks. It will make the world of difference
I had this stove, not hooked up, in my Los Angeles house for 10 years than I moved to cold, rainy Washington state and that 602 keeps me nice and cozy.
@@kinnish5267 yeah I’m a fan, definitely does its job well! Thanks for watching and commenting
Little guest house is cute.
@@MindMakeoverYork yes it’ll make a nice guest spot! Thanks again
Just re-watched to see the new place again.
@@sueetibbett thanks, every little helps. This video did particularly badly!!!
@@thenordskov maybe the title?
@ always changes
Mean bro, looks like a great project property. At least you should have more materials tk work with, but just a matter of getting the infrastructure working before winter. The tractor and lolaris would both be very useful additions if not too expensive/time consuming to fix up. The pool table and dogs should keep morale up in between grafting!
@@bs1nvl for sure. Thanks for having a look bud
Why do you call them "weird" rooms?
@@auroradeja-vu8763 odd layout
Pups are growing fast! Thanks for sharing video of the new place. Look forward to seeing it develop 😊
@@sueetibbett Thank you!
Jeg ville montert pipen opp fra ovnen og ut høyere opp på veggen, da får du mye varme fra røykrøret. I tillegg ville du da fått montert ovnen tettere til veggen og mer gulvplass (vel og merke med en brannplate bak. Nå kjører du mye av varmen rett ut til kråkene, må brenne mer ved som igjen betyr at du må bære mer ved og hogge/kjøpe mer ved.
Heats the room just fine for such a small space. The idea was to not need a fire board backing plate, hence the setup. Thanks the idea
The pool table sold it for me 😂🤣 Nice one!! Looking forward to this new journey!
@@adriaanroosza A pool table is an easy pleaser eh! Thanks bud
Looks like a fantastic project and perfect for setting up a small tourist dog-sledding company if thats your aim. Did you find it on Hemnet? Pool table (!) and they even left up the Union Jack for you in case you need some extra kindling.
@@cliffrichard5086 haha extra kindling! Yeah found in the usual haunts. Thanks bud
@@thenordskov nice, it looks great. good luck to you!
What an opportunity 😃. Exciting times indeed. Odd that it is being sold with all that stuff in it… the books…pool table.. Polaris…. Beds….. I’m sure you can make use of most of it. Like you said, a thousand things to do. 😊👍
@@TheDecompressionZone cheers, very common in Sweden to inherit things that are hassle to move!
New property is a beaut. Try it man. Would real estate fees kill you when selling old one like in USA?
@@pqtpat7734 no I wouldn’t be using a broker or agent. I’ll take a loss on it considering the work put in and brand new stove etc but it’s a small set of people that will buy an off grid project.
Wow. If that was in cork city it would probably cost about million euros, no joke. Awesome place with so many possibilities of doing to do with it. If you do the move, will you continue with the channel?
I was looking at land to buy in ireland recently. 200k for 0.5 of an acre!
@@ChrisThomas-xj4tl yeah you can’t get good plots of land there without some mega bucks eh! Plus all the broker/solicitor costs and surveys etc. Better buying wrecks that you can just rebuild yourself from scratch!! Get that Irish citizenship and buy a proper place in Sweden haha! I’ll continue with the channel even though it’s tiny and doesn’t really get any views etc. Maybe more epic projects and more large scale things will boost it up??? Who knows.
Oh and my original place is 1.5 acres for a quarter of that… time to buy a log cabin?
Looks like a nice property. The thought of retiring to some small Swedish cottage keeps creeping into the back of my mind... lot's of these small farms for sale I think, but as an American (with Swedish heritage ), not sure how possible it is... oh and the puppies are amazing!
@@shawno3681 thanks appreciated. I’m sure it’s very possible. Not totally sure of the ins and outs with visas etc but I’d expect there were would be some way?? Thanks for watching and commenting
Wow! Love it,hunni ! So much potential! Im so jealous ! Wow! Love the puppies, btw. I had a husky,1 blue eye, 1 brown eye. So happy for you! And love the idea of guest cabins! Shoot,that'd come close to paying the mortgage once you get em done! Wow! Awesome ! Missed you! Keep us updated please!
@@cyndeeh excellent thanks! Yeah I’d love a bi coloured eyed dog. I’ll keep the channel updated for sure
Awesome mate, delighted for you, looks sweet
@@watchhousemedia thanks buddy, hope your well
When I lived in a house up in Norrland, we also had the same hatch in the kitchen floor, we converted the small space into a "earth cellar" for storing products that need to be kept cool
@@pellejutterstrom awesome, yeah not a bad idea at all. Took me a while to get that hatch open! Hope your well, haven’t seen you comment for a while. All the best
@@thenordskov always looking, rarely talking 😉
@@pellejutterstrom lurking eh. Haha , all the best bud
Aw what a fabulous new place - you are going to make it just amazing. Been off line for a while - life stuff as you said! Your 3 little puppies are just adorable and they are so so lucky to have found a wonderful loving home. Looking forward to seeing your next up date - hope you get to move in before the winter. What an adventure - love it.
@@nicolarielly7679 thanks and of course no worries. I hope the time away was good for you. I hope to go there for winter but … not sure it’ll happen considering the need to put in a stove and move the whole house and farm stuff.. so what happens with the ole weather!
Nice new house and land! And yes, too many projects won’t work. Hope you find a buyer soon
@@tjerkvandenbos1996 thanks tjerk! Yeah I’m sure someone will want a log cabin project. Had a few interested parties all ready but will see how it pans out. All else fails I give up sleep!
Great project! Pups are so cute 🥰
@@MindMakeoverYork thank you
This is so awesome 😊 the new place looks amazing. So happy for you. And your 3 puppies are so beautiful.
Thanks! The space is needed!!!
woah..nice work - place is vast. Plenty to do there
Thanks, yeah plenty of scope
Awesome gaff!
Should be good!
Oh they are so adorable. Looking forward to seeing them grow .

It's going to be fun watching this develop! Such lovely dogs, I think they're gonna like their new home.

@@bledleysworld sure it’ll start to pick up. Cheers and all the best
Hands full! Will enjoy watching their progress.
@@MindMakeoverYork thanks! Yea , quite the ole hand full .
AWOO!!! Exciting stuff man! 😁
Very! Thanks for watching
So cute! Wonder how long those gremlins will last 😂.
Good question! Probably another few days???
I had a husky for 15 yrs. I miss him so much! Im so happy for you! What are their names? Their beautiful!
@@cyndeeh thank you. Björn and Gyda
@@thenordskov awwwwwwww
Perfecto ❤
@@viralfluff thanks
The chimney is low . According to the American standard, the minimum from the floor is 16 feet (4.5m). I have an old classic (rotating wheel in the door) and great satisfaction
@@jandobes8970 not the same here thankfully. It’s just been passed by an inspector etc so no worries here.
You are so delicious - a true gem! If I were a python, I would swallow you.
Nice job! Great little stove, I have a 602 CB heating my workshop, it can really throw some heat!
@@wobdeehomestead nice thanks, look forward to testing it out in full!
Smart stove. it reminds me of the one in Home Alone that Kevin's scared of 😆
@@ChrisThomasCreations haha, ye I remember the one you mean in the basement
Nice lookin bit of kit that (also big fan of shouting hellooo through wall pipes)
haha! yeah glad some gets that. Cheers and thanks for the comment
Very cool stove. Great to see it all come together. The idea to mount the stove exhaust pipe on the exterior wall is brilliant... I was wondering how on earth you would run through an interior wall....no need. Ha! Also, it's the little house, not the main house. It all makes sense now. 🙂
@@TheDecompressionZone ha aye, stove install on the main log cabin would be a tad more expensive! Had to go through the wall on the tiny house because the roof beams are too tight , making it a bit more of a task. Thanks for watching and commenting . GoPro is holding up well!
@@thenordskov Super 😊👍
It works! Well done on the install 👏🏻
@@MindMakeoverYork thanks, thanks for commenting too. Hope your well
