Now IF they were making a video for video sake, then maybe you should track down the owner of said property, and ask. Just sayin'. Love your videos by the way. Big fan.🌹

    Wow. That was obviously a family home, with the two beds in that one bedroom, likely for kids. Looks like they started small and built on as they could. Glad there's a stove pipe, at least. I was looking for some indication they had a wood stove at some point. This is going to be so much fun to watch as you fix it up! Nice summer vacation home for the family.

    One of the things I appreciate most about your channel is that you don't candy-coat anything. You and your husband do a realistic assessment of a project. You're upfront about any assistance from family and friends (no hidden crew doing the cleanup and staging), plus you're upfront about costs, including any contributions. This builds trust, and helps those who want to undertake something similar to get basic, down-to-earth information.

    I'd keep that green glass and re install it on the new kitchen or use it on a free standing cabinet to keep a bit of what was there in your new remodel.
