We show you a tour of never before seen photos sent to use of the ORIGINAL home here on our abandoned home acreage. We learned that this home is actually 122 years old! Not built in 1920. We are working on renovating this abandoned home and are learning all about it along the way!

Just a little heads up! I am 75 years old, so don't leave me hanging on all the reno too long. 😆
Deal!
Judy.love what you said 👍😁
🤣👍
Judy I am 82 and I think this all the time.
@@margaretbedwell58 Thinking I have some more years but you never know. I'm pulling for us Margaret!!!
I was like nooooooo don’t paint it it’s beautiful as is.
My thoughts too!!
I was hollering!!!! Don't!! But she didn't hear me.
😢
😥😥😥😥
Same!!
Brookside! It's simple yet elegant! Love you guys so much!!
Yes, a “Safe Haven” from the storms of life! A comfy name for this family’s home.
Is anyone else loving the view behind her? Is that a sweet little white church? Perfect picture! The stream, all the greens and the church afar! Love it
Yes absolutely love it. I was thinking exact thing that church in background is Awesome
“Captain’s Quarters” is the perfect name for the house - and the series... Beautiful ship wheel btw.
Turned out great. Definitely perfect for the Captain's house!!
I know everyone comments on "Lovely Phillip" (and I agree he is a lovely man), but I really think Elysia is the perfect match for a "Lovely Phillip"! You guys are so cute together!
I am so obsessed with you, your beautiful family, your house, your creativity and talent and your amazing life. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. :)
Awww thank m you so much made my day ❤️
Your entry is absolutely fabulous. What a major difference. Great job.
I love the way you and Philip carry on a conversation, I feel like I am right in the room and part of the conversation! 🤟🏻💜🤟🏻💜
I couldn't be more in love with your house and family! Oh, property too! Enjoying all your posts
Thanks so much!
The entry color turned out fabulous! And what fun finding about the history you are learning about your home.
I about died when you started painting that beautiful captain’s wheel but it looks gorgeous now that you are done. I’m falling more and more in love with your home.
I just love all of your upgrades and the fact that you are keeping the integrity of the house mostly intact. Love all the tin in the foyer. The colors are super clean and refreshing.
I certainly enjoyed your video today and all the LAUGHTER that came from you and Phillip. Y'all are such a delightful family. I really like the color of the wheel and how it turned out so far. I am always "ready" for the next video as soon as one has finished. Love in Jesus
It’s beautiful Elysia . “Captains Cove” as a suggestion. 🤟🏼✌🏼👍
The Captain’s Retreat...because your place is my version of heaven. You are honoring the place with everything you are doing. Makes me happy!👍
I bet that unique item for the dining room is wallpaper! Love that you are honoring the history of your new home!
Love the foyer! The color is just perfect! The wheel looks great!!
“English Manor” would be a great name for your house.
The Kitchen in he photos was perfect for the house. I was a bit uncertain when you first started to paint the wheel, but, it is your home not mine. So, if you like the wheel, that is what is important,
We should start calling Phil 'Captain English'
That actually has a great ring about it very impressive lol Captain English it is then
AWWWW, the baby porcupines are soooooooo adorable!!!!
Love how the wheel tuned out, I've mentioned before but "English Manor" is so fitting but of course what makes you guys happy!!
Wow, love it too
I was also questioning the age you were told. I have an architecture background and know that the Mansard roof is a huge give away, they were popular from about 1850-1890 after that they fell quickly out of style. The same goes for the tin on the ceiling and walls. So glad to hear you found this out because the architecture speaks for itself. Can't wait to see how you bring this place back to life!
Love the hallway reno!
I'm so glad to see you back I miss you so much 💗
The hallway is GORGEOUS 🥰
The wheel is awesome. Just love the paint color on the hallway walls. Looks amazing!
Myers-English Manor, to honor the past and the present. I love the light in the entry. It turned out beautiful. Glad to see the blessings that continue coming to you.
I KNEW it was older...so glad you found out more information. It's such a treasure of a house.
Love it!! I LOVE the color of the entryway!! I can't wait to see more!!!
name the property after the captain who built it.
I so love the beautiful, textured, metal, tile in the entry way! Gorgeous! Love the updated "Captain English" ship wheel! 🚢⚓🎡😊👍
Ours was built in 1901. We had to fix a lot after we bought it. The guy that had it before tried to do everything himself and he wasn't all that good at it.
I love that his Mom is so helpful! ♡
Loving the work you’re doing on the English Manor!
Don't mess with supernatural, if you haven't heard felt or seen anything leave it alone.
I agree totally 2 families have left that property in the past. Investigation of supernatural. Best not to mess with as there has probably been deaths in the house in past.
🥶
What an exciting thing you guys are doing. I am so interested in seeing the final renovation 😄👍
The hall looks amazing 🤩
How cool! My late husband and I bought in a house built in 1842. I wanted a new house and refused to look at this one even though it seemed wonderful from the street. My realtor offered to buy me lunch if I looked at it, so I went. I walked in, knew at once where we'd put the Christmas tree and then called my husband and said we were moving. Enjoy!
great to find this to watch
That blue gray is looking stunning. Thanks for all the inspiration.
What a perfect addition to your new home,a ships wheel!
I love the color of the walls and woodwork in your entry. Looks wonderful!
I LOVE the white distressed ships wheel. ❤️
The house is awesome! I can't wait to see what you do with it. The color in the hallway is perfect.
When the lockdown is over and you get to check out the other documents of your house, it would be great the have a collage of some of the pictures and documents you find about it. Then it could hang in the hall or dining room. Just a thought.
Love the ships wheel. I say start with the livingroom so you have a place to relax and unwind everyday.
If the house looks anything like the entryway, it will be fabulous. I've been watching every video and am in love with this house.❤
I absolutely love the blue you have chosen for the entry hall...i love seeing this house come back to life....
Your house will be fantastic can't wait for more. Glad to see your having fun while working on it 😃
I loved that colour of the wood when it was in your hallway, it so complimented the bluey grey tone on the walls.
But you always do a fantastic job with your projects so I know it will be beautiful painted.
Omg..it turned out so nice..the entry color is so beautiful..love it!! I couldn't be happier for you all..sooo exciting.. thank you for sharing! You all take care..
I'm so glad you found out the age of the house! I was one of those people who commented that I believed the house was built in 1880s or 90s. The wood work was a perfect match to my grandparents' house that was built in 1890. That is such a great find! And the ship's wheel and the information about the captain, all that is so much fun! Now you have all kinds of exploring to do to find out more about the family who originally lived in the house. Good luck!
“ENGLISH CAPTAINS QUARTERS”
Love you guys, have been watching since you launched RUclips. The wheel looks AWESOME.👍👍 Your foyer is a work of art; love, love the color!!Love your beautiful home. I am also a fan of that era. Love all things antique and collectibles. I am sure this home is going to look gorgeous just like you and your beautiful family. God Bless, stay safe and happy decorating. Can’t wait for your next vid.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕💕
Talented as you two are build your own cabinets
I love all you are doing! The ship's wheel is beautiful! I love the name Safe Haven. It is your Safe Haven for your wonderful family!
Love the blue in the foyer and the white, amazing
I loveit can’t wait to see the rest of the house you guys are so gifted 😍🙋♀️
'Captain's Quarters ' - what a great name that references the history of the house!
Your local historical society should have some information about the house if it was built in 1899. Also, if Captain Myers has descendants, they may also have information about the house and the occupants as well.
The foyer is a beautiful heritage color!🌺🌺
You do such amazing makeovers! I am loving this series!
Love this one !
The ship wheel is awesome perfect!
We're all keeping ya'll in our prayers
I visited N.S. several years ago and also found the people to be so laid back, kind and curious...love your house!
I love the ship’s wheel it’s so cool ! My friend has a cabin that she had built from things that were from her land and things that people gave her over the years and things that she just found here and there . Her back yard is literally the river and it’s beautiful there . She didn’t have electricity until recently and she’s also had a well dug and has it pumped out for her to use and she uses solar panels for her electric and she just recently had those put in and she loves it and I love it too . She named it “the healing place “ because if you have any problems that you want to either forget about or to just be alone with your thoughts it’s the perfect place for that . She welcomes all kinds of people and they love it there it’s amazing ! Y’all have done an amazing job with your home already and I’m looking forward to seeing what you have in store for the future it’s so beautiful !
Love Love Love 💕 the ships wheel ! White looks good on it !
How exciting to find out the true age of the house too !!!
Looking forward to seeing the progress as it unfolds 😊
Should be interesting to find out more about the house and the Captain. Can't wait to see the flooring!
Your home is looking great! Can't wait to see the final results😀
I and all my sisters used to clap our hands loudly all the way going down the basement stairs to warn the spiders we were coming and scare them away. 😂😂 That went on for 20 years. A family tradition! It always made Daddy laugh.
Now I clap going into the backyard at night to warn WHATEVER is out there “I’m coming out here. Vacate the zone, please!!” and The Drummer laughs.
I really like that blue and white entry! It makes a good statement!
I love the colors you picked for the hallway and stairs. Very beautiful.
That foyer is just absolutely perfect. Love the crisp white and your special blue. I want that colour! Lol
Looking good! Blessed and safe days!
Love the hall turn out beautiful, Captain's Wheel house
Love that steering wheel! Looks awesome painted white and distressed ❤️👍
I love the color on the entry walls and what you have done so far to decorate it very pretty. Cant wait till you finish that wheel and the finish product.
A male black bear can weigh up to 1,000 pounds! I’m so loving this series and the work you guys are doing!
That age of 1899 for the house makes complete sense. I recognised features from my 1902 Victorian house in London - stair design/mouldings/fireplaces etc. You should check out UK interiors magazines for inspiration as so much of London's housing stock is Victorian, so new ideas on blending styles are easy to find.
Yes please keep the decor/renovation more Victorian to the period instead of farmhouse chic(?) it’s not a farmhouse.
Captains Quarters certainly feels like what you are leaning towards. Do what make you HAPPY!! That is a great name. I live in a 1700's house and finding out the History has been amazing. Enjoy each step of the way. BTW, I loved the weathered shakes that were on the house two owners ago.
Absolute awesomeness! 👍😏👌🇨🇦🌲🐾🐾🐾💘
The wheel came out beautiful,I’m excited you guys❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was so scared you were going to turn the wheel into a coffee table 😱😂🤣
You should call the place “Porcupine Manor”
The Quarter's might be a good name for your home. Love what you do ❤️
Hi Philip & Elysia,absolutely love your foyer.The white & blue is just lovely Elysia!Have a wonderful week!!! 👏👍☺️
I love the entry. Contrast with molding is great 👍 ✌️🖖. You have a theme going. Great 👍
That wheel is so perfect!! Great job!! Love love love the entry hallway
I'm loving your channel even more. I started watching you months before the shutdown over a year ago because I was interested in your Trash to Treasure DIYs. Now I think of your new adventure with buying this old house with acres of fun for the boys as th ultimate Trash to Treasure DIY! I look forward to every update. Love the blue and white foyer and the deck too. I would start with the livingroom in my opinion. Philip had a valid point about the kitchen not being done. (BTW, as a personal side note, my husband and I were homeless for 3 and a half years when we lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, even though I worked full time and he had his retirement. We spent quite a bit of time staying in cheap motel rooms without a kitchen. We learned how to cook good meals with an electric skillet, a crockpot, a rice cooker, and a toaster. There was a microwave and a small refrigerator in most of the rooms. It saved us a ton of money to cook our own food as opposed to eating fastfood out of convenience. I'm sure you are quite capable of making great meals without a full kitchen. soon you'll have your kitchen done and back to normal.) As for a name, I like English in the name, because it's yours. Not sure which you prefer English Estate, English Manor, English Quarters, English Homestead, or something else. You deserve to have your family's name in the title. Can't wait for the next video!
Thanks for sharing.
I love the colors in the hallway. Beautiful!
Thank you! 🤗
I live for each post and love everything. Huggs
Could your view be any more amazing from your front porch... the church on the hill with the creek it is literally heaven on earth. So happy for you and your family and excited to continue to follow along on this amazing journey with all of you.
The English Manor by the Sea sounds like a good name to me. Love the Captain’s wheel. It turned out perfect! Love hearing your stories as well. Love this series so much!
You should call this home The English Hill House, because YOU rescued it, it has an amazing view being on the most beautiful elevation, and the name just trips off the tongue
I really like that name. Good idea!
Love the color of the entry!
I love the color blue you decided on.
That entryway looks beautiful!
Love the history of the house you could keep a history of the house book which stays with the house - we have started one during lockdown we bought our house and were told it was built 1870s then found out it was 1801 and then the older part was actually built in 1641 (we found original drawings of the house on line) and what was amazing the family who built the original structure of oak (its still intact) the Zumpa family and then the next family bought it in the 1700s the Bretschneider's still lived in it until 1980s. The house was built under the Saxon Kingdom then it became Austrian then German then DDR and back again to Germany. Our house is Denkmalschutz a protected monument so is a labour of love and hunting original pieces to make it our home. Enjoy the process of bring your lovely house back to life.
