    Does this little house tug at my heart? Not as such. Buuuut... I could 100% picture my parents happily tucked in here while I tackle the school master's cottage next door!

    Just came across this video. The look at the school from the outside buts shivers,fear, bad ,so bad memories, our hair being pulled, a closed fist to the head, the back.the stick to our legs, ten years I did, great children to survive those schools and times back then. My father stood up for me, he was before his time, it did help,he told the teacher to stop beating us, he was lucky not to have gone to jail for speaking up.

    Maggie grateful you showed us this property. Let’s see what the auction gets. But for 2 beds, 2 bath, solid school house that has been rehabbed it’s quite good in my opinion. I wonder what is causing the damp/paint to flake off the walls at the entrance main door area.
    Many thanks for this.

Anything to get out of Australia with its heat, drought, floods, bushfires and every poisonous snake possible.I will keep dreaming, may even try praying, apparently miracles happen.This would do me just fine.

    I love this little house. Where is it??
    I would wall the kitchen from the entry, plenty big enough for functional kitchen when you gain that wall. Split large room like an Italian soggiorno with a dining table and living room furniture and close one entry from hall. Break down wall between two small rooms, make a nice bedroom, rehab the bath and close off extra bedroom & bath so not heated or rehab if needed. All inexpensive updates, mostly dyi except good heat and a/c.

      Agree, it’s my absolute pet peeve. If you want a modern house, just build or buy one! Don’t mess up the old homes as they are irreplaceable.

    • @rhymeocerous
      @rhymeocerous 2 года назад +3

      Modernisation isn't necessarily a bad thing per se. If it's done well, it can highlight & enhance the original features. This is a functional but entirely bland refurb however, with a boxy extension and pine, laminate flooring and electric storage heaters leaving it all feeling drab. Thank God the sash windows survived the purge.

    • @angelabyrne154
      @angelabyrne154 2 года назад +3

      @@rhymeocerous I agree. I think the problem lies in people (mainly builders) forgetting that buildings can be modernised sympathetically. They go for the cheapest materials a fast turnaround. There’s nothing wrong with that either, if it’s an 80s build.

    Go ahead complain. When people are refitting refurbishing their old homes. They're often ripping out the soul, the character, the charm, the history. They don't realize that what they're doing is following fashion. Something that was built 200 ,300 years ago has style, fashion is temporary. It is an art to have all today's commodities presented in style, good taste, definitely worth the time. You have a lot to complain about my good lady. The destruction that is going on right now is heartbreaking. The bones of most of these buildings are going to outlast anything done in 2022. The techniques were developed over centuries tried and proven. I'm saying" Alleluia"throughout your videos.
