Before watching this I considered myself a very handy guy, capable of taking on lots of home projects. After watching this - my projects are the equivalent of changing a lightbulb. Amazing work - thanks for sharing.
I didn't think that I'd watch an entire hour of a house renovation, having watched several renovations videos lately. But damn, this hooked me immediately. The filming, the editing, the commentary, the right ammount of footage to not make it tedious to watch. And the house ended up looking beautiful, with every detail. As an architect, I truly loved it. Congratulations and now it's time to enjoy it. Greetings from Argentina.
this was the best diy restore of an old building (any building actually) I've seen. The running commentary, editing and filming were spot on. Really enjoyed it. Thank you and enjoy your new home for years to come :)
It’s amazing to see someone choose to breathe new life into an old home, instead of razing it and starting over from the ground, up. Even though doing so, and doing it correctly, may have been MORE work. You did an amazing job - the house is gorgeous!
@@NateMurphy, I hope all is well! the house looks great !!! I am not too far from you, literally a village over. I am half English, half Spanish. and funnily enough my surname is also Murphy. I should note I have been coming up here for the past 24 years haha would be great to meet up at some point for a drink. I am also curios to hear your refurb story in person. kind regards Edward
@@agabrielrose ,much of the cost would be labour which he supplied himself. He recycled items found on the property and had the help of friends. Yes it required cash but the bulk of the transformation was came about by Nate’s sheer physical hard work and determination. Well done Nate you should be very proud of your house, it’s amazing!
I've renovated two houses in the last two years and unless you've ever tried to do this sort of thing it's hard to appreciate the effort and commitment needed to complete. Nate is better than me, and most of us, and i take my hat off to him. The end result is brilliant and he's gonna be proud of his achievement for the rest of his life
I bought a property in Spain not long ago that has two small ruined single story buildings. I am excited and scared of all the work involved but after watching this and seeing that it just takes time and small steps at a time with a little planning and help it should be doable even to someone with no engineering or construction experience. Thanks for posting this video!
Dude, you worked sooooo incredibly hard. MASSIVE amounts of respect. You may be proud of your wonderful home. Loved every second of it, and I know the total editing is a job on itself. Taught us a lot, many thanks 👏🏻
I think this will be the fourth time I've watched this and am still fascinated by the amount of skill and high quality workmanship accomplished by someone with no previous experience. Stunning results.
For someone who had little or no building experience you pulled it out of the bag I love watching these better than most action films these days . Well done on what you’ve achieved hope you enjoy living in it 🙏👍
I’ve built a large house and renovated houses for each of our daughters, but I was simply overwhelmed by the scope of work Nate took on here. I think back now, “How the hell did I do all that?” As Nate says, “work hard every day and just keep moving forward.”
How complicated everything was . No skimping on creature comforts.If that house could speak what a story it could tell , and its story is far from over . What a brilliant job , and may your lives do the house justice until you are no more .❤
Dude! I am currently remodelling a 90m2 apartment in Valencia and I am just in awe at how you did this. Just amazing and an amazing amount of work. I was getting a bit overwhelmed with my project, but after seeing this, you have completely inspired me to keep going. Wonderful. Simply wonderful. Congratulations to you!
I can't imaging many earthy things more satisfying than living in a house that you breathed new life into like that with a year or perseverance and hard work!
Oh my god what an amazing results with lots of hard work into this new build, out of an old sad abandon home, I am sure your parents are so proud of you both working together with the other friends and family. One great job 💝💝💝🤗
This will now be the fourth time I've watched this from beginning to end and I'm still as amazed as I was the first time! Such a beautiful end result in the most gorgeous setting. You must be so proud.
The renovation is amazing but I really appreciate the way you recorded and compiled the story. Hope you both enjoy the fruits of your labour for many years to come.
My heart was in my mouth half the time I was watching this amazing and wonderful reno, for fear Nate was going to fall off the roof or balcony or ladder he was standing on. But no, he is sure footed, creative, hard working and persevering. What a wonderful job. Thank you for a stellar video- so great to have your thought processes as well as to see this magical transformation.
Hugely impressive undertaking! One suggestion regarding your dinning table; if you had a low, Asian style table with legless chairs it would open the interior space, and really take advantage of the view out that massive window/door. Imagine sitting at floor level over a candle lit dinner, gazing out and up at that mountain overarched by a beautiful evening sky.
Nate .... what a fantastic job you have done.!!! The views are spectacular and the home you have created is superb. I got nervous a few times watching you and your friends on the roof with no security. Well done. I loved watching this process of rebuilding and restoration.
I felt so excited and happy for you at the end of this that I had a happy tear! Thank you for documenting this experience. I can't imagine the logistics were easy, especially through Covid. You have managed to salvage a historic building, giving it soul and new life with all the modern amenities you could need, so that it will last for many generations to come. I am truly inspired and grateful you filmed this. Thank you and enjoy the fruits of your labour
What an amazing job you did! I’m so happy to relive the highlights and see the finished product. After you live in it for a full year, I hope you’ll follow up with how all your energy saving features turned out to work. Thanks so much for documenting your hard work. It’s been SUCH a pleasure to follow along!
Masterclass in commitment, tenacity, conscientiousness and the exercise of more skills than it's reasonable for one man to have. Congratulations Maestro. Have a standing ovation.
My goodness …. You are amazing in your knowledge and constant persistence through out the project ! Well done and beautiful house ! All the happiness to you and yr family !
I am blowed away. Some of the precarious heights you worked, make me hold my breath. Putting the water heater through what look like a open window-with an unstable chair and on an extension ladder working under the eves!!!!!!! I much say I am impressed. Incredible job and beautiful results. Ann from Va. USA 🇺🇸
The love and shear will you put to build this house is amazing, i have seen only few people who love to do their own things.this house is a showcase of your creativity and love, till the end of it. Hope it lasts till your grandchildren's and have them look up to you in awe
What an organised mind you have, it was great to watch you work, visualising each step as you went, it was bordering on genius. Well done on everything, and good luck with everything you do in the future. It would have been a pleasure to have been involved with a project like this. Cheers.
I've remodeled two homes by myself...but Nothing I did came close to what you did...I totally rewired one and put in a media room, laundry room and bathroom...but nothing was like what you just did. OUTSTANDING!
You two are absolutely incredible. That whole video was so inspiring for me to do more work myself. Such an amazing result in the end with a stunning home. Well done 👌
I love being reminded that you DO NOT need to be seasoned to be clever! Congratulations on a wonderful renovation . So proud of the work you have done and the way that you did it. #fullrespect
well done, you succeeded not only in renovating an old house, but also in to making a short concentration spanned person watch the whole 1 hour video without skipping a second. Lots of succes and love, from me ;)
I usually work on 120y.o. Homes and have a good understanding of building construction knowledge to make things work and be functional, but this here was a gem to watch. The pinnacle of learning and adapting to almost undoable situations which many would walk away from, and just about out of my comfort, great job on the build!
Great job!!!! Over the last 26 plus years I have redone houses, taken out the walls down to the studs, added new support beams, mudsills, done the electrical complete requiring, had plumbing and roofs replaced or redone, but dang all the times I have built or rebuilt with construction crews, the houses were modern houses, mostly from the twentieth century a few from the nineteenth century, here in Canada. The shear amount of hand work you have done is incredible!!!! Working with stone and walls that look too me be well over two hundred years old is mine blowing!!!! Once again fantastic job!!! You house is beautiful!
You did an amazing Job! Crazy how much work you put into the project. And also to make a Video of only 1 hour is definitely another accomplishment! Congrats and enjoy
So you aren't just a pretty face commentator. Awesome job. Wonderful design taste. Enjoyed watching all the actual work. When you did the solar and electrical did you have previous experience? You put so much thought into how everything would work. I hope you have a wonderful time living in your masterpiece.
Yes, "it's looking like a house." I love how you modernized the whole house. It's incredible work! Now you can sleep for a whole year and you more than deserve it.
modernizing it was disgusting to be honest. Now it looks like any other north american home LOL. No “ancient” remnants.. Whatever, his style, not my home.
@@StatesMusic Hmmmm...I kind of disagree with you. Yes he modernized, but I think he did a good job of keeping it's old charm. If you are turning something into your permanent home, you're gonna want to make it as energy efficient as possible and sorry but, that meant quite a bit of changes were necessary. A lot of it looked like it needed to be knocked down and put back up, for safety reasons alone.
@@BreakerOneNine07 Right, thats fine, but I dont see any ancient aspects besides 20 peaking rocks, got clickbaited hard. And since when was ancient like 80-200 years old But my word choice of disgusting was an exaggeration, was just surprised lol
@@StatesMusic would you have kept all the internal walls, and had 15 small rooms instead? This was a cheap and not masterful building that would most likely have been knocked down, I was impressed they kept so much of it
Totally amazing team work, it reflects the personality of the older house blended with modern ideas and concepts. Mainly without compromising the natural and simplicity aspect with the surrounding area... Lots of hard work, for a minute I thought they were experts! #2023 ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
When you guys hauled the heavy timber for the main roof beam reminded me when I was helping build my son's house. We called in support and like you. We heaved and puffed and got it set.
Beautiful restoration and rescue of an old home ❤️ definitely a proud moment for you when you finished it, considering you weren't an expert. Well done 👏
Nate! Truly amazing talent exhibited here.....from the time and energy placed into recording // editing this video to the work produced! Thanks for sharing this with the world!
The mountain is so beautiful. You did a very good job in renovating your new house! You have so much patience emptying those old foods from the bottle.
Very impressed with all the skills you acquired during the renovation and enjoyed watching your journey through the video. If your main work ends, at least you will never go hungry with the skills you gained from this build. Just hoping that you removed all the slags from from all the welds you laid down with the stick / arc ( slag being the black crust on the weld as it cools ) as condensation can collect between the weld and slag causing it to rust over time. Only have one hair to split; Cement is a bonding component that's mixed with sand to create Mortar. Mortar bonds stone, bricks or blocks to build a wall or render and can be used as a floor screed. Cement mixed with aggregate makes concrete. Sorry but that was something that gets drummed into students at building colleges as cement wont work on its own without sand or aggregate. One thing that I didn't know about and am interested in finding out more, was the damp air extraction circulating system you installed. And I was very pleased to see you used the original roof tiles to finish the roof off, proper nice!
This has to be top 5 best renovation videos on RUclips. Well done sir and thank you for sharing your amazing work. You should be super proud of what you’ve achieved and the incredible amount of work you have put in is clearly evident in the beautiful house you have built. Bravo 👏🏽
I find it mind boggling that Nate absorbed something like a Readers Digest Handyman book and then virtually single handed was able to undertake competently so many trade skills that collectively would take years to learn and master.
I’ve watched all the individual episodes and this synopsis is awesome! You’re very talented. You could easily be a general contractor, hiring subs to do the actual work while you plan all the details and keep on plan. The place came out fantastic! The balcony and the view is undoubtedly your favorite bit. ❤️
I don't even know you but I am proud of you. You will be grateful for your home for many years and feel good about the good job you have done. God bless.
never have i watched an hour long video without skipping parts until now, it was really enjoyable watching the whole process. thank you for sharing, you’ve truly made it into a beautiful home. i can’t imagine how much money you’ll make on it.
Absolutely beautiful! Very impressive work ethic!!! I will honestly think of this video every time I think I’ve taken on a project that’s to big. Inspiring!
'.... usual life lessons that consistent work pays off, that big tasks are pretty easy if you just work hard every day and that things are not actually as complicated as they seem once you get stuck into them... also that my friends and neighbours are pretty awesome...' Great words of Inspiration +++
You and your crew are incredible... IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN'T DO, AND YOU DO IT TO PERFECTION!! YOU GUYS MOVED THAT HUGE BEAM AND OH MY. THERE WAS 2 OF US AND A TRACTOR and we had difficulty.. our beam was NO WAY NEAR THAT SIZE.... I have to say it again,, INCREDIBLE....
After seeing the fab and final walk through video, I decided to explore your work some more. Found this one. Wow. How big was this task?! Great film and video production too. Amazing achievement. Very impressed and am inspired to not be afraid to take on, what I perceive as complicated projects. Again, congratulations, you two. 😊
Amazing video, I have taken on a few projects myself and the knowledge and tools you acquire is amazing. You have done a great job on this renovation and documenting it so well. Great video..
I have loved watching this but you also gave my vertigo a run hanging of places you shouldn't be hanging. The views alone but man I am in awe. The problem with society is we have lived in a disposable world for so long that no one wants the old places. My husband and I bought a property that was a 150 years old and it only ever belonged to one family the last family members fell out so they split the house in two we bought both and it took us 13 years and a lot of searching at reclaimer yards and antique shops but we restored it. The original plan was to flip it like we have been doing but once it was finished I didn't want to leave so we settled there and started our own reclaimer yard. You are one very talented man your home is beautiful

Hi Nate! I am an interior designer, and I would like to email you. would you send your email. Thanks
@@decorlifewithyasmineseif889 its on the about page of my channel
thank you Nate. This is really inspiring
Thank you for this great lesson watched whole thing!
Before watching this I considered myself a very handy guy, capable of taking on lots of home projects. After watching this - my projects are the equivalent of changing a lightbulb. Amazing work - thanks for sharing.
LOL, I too thought the same.
THIS!!! 100%
He is quite astonishing this wiry little guy.
Hahahahaha 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And he does all this in flip flops! I’m suspicious 🤨

Greetings from Argentina.
Agreed! One of the best reno videos I’ve come across!
me too, so cosy diner time movie style, excellent
Three hooked fish not bad, great video.
Indeed! When I saw the video was just over an hour, I thought, Nah,... Then I got inexplicably caught up!
I echo the comments. I got hooked and watched the entire reno. Amazing job!
this was the best diy restore of an old building (any building actually) I've seen. The running commentary, editing and filming were spot on. Really enjoyed it. Thank you and enjoy your new home for years to come :)
Glad you liked it! Thanks!
What an awesome home❤❤
It’s amazing to see someone choose to breathe new life into an old home, instead of razing it and starting over from the ground, up. Even though doing so, and doing it correctly, may have been MORE work.
You did an amazing job - the house is gorgeous!
Thank you, yes, working with funny shapes and old stuff is an added challenge! But worth it! :)
I thought it was an old stone mud hut build 20 years ago... in a very very ancient and primitive way :/

You and me both Rob!

Damn! You''ve got some serious building skills , endurance! and lots of creativity! Great result!
This work is so underrated. better than any HGTV series. calling you a jack of all trades is simply understatement. new subscriber today.
Great video and what a stunning home you've created! Perfect filming - sensible, factual commentary with no hysteria or swearing. Well done Nate.

Just get started. It never stops. It is expensive. It's also a great hobby.

Absolutely killed this build. I love how you worked with the old building and kept key elements but gave it all the modern comfort and convenience.

Thanks man, good luck with the rest of your project!
I watched the whole thing. The dust, the wiring, holding my breath while they dangled on the roof. It's simply lovely. Enjoy!
The guy who built this house is a genius, I take my hat off to you, what a excellent job you have done
Getting that huge beam up on the top was amazing. The whole this is amazing. One of the best documented DIY videos I have ever seen. 👍🏻👍🏻
Ahh thanks Katherine! :))

Thanks!
I agree...sincerely🙂
I have nothing but respect for you sir! amazing video beautiful home and quite the monumental work you did Congratulations!
I renovated my first house when I was 25 and I have never wanted to do it again until watching this.

What a wonderful job you guys did. Congratulations! It was such a pleasure watching this renovation come along. Beautifully done! 👏
Oh my god what an amazing results with lots of hard work into this new build, out of an old sad abandon home, I am sure your parents are so proud of you both working together with the other friends and family. One great job 💝💝💝🤗

Gorgeous part of the world. Hard work pays off. Also great it blends in with the village.

Congratulations on a job well done! Beautiful home! “DIY” to a whole new level.
Nate! Truly amazing talent exhibited here.....from the time and energy placed into recording // editing this video to the work produced! Thanks for sharing this with the world!
The mountain is so beautiful. You did a very good job in renovating your new house! You have so much patience emptying those old foods from the bottle.
Well done! I especially loved the “life lessons” learned at the end. You really do learn them “again and again”.
Very impressed with all the skills you acquired during the renovation and enjoyed watching your journey through the video. If your main work ends, at least you will never go hungry with the skills you gained from this build.
Just hoping that you removed all the slags from from all the welds you laid down with the stick / arc ( slag being the black crust on the weld as it cools ) as condensation can collect between the weld and slag causing it to rust over time.
Only have one hair to split; Cement is a bonding component that's mixed with sand to create Mortar. Mortar bonds stone, bricks or blocks to build a wall or render and can be used as a floor screed. Cement mixed with aggregate makes concrete. Sorry but that was something that gets drummed into students at building colleges as cement wont work on its own without sand or aggregate.
One thing that I didn't know about and am interested in finding out more, was the damp air extraction circulating system you installed. And I was very pleased to see you used the original roof tiles to finish the roof off, proper nice!
Absolutely beautiful. Seeing this from beginning to end was a treat for the eyes. Well done young man. Well done! Great video. Thank you.
This has to be top 5 best renovation videos on RUclips. Well done sir and thank you for sharing your amazing work. You should be super proud of what you’ve achieved and the incredible amount of work you have put in is clearly evident in the beautiful house you have built. Bravo 👏🏽
thank you!!
This was the most amazing transformation I have ever seen!
Half way through the video, I was like “dude, just tear it all down and build new”! Lol
I find it mind boggling that Nate absorbed something like a Readers Digest Handyman book and then virtually single handed was able to undertake competently so many trade skills that collectively would take years to learn and master.

42:00 is not a sink...
@@Tim-57 what is it then

You criticize his work, give an example of what a pro would not do, then ask me what the item is?
Look at the time stamp.
@@Tim-57 did you read my comment, because I did ..

I’ve watched all the individual episodes and this synopsis is awesome! You’re very talented. You could easily be a general contractor, hiring subs to do the actual work while you plan all the details and keep on plan. The place came out fantastic! The balcony and the view is undoubtedly your favorite bit. ❤️
Thanks for watching and the kind comment!
I don't even know you but I am proud of you. You will be grateful for your home for many years and feel good about the good job you have done. God bless.
Kudos Nate! Huge project, coupled with the immense, continuous learning curve. Well done! Retaining the old, blending with modern.
You’ve done an amazing job! It was quite a hard job to match interior to that immaculate surroundings.
That is some 'base'. Your hard work certainly paid off and it looks like you acquired half a dozen useful skills along the way.
I tried to talk my hubby into moving to italy, he said no. But Im totally impressed and jealous that I dont have any of those skills. Amazing work.
never have i watched an hour long video without skipping parts until now, it was really enjoyable watching the whole process. thank you for sharing, you’ve truly made it into a beautiful home. i can’t imagine how much money you’ll make on it.
Absolutely beautiful! Very impressive work ethic!!! I will honestly think of this video every time I think I’ve taken on a project that’s to big. Inspiring!
'.... usual life lessons that consistent work pays off, that big tasks are pretty easy if you just work hard every day and that things are not actually as complicated as they seem once you get stuck into them... also that my friends and neighbours are pretty awesome...' Great words of Inspiration +++
You and your crew are incredible... IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN'T DO, AND YOU DO IT TO PERFECTION!! YOU GUYS MOVED THAT HUGE BEAM AND OH MY. THERE WAS 2 OF US AND A TRACTOR and we had difficulty.. our beam was NO WAY NEAR THAT SIZE.... I have to say it again,, INCREDIBLE....
thanks John!
After seeing the fab and final walk through video, I decided to explore your work some more. Found this one. Wow. How big was this task?!
Great film and video production too.
Amazing achievement. Very impressed and am inspired to not be afraid to take on, what I perceive as complicated projects.
Again, congratulations, you two. 😊
Thank you Gail! Appreciate your kind words! :)
It’s wonderful you took an old abandoned building, and through imagination, innovation, and hard work transformed it into a beautiful home. 👍🏼❤️👍🏼
A great achievement, rather good format to see work completed so quickly even if it wasn’t for you. There is nothing ‘basic’ about your work!!!
I don’t know how this video popped up in my feed but I watched the whole thing and was mesmerized! Thanks for sharing a great project! Kudos to you.
Amazing video, I have taken on a few projects myself and the knowledge and tools you acquire is amazing. You have done a great job on this renovation and documenting it so well. Great video..
Beautiful! Preserving characteristics of the original structure is the cherry on top of an amazing renovation.
Wow super cool, amazing work and so great to see older houses become new again. Well done.
I have loved watching this but you also gave my vertigo a run hanging of places you shouldn't be hanging. The views alone but man I am in awe. The problem with society is we have lived in a disposable world for so long that no one wants the old places. My husband and I bought a property that was a 150 years old and it only ever belonged to one family the last family members fell out so they split the house in two we bought both and it took us 13 years and a lot of searching at reclaimer yards and antique shops but we restored it. The original plan was to flip it like we have been doing but once it was finished I didn't want to leave so we settled there and started our own reclaimer yard. You are one very talented man your home is beautiful
