I will be posting a video in the next week to answer all your questions! Stay tuned!!
What a beautiful place!!!!
Are you going to make the improvements and sell???
Be great take all you do not need and auction or gift for charity
You are a GOD BLESSED
man.
I hope you will send a letter to the couple thanking them for the privilege, and the great workmanship of the property. You have to admire all that was done.❤🛐
It is so funny that you said it was like you were in the Twilight Zone because that was my first thought as you did this walk through; it is as if time completely stopped with the exception of the lone wasp dauber. You can tell this was a well-loved home so it is very sad that it was just left standing in it's perfection waiting for her owners to return. THANKFULLY, God has truly blessed you and the property for being united since you APPRECIATE the workmanship and care that was done and will honor it, I believe, by preserving what you can and updating what needs to be done. Anyway, you have found a diamond here and I can tell you know it. Good luck and I can't wait to see more!
P.S. Did this property have somebody doing maintenance for the past 10 years? There isn't an ounce of dust or spider webs even in the sheds so unless ya'll did the initial clean up before shooting this video they HAD to have someone, right? If not, that's getting a little on the creepy/unusual side LOL.
Most important to know: how much you paid for it? Just in comparison to other places that we might watched else where. And in general, good to know prices. If it's not hard, thank you.
The only reason I asked about the body of water. I like to look up what species of fish are found in certain places.And is there any chance we could see the path that the former owner built thru the marsh land. That guy must have been a engineer.
@@yugeenlighroff430 its phenomenal.. Price is what I'd like to see, too. 🙌
Good buy but I wouldn’t take down too many trees to the lake. Just take the ones down that are too close to the house. The view to the lake doesn’t have to be perfectly cleared. It’s nice to have trees as part of the landscape.
plus they help prevent erosion.
I agree. Trees are nature and I love nature. Trees break the wind, provide shade and privacy.....Trees are wonderful 😀
They obviously loved nature. Such a loss this must have been for that family
Trees are living beings, and our best hope for a livable planet. Every tree that is cut down should be felled very reluctantly.
I can’t watch this channel, unfortunately, because of the cavalier attitude re cutting trees. It’s clear the original owners had a keen appreciation for the environment, and summered in NS because of the respect they had for the landscape. It must be heartbreaking for them to see someone drive in talking about the “logs” and all the trees they’re going to cut down.
Great and sad at the same time.
Make a memorial for them on the property for their legacy.
Wow! What a find! Some sadness in that this was once someone's paradise and they were forced to abandon it for health reasons. But happiness in that you've found it and will return it to it's full glory. This is a beautiful property. Congratulations!
Wow on comments we all Use Beautiful & Paradise!!
I can just imagine how heartbroken this couple must be feeling that their home they put so much work in is gone. I'm having to give up a home that my husband and I worked on for 28 years. He passed last year, and our place is too much for me to keep up. Life so short and nothing last forever and it goes by so fast.
God be with you I have lost so many in the last two years that it sometimes feels like there are no rainbows left, but I know His promise is within one so there must be.
You’re so right! I think of the song “Don’t blink” by Kenny Chesney! “Just like that you’re 6 years old and you take nap…”😭😭😭
That's all I could think of, all the serious beautiful wood working... I just felt so sad that this was the deep end of somebody's dreams.
Hang in there! As humans we adapt! Adapt but never forget ur Husband....
Wow...that's great...I think these previous couple put so much effort and love to this property ..Its like paradise and nice place to do camping site..I think you can open this to public and welcoming them with a huge love and embrace the beauty of nature especially the view of the lake and timber land ...Yes you can cut down some other trees that obstruct the beauty of the sunrise and sunset ....Its a huge property but nevertheless you can appreciate the beauty if many trees were cutting down beside the lake ...Those previous owner are very rich people too and inverted thier money in the tools ..They are very lenient people and very private person..I can feel that they are very down to earth people so to speak..but now the transformation starting with you dear ..You are very active and hardworking person too...I can say that ypy will turn this hidden gem into a flourishing well manicure landscaping view of this hidden gem a beautiful paradise to share to your beloved one. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORKS...SO enjoying to tour your beautiful newly acquired haven...Love it
I feel so incredibly sad for the people who left everything behind when you clearly can tell that this place meant everything to them. What an incredible find and purchase, can't wait to see what you do with it!
Guard your health. Money means nothing without health.
Me too
Awesomely exciting find! I don't know the history of the owners, why they left, but what a privileged and abundant life they left behind. Days will fly by quickly in this life, then comes the day we step into life everlasting. Where will we spend eternity when we take our last breath, where will be the final journey of all journeys? Trust in Christ today, God loves you and sent His Son to make a way. Seek God with a contrite heart. Ask forgiveness for every sin past present and future. Accept Christ's finished work on the cross for your sin payment. Ask Christ to be your Lord and Savior. He is the Good Shepherd who gave His life for His sheep. He is the Lamb of God who shed His precious Blood for us. He is also our Passover Lamb. Loved this video! Dreamy boardwalk! Great earthly find, thanks so much for sharing!
Exactly how I was feeling. They obviously loved that place and spent a lot of time there.It reminds me of clearing out my Dad's garage after he died. Such an overwhelming feeling to find his tools where he put them down and never picked them up again.
But look where it is now I can imagine why they left everything Look out the window saw Bigfoot and fled
my heart goes out to that couple that had to leave everything behind.
Metoo gut renching
I agree, Windbreak trees on the Lake Front should not be cleared completely. You will appreciate them during a storm. The place reminds me of my Dad's designs and craftsmanship. Just Lovely...
My goodness what a paradise. Really sad the owners had to leave. Cant wait to see you bring it back to its former glory and bless the couple's soul.
Sad that an elderly couple's whole life just lost because of illness of one. So sad that they lost everything.
Thinking the same thing. We only have 12 acres with a log home, my husband was sick over the summer and it was all I could do to keep up with it. Scary
We don't know about their lives in Switzerland....can only imagine
@@anyat8115 likely pretty luxurious there as well.
We really never own anything we just occupy til it’s time for others to come along and enjoy what God has made,and the ones before us have cared for.
Ok. What did you pay for it?
Sorry had to ask it’s breathtaking
They didn't know their last visit was the last. That place is beautiful and obviously well cared for.
I'm so jealous. This is my dream home. I'd never leave if I lived in a place like that. Just watch the lake and feed the birds all day
What a nice place and cabin. The former owner really loved the wild life.
It’s so cool but it makes me sad too. I can’t imagine how hard it was for his wife to let go. Beautiful.
I find it hard to believe its been empty ten years...hope there are no surprises ....like people coming to holiday in the summer 😀😀😀
I really hope that the previous owners had a good life there and had time to enjoy it. Beautiful place
It would be really nice to find out if the couple had further plans for the property. Was there something more with the over water walkway?
Wow! I feel so bad for the people that left all this behind. Hopefully this magical place will be shown the same love, respect, and attention as the original family.
I love the way they built the house. I wish that all the builders would build houses that sturdy. You have done amazing work cleaning up and making the road and driveway. It looks amazing.
This place is magical…it’s almost hard to fathom how much thought, imagination and energy that went into creating something like this out of a piece of raw land…literally a large chunk of someone’s lifetime. As a senior myself my impressions of this video may be a bit different from what a younger persons would be or even what my own impressions would have been when I was younger. Now I watch this and think of how short life is…and how we can work so hard to create something but none of us have forever to enjoy the fruits of our labors. I’m sure the couple feel sad to have to walk away from something they obviously put so much time and love into. However…they must be thrilled that someone so appreciative bought it and even someone who would share the results of their labor with a wide audience of appreciative viewers. I hope whoever buys it treasures the property as much as the original creators obviously did. Prayers for the sellers who sold this gift for the next owners to enjoy.
I agree 100% ; well stated.
Was magical till he cit it to hell
Isn't that so true? So much effort into a thing, and whether the next generation loves it or not can be completely heartbreaking or entirely justifying. I've found that my children dont always love all the projects and efforts I thought were worthwhile and deserving of effort ~ and as a grandma looking back, I have to say that I'm grateful I invested mostly in my children, the projects and hobbies aside. Yes, I put hours and hours into that quilt or that doll restoration, those baby clothes....but I put decades and decades into those children and grandchildren. All I can do is hope that they will enjoy the things I put the hours into, and love what I put decades into. Different perspectives when we're older....lol... I,too, am impressed that the original owners gave up this obvious work of a lifetime for someone else to love and make memories with. If the older couple had children, it's really quite sad that the children don't want it or can't afford it, but at least here now is a young man who may raise a family up on the property and will enjoy it. Sigh.....isnt that how it works, though? The next generation always stands on the backs of their forebears, to help them get a little further along the path. It's what we did, as well. 😔😊
My husband and I built up a 40 acre homestead in Arkansas back in the 80' s, so I feel like I have a good appreçation for what this guy has bought. The amount of money in tools and appliances alone boggles my mind. Plus the cost of building roads, and all outside work,
is incredible.. and the generator!!! I just want to know how much it cost?!😳😳
@@servraghgiorsal7382 are you still in Arkansas. I live in southwest Arkansas and I love it..
This guy must’ve been some type of engineer or something with an amazing imagination. I can only imagine what kind of marriage and life they must’ve had ..incredible… not one day wasted. Boy would I love to know the history of this couple and to see this property in its original state that they created. Actually gets me emotional thinking about it. I’m 72 and Ive done well and some things but this couple must’ve had so much energy, love and respect for each other… I don’t know it’s just fun to think about their life. It makes me smile and get teary-eyed at the same time.
I would love to know the history on this family too!
They won my respect. I hope you will get your new home, Pam.
Same here also he looks so smart. Hi Pam how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
You acquired a real treasure there, Thank you for sharing it with us. Who ever own it certainly had not only imagination but an artistic feeling to put into each corner of this amazing property. I agree with some of the suggestions made to you about not taking down trees except for those that are dangerous for the house. It is absolutely beautiful to view the lake through trees and greens.
Please keep posted more videos.
Congratulations, you have an amazing property there!!! blessings
Same here , greats from the Netherlands .
What a Beautiful place! So much love and care put into it by the owners. I can only imagine what awesome memories they have taken with them. Great example of how short life is. Sending love and prayers to you and the original family. I hope you plan to fix this up and keep it for yourself and your family! Better than winning a huge lottery. Definitely at age 77 my dream. Have nothing since going through stomach cancer and a broken hip all while taking care of my husband who had dementia and had to go into a facility where he passed away 9 months later in 2021. Everything we had is gone. Live with my daughter and her husband and have a bedroom, it’s own bath and closet. Everything else is in a storage unit. These people are probably going through the same 😢 & my heart goes out to them 💔
I live in Bradenton Florida. Think you said this is Nova Scocia , I know spelling is wrong but wherever it is it is definitely one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen in my entire lifetime! God Bless🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
So true how our live is just a quick journey and not a destination! Hang in there an try to stay Positive! Hey at least now a days we can look at places like this even though we won't ever have a chance to live in one!! God bless or what ever u may believe in..Smile !
I'm a little late to the party but what a score man. That's a lifetime of hard work that guy put in. Kudos to him. Love the property!
What a beautiful place and property. Being Swiss shows me that he believed in quality and as it is custom in Europe built to last.
No matter how beautiful or valuable, you can't take it with you when you die. Even Solomon left his kingdom behind. That is a beautiful home. Prayers for the family who left it.
What a beautiful home,prayers for the people who built it.
So true
What a beautiful find. Truly a hidden gem.
I am watching this a year after your video. Omg. What a treasure. I hope you did let the original owner know how much you will treasure all his hard work. Prayers for his health. A life well lived for sure.
How much did this place sell for and was it in foreclosure that they just walked away this was a fantastic buy
The trees don't mess up the view, they are part of the view. I'd get the ones away from the house that are too close. Great buy, good luck!!
Just thin em out .
I was justvthinking how terrible the dang BANK got all that money for the lovely home he built so beautifully.
Yes they do.
All tree huggers unite! Cut down the old and useless trees to allow for new growth. The old trees have served their purpose, the roots have held the shoreline together and weathered many storms. There comes a time to replace them. Young trees grow and provide far more than an old and dying tree can do. Understand the cycle of life. Yes, I cut down trees for a living. I also plant new trees
Yes the trees need to stay they were there first!
@@meporter69Yes a "lumberjack and i don't care" around our way they have the "audacity" to call themselves "Tree surgeon's" what a gas? Lumberjack mate keep it simple chopping down tree's is what you enjoy doing same as those in demolition
Someone put a lot of time and money into that place and it was their paradise. I hope they enjoyed it IMMENSELY during their lifetime, because it's a beautiful property.
Wherever the other owners are you know they're smiling down at you for saving such a lovely home.
Bless U.
In my working life my business was restoring antique furniture,so I know the feeling that you get when making something beautiful again.I love your show. Good luck . Australia
Don't take down too many trees. You don't want it barron around the house and lake. The trees with the lake are what makes its so beautiful.
Everything on this property tells a story of a couple who love life and nature with passion. I am particularly touched by that long boardwalk over water. What a beautiful and impressive work that could only be done with love, support, and dedication. Unfortunately their children couldn’t treasure it and pass the story to their future generations but good to see that it is on good hands now. All the best!
They disappeared....
I’m sitting here watching this and just heartbroken and full of tears over this story. It’s so sad to see what appears to be an older couples life, obvious hard work, labor and history of memories just left. Especially due to health problems. As you look at all the details of the property, builds, buildings, interior and exterior as well as items there…….knowing that he is in bad health and she has obviously chosen HIM and HIS SIDE as opposed to everything they have had and created together……literally MOVES me beyond measure! I’m sorry guys but I’m broken over this! I literally want to meet this couple and just witness this amount of dedication and LOVE! THIS is a reminder of what love is suppose to be about. I am so glad this property came to y’all instead of people who would NOT be appreciative of its true value!
@@lesmarbro619 However, another viewpoint could be: they had no children, and they thoroughly enjoyed all of the time that they spent on the property. Maybe it was their labor that built the place and walks/walkways, or more than likely they hired to have it done. If this was a weekend place, you don't know what their weekday place(s) are like. Take a hint that they left everything behind, which should tell you that they were not scraping for cash. Time not spent on selling 'small' pieces was better spent doing something else. I'm glad to know that they accomplished with it what they intended.
Or that's the story they told but they were running some type of backwoods trafficking rest stop???
@@bobblack3870 If they hired to have all the work done there would be no need for the sheds full of every tool imaginable. Hired help use their own tools.
Great video! We bought an abandoned house too and started renovation! Good luck with yours!
It has been 9 months since you posted about this property. I just found it and was amazed to see the house, sheds and most of all the beauty and views of the lake. The previous owners put alot of theirselves into the property. I would love to see what you have done to it. Are you planning to post other videos of this property?
Please consider this: Only take down the tree or two that are immediately threatening the house. Just for now, leave the rest of the trees that are lakeside. Removing too many trees lakeside will not add value to the property. If you want to really increase the value to the property, create stairs down to the lake, build a dock, and a small deck down there with a small shed that can house ropes for boats, fishing rods, swim toys, lounge chairs, etc., because you won’t want to bring that stuff down to the lake every time you want to use them; you’ll want them close by and handy. But leave the trees for now. Once you cut them down, you can’t put them back very easily. I’ve been on this Earth for 60 years and grew up on lake property in Minnesota, so I know a lot about what makes a lake property valuable.
Yes. I cringed when he talked about taking down those trees. It looks better with the trees in my opinion, unless they are dead or dying.
Not only for the monetary value but for the legacy and life a mature tree symbolizes. Ten saplings cannot sustain the life that one mature tree can.
Like having old structures (boathouse) right on the lakefront and grandfathered so no set backs or DNR? I too have been on this rock for the last 60 years and grew up on a lake in central Minnesota. Lol. I totally agree with you on limiting the tree removal in and around the yard. He should mill some of the logs that will be removed to facilitate the road improvements. Will help keep the material cost down for the deck repair project. I wonder how regulated they are on lakefronts in Nova Svotia.
I live in Minnesota too, I'm almost 60 and to hear him call the trees "logs" was disheartening.
@@karynagibson05 Agreed. I was saying to myself...logs? What? Those are trees not logs. He's looking at it as purely a money maker.
This place is absolutely incredible. It’s amazing to think of the years and time they put into this place. What a find! This is a place you keep as a family legacy, it’s that special.
You hit the jackpot!! I think this property is every man’s dream.
I’m sure whoever owned this before would love to see someone enjoy it as much as they did.
Good luck.
I am absolutely in love with that property!!! Great find brother!
Magnificent property. The prior owners sure poured their hearts and souls into the property, the gardens, the walk ways, .... If I owned this property, I would definitely keep it off grid.
Keep it off-grid, I completely agree.
Yes keep it off grid. It is sad that a person buys just to change things and make a ton of money off it when they resale. If this was put on you tube in the beginning people would of fought to buy and live there as is this is just what I have been looking for. But like a neighbor fixed up a house sold it for a big profit and the new owners are tearing the inside up and doing it how they want it. The way it sounds you plan on making a huge profit and that is why the banks won't give out that kind of money for off grid some people do have the money for off grid.
@@pattymccarthy5169 if I buy it it’s mine and I’ll do what I please with it and it’s nobody’s business unless they want to chip in on the bills I work in construction and most of the time the first thing folks do when they buy a house is change things that is how they start to make it a home of their own
Me too. Beautiful. Poor guy worked his butt off every single day of his life. I just hope he took some time to rest and enjoy it.
I'd be willing to bet that the owners who built and created this amazing landscaped environment were either naturalists, artists, or writers/authors. Only a property like this makes sense to inspire, teach, learn, find one's inner spirit, and share with family and loved friends. These folks were in touch with the world around them. May it continue to do it's magic...
This is a magical treasure, I can only imagine he and she would want someone to appreciate love and respect this house, property as much as they did. This is a humbling experience for sure, give thanks for the gift that was left to you. Blessings to all.
Not given
I understand you paid for it of course. It is still a treasurer for sure. @@workplaytv
Oh my days. You are so lucky to have bought this wonderful place. I live in a little back to back house no garden in the UK. I'm so impressed with the way you want to inbrece everything. I would be able to live there happily as it is. I think the people who sold it to you. Would appreciate how you speak about the place. Just such a nice place.x
I cant even begin to describe the level of jealousy I feel looking at this property, its pretty much everything I have ever daydreamed about wanting to own myself, its an excellent find, enjoy it
It is like he died, this guy, and went to heaven.
This property is truly PARADISE! Rustic living at it's finest. 🙂 I love it as well.
you lucky dog......how much did you pay you got one hell of a good deal.... i want this .
It would be my dream house. Especially the land
What a treasure you’ve come across.
This is something you leave to your children.
Happy for you, sad for the folks you bought from.
Take care.
I'd suggest that you film this landholding and send him either the video or the photos. It obviously took tremendous effort to build, plus pride!
Please show these folks your appreciation with photos and a thank you!
Wow, what an amazing house! Beautiful & the fact that everything was left there is just incredible. Thanks for sharing!
I'm so glad that your video was suggested by RUclips. This was fascinating and you did an excellent job making the video. I'm subscribed to you now.
This property and house are absolutely beautiful! I'm sad that the people had to leave their little piece of heaven on earth though. It's so obvious how much they loved it.
I'm glad you got it and that vandals never found it. The place is in good hands with you.
I'm very impressed that you fixed the leak immediately too! Awesome!
You are my new favorite channel as of today! 😊
Makes a very strong point towards all the time and effort we put into building our dynasties and collecting crap...in the end we lose it all.
Underscores the old adage, "Ya can't take it with you."
@@01splitpea Oh, but you can! Many of these same people demand to be buried with "it"...thus the perfect opportunity for grave robbers!
You have been blessed to receive this beautiful property, including all things necessary to manage and honor the former owners’ creation. The vision, skills and craftsmanship used to build this by the prior owner is unsurpassed - the water deck alone is priceless. Gosh Please don’t overwork the site- keep more trees than you think and please relocate the rocks (which he hand picked and placed!) instead of disregarding. It’s incredibly sad that this paradise created by a family from another country has slipped away from them. If I were you, I’d get in touch with them, find out everything about their life there, for example, how It evolved, like why the water deck, where they got the beautiful canoe, who they hosted while there - why they chose that property, bird interests, and most importantly, I would ask them if there are any belongings that they would like sent to them. I would also honor the property/retreat with their name, or something related to them, out of respect. You’ve received what is a legacy - please be thoughtful and gentle in your work there.
Nice letter. Watch his second vid about it. He answers many Q.s .
Agree
Agree….it needs cleaning up but I am sure he will honour the owners vision and hard work….I am gobsmacked. I bought a run down farm…good inside but roof leaked, the house wobbled in high winds ( now re-stumped) and all I found were horse rugs, builders ladders and an old nail bag overgrown with grass among other worthless items😯
Thank you very much! Here is Bobby the previous owner. Yes, it is sad, but live goes on. Look what we do now. Visit RUclips: Marisa and Bobby / Clonmoylan Aviaries
Ok I had to subscribe so I can keep an eye on your progress, you are exactly what this country needs, brave entrepreneurs. Good luck I'll enjoy watching.
I love the video and the property! I do think it’s sad to see how much care the couple that built it put in to making sure the nature around it is preserved and remained a part of the property, then it getting all cut down. I can’t even imagine how they would feel seeing this video and watching all the trees and shrubs they tried to protect being destroyed.
I wonder if you could write the old owners and see if they have pictures of when the property was in its prime? That would be cool! I LOVE this place!
Chances are real good that those photos are there on a shelf or in a photo tote. Everything else is there. It wouldn't surprise me.
An absolutely amazing property! They must have been so very, very deeply saddened to have to leave their beloved seclusion in the wilderness. What an unbelievable job they did on that property. Just absolutely amazing. My heart is breaking for the people who had to walk away from their entire lives like they did. Do them proud.
@KMAC Radio it very sad but what i dont get is why did they leave everything behind i wonder
Thank you very much! Bobby here, the previous owner. Look what we do now. Visit RUclips: Marisa and Bobby / Clonmoylan Aviaries
Dude I love that you got this place. I am excited for you and your family. I can tell in your voice you love what you got. It's nice to know you are a hard working individual that worked your way up. God Bless and can't wait to see how you fix it all up.
Did he say about how much he paid for it? I came to look and see through the house. Beautiful 😍
l always respect and admire people who constantly looking for challenges. The feeling of success that comes afterwards is beyond anything you can imagine. God bless you.
Dude! You hit the jackpot! Honestly, couldn't have happened to a better, hard working man! Hope it stays in the family so you can enjoy it for many years to come! Best wishes!!! 🙂👍🏼
Thank you very much
@@workplaytv how do you find abandoned properties, are you just looking around on roads and talking to different people? Is there a technique here? How are you defining "abandoned?"
indeed :)
Prime fishing spot too.
@@colingallagher4848 yeah wanna know too
Fabulous!! My heart aches for the previous owners…. May this property be enjoyed and treasured by all who stay there.
What a blessing to that man's life to have everything he and his wife built to be in the hands of someone who has such a profound respect and appreciation for what was left behind❤. Hope they will know that their love language needed no translation unlike the labeled spice shelf 😉. Shalom
Congratulation for your purchase .. One thing that I noticed from so many off-gridders: initially they want to get rid of worldly riches and conduct a simple life back to the basic necessities, but then they got trapped to the same old problem only with different form where they became on-greed by collecting so many properties .. God bless !
Wow! I’m sure the couple loved that home. What a labor of love. And the walkways through the marshy areas over the water? Unbelievable!
If I were you, I would use this place as a fishing and hunting place. I would never sell this log cabin.. Have a dock and a boat. Diving board. This is paradise on earth!
This place is just crazy beautiful, well just love everything about this place. What a GREAT GIFT you lucked into.
OMG! Bet ur decision to purchase was done quickly! Absolutely awesome/ beautiful investment. You will regain all its elegance inside home and outside property. Kudos to you!! I will be happily following your channel…
Beautiful property keep the trees and trim back branches around the house. The natural setting is what makes it so spectacular.
I have a feeling it will soon be unrecognizable - and not in a good way. 😢
Congrats! You have purchased a piece of heaven on earth. How interesting it would be to know the prior owner's story. So much time and money went in to developing the property for their specific wants and needs. Please do periodic updates..would love to see the respect you're showing it. Awesome job, thanks for sharing.
Don't think he intends to keep it.
@@limboigah damn shame... that is one I wish I had the money for
Beautiful home, walkway over the water. Just a dream home. This man definitely had all he needed. You found the GEM !,,,,
Beautiful place that walkway over the swamp that's incredible I think you'll be really happy there and if you got a deal on that place you've scored big time the house is beautiful I like all that wood
You found a treasure. The property, the view, the home and all the assets, truly exceptional. You just know that the previous owners were so happy there while planning and building it, and all the love that was part of it. Thanks for sharing this video, it's well worth the time watching and to dream some too. Treat it right and enjoy it while you're young!
your great grand kids will love it keep it forever !!!!
That was truly a loved property. Everything was done with great thought . Most people might had put a pier in it to build the walkway over the water is pure madness. I know there might be a few structures that need repair but the logging of trees to manage the forest just might pay you back . One thing about you will not have to be bringing tools back and forth . Kudos to who ever built this property . I would not be changing a lot of the inside . I almost wonder if they had someone looking out for the property as sort of a caretaker.
Someone has been taking care of this property at least monthly. It is not what I would consider abandoned .
The owners might resent that statement 🤔

@@judygillespie3242 hi Judy’s I feel same thing about this home. How are you doing with your family?
wow how blessed you are to have found this.. . I would also love to know the history of this married couple God Be With Them I am soon 59 and my family would have loved to live like this for sure
Wow!! One can only dream of landing a place like this. Good for you!! Enjoy every minute of it.
Canadian living in Switzerland. I am not surprised by the care and dedication of the previous Swiss owners of this property. The organized wood shed made me laugh because that is just typisch schweizerisch. This place is magical!
Swedish that came to Canada I think he said.
@@cindywhalen5768 In the beginning he said Switzerland at about 04:07 and some time later at the spices he said they are written in the Swiss language, I saw German words there, so I guess they were from the German speaking part of Switzerland.
I had a place on a private lake..I had to let it all go everything . I was in the hospital when it sold..when I think about what I lost I really get upset..watching this video takes me back I can understand what this couple is going through. I know you appreciate it all so take good care of it all..
We have a similar story. It’s heartbreaking. I try to remember we still have what’s important but some parts of life are really tough.
WOW I love that place. Glad you bought it and will take care of it instead of letting it rot down..
Wow beautiful home, and everything that came with it all the property.A person never gets that good of buy with everything included, congratulations on ure new home.
Just discovered your channel. What a gem. My heart felt heavy, feeling bad for the elderly couple who had to give it up. So much love and care have gone into this.
It really could be move-in ready! Crazy.
Also, how lucky that it was never broken into!
Prayers for the Swiss couple!!!!
It kills me to see unoccupied homes, such as are in the rust belt, broken into and maliciously destroyed and stripped of its' useful material. This video is like an incredible dream come true. The Swiss couple had to have loads of money, but my heart breaks for them. I would love to hear their full story.
Yes, it made me feel sad for the people who had to leave it all - I hope they're okay.
@@johnprior588 As a 76 year old (which still shocks me when I say it, as it sneaked up on me), I think they got their enjoyment in creating this little bit of heaven. They know they are now too old to even maintain it. They are happy that buyer will treasure it too.
I felt so much in love with this channel, hi Kathy how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
THat is a beautiful house, but I wouldn't cut too many trees down. Nature needs the trees, and they are beautiful too.
Guess what, you can grow more trees! It’s a renewable resource!
You have found a great property with the cabin and so much more. What a blessing.
Please consider not clearing to many of the trees around the cabin. Its understandable you would want to cut down some of the trees too close to the cabin, yet part of what makes the landscape so beautiful is having the trees. You have so much to be grateful for. Remember to take time to enjoy your little bit of heaven...life is short. You have been gifted a Treasure money cannot buy.❇
I know this was 2years ago, but you are showing me my dream home. What a beautiful home. There is nothing I don't like about it. Thanks for showing me this house.
PLEASE DON’T CUT DOWN ALL THOSE TREES. It’s highly unnecessary. Except for ones that may destroy your roof and foundation.
The view is plenty gorgeous enough without culling all the trees you’re planning to do.
And if you’re planning on cutting down trees instead of turning them into mulch or firewood, why not have ‘em turned into dimensional lumber and/or slabs?
Agree, the trees close to the house is necessary, why do you have to take the other ones down. Its not respecting the previous owner or the land. So sad
@@robpiper4129 He is the current owner of the land, and he can cut down whichever trees he wants.
@@nunyabizness3890 For sure, and you are totally missing the point!
I'm clearing 80% of the land. I'm not dealing with leaves and closed views
It is called forest management. There is less risk of fires when the land is managed well.
Awesome place!! Don't get rid of all of the trees it's part of the magic. A little forest leading to a lake couldn't be more charming. People who come into a place that is Perfect all to often. Leave the trees that don't compromise the cabin. Believe me I know!!! I live on a mountain with my home surrounded with pines that are hundreds of years old mountain views and just stunning.
So amazing!! Breath taking!! You must have lots of energy!! Great get away for any family!!!
Incredible! That walkway over the water is unbelievable! What a find! I hope you have lots and lots of friends!
This is my first video I've watched of yours. From the sound of your voice, all of your excitement. I think the old man would be thrilled that you bought it. You appreciate all of the bonuses. You understand the work that needs to be done so the property is brought back to what it should be. I think you will be taking some time to enjoy it before passing it on to a new owner. I would love it, except for that driveway. I live in mn where we have all four seasons. I think you said British CANADA? So there's winter there too.
Nova Scotia
Yes I think he would be so happy
Abandoned rather then rented?
Same here, hi there how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
I don't know how i ended up here but that waterfront property is amazing. Years of meticulous planning, love and dedication have gone into the construction of that property.They obviously knew the importance of only removing trees that were absolutely necessary. The previous owners must have been an amazing couple.
I am pleasantly surprised the property had not been robbed or vandalised being left vacant for so long.
Property isn't easily accessible, otherwise, it might've been vandalized, but somehow I doubt it. Canadians just seem more respectful of people and property.
Beautiful place and property. Your very fortunate to the owners. God bless you and your family. I know you’ll take great care and bring it back to how it was or even better.
Youre
Crazy LUCKY TO SEE YOU SCORE
ON SUCH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF LOVE AND CARE
THAT WENT ON THERE , YOU SCORED IN EVERY WAY ON A 40
Acre BEAUTIFUL HOME AND SOME . You will be very busy for the next couple years working on it absolutely lovely,.yet cold area.BLEarea.BLESSED BE TO YOU
AND YOUR FAMILY🙏🙏🙏❤️🙏🙏🙏
I started to feel so emotional when I saw the love that has gone into this property and then incredibly sad for all the things left behind. I’m looking forward to seeing what you do with this amazing find I know that you have respect for them and their possessions. They obviously were very knowledgable and talented.
I was having the same reaction. While I'm happy for you @workplaytv, and amazed that you found this incredible investment opportunity, I am deeply sadened thinking about the circumstances in which this property was abandoned. I can only assume these people are no longer alive, and I'm left wondering if there were no other people in their lives that would have inherited this property from them. This has all the signs that these people went out one day with every intention of returning, but didn't for whatever reason. The thought of that is ripping me apart right now.
They left behind all the things ........I can imagin they must lived with compassionaly sightsee and beautiful of life ......it's so sad they all left those properties thank you for sharing this .
I was especially struck by how compatible this couple had to be; their primary residence was in Switzerland so I imagine they visited this property for weeks or months at a time.
Being this isolated with one other person would require real peace with themselves and each other and a tremendous amount of respect. It wouldn't matter how much you loved your other, love alone wouldn't be enough.
Me too.
Me too. Feel like crying. So sad. But such tender loving care went into this home. Just amazingly beautiful place. Like an over grown doll house .
Wonder what their home looks like that they live in now? Sweden is a beautiful country & think their home is equally beautiful. Prayers for their health 🙏💕🙏
I've seen a few videos of abandoned homes. Explomo even showed an abandoned TOWN. But THIS home was built with care, maintained with care, lived in with care. It's interesting to see what others have left behind, but I often wondered "What if someone BOUGHT this place or that place, and made something of it?" With this one, you have a pretty good idea what the original owner had planned, and it's great you got it with the idea of restoration.
I watch Explomo as well, & have often wondered the same thing....its nice to see a property actually get a chance to come back to life.
It needs no restoring. It's in greaT shape!
Amazing! You got a deal, with a lot of work, but well worth the effort. So beautiful!
This is amazing, but also really sad. That couple obviously took a lot of pride in that place and it’s bittersweet that the guy never got to enjoy it again. Take care of it! It’s beautiful. It kind or reminds you that possessions aren’t so important.
This is my paradise. The workmanship everywhere and that walkway on water are just amazing. Every step you took, I was just desperate to see more.
Can you imagine having to walk away from this, all the sweat and tears that went into creating this wonderful piece of heaven......the memories, the waking up every morning to that fabulous view and feeling so blessed to call it home.
I hope that wherever the previous owners are now, that they're happy and their memories of this place stay with them forever.
Thank you very much! Here is Bobby the previous owner. Look what we do now. Visit RUclips: Marisa and Bobby / Clonmoylan Aviaries
@@birdwoman.Birdman such a beautiful home. What types of flowers grew in the beautiful flower boxes? Good to know you both are well and communicating with the new owner!
@@kathysultzbaugh3858 Hi, in the big garden there is about 1500 Lilies and in the boxes I made was always annuals. In the star shape was in every part a other color. Did you see what we do now? Visit RUclips: Marisa and Bobby / Clonmoylan Aviaries. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪☘️
@@birdwoman.Birdman o
How do you find abandoned property...tax sale..etc. Beautiful!!
Great reminder of life for all of us with , short years and at the end it really doesn’t matter .All of the items owned and built ,Life ends .
For these people that owned all of this it came to an end as they gotten old .
This gentleman will bring it back to a better living for someone else to enjoy till they get old .
Wonderful video
Beautiful home would love to live there
What a remarkable couple to build this oasis, respect and love what they did, this is a special gift!
It must have been just beautiful in it’s time .looks wonderful ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I think you got quite the deal. Good on you
This is the most unbelievable real estate purchase I ever seen in my life! You hit the freaking jackpot. You're the perfect person to have acquired this amazing property because you appreciate it and you're capable of doing the required projects and know how to use that incredible stash of tools. My God, it's like Home Depot. While it's no doubt worth a lot of money, I hope you keep it because you will never come across anything like it, again, and the labor, hours and money put into creating all of that is worth more than anything in dollars. You bought a beautiful home, a work space and a park! It is the ultimate bug out pad. I'll ask the question everyone wants to know: how much much did you pay for this gem?
He doesn't appreciate the trees between the house and the lake.
@@brianpeck4035 I think he has plenty of trees and as he stated, some limbs are in the way. He needs to cut any that have the potential of falling on the house or outbuildings.
@@brianpeck4035 Well, when I see trees like that I think they look nice but I see a fire hazard. If One needs a buffer around the homestead when in that many trees. Some fool starts a fire and the whole place is gone.
My sentiments exactly.
@@brianpeck4035 Fire protection...
This man's entire life was spent working and creating. I doubt he was happy unless he was working. Incredible, amazing person!
Happy for you , you seem very passionate in your find it’s beautiful.
My tummy gets tickly just watching a video of that place, I can't even imagine the incredible feeling of owning it. I bet they hated to let it go like that but you hit the jackpot with it.
It would be fascinating to learn more about the family that built that astonishing property.
You’re right,hi there Donna how are you doing with your family I do hope you’re safe from the virus?
The trees hold the land together, so I wouldn't go mad taking them fully out of the ground. It's absolutely amazing, and I'm so excited for you guys 😁 I'd be sending so much love to that older couple, I mean they knew how to set up home. It's got such a lovely vibe, loads of love ☀️🥰
Agree, trees hold the land TOGETHER FOR SURE!!! My neice and her family luve un Flagstaff, AZ and it had another huge fire that wiped out many trees...last month Monsoon came resulted in HEAVY FLOWING, RAGING WATER WITH DEBRIS into the town threatening many homes...their yard was flooded plus their neighborhoods. The sandbags they all worked hard placing kept water from their home but had the rain kept up, they could have had their home and many others flooded. It is very dangerous!!!
It is beautiful and I sure hope you go easy on the trees my friend, just hate to see all those beautiful trees gutted. You sure have a wonderful place, it is absolutely a gorgeous area and home! Thanks for sharing the video my friend.
