3 MONTH ABANDONED HOUSE RENOVATION UPDATE IN TASMANIA! IT'S A WINTER WONDERLAND.

[@bushcart]

thanks for full screen view....... much more enjoyable to watch😘

[@serenepeacefulrelaxingmusi3874]

This is such a great series, thank you for showing us around and letting us see how to make a beautiful home from an abandoned house. I truly hope more abandoned homes are rescued around the world to provide comfortable homes for families. 😀

[@marianneellman1139]

Oh and l must say! The view out the window of those gum trees .👌just brilliant, the view would never get old.❤

[@auntie44m]

Having an ensuite in a home of this vintage is a huge bonus. So glad you’ve installed new plaster, an instant lift to an old home and hopefully no hidey holes for rats.

[@heatherhoward2513]

Lots of light in the place, and great views.

[@annieclaire2348]

Wow! So much work done! Terrific seeing the house transforming so fast! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

How exciting Taddy 😃 I've just watched all your videos so far and i had butterflies in my belly walking through your home and seeing all your progress. You and your step dad have done a great job so far and i cant wait to see you next update 🥰 keep up the great work mate 👍

Stumbled across your video's....wasn't something l thought l would like! But l love it...❤ Seeing something old being be brought back to life is truly satisfying. Will be following with baited breath.👏👏 Thank you for taking the time to make it.... Fantastic job! Well done you!...

Enjoying your progress. Good to see items reused.

[@davemurray6212]

I am enjoying watching your achievements with the place you bought. Keep the updates coming.

[@b3autifullife]

Loving your monthly videos. Prefer these kind of videos oposed to daily videos that some people do as we can see the progress better over a longer time span if you know what I mean. Its looking fantastic and cant wait to see the end result.

Awesome, thank you!

Looks like a fair bit of work done, keep it up. I'm looking forward to the next installment.

Beautiful job and great that you have taken an abandoned property on with such a housing shortage in Tassie right now. I'm currently living in a housing property right now but hoping to be able to do this myself one day

[@Oddone64]

As a retired carpenter I’m enjoying the vids for 2 reasons. 1. I’d have a ball doing a reno like that. 2. It’s in Tassie, love the place. 👍🍻

Really enjoying watching the progress. You know that a fridge shouldn't be next to a stove or oven it can affect the refrigeration.

[@taddy83]

@@priscillagoulding1169 limited for wall space and access to electrics so no other choice, it is rather an old wives tail also with modern refridgerators and ovens. There will also be a dividing wall panel between them. The last house i lived in had exactly the same setup and was a 1980's kitchen. It was never an issue.

[@julieg6383]

Nice one. I like your solution to the doors to the study and guest bedroom!

[@premmens]

Well done, you have really taken the views into account with the window sizes..and you have done so much in a short time. Do you think you will put a small verandah under the dining room window coming from the front door?

[@taddy83]

Yes there will eventually be a small deck go along the front entrance and dining room.

[@stevenkaskus6173]

Your newer front door looks very nice, the bedroom access is what I see alot in homes here in the STATES but I'm reserving My thoughts at this time on the kitchen and now breakfast room space. Glad you decided to not put a sliding door in the dining area a close off the front door.

[@Char-lei]

That view is beyond amazing and so is what youve done with the house! I wish I had even the snallest of renovation skills but sadly I do not. Ive enjoyed all your reno videos and looking forward to seeing the final product of all your hard work 😊

[@chrismc1975]

I said it on your last video, but insulation makes a huge difference! Also great to see you've moved your phone around! You've made a lot of progress, I made a comment last night on your previous video about the bedroom not coming off the lounge and you've done exactly what I was thinking.

[@mrspickle8285]

Moving the door and closing off the hall to the dinning room instantly made your living room so much bigger even if only visually. Love the solution for that bedroom door too. All the plaster looks great... Will you keep the wood stove in the bedroom? Or is that one the one moving to the lounge room? The front door looks so nice and perfect for the house and area.

[@taddy83]

@@mrspickle8285 thanks! The wood heating will be relocated from the new master bedroom to the new lounge area. Has been a bit wet and cold here of late to have a gaping hole in the roof and to be without heating. Need to keep it burning to help plaster work and glues etc to dry. When there is a weather break it will get moved.

Hey there..i just found your channel two days ago..congratulations on the house... its going to look amazing when you are finished with it.. i wanted to ask how did you come across the abandoned house to.buy it.. im wanting to move to tassie eventually.. and have been checking out real estate agents but having no luck yet with what iam after

[@taddy83]

I had been trying to buy something within my budget for over 3 years! I had put offers on over 13 properties over asking price and been outbid or screwed over by agents. I ended up putting a "wanted to buy" ad on gumtree and the owner contacted me about it. Initially the amoumt of work and condition turned me off and there were still legal issues that had to be dealt with on it. I tried to buy several other houses in the meantime when the owner contacted me again 12 months later and asked if still interested and that the legal stuff had been settled. I went and had another look and the views just captured me. It was a long drawn out negotiation to get to a sensible price and very difficult to get finance on a non habitable property, but i pulled off what seemed to be the impossible and bought the property with a little left in the kitty to do the essential renovations to make it liveable. It will be a long term project to do the outside works needed.

Are you insulating the outside walls as you go? that will make a big difference. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

[@taddy83]

@@catherineH4785 it was all insulated when it was replastered internally thankfully, but all the back porch area and main bathroom, even the new internal walls have been newly insulated.

@@taddy83 Thats great. We have a 1980's era Hardyplank house in Tassie, and it would be so much better in winter with some insulation in the walls. It just has some tar paper now.

Being rude here, but you really shouldn't put a fridge next to an oven, heat transfer I think.

There will be a dividing wall between the fridge and oven when the cabinetry is installed, limited with wall space and electricity access to layout the kitchen any other way.
