“Rooms” with no windows normally can’t be classified as rooms, typically for fire safety reasons I believe! I think they can’t list them that way for legal purposes! But your home is STUNNING and I’m so happy for you!

[@MarySkinner]

That makes a lot of sense! I guess I’ve had shady landlords in the past because I’ve rented basement rooms with no windows to live in 🤣🤣

[@ashleyscheurman]

I cannot WAIT until the cozy hibernation vlogs in this house! Those windows in the winter! Stunning ❤️

[@lilymiklas]

The kitchen is STUNNING!!!! You and Matt got SO lucky finding a place that literally spells your name out because it’s so you! The bells make me think of Cinderella!! 🩵🩵🩵Edinburgh looks good on you. ❤️ Also, please tell me you will show us everything when your stuff arrives! 🙏🏻

[@Madibaddie7]

I am SO high maintenance with how I like to live and you’re helping me see the beauty of imperfection! The house has gorgeous character. I can’t wait to see you and Matt’s more permanent home down the line!

[@rachelpeham4800]

How sweet is your appreciation for the old features of your new home! I have seen so many influencers wanting to change and rip out things as soon as they touch base in a new space where it is absolutely not needed. You are right. That kitchen is gorgeous. Congrats on your new home!

[@theironmanchronicles]

If you have space in the backyard (a tree, a pole, etc), there's the chance to put up a clothesline! Obviously you'd have to pull it in, and hang to dry inside when it rains, but on a clothesline you get the fresh smell of the outdoors, and the wind eliminates that stiff feeling! Congratulations on your move, the house looks so cool

[@MarySkinner]

it rains so often that I didn’t think of hanging outside but maybe we could time it strategically!

[@amiegreene6811]

I know your podcast said you were struggling but girl your SMILE throughout this whole video. I'm so happy for you, I'll get better even if you miss home ❤

[@watairurcermet]

I can't wait for seasonal decor in this home ugh I'm so excited for you

[@loganalu]

My exact thoughts the entire time I watched!! 🍂

[@didisouth7486]

Those downstairs rooms are amazing! They look like old cellars, and landlords legally can’t rent rooms as bedrooms without exterior windows - it’s to try and prevent tenants having to pay for or live in bedrooms without good ventilation 😊

[@sh-fe2zn]

“It’s giving catacomb, it’s giving tomb.” I’m OBSESSED with this house! So so beautiful and historic. I’m from the States too and desperately want to move to Scotland one day, so I feel like I’m living vicariously through you!

[@kalidonnelly684]

I clicked on this video so fast! I absolutely adore your kitchen!! It has so much character and charm😍

[@feisty15]

Oh Mary. I am so happy for you. I’ve been following you for years on TikTok, and I am so happy to be along for the ride for a part of this huge milestone and life journey!!

[@evepaez-whittaker6384]

WOW what a find- this house is beautiful and so is Scotland.

[@jancarlson2165]

The kitchen....OBSESSED!!! The old sink and all the wood counters! Imagine cooking a pot roast, cutting up vegetables in that kitchen. And the floors. The stone floors. Just amazing!!! So happy for you and jealous at the same time! So much history there I'm sure. ❤❤❤❤

[@SamanthaMartinez-v5b]

Your home is beautiful!😍 I feel as if I’m living through you. I’ve never thought of living outside the country, so it’s beautiful to see that through your eyes. I’m truly so happy for you, and so so excited to see it all come together 🤍

[@micaeladalzell9039]

for the kitchen - it's a wooden hutch :) Congrats Mary, this is beautiful xx

[@sarahjones3805]

House is gorgeous!! We use a drypod (from lakeland) to dry our washing! Particularly in the winter, uses a heater / tent to dry clothes and heats the room!

[@holly8157]

I’m not sure if you’re even going to see this Mary but I wanted to type it out anyway. I just came from your latest podcast episode and I felt like I needed to tell you how positively you and your content has changed my life. Yeah, I know how that sounds and I am not one to say stuff like this but honestly. I started going to therapy for the first time in my life, started journaling, started practicing self care consistently (and not just the consumeristic kind), I’m working out again for the first time in nearly 7 years, I take better care of my body and my nutrition, I am (trying) to romanticize my daily life and I truly think it’s because of you (maybe staring down 30 and having a bad back was a factor as well.) I’m pursuing my dreams again. And I didn’t think I’d ever do that. As a girl who grew up in a highly religious environment and felt she’d never escape it (mentally or physically) I’m finally feeling like I’m okay. You’re living a lot of younger me’s dreams and I’m so happy to see you doing it. In some way, it feels like I am living them. I could go on and on, but I think the readers get the point. This feels unnecessarily sappy (and this Aquarius is not a sappy girl) but after you mentioning the comment on your podcast, I thought maybe you’d like to hear this (if you see it of course.) Thank you, from another small town girl🫶🏻 You’ve done more good than you’ll ever know.

[@jraelew]

I LOVE getting all the history behind your new home and when you show us the historical details!

[@mollyrosemcphun]

Mary I am OBSESSED. Completely obsessed!! So happy for you and so excited to see more of your Scotland content. Keep us posted as you keep decorating!!

[@rileysimmerman]

Fall and Christmas in this home will be so cozy and magical 🤍

[@TheFreckledFreak]

When you hang dry they need some sort of movement. I put a rotating fan on them to give them a little movement and it helps. It’s not as soft as when you tumble dry but better. Also if you can hanging outside with the wind moving the clothes helps too.

[@hanc.1116]

Your house is absolutely stunning!!! I am manifesting one just like it for myself🥰

[@ameliahostkoetter8638]

Seriously get a clothes line and hang your stuff outside to dry. It’ll make your clothes not feel so stiff. Have to bring that stuff inside if it’s going to rain but on a good sunny day. Love the home so much! Also not considered rooms because they don’t have windows but the game room and movie space is great:)

[@rosierosereads]

The kitchen! The basement! The stairwells! Ahhh!!! So stunning! I can’t wait to watch this house become your first Scottish home!

[@SiennaNord]

I like to shake out my clothes before and after drying & make sure I add a lil extra fabric softener when washing! Your home is gorgeous! Congratulations 🎉

[@jackiewillis5444]

That kitchen is perfect. You and Matt (and Fergus) are going to have so many meaningful moments here ❤️ congratulations, Mary! Can’t wait to see what else you share with us!

[@laurenc6851]

Can’t wait to learn more about how you brought your dog!!

[@Lizdrinkscoffee1]

Mary I’m so happy for you!! This house screams you and hopefully becomes a long lasting place of peace for you! Wishing swift delivery of your things!

[@madibeck]

this is all so 🥹🥲 seeing your updates about the move have been so special! your journey is only just beginning ❤

[@sosewscottish]

I’ve just found your channel, this house is amazing. I saw it listed for sale last year so I know where it is and the location is fantastic. You are so lucky to live there😊

[@MeganTaylor973]

So happy for you, Mary!! This house is a dream and I'm excited for your new chapter! Be gentle with yourself as you adjust ❤

[@AllyssaBurke]

I am getting choked up watching this moving series....I'm so happy for you and proud of you!!! I look up to you in a lot of ways, and to see you living your best life while still being vulnerable and feeling your feelings is so inspiring to me.

[@Geisiele]

I'm so excited for this new chapter!! 💛

[@user-cf7lh6qb7m]

You are a story teller! Thank you for sharing your journey with us ❤

[@IzzyToma]

I’m OBSESSED!!!!! It’s so stunning and I can totally see your vision, I can’t wait to see updates!

[@mkcaughlan7310]

So happy for you! ❤ excited to see what’s next, and all the other vlogs.

[@emilymartinbianco2885]

Mary, oh my gosh this house has the bones of something I could easily see in Arch digest I cannot wait to see what you do with it!

[@jaydaromine7240]

wow everything is so beautiful and unique, i love that there’s just so much character built into every part of the home

[@tommodear]

i am OBSESSED with this home and i am so excited to watch you continue to build your life here!!

[@shelbieproudfoot7608]

This house is beautiful! I cannot wait for you to show us how you make it yours

[@laurenwade291]

what a beautiful home!! you seem very happy here and i’m wishing you, matthew and fergus a beautiful life here! 🫶🏻

[@kjos7427]

Couldn’t be more excited for this vlog! Love watching you at home xx

[@ft.malina]

This is such a beautiful hom! Can't wait to see when it's all decorated

[@samanthat1074]

I’m so happy for you guys your home is gorgeous! I can’t wait to see how you decorate!

[@emily_kristina]

Congrats Mary!! The house is SO cute! Excited to see you build out the rooms.

[@sosie118]

you can always just move the clothes dryer outside if its warmer weather and it will dry quicker. i live in a smaller place so no room for a big appliance dryer, I have something called a 'dri buddi' and you put your clothes in it and it circulates warm air and drys the clothes. it can take a couple hours depending on how much you load in but its fab ive had one for 15+ years. clothes come out soft and also no risk of shrinking anything which i love!! your place looks lovely, can't wait to see it all finished up 💜

[@paigelouise26]

Christmas at your house is going to be sensational! ❤❤

[@lilya1308]

What a stunning house Mary! You mentioning launching a brand has me so excited 🤭

[@whotheeffistate7103]

So jealous & so happy for you!! Your home is absolutely stunning, can’t wait to see how you make it your own ❤️

[@Carolinee1045]

So excited to see this video pop up on my feed!!! Congratulations Mary, the house is absolutely gorgeous 🤍

[@hollyken3]

[@Mia-xi5wz]

[@unasadventures]

[@sofialongenecker5968]

[@Jenigh734]

Mary!! What a beautiful home!! Looks like something straight out of a book

[@nyrmirez]

This house is beautiful and you look so happy.

[@livbbrooke]

I'm so glad you filmed the beginning clips for our sake and yours!!! Living vicariously through you

[@helenalcantara2559]

In the back door of the living room, it would look nice to have like a bookshelf for all your books and decor and the credenza can go in the other wall

[@huhhhh5508]

i just discovered you! lol but hilarious how first 10 seconds of the vlog i said "wow scotland looks JUST like the DMV" til i saw the sign... can't wait to follow your journey!!!!

[@Ca_1021]

absolutely love the old historic charm of this home. the basement is so cool

[@heyhayhay96]

Such a stunning home! I can’t wait for more Scotland content

[@thewayiloveyou97]

Mary! This house is absolutely stunning. What a dream. The cabinet in the kitchen is called a hoosier cupboard. It’s an old baking cupboard! It’s in great shape

[@andreabetancourt3920]

I gasped when I saw the kitchen, gorgeous!! Such a beautiful home, so happy for you!!

[@TaylorElizabeth-e3m]

Oh my goodness, obsessed is an understatement. Congratulations 🎉🎉❤️❤️

[@kaitlyn_diane621]

I live in an older (for the US) flat and I love seeing you and Matt’s new (old) space in Scotland. I absolutely see the vision and cannot wait to see how it all comes together! I also hang dry my clothes, and the tip is add in a half (US) cup of vinegar to the wash. It doesn’t smell but keeps things much softer. I do stand by tumble drying sheets and towels though, just faster, helps kill any bacteria, and makes everything nice and soft.

[@Anna-Mari-ah]

You literally inspire me to travel more! Love your home it’s so cozy and has so much personality!

[@lucy-g3d]

This is so cool! I just wanted to say that your vlogs have helped me so much over the past few months due to the fact that this fall I am going to be a first year at the University of Edinburgh as an American. Its a scary feeling, but you have shed light on moving to another country that is very helpful!!

[@evelyne.u]

Your home is GORGEOUS

[@nadinemilitrano5925]

wow your home is stunning! The imperfections give such a historic charm to your home. I can totally envision all of your future plans for the space!!! girly don’t apologize for the state of your house!! when i moved last summer (i was losing my mind lol) my therapist told me it takes a minimum of two years to feel at home in a new place. ❤🏡you’re doing amazing and i’m so happy for you guys. thank you for sharing with us all!

[@famous2011blabla]

The house is a dream! So happy for you!

[@SagePatterson-qi2up]

I’m obsessed with agas slay!!! The house is beautiful. Congrats Mary ❤

[@natalieagnone2862]

I am obsessed with your house!! It was so much charm 😍

[@lexymoore3588]

That kitchen!!! A dream 😍😍

[@vavavoomxx]

Hey, Edi is amazing, hope you will love it. For the house try drumfarm antiques, it has v good deals on vintage furniture that could look pretty cool in your space. And if you generally like vintage go to Armstrongs, they have a few stores across town and it is the best vintage store - ever

[@jamiesheridan4972]

The basement is gorgeous!!!!

[@trina119]

I can’t wait to see what you do during cooler months and hibernation period 🩵

[@amxranthine]

For the games/entertainment room you should do a projector screem on the wall opposite the couch, i think it would be really cool vibes since you cant hang a tv there

[@Nadia_mcd]

The way this video made me so happy!! You look like you’re loving it, even with the Scottish weather 😅 also cannot wait to see how you style your home as time goes on, I just know I’m going to be so inspired!

[@Sharon_Cort]

There are electrical drying racks with kind of "bags" to put over them. The rack itself heats up, and the "bag" keeps the warmth in. Your clothes will dry quicker, and thus be softer. I never had one, but have seen them at friends houses. Maybe that helps!

[@MichaelaMcGrady]

Absolutely gorgeous home! Also planning to move to the UK in the next 2 years and would love to hear your experience with the move, visas, and esp your pup as I have 2 ❤️

[@emreese11]

I was counting down until my lunch break just so I could watch this video! ❤️❤️🙌🏻🎉

[@jjjjjjahhshshsh8045]

The kitchen is just dreamy 🥹

[@catewaterss]

Such a lovely house in the most lovely city! Can’t wait for more of your Edinburgh content x

[@2CoolLindz]

New follower! I loved Scotland so much when I visited there. Very excited to watch your new journey. 💕

[@juliannaf4401]

Mary this home is so beautiful congratulations :)

[@katherinef2361]

For hang drying clothes, pop a fan on next to the rack and the light wind dries things faster and stops towels getting too crispy

[@thedevdasdoc]

what a gorgeous space mary omg

[@alexandrarogo]

congrats!!

[@islandfrizz8507]

The wooden piece in the kitchen looks like a hutch! Beautiful home, congrats! ❤

[@aliciaaa2897]

So stunning!! I love the kitchen and "tomb"😅

[@jessriley6749]

Although I can imagine this is one of the hardest things to process and move through it’s also somehow at the same time such a dream. I hope you settle in and start to feel more at ease ❤️

[@gillianhill4757]

You need to buy a condenser tumble dryer which can be plugged in anywhere though preferably nearish to a sink believe me this is an essential in UK climate. Also consider getting a whirlyline as i call them outdoor drying line and dry your clothes outside when it doesn’t rain lol!

[@laurieduarte4316]

this is one of the most beautiful houses ive ever seen 🥺

[@caseymurtha]

Omg this home is amazing

[@rebeccanero1687]

Omg that kitchen is amazing 😭😭

[@jenestes2099]

Very Beautiful home absolutely stunning ❤

[@dianemassey9420]

Hi Mary 1st time I've watched you, I've subscribed straight away. The house is gorgeous, love how quirky it is. That basement wow, can't wait to see what you do with it all 😊

[@racheldina1923]

I don’t know if it’s been commented already, but the kitchen cupboard is called a Hoosier Cabinet :) my mom owns a bakery out of her home and loves decorating with/utilizing them!

[@Marie-gm1bi]

For your laundry, there is something called Soupeline in France, my mom has always hang our clothes to dry and always used this softener for the laundry, you just put it in the washing machine with the laundry soap and it should do the trick, it should be available in Scotland too
