Our *NEW HOME* 1950's UK Empty house tour | Exploring Northamptonshire

[@athomewithclaire]

Thankyooooo for coming in to the live chat - I am so sorry I missed many comments. I just read back through the chat Stephanie - good luck with your move sorry I missed that :( and the room could get quite warm in summer yes - I will need to work out a system.

[@mrsmiggins6435]

I love serving hatches❤️. The kitchen doesn't look 20/25 years old. It's a good house and so long as it's solid all is good. So exciting for you. Wishing you all many years of happiness

[@LiveItLikeLisa]

Oh Claire I love it so much,older homes have so much more character than cookie cutter homes. This is going to look amazing with your updates! I can not wait to watch them all. I’ve been looking forward to this video for weeks and it did not disappoint! George is absolutely amazing! And that garden is absolutely gorgeous!! Oh I’m so happy for you lady!!! How exciting!! Unpacking takes time, you will get there, don’t stress. The view from your craftroom is just beautiful!! I’d get nothing done just gazing out the window!

[@athomewithclaire]

heyyyyyyyyy bestie - omg I am so happy you loved this - so much to do - but I will absolutely take my sweet time for sure :) I just finished watching your latest videos - shopping and health update and I totally have not left comments but wanted to watch them first because I am soooooo behind on your channel :( xxx so glad to see ya back though xxx

[@loubolton9175]

I'm so happy for you and Tim, and especially for George! I know you're all going to love your new home. May God bless you in all your new endeavors!

[@TheBabz]

Ooh I thought you’d have snapped the box room for your craft room! Ahh, but the loft is much better!

[@athomewithclaire]

Ohhhh honestly the box room is half the size of my old craft room haaaa nothing would fit

[@ritarevell7195]

How exciting for you and your hubby! I bet George loves that back yard. I look forward to seeing the updates as you all reno and refurbish your new dwelling.

[@ThestuffthatSaralikes]

I. Am. Obsessed. I am DREAMING of refurbishing an old home like this… pre1930’s-1980’s have THE most amazing personality!! And UK homes are SO quaint and beautiful and unique!!! Best of luck love!!!

[@athomewithclaire]

Thankyou so much xxx I love the character of the house for sure :)

[@kathrynseaman6482]

Lovely garden George has! LOL can't wait to see you put your vision on the house, lots of stairs!

[@SkitchBean_aka_Christine_E]

Claire, it's funny, I was so happy to move from a 1950's house to one built in 1998. But I really miss the old 1950's walls. The nails are popping out from the drywall! Oh, for not having to remove the nails and replace them with screws and patch the walls 😂😂😂. But I moved into the country also. It was the best decision my hubby and I could have made. I know you will enjoy your new garden. ❤. Here's a tip... don't put in flower beds, talk about high maintenance!😂

[@athomewithclaire]

ahhhh honestly - this is my first brick house I have always lived in concrete construction - so just having a brick house is a novelty I have no idea how to hang stuff on walls - hoping it is straight forward haaaaa Also - I would have absolutely loved like a New Build dream home but wow - so so expensive here in the same breath - I craved a fireplace and character of old :)

[@rosemariediamond5948]

So happy for you. Don’t stress. After all, tomorrow is another day. It all gets done. Enjoy the journey

[@andreap609]

So happy for you Claire ❤ the house is beautiful with lots of potential, and the town is just perfection!!

[@resinAce]

Exciting times! I always have to change all the carpets when I move house. You never quite get rid of the previous owner's smell until they're all gone 👃🏻George using the hatch is hilarious 🐕🤣 My advice for the garden is to do a bit every week. Mine is a lot smaller than that but I fill the green bin every fortnight! 🌲🌳🌳

[@athomewithclaire]

Honestly Chris it was the first thing I wanted to do - in every single room - but ..... The house needs a full electrical rewire :( literally one plug socket in bedroom. Pretty much exactly like the house we sold haaaaa so I didn't want to lay new carpet throughout until that is done - and that will not be done anytime soon cos I think it is gonna be ££££££££ That is great advice on the garden - do you pay for your garden bin? it is £40 a year here - and back in Essex it was £80 - we never paid for it in Essex cos it only just came in. lol gonna obviously pay here of course

[@resinAce]

@athomewithclaire They started charging for the green bin this year. £30 for the first year then £40 after that 😪

[@athomewithclaire]

@@resinAce wow - so similar price to here - which is so crazy to think they only just started it in Essex and it went straight in at £80

[@amandasaulmon3493]

So excited for you and Tim. And George obviously LOVES his new BIIIIIGGGG Garden.

[@athomewithclaire]

Oh he absolutely loves it Amanda - every morning he is waiting by the door with his ball :) thank you so much xx

[@kristinewithak8265]

I'm so delighted for you all! Seeing you play with George in your back yard (clearly I'm American 😅) and you twirling in circles in the fresh air is precious. The town seems to be so quaint and full of charm and art. Looks perfect to me! Looking forward to seeing you make the house your home ❣️

[@athomewithclaire]

thank yoooo so much xxx

[@kazbeazley80m95]

Beautiful. Can't wait to see what you do x

[@Enjoythepour]

Actual tears of joy, for you, Tim and George. I know George is going to love living there. You will make it yours and it will be perfect for you all. I’ve never seen an outside bathroom. As a Leo, we definitely get overwhelmed and shut down, till we are ready to re-energize. It’s amazing. Cheers to your new home. We had radiator’s in my childhood home and you just completely triggered that memory! Filthy yes. Moving is one of the top 3 biggest stressors in a persons life. The good news is that you will get through it, in true Claire fashion. So happy you are filming this part!!❤ PS: you are going to have legs of steel with those steps. I miss mine!

[@athomewithclaire]

thank you so much xx Oh that is so true and definitely how I handle things - if it overwhelms me - I will absolutely shut down and allow my brain time to process what is going on

[@Pashanny824]

Congratulations Claire!

[@WendyBurtenshaw-yl2hs]

Beautiful house & garden, congrats to you both & George 😊❤

[@sudhagupta4458]

Beautiful home tour,Ms Claire 😍💜, everything there is so amazing, especially the garden and your attic 💜💜

[@glasslyn]

I am so happy for you! Thank you for sharing your journey!

[@MystLily]

Congratulations on your move and glad you got your bedroom all cleaned up and ready to go. It must have been very frustrating knowing you had to be everywhere else but at the house for your furniture and boxes to arrive. Once you have a few rooms comfortable you'll be able to sit down happily and start planning your true renovations to the house. George is so happy it made me smile seeing all that energy and that he has already checked out his whole environment including the serving door. Oh wow the area is so stunning, what a truly lovely place to move to and explore, please take us along with some of your exploring, it's amazing seeing all the old buildings and roadways. Australia has little bits of England in the big cities that go back to settlement days and I just LOVE it all.

[@athomewithclaire]

thank you so much lovely - yes absolutely - I do plan to make it as comfortable as possible for now and start planning what I will be doing for sure ! Even though the carpet is going down in the bedroom - I know it will be a temporary solution to a long term goal - I just need to get in to my own bed haaaaa I am so glad you enjoyed the area too - we cannot wait to explore more :)

[@jackiepena1541]

What a beautiful garden. 🩵🩵🩵

[@copperowlwoodturning5929]

Awesome house, Claire. 😊 you all will have a great time fixing it up and making it your own. How exciting. 😊😊😊

[@roygarcia4176]

I had to watch in segments, had the grandkids for the weekend… It is great seeing you getting settled, so sorry you weren’t well, always happens at the worst times… Your garden is just beautiful, love all the trees!! Can’t wait to see the fireplace all decorated!! You were saying that the previous owner left a load of shelves, we were given a bunch of shelves very similar, my husband used them in the garage / workshop… Great extra storage… It’s so good to see George happy and adjusting!! Him finding the pass through, he’s so clever!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@athomewithclaire]

ohhhh thank jyou so much xx yeh he is a sausage honestly - if either of us go to the kitchen he is now bashing on the door haaaa I cannot wait to decorate the fireplace literally all I wanna do haaaaaa and yes - the shelves I have here will absolutely go in to the garage at some stage - I want this room to be open and airy - I also want my ornaments and photos to be seen so I am not so sure yet how to have both - without the units. I may make shelves or another console to fit and just display a few photos and rotate

[@roygarcia4176]

@@athomewithclaire I literally ran out of room for photos and framed art, so now, I have 3-4 pictures in each frame, one in front of the other… for each season I take them down (dust them) and rotate them accordingly…. I hope that made sense… for example, I have a frame on the mantle with pics of the grandkids it has 4 pics in it, one of them last Christmas, at the beach, in Halloween costumes etc… I just rotate which pic is in the front… I do this with photos and framed prints… all of that, to say, it saves space and I get different pics all year long… apparently I get bored easily…. Lol

[@petragerbracht]

Congratulations to your new home 🏡 Happy for you ❤️

[@tonyasmith5409]

Hi Claire. I'm a real estate agent and am finding your home tour so interesting as things are very different in the USA. I like the grey carpet but would add lots of lighting to keep it bright but cozy. I'll be following your home and creative adventures and wish you the most happiness in your new home!

[@athomewithclaire]

heyyyy Tony - thank you so much :) I definitely will be adding more and better lighting. This house needs a full electrical re-wire :( so need to save £££ to get that done. Once that is done - we can do so much more I am excited :) Thank you for watching :)

It will be all ok Claire. We downsized to a 1950's house many years ago and you have to decide what you really love and keep it...everything else, donate, sell or give away. It will all work out. You got a beautiful house and garden, congratulations! Everything else will just take time.

Omg Claire that’s so beautiful 🥰🥰 the garden the area, stunning. The move must have been so hard and you have my absolute respect for dealing with everything so quickly 👏👏 I can’t see me doing it that well. And you had to leave stuff 😳😮 that must have been hard. I am going to bend your ear when it comes to me moving 🤣🤣 maybe one day 🥰

[@athomewithclaire]

heyyyyyyyy girl - omg you know what I am gonna say - leave at least AT LEAST - two weeks between exchange and completion haaaaaa the stress is real lol I really hope you get that move :) I will be here with the tips haaaaa

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

This was so fun, Claire! Thank Tim's daughter (again, I'm sure!) for doing the empty house tour for us! I hope you recover your new power washer! Those are *not cheap!* Ohhh, my gosh...all the CCC stuff is in the *_back of the garage?!?!?_* NOOOO! Oh, girl! ACK! I would've cried, too, if I had black dust all over my bedroom! UGH! Yep, that wallpaper MUST go! Can't have gluten breads (celiac), but...being American, we call them scones (long o). Found out this year, it's properly called "skons". Who knew!? I make my own clotted cream (which is long-baked heavy cream, easy-peasy!), as Americans don't seem to even know what it is, and it's to DIE for! I think the word "clotted" puts us off. 😆 I mean...clotted? Really? They couldn't have come up with a better word? LOL I put on my cream, first, THEN the jam, thankyouverymuch! Oh, that park was amazing! Thanks for the look 'round, Claire!

[@athomewithclaire]

aaaaahaaaa that is so true - I never even really thought about it but yes - not the best word ayyy ha ha All of CCC is now outside the garage - under tarp - waiting for me to build all of the units lol

[@Kera.S.]

You do know that you get to be upset about how everything has happened. Yes you are in a great position but chaos and stress is difficult and you are able to complain and even be angry at times. Let it out and feel better! 💙 Hoping for the best to come for yall and that you get settled in soon!

Lovely new home. I did feel bad for the previous owner as he was so kind to you sorting out the removers for you. If he watches he will feel bad.

[@athomewithclaire]

heyyyyyy lovely - yes it would be very sad for him - and I am sure - the people buying my house would most likely feel the same haaaa - even though I scrubbed and cleaned - another persons filth is just that. I feel like I left my house in a solid clean state but they might not haaaaa

[@vezhopkins714]

[@paulinehiggins8239]

Well from here your new carpet is tomorrow, exciting. What a great idea the cleaner was, you have enough to do when you move without worrying about the cleaning. I LOVE your yard. It’s going to be a bugger of a job getting your boxes up to the top floor, my craft stuff were the heaviest boxes we had when we moved and then up all those steps. Great house Claire, no wonder you’re excited. Don’t rush everything you’ll get it done, we were unpacking boxed 9 months later of stuff we didn’t use a lot, I think there’s still 3 boxes out there, 12 months in October since we moved. You can’t rush these things. LOL. Beautiful town mate, lucky you. Real cream, whipped, not cottage cream for me and put on however you like. Do Druids go to the stone age buildings? ❤️

[@athomewithclaire]

ohhhh I agree - I will be absolutely shattered getting everything up there for sure ! I am so tempted to hire some movers to get it all upstairs lol I fully can see us still unpacking boxes in years to come - I labelled everything with a priority label haaaa so there will be things just not opened for a long while. As for druids - I am not sure - I know those are reconstructions but I will have to familiarise myself with the druid culture and see if there is one here :)

[@paulinehiggins8239]

@@athomewithclaire. We came across some Druids when we were there for a holiday, very interesting, it was at Salisbury Hill???? They explained lots to us. Yeah being a copy maybe they wouldn’t go there, it was a true ancient spot where we were. Yeah a removalist is the go, they’d charge probably $100 an hour here in Oz but considering the problem you had getting one in the first place though, the one you did get was local. Good luck mate, enjoy your new house. Claire’s Crafty Corner will have a whole new meaning now I know the story behind it.

[@LauraCastro-df1cn]

Having moved many times create a small sane space. A place you can go that's all done and restful. I swear moving colds are more our bodies getting used to new environmental things. Enjoy. I love my cave but know that's not for everyone.

ahhhh yes yes so this attic room - is literally a storage room - not actually a legal bedroom so it is perfect for a craft space

If I promise to help with the reno, can I stay in the guest room? Congrats on the new home. The house and area are stunning!

[@tazminmoore455]

You're doing amazingly well in such a short space of time and accomplished a lot!! It will look stunning when it's all done, I'm sure. Moving home is one of the most stressful experiences and more so when there is work to be done on The new home. The day out is an excellent idea to de stress, I'll be having a few of them myself when I move - if I move, been so many delays but supposed to happen on 27th. I'm nervous, excited and wondering why I thought Northern Ireland was a good idea for my fresh start and new beginning 😂😂😂. I'm looking forwards to seeing your house progress!! How many boxes of art have you got? I've got 22 large boxes and no where to put them in new house, so will be garden shed for time being. I envy your new garden, it's gorgeous 😍

[@athomewithclaire]

heyyyyyy lovely - oh my goodness you're moving to Northern Ireland? wow - that will be stunning - lots of fresh air :) I will keeep everything crossed for you that it happens on 27th :) I think that is the most stressful part - not knowing when the actual day is going to be and if it will happen. We had around 150 boxes total - I am trying to work out how many I ordered from Amazon lol too many basically

[@craftylittlehobbies]

Helloooo ..... damn only just been notified of your video

[@TheBabz]

Have you registered with a doctors surgery yet? Are you sure the ‘shock effect’ cold, isn’t new allergies, due to a bigger garden & more plants & trees in the area? It all looks lovely, but hard work to decorate how you want it. I look forward to watching your progress. It must be wonderful living closer to Tim’s daughter & your grand son. I’m excited for you all!

[@athomewithclaire]

heyyyyyy lovely - I actually have not registered anywhere yet - we have been waiting for the paperwork to come through like - utilities - for proof of address haaaa but I do not feel it was allergies - just pure stress :( It has been so so wonderful living closer to them honestly - we have seen them sooooo much already x and I have the kids for dinner tonight while Mum and Dad get stuff done :)

maybe add some led lights on thos top stairs to craft room so you can light them up to see better? I would hate for you to fall down them because they are so dark. or perhaps add some small strips of a light color to go on them.

[@athomewithclaire]

oooooo I love the idea of LED - yes it really is so so dark - as soon as my energy levels return - those carpets are coming up. I realised the carpets are the easy part - it's the carpet treads that are killers to remove haaa
