Well done Phil. It, somehow, felt very liberating when that door opened. Like a breath of fresh air. Absolutely the right decision. 😁👍

[@kathywillis7459]

I’m so glad that you’re posting more often Phil. It’s exciting seeing you not only take care of the chateau but transforming it and truly making it your own.

[@annhardesty1696]

Removing the hotel features is transformative! Keep it up! Don't worry about the decorating. Enjoy creating the spaces again! It makes for great content.

[@maryallen6334]

I'm hoping once he realizes we are here with our energy cheering him on that he will let us watch more demo and reno instead of showing us after he's done it. That gets flat very quickly.

[@MikefromMOMichaelTurner227]

@@maryallen6334 you know, if he was so inclined…he could take on apprentice or whatever you call it…volunteering 😊 he has lots of people pulling for him.

[@shanacrous2214]

Symbolically, it has opened a new door in your life Phil. Full steam ahead. Well done.😊

[@jenniferstrachan7084]

Wow what a transformation Your idea of removing that dreadful excuse for a wash room was a great idea Looking forward to when you open up the other side

[@katkaplavuchova2346]

This is very quickly becoming my favourite chateau channel. Thank you for everything.

[@johannaraisch4051]

Beautiful morning! You are looking mighty fine today … have an amazing day! Yay for you! That went better than I thought it would 👏👏👏

[@jeansirois3812]

Love the music!! Glad you are making your home----"Your Home!" Yay! You love it, doggie loves it, stay there----it is so nice!

[@cecoya]

That truly changes the concept of space by opening the doors, thankfully they left them intact and didn't remove them. Great job Phil! Have a wonderful day

[@elisabethhopson5639]

I wouldn't say this was too difficult Phil. You didn't have a burst pipe, or water going everywhere. The ceiling didn't collapse and you managed to get the doors open. Mission achieved. Could have been a lot worse, so well done for phase 1. You are doing ok. It is going to be very interesting what you do with the rooms. 🙂

[@nancymcneill7698]

You sounded so happy today😊 so glad!! You are going to have a grand bedroom when it's complete !! The color scheme you showed the other day suits you❤

[@marydawson8939]

Well done Phil! I’m really looking forward to going on this journey with you as you transform your bedroom into a master suite!

[@Aging_Geek]

we can really see the size of the room and agree that it won't work as a bathroom, like the plans for a darker layout in the master. tuning in next time, same channel. cheers.

[@apoco_lips9957]

What a satisfying job, big improvement

[@arleneczerwinski3348]

It was a good day of work for you … and a good day of clean up too!

[@marysell6184]

What a great idea and such an improvement! Well done, Phil! It seems that lately you have been feeling better and appear to be much happier too! That's AWESOME! Good for YOU! Looking forward to the next video! Enjoy the beautiful weather!

[@lieuwina]

That was a very good idea opening that up again and when you pushed it open it felt like a Narnja moment, when the kids climbed through the cupboard door and saw a winter wonderland. It felt like that when you pushed the door open into the other room and it actually makes the room flow and not feel cut off. Well done Phil.

[@daynight4902]

BEST WISHES TO YOU

[@Tracyforever]

Way to go Phil. A great step in restoring the château to its original state!! I’m 8 hours behind you, so I hope you enjoyed the incredible day there in France!! Tracy

[@across2726]

That door open looks great. I look forward each day to see the progress you're making. Restoring the chateau to the way it should be is exciting to watch. ❣️

[@laurenglass4514]

Perseverance paid off! Your hard work encourages us to finish our projects too. You have skill sets have always given you success with enough patience. Good job and thanks!

[@stephaniesharkey3538]

Nice to start! I’d cover the armoire with a blanket until u move it?- the other side ( which I think will b the dressing room?) put the 2 mirrored armoires together with the shay lounge chair would b fantastic- dark walls , gold, metal accents!

[@debrabenda5210]

Fantastic! I loved watching this! The old girl is saying thank you for restoring her to her original beauty! Well done! ❤

[@kittonsmitton]

Bravo Phil, great to see the progress, enjoy the stately old Dame as she was meant to be enjoyed!

[@suemccoy7533]

Terrific, bring your chateau back to it's original self, little by little. It is a fabulous property.

[@TheAwakeningangel]

Looks great just to be able to see into the other room, you did say it needs decorated and thats fine, but do consider this for a second, that wallpaper is quite nice if you just went around the skirting and so on, and then use lighter furniture the dark wood is too heavy, then the room could look nice and less work, ?? Anyway your doing great xx hugs Dede xxxx

[@Wren9]

Well done! You worked hard on that door. So now you have to get your water back on? Even your music was cheerful. It’s good that you love the chateau, it will be a joy when it’s all done! Keep going… enjoy watching you progress through the work. Good job you can do many jobs with all your talents. 😁

[@leahc6737]

Well done! It's all looking great and loving all the videos!!

[@LCNWA]

Phil, great work cause if it had been closed for all that time - stuff happens better to find it on your time than waiting pipe/electrical issue to occur. You have a friend who has good ideas you could ask Billy for their ideas as needed for these rooms as they did great job on the kitchen. Mix diff ideas that you like or lean towards like maybe diff eras of Chateau that you like colours, textures, contrast that you lean towards. this will reveal your style. Make it your own & have at it. Make it yours! Well done.

[@carladejonge4951]

That was a great project to witness! Messy, but well done!❤ Jobs like this are so therapeutic! And then you have this feeling of accomplishment! Super cool❤ Have a great day, Phil!

[@dennispatrick4999]

I believe you made the right decision here. Looking forward to the finished remodeled rooms.

[@catherinemushaw1956]

Hi Phil it looks wonderful ❤ I am happy that you opened up that door makes everything look better. Have a wonderful weekend. Love and Light to All .

[@jonimarchese7655]

Hey Phil, well done on opening that door. It's hard to hear that 50 years ago was the 70's, I love the changes you are doing. Looking forward to what comes next. Love from N.Y.

[@upsupeter]

Great job. It’s going to look amazing when finished. I no it’s hard to get motivated while alone but believe me it’s good for you just now. Love the darker rich colors you have in mind not everyone cup of tea but they don’t live there.

[@user-cu2jq6fd1g]

Lovely, as I all way's say, one task leads to ten, well done

[@davidlogan4329]

By golly Phil what a difference opening that door makes!

[@MikefromMOMichaelTurner227]

Looking good Bud!!! Still praying 😊

[@annettesharrock1236]

Thats opened that right up Phil nice job 😘

[@claudiaostergaard1812]

Almost symbolic, look at you opening up towards a new life!

[@abigailgerlach5443]

Looking good Phil! Did you decide on a color scheme for the bedroom? If you add any plumbing, might I suggest a stop valve under each sink or appliance. It will save you having to shut off everything outside. Woohoo! The door is open! Progress!!!!

[@roxyjackson893]

Phil je bent heel goed bezig je maakt er jouw eigen thuis van is heel goed voor jou en je honden kind ik vind die geweldig hoe die antwoord als je iets tegen hem zegt veel groetjes vanuit belgié

[@brendacooper8109]

That looks great put in her back the way she's supposed to be did there used to be doors on the other side where there was two sets of doors to go through there if there was I hope you can find them you're looking good have a great day

[@eletakelley7188]

Yes, maybe a closet into Narnia, lol

[@tracyschaub1187]

What a pretty day Phil 😊 Cheers to the door opening 🎉

[@HensOnly]

YAY! Way to go Phil! You did it! Look so much better without the sink in there! I love to see what you will do next! Curious what the floor looked like!

[@gregfyn]

Good to see you having a happy day!

[@cathyhatfield5340]

Awesome now you can begin the project and make it beautiful!😎👍❤️

[@sandrabebbington4422]

Very satisfying to see. Whilst you have a mess to clear up, probably worth considering removing the bath and have done with it.

[@sheenacook154]

Keep going 👍

[@lauramclaine504]

This is so exciting I can’t wait to see how beautiful it will look when done and Decorated 🥰

[@laurencunningham8281]

So exciting to see the start of your vision coming to life!

[@meri8746]

Absolutely thrilled to see you make progressive changes for your life. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Every wardrobe is gorgeous! ❤

[@marydavis8103]

Phil you are doing such an amazing job fixing up the place. Thanks for taking us along

[@lynettemayhew1723]

Congratulations, Phil. Job well done 🙏🥰👌

[@faeryvixenetc]

I'm sure the house is breathing a sigh of relief! You are bringing her back to life. Reading through the comments I see a lot of people had that same sense. There's gotta be something to that... does the house feel happier to you as well, Phil?

[@melissapollime2271]

So glad to see you concentrating on the house. They say you keep your house like you keep your mind. Looks like you are ready to start again to do what you love! Keep it up!

[@suethorsoner3706]

Add so it begins. Looks better already.❤❤

[@kimberlyflanigan]

when one door closes... another opens!!

[@stephaniegaromon3244]

I’m so glad you are making the chateau work for you. Now you have a dressing room! Good job Phil!

[@murrayhubley9976]

looks great, just wondering if you could do a video on the moat, drainage and the bubbler?

[@darklady6987]

nice job!👍

[@sandrabutcher1961]

Opening that door makes both rooms look lots lighter

[@eringillespie1630]

thats very kool

[@lisaakinlabi]

It's fun to see you get some pep in your step to make some changes and create new spaces. How fun! I can't wait to see what you will come up with.

[@suzannemckitterick2781]

Wow, Phil, you are so capable!!! Nothing you can't do...Your Shangrila Castle is going to look spectacular!!! I am very impressed...and you are looking healthier everyday....Yes, the best days are yet to come!!!! I am rooting for you.

[@susangerber9869]

Love the music.

[@del_ecuras1836]

Such a pretty chateau how exciting to be opening something that’s been closed for so many years

[@chrismarcotte4241]

Huge improvement!! Well done, Phil!

[@kevinelliott8192]

I like the new room. And you want to go dark! Perfect for a gearhead guy with style!! Dark Acedamia decor! Look it up! You do so well on your own. Stay strong!! LLAP

[@kevinelliott8192]

Academia!! My bad

[@janmorris1098]

The weather Phill can make so much difference to your well being, it has been such a wet gray winter we have all been depressed untill we see the sun.

[@MontanaKnits]

So exciting! You’re going to have a wonderful suite!

[@margaretforshaw1617]

Brilliant !

[@janowens2212]

Wow.💯Bet this place was a happening place back in the days.🤙walls are talking through you.People need to see how amazing places like this exist.😃Thanks for showing us this old mansion.

[@jeca8117]

All power to you Phil. There’s nothing you can’t achieve when you put your mind to it and you are the epitome of that philosophy.

[@donnasteinberg1398]

Great job Phil! The light coming in from the room now is much better and that little sink area was silly! Happy clean up! Thanks for sharing

[@cheriethievin9243]

you are brilliant, look forward to every step...

[@SweetOne.]

When that door opened it was like the whole building took a breath, well done Phil! Wonder what that room will feel like when both doors function again?

[@marilynwade9448]

I love it. You made a suite. Great idea❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Fabulous

[@sandradrees5499]

Good job well done. The rooms seem to breathe and relax without being trussed up with pipes and glue. Interesting project, looking forward to seeing how you progress xx

[@pamelawhitmore7353]

Very satisfying Phil, great job done, looks amazing. 😊

[@oldtop4682]

Well done! This changes the whole look for the better. It will also allow more light in when wanted. You should really get a cordless oscillating tool if you don't have one. I didn't think I would use one much, but after I bought one my whole view changed. They work well for plumbing among a host of other tasks.

[@Darren_Nicola]

Well done fabulous job ,

[@connietorres8629]

Did a great job can't wait to see what you are going to do. Love to watch your videos!

[@normamurray4450]

Good for your Phil! Opening the doors sure made a good difference! You're on a roll now! Now we're looking forward to seeing you "crack on" even further.

[@maryallen6334]

That really changed the energy in the place. It was lovely to watch it happen too.

[@sc0ttishlass]

I am so glad that you finally making the chateau your own, and i like the idea of a darker themed bedroom and that you want to reinstate the enfilade style access to the rooms again. It is our house, you should feel comfortable in it.

[@cathyreardon8979]

What a blessing to bring this chateau back to life again. It must be a dream come true for you. 🥰. Would love to see more of this restoration.❤️ 😊

[@arliegage1380]

Interesting to watch the transformation🎉

[@judithfryer7024]

Just having a beautiful day whether your inside or out makes you want to get on with things. Dismal day here in Leeds. You are going a great job x😊

[@user-fc2hb3de2w]

Ta DA! Yes!

[@BarbaraatQueensAvenueTarot]

Phil, I do like those curtains behind you. The dark brown with the birds...they're beautiful and would be great in a masculine room.

[@leighnisbett9691]

Looks like you have a suite for your in-laws when they visit and they could have a bedroom ,sitting room and bathroom if they don't want personal time away from the family . Bravo .

[@nancyf18]

The original doors are beautiful, great job

[@user-ho1sm7sp8x]

For colours in your bedroom etc. because winter is so gloomy you should find a cosy outdoor space in a dark summer/ spring space and use those colours and gold or silver as highlights

[@nelleg152]

It looks so much better with that door open can't wait to see the other side ❤

[@lotusdolphin]

Really happy that things went smooth for you, Phil. You’ve done an amazing job on that château. Sending love from LIZ in California. 🤟🏻💜☘️😎🇺🇸

[@luanncolistro879]

Great job !! I love the tone of your happy voice about how beautiful the day was ❤️❤️

[@robinmcl4917]

That actually felt fresh when you opened that door.

[@info-wizz]

I absolutely love your home Phillip

[@gwen2336]

Love it Phil. You are finding your likes, wants and into your space. 👏👏

[@doloresmackenzie9451]

Feel the room breath again 🎶

[@joannebolton1]

But we love watching the clearing up bit too! Gives us a sense of beginning and end....😅 looking amazing though and so much better with those doors open 👌
