[@SmallWonda]

Awesome! And thank you for not messing about with the content & wrecking our viewing enjoyment! Very impressive, Jason certainly built an impressive home with a lovely view of The Bay...

[@sophia4christ]

Absolutely beautiful! I love that they incorporated the experts' suggestions.

[@decomanjoel]

Oh my God! I love this series! I watch it for hours as I fold laundry at the hotel where I'm employed as a driver/houseman.

[@MrPdeps]

I totally agree. Hardwork and dedication always pays off.

[@barbarakatsivoawere3804]

Me too, it’s crazy

[@barbarakatsivoawere3804]

I get so much joy....

[@lowesonia8551]

Full of admiration for Jason, the result is fantastic . May you now rest and enjoy your achievement.

[@csmith563]

LOVE the End result. The flow, the open air feel, the view...

[@AgentAO7]

Really nice & unbelievable that this was done under £100K. One of the most successful episodes of this show.

[@lisakilmer2667]

This is one of the best episodes of the three seasons, and one of the very few that actually come in on or under budget.

[@SailingCartagena]

The store they visited in Copenhagen was Roxxi Classics, plenty of spartan furniture, and some light fittings too. The prices are astronomical, no real bargains to be had in my opinion. If you really want classic Danish design head to the many charity shops or second hand markets because the prices there much lower.

[@lcominghome]

Where are the second hand market in Copenhagen

[@marijkeforsseimpens8389]

Wish I could build a house on such a fantastic location with that amount of attention to detail. I'm not a D IY myself - although I could be with some help - but what drives me to despair is often trying to explain my vision to the workers I hire and they answer it can't be done because they don't have the expertise or they can't be bothered or they tell me it will cost 3 times what I can afford to pay. My plan is to take DIY lessons and simply do it myself. I just wish I knew an architect like Piers in Belgium because I am totally unimpressed with newly built houses in Belgium where I live. I spend part of my life in Sweden and therefore know firsthand that it is possible to build Scandinavian style inspired houses on a tight budget. I am a huge fan of this program. Wish they would broadcast it in Belgium as well where the typical house is a small narrow dark corridor. Thanks for all the tips and tricks. // M

Marijke, If builders don't comply or recognize your vision in building your future dream home. Just hit them over the head with a sledge hammer, they'll soon get on board with what you want, and with discount. You'll find this method works wonders.

[@marciamorelli2172]

Pallet knife painting

[@nordicvolkan8589]

This is just amazing this show gives me so much ideas on building simple and affordably.

[@elizabethflynn8455]

Well done. Beautiful finish. Great to see how happy they are with their home.

[@amritamishra7131]

Wow! I am so inspired by this couple- practical and creative. Most people think those two abilities can't go together but looks like they can! Jason did a smashing job. I want to know if he took this up as a career.

[@luzi29]

Pierce is so great 😐 he is awesome

[@jukes243]

Very well done, Mr. Jason. Absolutely beautiful home.

[@mantybutton4775]

imagine carrying your weekly shopping up those steps, week after week and then how will they manage once they are older, totally impractical plot!

[@MissPhoenixLili]

manty button Exactly what i was thinking... not even talking abt wheelchair They better get delivery grocery but them oldselves will end up lock inside till death

[@unlisted4253]

So you wouldn't live in a house like that???

[@pedrolopes3542]

they need an external lift.

[@marcelcicort9671]

Glad to see they stopped being stubborn and listened to experts...nice home..

[@user-zl1bd5es7c]

Very cool… not sure about the plywood bench tho… I don’t have enough cushioning for that to be comfortable!!!!!😂

[@sthembilezinhle4053]

thank you for uploading!

[@treasuresofchristtv4844]

Amazing good looking house but still need a good couch area.

[@andreaandrea6716]

"... the rest of it is going to be easy, absolutely easy." Ha!! You NEVER temp the Gods like that!!

[@arlenehutchinson9259]

The site of the home, was a once in a lifetime, under a lucky star, with a fairy godmother who loves you find 💯 AND Jason was the man for the job 🙌🏾💯💯💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I hate to tell everyone, that was not NOT a 100k house, NO MAME, you forgot Jason's salary: A labourer is worth his hire. Minimum 100k per year PLUS workman's comp 100k, I think Piers's initial budget of 400k is more like the real number here people 😄 😀 😳 so SAVE UP 😀 😄 😉 Cheers to the happy couple may you have many happy years here. 🥂🍾

[@sayedhusson3876]

Brilliant Show and brilliant house

[@ArthurDentZaphodBeeb]

€100K but 3+ years of time that's not included. Add in what he could have earned over those 3 years and it's a £300+K build in reality. Also add in the extra money they had to spend to rent two places to live... Walking up and down those stairs with groceries and whatever would drive me nuts.

[@thehungrygoldfish]

Still considerably cheaper than buying a readymade home.

[@fawadandfamilyvlogs4671]

Land £100K BUILD £100K 3 years in making £100K TOTAL COST: £300K

[@markskewes7407]

and probably more

[@thehungrygoldfish]

Still considerably less then buying an existing house.

[@alexiparis3244]

The look she had when he was talking about the wood couch

[@carolinehoward180]

This house has no personality despite them being such a warm, hardworking couple. 🙁

[@columbenz]

Because the personality is on the outside, the wonderful nature... this was discussed in the show

[@skullsaintdead]

Wow, under $100 K. Amazing. Just shows what perfectionism can do! Great perseverance from Jason - and flexibility too. Although I don't like these modern homes (more of a Gothic person myself), it still works. The plywood couch looks odd though.

[@beejayvandegriendt3632]

I'm surprised that driving to work was cheaper than the train! And why did they build a home a 4 hour drive away from where their business is? Doesn't seem practical.

[@evanhadkins5532]

They privatised the rail system.

[@luzi29]

So little money for a plot with such a great view 🙀

[@leannes1977]

Why so big a kitchen counters , a penninsula and an island....overkill

[@icecastles1432]

They could put a colourful cushion on that bench. I would put in a comfy like sectional. 🌎

[@saritawirsig6326]

so cool!!!

[@magdalenasz.7593]

IMO it's example of the another problem with building an own house - failure with location. Two rather senior people have come up with their dream home on a large hill without access road. Only a narrow path plus hundreds of stairs lead to their home !!! What about everyday shopping, deliveries of larger things? Already they are too old to climb stairs a few times per day, what will be in the future? Total carelessness and impracticality. Experts should also pay attention to location "availability"

[@polyannamoonbeam]

nice ...the island set up is not ideal..V narrow area . I would have built up cabinetry at ends to ceiling for storage not to bend down all the time. oven so far from breakfast area and fridge.hmmm. finishes on sink area and window are beautiful floor too .

[@lindagodi8146]

Scandinavian ? My foot ! *rolls eyes*

[@thetrickisirarelyrespond5945]

Thanks for uploading these, I needed to refer to that Danish furniture store again (39:49 does anybody know the name of it?) Thanks again

[@minbannister3625]

where do you put your car?

[@cillafontana4536]

Great job... it's really lovely. But for someone with a bad back, you won't be spending much time lounging on that sofa. It just doesn't look like a place you could live in comfortably... not yet.

[@IamGilgamesh666]

Five minutes in: 100k, yeah fuckin' right!

[@michaels3757]

watch until the end they did it for under 100k

[@terrysymington210]

where is the lounge area?

[@saritawirsig6326]

I want to tell you ,I have interest it a lot.

[@tjhill4044]

But those have managed to twist the very good ideas a bit to the cheap side. The light is to much and to coloured. The cussions on the sofa...😐.... the much too white rest of the house. The wall paper in the master.... But they are happy...and so it's ok.

[@Tresfres]

Jealous of the house but the furniture they bought is kind of blah!

[@1943ofour]

Beautiful. I would spend the remainder on some furniture.

[@vliegendehollander55]

Maybe i am old fashion, but must the visitors sit on that plank to see the view? When we become visitors they come for us, not to sit on a plank.

[@trampslikeus3575]

Just wondering, I'am writing from Canada are there any mosquitoes or flies in Britain. Because here you would always have a screen door on the outside than the glass door?

[@skullsaintdead]

Good question, I'm sure they do. We pretty much always have them in Oz too. I suppose the aesthetic of the building would be compromised if a fly wire door was installed.

[@lilylebowsky5908]

No, not often in the UK. We are not accustomed to hot weather only chilly rainy ones. So if mosquitoes do occur, we just moan and buy a small hand held net

[@margeryk6596]

The couch is awful! How can you relax on a strip of plywood?

[@Rockhopper1]

what annoys me is the price of land is never taken into consideration, i call bullshit on this programme

[@thehungrygoldfish]

It’s unrealistic to expect everything to come in under 100k

[@suzannehawkins5897]

Not a property that appeals to me, but he worked very hard.

[@anomarretsuk]

more money is needed on "good" furniture,....i guess

[@charliefoster3221]

I would have ground the concrete island down to a finer finish before moving in. It's too late now, the dust would get everywhere despite using proper vacuuming techniques. Decorative concrete is usually finished with a grinder.

[@PatrickSamphire]

Don't like that gloss plastic sheeting that will "last forever". Would be nice to have something that won't end up in landfill for thousands of years.

[@roka2031]

This house is so bare...no adornment... no artwork..etc..

[@gtv6chuck]

Great looking house, but really too stark for me.

[@anafreitas1646]

Why not a greenhouse with windows that can control airflow?

[@bigjulie3714]

Great effort by all but the music which was horrid drums....... silence is golden.

[@nikitaLEGALL]

i guess they ran out of money when they had to chose furniture

[@J.Cameron.Stuart.Adams.]

Stolen content! No license was requested or fee paid to legally post this content.

[@nanabusterd]

Not bad, if you don't mind living in a doctors office.

[@jayburris6252]

What is wrong with air conditioning?

[@PatrickSamphire]

Expensive and uses a lot of electricity, versus opening the glass doors = free.

[@columbenz]

Seldom needed in UK climate. They were going to install one because of a fault in the design (too much glass creating a hot glasshouse), but there are much better solutions, such as opening the door.
