We Bought a Cabin (full tour)

[@tylerandtodd]

This video feels so bittersweet to be sharing with you all…this isn’t in a million years how we expected things to go but after 4 years, we knew it was time. It was incredibly difficult to explain all the different layers and reasons behind making this decision, so if you’re left with lingering questions after watching this, we’re going to be sharing the full story on Wednesday’s podcast episode! Today, we wanted to focus on sharing our new home with you and kicking off this next chapter…also, only have a mattress on the floor but I can tell you, not having to build our bed each night before going to bed has been the BEST part so far. Cannot wait to hear what you all think of this timber frame cottage and to start this next chapter together ❤

I can’t wait to see your new home! 🥰

[@katieandmickknobel2739]

As a mom of 5 I can tell you that you are right that no surrogate or adoptive mom would want their kid to live in a tent during a Nova Scotia winter. However, plenty of moms would want their kids to visit that space and spend time there when weather is nice! You will be great dads and you are already making great choices for you future family!

[@johannasildam3835]

I definitely understand the surrogate comment. however now they can just show prospective surrogates their bank account 😅 this house and land is worth a looottttt of money 😅 very beautiful though

Imagine how it will look when Todd unleashes his Xmas decorations!! 9 trees? Let's go for 10!! It is a far better environment for Charlie to heal and much safer. I believe this was Todd's childhood cabin? As much as I adore your builds, you deserve a winter without having to schlep in and out, especially with a recovering pup!! Love you guys! ❤💕🦄💕❤

[@tylerandtodd]

Nope, we didn't know the owners of this place at all. Right place at the right time...also, totally agree! The more trees, the better!!

[@unattendedgrandma4073]

Tree topper - place on the tree before it is put up? I have a photo of my father attempting to put a paper star made by my then 9 y/o daughter using a broom handle from the loft. Their little house in the forest had very ceilings in the main living area. (they also had a tower) Rather an unconventional house but they loved it. As did I. It was very, very hard to let it go.

[@marilynjohnson1782]

I love it! Sure it's a left turn from what you have been striving for. Goals change in life, that's not always a bad thing. Looking forward to less showering outside ( haha) and more normal indoor life so Charlie can heal. Have a warm cozy winter. ❤

Ok... I'm only 2 minutes in but.... 2 things.... 1... you have improved your living situation since last winter and have prepared your home for a better winter this year. You have accomplished so much on the land. 2. #1 doesn't matter. You are so wise to listen to your hearts and see the changes in yourselves and to respond to them. You are courageous and bold to step out and make the changes that you need to make. As humans, we grow and adapt and change happens. You are so smart to recognize that!

[@celticlass8573]

The land was always intended to be an income property, where they also had a house. Since they have no idea when the container house will be done (it's already been delayed for years, through no fault of theirs), after years of living where they were, they just need a break. When the container house is eventually done, they will either move into there and turn the cabin into a rental property, or they'll stay where they are, and the container house will be added to the income-generating buildings they will have on the land now and in the future.

[@divekatdreaming]

You both deserve happiness because we now know you both have been through so much, but you are still firmly committed to each other and that is what makes you so special - you will solve the problems in the new place and it will provide you with much more comfortable surrounding but realistically - how many problems can you both take while wishing to simply live a happy life together with your "children".

[@marygallagher7392]

When we bought a new house last year, we knew the deck (built in 1982) had to go. There was so much rot and building codes have really improved since then. It wasn't safe so it was removed. Had a new, larger deck done and half of it is a screened porch. For us, it has completely enhanced the house into a home. Can't wait to see what you create!

[@selahrising]

A portion of the deck screened in is a great idea for when the bugs are around in the summer.

[@MrWongerz]

The cabin is breathtaking. I also can’t help but feel amazed by the skillset you’ve developed over the years. The way you’ve built things from the ground up really allows you to tackle endless projects at the cabin. It’s really beautiful and exciting to see this type of confidence and creativity.. knowing that you have the problem-solving skills and resilience to handle any new project.

[@sophiesmeenk1076]

Guys, I'm so not jealous! This is my absolute dream home, it's incredible! I do however devoutly hope you'll finish the container home too, from the comfort and safety of this new one, because wow.

Let me know if I have to send you care packages! 😉😍❤️

[@ennykraft]

Congratulations! The house is stunning. I can totally understand the need for a warm place in winter. The cold gets you after a while. I grew up in a half-timbered farmhouse built in 1756. Although it was beautiful, there were gaps between the timbers where you could see daylight. In the winter it was so cold that a glass of water next to the bed would be frozen in the morning. Then I moved to a lovely tiny house on a mountain. When it snowed it was accessible only on foot. Having to walk 1 km in the morning to get to work and then back in the afternoon, carrying all the groceries was exhausting. Both houses had to be heated with wood fires. After four years I was fed up with it. These days I want something warm in winter where I can turn on the heating. Hope you'll be very happy in your new home!

[@tylerandtodd]

"can turn on heating" is SO true..it's hard for people to understand how over time the work involved with providing the every day essentials (heat, water, electricity) gets tiring. It makes it more tiring and difficult to do everything else that goes into living life.

[@robf8991]

Congratulations. The house looks great. A garage too!!! Running water heat and bathrooms and showers a tub wohoooo.

[@WalkiTalki]

@@tylerandtodd I grew up in a "camp" in the 70s. We had water when the spring out back collected enough water to puddle and the pooled water would make pressure for the house. We flushed our modern toilet by dumping the five gallon bucket of water into the back of it and then flushing. Today I sometimes catch myself turning on the water in my house and just letting the hot water run for no reason whatsoever. I will stop, just before leaving the bathroom, and think to myself " that why did I do that?" I totally understand.

I appreciate your story about acquiring a cabin, and your excitement for this new venture, but hope that you will continue to finish the project we have been following with you for the past few years! Having grown up in Eastern Ontario on a farm that included a smallish lake, I do recall the peace of wandering to the shore on a Sunday afternoon to check on the great blue herons and loons that were our summer neighbours! There were not a lot of motorboats around to disturb the peacefulness of a Sunday afternoon, so it truly was a calming sanctuary.

I can tell you where water is probably coming in from-the snowmelt and rain and moisture from the low laying garage. You’re gonna need to create a water pathway in front of the garage to allow water to slow away from the garage instead of in the garage and into the walls and downstairs. Enormous building flaw but easy peasy, just scoop up that dirt so there isn’t a valley in front of if the garage and make a small ditch to allow heavy water to flow away from the house.

I posted this on FB this morning about myself, after watching your video today this most certainly also applies to you both. I wish you both much happiness. “A very good friend of mine told me one day, you are living your best life, I can see it. I told her yes I am and it only took me 56 years to get here. I realized though, it’s not about how long it takes you to get to your best life, it’s about the lessons learned along the way. It’s about the people who have influenced you and those who love you, past and present . We all go down different paths and some of us have taken detours. But in the end, life is a journey and not a marathon. Frankly I’m happy that I took the rough roads, detours and the path less traveled because it has led me to a place of self realization, self respect and to the life I now share with my husband. MY BEST LIFE! ❤️”

No hauling kayaks! Thank you for showing us your new 'baby'. Prepare yourself for little surprises. I spent a year in a van, then a barn & when we moved into a house we were saying the things you guys are. A tub, a bath, a real kitchen, dining room. Room for company.

[@jackiejoseph2515]

I can’t believe you guys managed to snatch this amazing, once in a life-time find up so quickly! I’m so happy for you both and hope you continue to show all the reno’s this place could have for years to come.

[@lovelyskull3483]

This is such a beautiful home for such a beautiful couple and their furry family. Well done!

[@sharonstuebi8181]

Congratulations. You deserve to be comfortable, safe, and warm. Enjoy your life. We aren't promised tomorrow. I'm 70 and have been living in and renovating my home. I'm so over the dust and inconvenience. But grateful

[@windrider5845]

Wow!!! Score!!!! What an awesome property!! I love the the other container house but this has so much potential and the privacy and view is priceless!!! ❤❤❤

[@csutton5762]

Always full of surprises. I am so happy for you both. The property is beautiful!

[@tylerandtodd]

Thank you so much Catherine!

Thanks so much Kate xoxo

I was watching this video on our tv vs Normal method of iPad and my wife stumbled in. “And how did they get here? Last I saw the dome was being put up.” and now we are watching your videos from the beginning when you were starting the N.A. Tour so she can catch up. 😂 ❤ you both. Keep being you. Thank you for sharing your journey with us all.

[@ItsAMbutyoutubechangedmyname]

Life is a journey and it’s okay to take a different road then when you first started it’s about growing living learning then who knows the roads might intertwined on the way. Congratulations to you both and the fur babies What a beautiful home ❤

[@JL11775]

Congrats on your new home! I am curious how you will be dividing your time once the container home is finished though. But I’m happy you and the boys will be safe and warm this winter. And I can already picture Todd placing multiple Xmas trees in this new place! 😉Have a great week, guys!

[@karendionne2228]

🎉🎊 CONGRATULATIONS! 🎊🎉 I am all for living in comfort! You can air-b-n-b the container property once you get it finished and continue to live in your beautiful cabin.

[@nleonard49]

So exciting to see all this unfold. I'll be very curious to see how Charlie, Eddy and Squirrel take to it. ❤

[@3dognite]

Good to see you two both happy and excited. Congratulations! Looking forward to future videos.

[@hermannolmesdahl3802]

Congratulations on the new home. I know that you will be happy there. Going to miss the trials and tribulations of the old place.

[@lynnriddle9086]

Congratulations! I am over the moon happy for the two of you. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you are going to do to make it your home!!!

[@christophm860]

The sense of peace radiating from both of you is just...it was everything. Exactly what I needed this week. Congratulations on your beautiful new house guys! Can't wait to see those walls bursting with love!

[@wzahner]

WOW! Best move you've ever made! Finally, indoor plumbing. How radical. Perhaps you should return the "industrial waste" site back into virgin forest? LOL! All your work and all the grief and expense... well, it was a learning experience. I'm sure you will do something worthwhile with it, but it was obviously taking a toll on both your mental and physical health and seemed to be sapping a lot of the joy out of your lives. Your new home seems like a real winner, and will still keep you very busy, I'm sure. Congratulations! What a beautiful cabin and what a truly stunning location! Wishing you much happiness as you move forward.

[@posnrg2u327]

Love, love, love timber frame homes. Handcrafted, master crafted, one of a kind home. Congratulations 🎉😊 Eddie, Charlie and Squirrel are going to love it!

[@KimScrapper]

Congratulations to you both! Your cabin has something magical about it, I immediately felt a calmness viewing it so I know you guys will too. A much deserved "pause" for you both and it looks like the perfect place for you and the boys. It was meant to be as you're right, almost impossible to find lake frontage property in our beautiful province. I'm so excited to see what adventures your new home provides!

[@TheGenflute]

12:32 utility sink! I mean, that's what I'd say here in Nebraska. Gorgeous timber built home!! LOVE all the gorgeous natural wood and light! ❤❤❤

[@azena.]

That house looks like a dream! I'm so happy for you both. Life, is a funny thing and stuff changes all the time. It's easy to lose our way if we step away from our core because we focus more on the plans we lay down than what our heart and soul are trying to tell us. It's always so important to not be afraid of changing and making changes, including to the plan, because we have to respond to where we are right now. So, I'm really happy for the two of you, I'm also incredibly jealous in the best possible way because that house, that view, is just gorgeous! I wish you all the very best with this new chapter in your lives, you deserve something magical ❤❤

[@sandratweedale2579]

You’ve been so brave! Good for you, it’s just been sad to see you working so hard with no end in sight. Still anxious to see how it all unravels. Bless you both and your boys

[@camillabird]

That is such a sweet house! What a gem! I'm so excited for you both. That door off your bathroom will come in handy when you are dirty from outdoors... You can jump straight in the shower and keep the dirt from the rest of the house! Congrats for this lovely step.

[@mister_brando]

Happy for you both and the new cabin. Curious though, what exactly is holding up the container home... for years? Years seems like a really long time to hold up a home build. At this point you've sunk a lot of money into that property, and certainly improved your living conditions. Living off grid is no walk in the park, but you have all the amenities. I'm kind of in shock that you would walk away. It's none of our business, but the whole off grid journey is what attracted a lot of us to your channel in the first place... and watching it transform has been so great to see.

[@zipinha]

They didn't walk away. They need better immediate conditions for their life to evolve as a family

[@outoftheburrough]

There are jobs that can't be done during the winter (due to weather & road closures to heavy vehicles) which they indicated in a previous video won't get done this year, including things required for the next progress inspection, so that then means they are stuck for ~6+ months before they can pick things back up, plus things they have had to redo do the failings. The reworking of the stairs location took an absolute age too so there has easily been well over a year added. & Living in the dome for as long as they have through hard Canadian winters takes its toll which can slow them down even more when they hadn't planned to be in it through this many.

[@marlenemacfarlane6199]

Congratulations on your new home it looks amazing your tour was awesome your both so happy lots of happy memories

[@Bernhard_P.]

Wow you found heaven on earth. I am a little bit jealous.

[@suedorfman7138]

Oh my gosh! I am so happy for you. What a find. What a gorgeous property, the house is stunning and the view to die for. The pups and Squirrel will love this space this winter. Again, so happy for you.

[@ddaydrmngrl]

I've been watching since the beginning so I recall one of your early Q&As after moving to the property where you talked about building an A-frame cabin. I even remember being surprised when you decided to go with a shipping container home. This definitely seems like a dream fulfilled and a huge complement to the amazing off-grid home that you will have in the future. I'm so happy for you guys!

[@tylerandtodd]

Thank you so much!! It was definitely a round about way of getting there but it feels pretty fantastic

[@Ramen.Butterbeard]

My house in the UK is a youngster, at 114yrs old, I also am still amazed at an indoor toilet, love you guy's, merry Yule Tide❤️

[@caroledavis-lh5to]

I am so very very happy for you guys. You so deserve this, and what a beautiful setting. The boys are going to love their new home. Can’t wait to see videos of them exploring the land and swimming in the lake. When Charlie is able to do so. This is the next chapter in your lives, and we are sharing it with you. Wow! Can’t wait to see your ideas come to fruition. All in good time.

[@lorrainecalvert4635]

Congrats on the new home! It's a beautiful spot. I have to tell you I'm a bit sad to be leaving the land, but I can completely understand that you need a break, especially with winter coming. Charlie and Eddie are going to love it! I'm getting Eamon and Bec vibes 🙂!

[@lesleyhughes3174]

Just Tyler and Todd. Nobody else.
