Today I give you an updated tour of my house, which has changed a lot since the last video. Floor Plans available here: www.kordare.com/product-page/...
this is really awesome! I’m looking for land now to do something similar but land is like 170k where I’m at for a 1/3 an acre which sucks. lol but I’m looking at using a steel barn as a base to help save some cost. Did you ever consider using steel instead of wood? And if so, was there something that made you decide on the wood?
We all appriciate the time and effort you put into this, thank you Kordare, you are living every mans dream. Choose wisley which woman you wife up or all your hard work and energy you've put forward will disappear lol!
@@Kordare Trust me brother, people would do anything to be in your position, thank you once again for the great content, been following a long time. I love the way you work its very similar to the way I do things also, and everything makes sense.
Awesome video as always Kordare. Your house is a car enthusiasts dream home you can wake up walk through the door and be able to start working on your favorite projects. Thanks for sharing your passions with us.
man that all looks great, also really fun seeing all this come to life from the beginning, major plus that i know you did it all yourself and thats a huge props
Hey Sir, what type of heat do you use in garage? I see you are in PA, I am also. So I could not run water in my shop since I do not have a constant heat source. I burn wood, and do not have insulation. So it gets cold when the fire goes out. Thanks. Nice complex!
Hello. It was awesome to see the update video. Ive not seen your videos in a few years. Your place is awesome. I like the shop and living area combination. The outside shower is probably my favorite addition. The way you have the house back from the road and seems private is makes it a great place to live.
Great job young man. You should be proud of the results. I have pondered the Barndominium concept. I love how you have paced your progress. My first viewing. Thanks for sharing.
awesome work brother!!!! biggest inspiration for my life goals of being self sufficient and independent!!! love the progress throughout years, you're awesome!!!
Wow, you did a fantastic job on everything and thank you for breaking down the costs. This is my dream type of place, in the woods but not so isolated that you need to make it a special event. I really like the outdoor shower and it is perfect to just rinse off after working outside. Thank you for sharing and that is worth a like and a subscribe.
I remember tripping on mushrooms watching you build the staircase when the ramp was there. You filmed so many nails as you were hammering it, I cracked up so much and it settled me down.
Hello Kordare. We met at HV cars and coffee and spoke about your mustang about a year or 2 ago. This is the dream right here. My ultimate single, self sufficient dream lol just add some farm land. Great job on your progress.
You got me into the concept of barndominiums with the first video you posted of your house. Glad to see how it's coming along! I somehow knew you'd eventually get rid of the ramp. It's cool but I can see it losing its luster as opposed to having more space for toys.
Me and my boys been going crazy for these videos you make. I even built a 3v with on3 because of you lol. Keep it up!!! Makes me wish I went to school for engineering LOL.
Fantastic job and way to keep plugging away at building your house that meets your needs! A double 4 post lift in that back right corner would clean up a lot of space, mustang and Jeep up top with Land rover and Z4 on the ground then can still park your daily next to it or up front like you have it.
Impressive know-how dude. I wish I learned how to do things like this at a younger age. Now I'm on the wrong side of my 30's trying to figure things out lol. (Take notes kiddos!)
Appreciate your video. This is just what we want to do. I may have missed it in past videos, but did you have to do a special wall between the living quarters and the garage? So, whats next?
did you ever have to get a building inspection or is the structure classed as commercial or something? I’m from Germany so I really don’t know how this works in the States but I watch another channel from NC and they get inspected for every little thing they’re building. Just asking out of interest :)
What is that fence looking thing that tips down to the ground. I especially enjoy watching the building, it would be cool to watch you start building a formal master bedroom/Bathroom.
Do you have any plans for Landscaping? Grasses / Shrubs / Landscape lighting. If you choose to go with a deck - would you go with a wood product or a plastic decking? Thanks for sharing!
As of now I enjoy the simplicity and low upkeep of my landscaping 😂. If I do a deck, I'll do it myself so I'd probably just go traditional treated lumber.
This place is beautiful. I think once my daughter graduates high school I may seriously consider talking my wife into selling our current house to do something like this. We're in the DFW area in Texas so thankfully our property should only appreciate the next few years. Also, what state are you in?
No heat/AC in the shop. I use a large window unit in the living space which works well for now. I plan to do a full system before I finish the second floor.
Absolute banger of a place my man! Were you able to secure a home loan for the initial cost? Not sure how that all works, I’m assuming you pay out of pocket for upgrades or HEL’s
Thank you! I used a traditional loan but I saved up a lot to keep the loan amount about half of the total project cost (including land). A construction loan would be a way to do it. I made sure I paid off the land before applying for the loan to build which will help your overall balance sheet.
I don't have heated floors and I love the concrete floors. They seem to regulate the temperature nicely. Maybe a little cool in winter but I have more than enough heat from my wood stove. They seem to help keep the place cool in the summer.
I apologize for commenting this here lol but on that 600hp Mustang you turbocharged a few years back what did you do to the transmission? Did you swap it or build it? If you bought it what transmission is it and if you built it how much did it cost? Thanks! If you by chance have a parts list I would love to see it if possible. I want to turbo my 3v with the onn3 kit so I’m curious what you have to mod!
@@Kordare wow I’m really surprised the stock transmission is holding up, from what I have heard they don’t really like to handle much. If I were to upgrade the transmission do you have any recommendations that could hold 600-650 hp? Right now I’m fbo cammed and I’m having a hard time finding what a good trans would be.
If your wanting something fairly reliable and 4x4 I’d get you a little Toyota pickup or older Tacoma or maybe the first gen tundra with the v8 if you ever think about selling the jeep
Normally a shed would be out swinging but the type of door I used are meant to be inswing. Luckily I have plenty of room to open them in front of the mower.
Now that you have shown everyone what you have built and what you own , you need to think about security to keep all that . German shepards are preferd . along with Malinois , or maybe a pair of Dobermans . Fences and gates are a must have .Cameras and electronics are only afffective after the fact . Locks can all be defeated . Dogs keep out even the most serious trespassers with good intensions or bad ones .
You seem like a decent guy and you should be proud of what you've made there; its fantastic. Just wish you weren't one of those guys who thinks everyone wants to hear a modified exhaust system in their neighborhood, town, state, region....
Garage is called polyaspartic roll on coating. It's held up okay, could use a couple more coats. The living space is stained then clear coated and has held up great.
