This is incredible. I love the way Marc thinks. He is doing a restoration, not a renovation. Everything blends so well with your historical buildings. Kudos to his authenticity.
My husband and I watched this together. We were spellbound! The construction was so amazing. Simple building techniques created a wooden structure that lasted almost 250 years. The climate in the Alps must be perfect for timber, to preserve it without rot or bugs. Astonishing story! Thanks
Wow! I too think the chickens would love to have their own Swiss chalet. 1790...and even older trees. This 'shed' will last far longer than any big box store shed by a long shot. Well done, Marc! It adds even more charm to your lovely château.
Marc looks like the cat that got the cream , loving the finish , the chalet looks as though it has been there for years , well done to all that was involved. I think Amy you have lost Marc for good with all his new projects for the garden 😁 . Enjoying all you are doing xxx
What a truly magnificent structure and what amazing carpenters past and present 👍. Well done all at Chateau de Rosieres, definitely need one for the chickens 👍, one for the cows👍 and certainly one for the children to play in 👍👍.
That’s so fun to see how it was constructed!!! They’re kind of like cross-sections of a log home, with the pegs to hold the boards straight, because they don’t have the weight and rigidity of an entire tree trunk. Thanks, as always, for sharing your endlessly interesting lives! ♥️♥️♥️
What a beautiful addition to your property! I love that not much is new. There is real beauty in things that were built to last more than a lifetime. So much for the idea of getting a new model frequently!!
Mark, I would have loved that log house when I was a little girl. You better get ready your children will want it for a play house. Lol..lol.. Kathy USA 🇺🇸
Marc & Amy, what an amazing video! I enjoyed it so much. What a beautiful structure, and so great that Marc wanted to put it on the chateau grounds to save it from being destroyed. Good team effort from the French carpenters, as well.
Wow, this chalet is beautiful. Awesome job, guys. This will last longer than any store bought shed, and it looks so much better, like it was always there. The smile on Mark's fast tells it all.❤
Wow! The chalet is wonderful! It is a marvel, the way it was built with no nails or screws, just beautiful pieces that fit together like a glove. I love it.
Marc I was smiling with you. How gorgeous is that chalet! It went together so well and it looks amazing. It’s so old but so strong. You all did an amazing job and I love it! Well done guys.
So nice to have Pepper overseeing everything! Sounds like you need a second chalet for the chickens. Thinking outside the box again, who else would think to use this as a gardening shed.
At the beginning I thought that it was a silly idea but by the end was so impressed by the outcome and especially all the thought, enthusiasm and energy that went into this 😊
Marc, you are so entertaining and your dedication to bringing back history is phenomenal! The rebuild of such a structure had me glued to the site....wow! Well done!
What a wonderful, authentic addition to the grounds of the chateau. Marc always goes above and beyond to preserve and enhance their chateau and surrounding land
Just beautiful..love how you find such treasures and have the vision to give them a new useful life. They blend seamlessly into the fabric of the chateau ..like they’ve always been there. .settling down for a few hundred more years.
What a perfectly charming, adorable, little cottage this is! How ingenious to build it that way. Thank you for sharing it with us. Now we all want one. 😄 Blessings to you all.
Definitely need to get a folly for the chickens. This is amazing!!! That key is the crowning glory of the whole thing. I have a really big love for old skeleton keys. I love it!!
Absolutely incredible... Hi from Australia... Yep... nearly as old as this country... so they say! Thank you for showing us some working history... Smiles all around says it all.. Impressive... Btw, hope you find the spiral staircase in the chateau and the elusive ancient cellars! Looking forward to the next videos... Blessings to all ❤
