Here on my channel, I am renovating a 250 year old stone cottage on my property in Normandy, France. By using traditional, low-waste and off-grid methods, I'm aiming to keep the charm and character of this old building, and turn it into a furnished, finished home for family whilst keeping environmental impact as low as possible. There will also be content on living in France, visiting beautiful rural places, hunting for antiques, gardening, and more! Hit subscribe if you would like to keep up with my journey, and hit the notification bell to be alerted when we go LIVE where we have a first viewing of the video as it is published with a live chat so I can answer all your questions! See you in Sean's World.

I just love how you plan a project and then look around your place and try to use what you already have. I admire that mindset so much!

@Ruth-uj1dm 10 дней назад

Ditto.

@lizzymoore54 10 дней назад

Recycling at its finest. You’ve done a fantastic job, all round Sean. I know your wife and son are so proud of you ! Always the outside of the box thinker and gentleman. 😊

@Seans_World 10 дней назад

Thanks 👍

@jackiep691 10 дней назад

I like that you alway find exactly what looks right laying around and repurpose it . ❤

@nualarosth8448 10 дней назад

I really think that it would be money well spent to get the same pavers as you have started with in front of the other cottages

@SecondlookNZ 10 дней назад

I vote big slabs as its more consistent with the other ones. Save the smaller ones for the greenhouse. Looking good though!

@diannedutton6127 10 дней назад

Just by removing the tree made it look so much better!

@sniderspider7034 10 дней назад

What a build! I like seeing your wheels a turning as you figure things out, how you remember where things are is a mystery, especially when what you want is usually at the bottom of a pile! I really enjoyed today with the breezes and doves cooing in the background.

@sharonheron7559 10 дней назад

Your property has its own small reclamation yard! Can’t wait to see the finished result. HQ was right in her observation ❤

@marilynwade9448 10 дней назад

Those smooth tiles look more suitable for inside work.

@lynnmahoney6283 10 дней назад

Yes, they look out of place there.

@sandifoster8782 9 дней назад

yes, use bigger tiles..

@mandyedgar4663 9 дней назад

I think those tiles are going to be a hazzard for your paying guests in wet weather just my opinion sorry

@hiltonr1845 10 дней назад

I would stick with the same pavers as before Sean and use the small tiles elsewhere

@nualarosth8448 10 дней назад

I totally agree 👍

@daynight4902 10 дней назад

Best

@nicolinavincelli9369 10 дней назад

What a difference a little dirt and time make, just amazing, thank you for sharing.

@marysell6184 10 дней назад

Another very interesting project, Sean! Well done. Looking forward to seeing the finished transformation of the amazing patio garden area.

@janeblandford852 10 дней назад

The front of the cottages have come a long way Sean from the day you first started. You should show a before and after shot of the entire front. It looks so cleaned up and inviting now. I know you have some tiles in front....but it still looks so good!!

@stephaniegaromon3244 10 дней назад

I think it’s going to be a very pretty patio that compliments the beautiful stone building. Fun video. Thank you Sean. ❤

@lisajahn6839 10 дней назад

Excellent episode! Thank you all! Be well, stay safe all. 😊❤🎉👍💖🥰

@michaelthornley 10 дней назад

Well done and much better Sean. I must say I am with Sam and my OCD living on a building site for years would have worked overtime! (laughing at myself here). Yet having said that at least the roof tiles are nicely place hahaha.... HOWEVER, I admire the hard work that you do brother and just having a laugh together :)

@SweetOne. 9 дней назад

I think HQ will approve, gets the patio done and uses up a pile of tiles getting them out of the way. Well done!

@annfinnegan2791 10 дней назад

I wouldnt use those small tiles .the other larger tiles youve been using would look better .

@chrisfrear8933 10 дней назад

What a sweet little window with 20 panes!

@BA-ef4pr 10 дней назад

I love the red tiles! Cheers from California

@normamurray4450 8 дней назад

What a transformation! I love your creativity.

@SylviaSchenkelsvan57 10 дней назад

Great work again Sean! It's always good to re-use what you have. Well done!💋

@juliemix3373 10 дней назад

Sean, this is such a neat transformation idea. It looks much better already. You always have such good ideas. Cheers

@sallyhook798 10 дней назад

Not very keen on the small tiles Sean. They aren't in keeping with the old cottage. I understand the need to re-use things but they'd be better in the greenhouse. Keep up the good work. 😊

@Seans_World 9 дней назад

Enough to do greenhouse aswell

@treehuggingmusician595 10 дней назад

I think the small tiles and wooden beams will turn into a beautiful, unique patio that's goes perfectly with the stone building.

@cheriesharp234 10 дней назад

Love the tiles and beams. X

@sharonjackson1445 10 дней назад

The stones are Perfect for the Patio Sean. Nice Color.😊

@TheCrusader50 10 дней назад

I love the idea of repurposing stuff Sean but I like consistency too do I think you should go with slabs as that will match what you have along the length of the buildings already.

@pfolmo 10 дней назад

Love what u r doing. As u r asking, I think using the same slabs u have used for the other cottages would look nicer xxx

@Ruth-uj1dm 10 дней назад

I like those tiles for the seating area. Yes they're smaller, but they add some nice color to the area. Nice find Sean. Mind your back please.

@peterwhite9261 10 дней назад

Sean, I love how you go shopping in your outdoor garden and come up with what you need. The patio will be beautiful when you are done.❤

@TerriJansma-dn8go 10 дней назад

You must keep HQ happy! Orders from on high take precedence over everything else. So funny!

@serenityphotographs 10 дней назад

Oh my… what would we do if Sam wasn’t there to keep you in check Sean…lol

@janetwhitney233 9 дней назад

Yes Sean the architectural elements of the end cottage are awesome,right down to the grated window. I just love the way it looks.

@BettyKoehler-zg5sv 10 дней назад

Sean, the tiles looks really nice on your “new” patio. I hope you have enough to finish! I must say, you are a good husband to do what Sam would like done! When the wife is happy, all is right with the world! Love from Pennsylvania, USA💕🌷🐻

@nelleg152 10 дней назад

Its great you reuse when possible ❤

@mitchsaraheggers 10 дней назад

Hi Sean’s World. Always enjoy your videos

@GoldenLady9779 10 дней назад

Looks really nice 😄

@ansis86 10 дней назад

I have admit I don’t really like those tiles there, they’re too small in comparison to everything else around them, they dont have the rustic natural look you’ve used everywhere else, and they just look like indoor tiles. But they are free so I guess that’s a big plus in their favour!

@janetmackinnon3411 10 дней назад

You get so much done! But be careful of your back, please.

@shanerowe1282 10 дней назад

Sean, it would look better if you kept the path consistent by using the same paving stones as you already have in place

@TheHugobobo 10 дней назад

You make it look so easy Sean!

@archiebald4717 10 дней назад

Amazing!

@ruthscott5166 10 дней назад

Nice project, Sean. So glad you removed the elderberry tree - I remember you had a wasp issue with it last year. Can't wait to see what you decide to do. Cheers!

@janamathis4729 10 дней назад

That's a nice old tool/implement you have in the doorway behind the area you are working. Expect no less from you!!

@MaryDiplock 10 дней назад

The color of the tile doesn't complment the soft colors of the stone...in fact it really clashes

@dyannejohnson6184 10 дней назад

Must be very satisfying to stand back and see how nice the whole length of the drive looks…..oh my goodness those tiles are absolutely gorgeous!

@josephinebrown7827 10 дней назад

Loved this video thank you ❤

@creative227 День назад

I do my projects this way too. I prefer to use what I have and my friends know what casts offs they have to send my way. I tuck them away knowing I’ll find a use for them at some point! More plants to soften the edges will improve the look and fit perfectly with the cottage. I love the aesthetic of the rustic European look.

@DemelzaBoing 10 дней назад

Greetings Sean.

@sandradrees5499 3 дня назад

Love what you do Sean! The tiles are a great choice as they bring out the lovely red tones in the stone walls of the building. Good job. Lokking forward to seeing it finished. Well done 👏👏👏

Elderberry Bush with berries equals Elderberry Wine. Aww geez its a bugga bein old. I remember and old black and white movie from the 1944. Arsenic and Old Lace. Cary Grant I believe.

@annettewalter2273 9 дней назад

I think your Commanding Officer has a good eye Sean. I see things like that and it niggles until I do it. Being 81 years old I have to pick my days but I get things done, sometimes with some help from my Brother and SIL.

@Mej_Javiky 7 дней назад

@paulsackett3613 10 дней назад

Save the tiles for the greenhouse. Just put in chat/shingle for now and keep your eyes open for a farmer or builder with excess rocks.

@Seans_World 9 дней назад

Not as common as l would hope

@gardenlady1293 10 дней назад

You can replant the elder by putting cuttings with at least two nodes on them in the ground where you want an elder hedgeto grow. Great job!

@etoileswart3476 10 дней назад

Hi Sean ,following you for a long time.I am jealous when you go to a boulangerie to get croissants and coffee. But if I can make a suggestion, please use the beautiful small tiles with cement ,inside and get larger tiles or stones for outside. For more stability and durability. But what do I know.

@lynnmahoney6283 10 дней назад

Will look much better to see the rock wall, of the building side, instead of the “shack looking” lean to. Been waiting for that to come down.

@Seans_World 9 дней назад

Me too but for now it's important dry storage

@jbart5260 10 дней назад

I love how you reuse and repurpose.

@gwenlillianlondon3772 10 дней назад

I do like the recycling that you do. I always scout around the garden, back of shed etc to see what I have that can be utlised. Will you have enough tiles to extend across the side patio later, from that path? PS: what is "heighth" 🤣😂😁

@cecoya 10 дней назад

This small patio area is going to look great when finished. I do love the tiles you have there currently as well. A nice oasis when it comes to looking out at the sunrise or sunset drinking tea with friends and/or family. Great job Sean and have a great day

Didn't Tom get the rock garden planted in time for you to start harvesting rocks for all your projects. I have my own parking space at the building supply. If you leave the roof on the lean to you will have a covered patio.

@mostlyinterested1016 9 дней назад

Glad to see the Minister of Home Affairs stepped in and ordered the patio remediation. Hate to see you get fired, Sean.

5:05; can you spray it with some 30 % vinegar? it worked on the violently invasive bermuda grass that tried to conquer my garden here in oklahoma. victoriam invasionis!

@smgreenartsprivate 8 дней назад

I thought you were using those tiles in the cottage? unsure those will cope well outside though and won't match with your other paving work. I had thought the end bits were actually where you lived and it wasn't empty. Having the ground raised a bit will protect the cottage from flooding. This work will at least help you on your way when you are renovating this half of the property.

@lindachenoweth9002 10 дней назад

Oh, Sean, just dig up as much root as you can of the Elderberry and plant it in a different spot! No need to lose the plant! I HATE IVY!! Awesome job on your project! Look-in good!

@danajhasalvegas5819 10 дней назад

I'm hooked, your videos popped up on my feed. You sir, are a incredible builder. What a terrific "up-cycled" video. The cottage is just beautiful. To create this patio.... I love it 🎉
