My brother, Andrew and I bought an old abandoned house in Portugal and spent the next 18 months, along with my wife Cristina and our good friend Detlev, renovating it back to new.
Not going to lie, it was tough, but we got there.
Watch the transformation through my eyes as we went full steam at taking on tasks well out of our comfort zones.
This is a story of perseverance and determination, that I am incredibly proud of our achievement.
My brother has his own RU-vid channel: / @blondguy where you can see his side of the renovation.
Although we did many jobs together, we also did jobs on our own. This is my version of The village house renovation.
Thanks for watching and if you enjoyed, please consider subscribing. This goes a long way in enabling us to continue the journey.

Thanks for the wonderful comments. There seems to be a reoccurring opinion from a few people that the house should have been demolished and rebuilt. The simple answer is, you can’t. Rules and regulations apply. Hope that clears that up.

Strange that the rules would prevent from knocking down the house and rebuilding from scratch. It seems a ridiculous rule. Nevertheless, a job well done …and what was the cost? BTW great camera work and music is good too!

This demonstrates what skill goes into building. I think people often view construction work as fairly menial labor. This video perfectly illustrates that builders are truly craftsmen and artisans!

It’s very easy to totally mess up, waste materials and labour, as well as break expensive tools if someone doesn’t know the ropes. But an experienced craftsman can achieve miracles - as seen in the video 👍🏻🤩

@shermansquires3979 3 месяца назад

Yes, exactly. I have had to work with a few clowns over the years who came into renovation from a non trade background, but thought they knew it all, with their ‘uni’ degree. You can’t be a dimwit and build like these guys.

Now my brother is gone and I am retired on disability but those times are some of the best memories of my life. Great times, and I miss him dearly.

This is one of, if not the most spectacular renovations I have ever seen. Even more incredible it that you did it all in just 18 months with a small team. I can truly appreciate all the work that went into this. Not to mention the broad spectrum of talent held by your small team of folks doing work that would usually involve a small army of specialized tradesmen. Structural, roofing, plumbing, electrical, masonry, tile, counter tops, cabinetry, windows, sheet rock, painting, insulation and probably a few things I missed. Job well done to your team of men and women. It is something to truly be proud of. Had someone shown me this job at the start, I would have run away screaming! 🙂

I cannot believe people would even think of wanting to level this house. I’ve collected and sold antiques over the years and the whole idea is to preserve what can never be duplicated or replaced. What a huge project to undertake but so worth the blood, sweat and tears and in Portugal! I cannot wait to see more.

@eeliejun 3 месяца назад

Tbh, it is for for a couple of reasons people would level it. Cost is one of them. A lot of times it is cheaper and simpler to start again, two is the layout not really working and 3 is that the bricks are old so structure problems can happen in the future because the brick is just decaying. Making it cost more in the future. Not saying it is a bad idea to renovate but sometimes stuff can't be saved or fixed.

@latebloomerabroad 3 месяца назад

At the beginning, I thought it looked like the inside was in much better shape than the outside suggested. But I can see that it would be cheaper to tear it down and build new, if the regulations allowed it. But to me, the entire reason to do this is to keep the old charm that can be saved. And of course, you want the home to blend in with the surrounding homes on the outside at least.

@admontblanc 3 месяца назад

@@eeliejun going by the looks of the brick and mortar that was exposed I bet the original construction was at least over 200 years old, and it seems also like there were at least a couple of previous renovations in the past.

I am watching this slack jawed. I have a lot of familiarity with the construction of American style homes but this is something new to me. Beyond that, the vision and the unending energetic work and willingness to go big is mind-boggling. I never thought I'd see somebody who would say to themselves, " let's renovate this house and tuen it upside down entirely, one room at a time.". You took down the roofs, you took up the floors, you replaced the beams, you put down new floors, you took down walls.... It just didn't seem to end. I lost faith in your vision when the courtyard was an absolute disaster. But just before you put up the words "We have a plan ", on the screen, I decided to trust you a little bit longer.

That was honestly the most inspiring video I’ve watched in ages! I can’t imagine taking on such a project, but you guys turned a wreck into a beautiful home! Thanks for filming it along the way! 😊

Absolutely beautiful work. I am Portuguese and I am so happy to see others enjoying our beautiful country while doing such a beautiful restauration and making the villages alive again. Beautiful traditional house and 5 start finishings. Enjoy the house. ❤🎉

This is so beautifully, collaboratively and passionately done that I watched every second of it as if it's my own village house. Cheers to everyone who contributed to bringing this abandoned house back to Life. 😊👍

Amazing job! And you improved that community as a whole by preserving a piece of their history. Well done!

Thanks for restoring our landscape. The final result looks amazing and really captures Portuguese tradition. With these ridiculous salaries and taxes, regular Portuguese folks don't (and never will) have the capability to do something like this. Hope you enjoy your time here.

It’s sad that the people of Portugal wouldn’t be able to rebuild and own homes like this in their own land. They did a beautiful job but I wonder who can afford the home now?

I was born in Portugal and would love a place like this to fly there on vacations! You also kept the original trace and stone walls in the property instead of tearing it down and building some huge out of proportion big box like most Portuguese have been doing! You made the Village there more pretty as a result! And for that feel like saying a big Obrigada! 😊

Architecture as been slaughtering landscape for the last 30 years. The squared architecture is dominant globally right now.

@rhondajones4812 2 месяца назад

Absolutely love it… especially the tiles on the stairs. I just left Portugal in January. Good job giving the building a new life.

I’m stunned that after watching that amazing transformation (I did skip some bits for time constraints) that there wasn’t a full walkthrough of the finished product. I’m just as stunned, that this wasn’t commented on more. Terrific build all the same. 👍🏼👍🏼

Being part way through our own house renovation in rural Spain (does it ever end?!?!)we can really appreciate the time, effort & skill that you guys put into this project. That is a beautiful house now & the scale of the transformation is breathtaking. Well done, guys.

There's a lot of work and love that went into doing all this. You can tell, it's well thought out. These folks are tight and care about each other. You can tell that they all know what they're doing. They're some of the best folks that construction has to offer nowadays! Good job!

Sorrowfully with the younger generation all knowledge gets lost, they aren't interested in learning. We are so happy our son wanted to stay in his dad's footsteps in the motor trade and is now a Company Director within an established business. with 5 members on board. His future is sound, doing very well, so proud x
