my first HOUSE TOUR as a home owner [living solo in Cambridge in my twenties] 

A lot of my favourite studytubers just kind of stop posting when they transition from uni into the workforce and I am left rewatching their old content over and over again - thank you Paige for keeping your channel alive!

She’s living the ultimate dream of all young people in their twenties : A great career ahead, an income to make an independent living and most importantly, a home you could truly live on your own terms without nagging parents or difficult roommates. It’s rather hard not to be envious of her circumstances.

Congrats! First house in your early twenties is very impressive. #goals

It's so pretty, I remember watching you when I was in 9th grade, living with so many people in University but now you own a house. I feel proud ☺️

Love your house! Could you make a video about saving up for a house and the process of buying one maybe? That would be really interesting and helpful!

Hey Paige, this is such a cute house! So cool to see how you turned it into yours by adding your own style to it and making the best out of the space you got. Love this kind of content hoping to see more of it!

Hi Paige! I adore your house! I'm studying for my law entrance exam, and I've been rewatching all your Cambridge "Day in the Life" videos whenever I need motivation. It's incredible to see how far you've come and how much you've achieved. All the very best to you. Love from India.

Ok I'm so glad I watched this because that style of light in the lounge might solve a lighting problem I'm having. It offers light in multiple directions with one fixture which means it won't be overly bright either but evenly lit! Also, this was a lovely tour. It seems like it feels like home with the cute personal touches like the pooh bear bowls and mittens and the little doggie doorstop and the photos. The most important thing is that you're settled, comfortable, and safe.

I have been following you since your very first video and it makes me so happy to see you succeeding in your career ❤

Congratulations PaigeY. You have come so far in this journey and we've been with you in all the ups and downs. Best of luck. 12-2-23

I find UK homes so interesting! We typically have closets or walk in closets as a separate room or space with a door in the US instead of wardrobes. Love your cute little home, Paige! Would love more house content! ❤

Congrats on the house, Paige :)! I like the colour of the kitchen and bathroom. My only suggested change/upgrade would maybe be another railing for the other side of your stairs. Since the stairs are so open, and the current railing looks quite minimal, an additional railing could offer some safety as something to grab onto in case of a stumble/fall (falling from stair #5 down to the wood floor, or even sideways onto the glass coffee table, could be quite unpleasant!) All the best!

I've been avidly watching your videos, as my son has just had an offer from Downing to study medicine. Good luck with your new job and thank you for all the insights in to Cambridge life.

Home is the comfiest place to be - WP. Keeping a handheld vacuum in the pantry is useful to do small cleanups quickly. The galaxy projector is a cool item! Nice vogue house tour and well done on buying your house and making it a home 👏.

Amazing house tour and well done for all you have achieved

Your house is sooo cosy !! Love it. ❤

Beautiful house! Congratulations! Wish you be better🥰

Thank you for keeping posting after your degree❣️ I’m your follower from Italy! I like your house!! Francesca

Paige, your house is beautiful! Buying a house is really a good decision!😊😊

Omg! Congrats you deserve more! I recently purchased mine last two months paid in cash. Watching this video makes me feel very proud of who I am and of what I’ve accomplished. I’m glad I made a wise financial choice that changed me. Sending you good and positive vibes .❤️

It looks stunning:) loved the tour

love the kitchen!! very soothing color palette

Congratulations Paige!

Congratulations Paige, well done

Your house is lovely Paige and you’ve made it so cosy. As a fellow short person I put things that don’t get used as often on the top shelves off cupboards. I’ve got a little step stool that folds down flat and can be easily stored for when I need it.

I loooove the toaster and kettle set

your house is beautifulll, love the pink

Paige your house is so beautiful! So happy for you! 😍 A few suggestions: You can print some images, photos or even quotes and hang on the wall where the stairs are. Fulfills more the wall and looks really nice, You can add a few plants (natural or artificial) - gives a nice touch to every home On the bathroom, on the cabinet you can buy storage boxes or even a stroller to put below the water heater so you can easily organize stuff. One idea is also to paint some walls in the house with a different colour, for example, the wall on the room where the bed is. Paint is not super expensive and gives a new vibe to the room. But don't need to rush, things are expensive, I've got my house for 2 years and I still have things to buy.. take you time, you're house is amazing! Enjoy your house and all the success for you! Big hug from Portugal 💜😘

i love this!!

I love the house. Since you said it gets quite cold, I'd recommend checking and possibly renewing all the seals(?) around your windows and entrance door. Good seals can make such a difference. Here in Germany we are very meticulous about those things because it can save you money :-D

I love your new home! The cupboards in my kitchen are also really high. I ordered a fold away step from Amazon so I can now reach the top cupboards when I need to, it might be worth ordering one if you think it will be helpful! :))

It’s a lovely flat but I would make the wall between the kitchen and living room solid. It wouldn’t cost a lot but would make the downstairs look less like a bedsit. You could put open shelves on either side with plants or interesting things in. Definitely think about a loft conversion as that could become your office and free up the downstairs to be a larger living/dining space.

I'd put up a curtain to hide the stored stuff under the stairs, that would make it more cozy and calm. I'd also get some plants :)

I gasped at the pantry 😍

OMG! Sooo much love from Pakistan ❤️ been following your vlogs since you were a student

Oh my God. What a pretty house❤️😍

Already follow your journey since got accepted to cambridge and now seeing you succeed in realizing your dream, I feel happy too. Your house look so pretty, though ❤

Heyy, have a nice living in your new home :)

Great house tour, love the engaging style of your presentation. Only thing I can say is get unit to fit under stairs to store your clarinet and saxophone. Also think about installing a combination card boiler and radiators to warm the house and f

Loved the house tour! I noticed you used a suitcase ribbon (20:05)

Hi Paige.. can you make a video with your detailed study planning, how you schedule studying in between work and your whole schedule until exam day. It would be very helpful ❤️

LOVE your new home! A couple of suggestions ... Try larger artwork on the walls and when hanging smaller items, create a grouping to fill out the space. There are some really cool websites that have very affordable art and frames.

Your storage heaters more than likely work off Economy 7, which is at a cheaper night rate. I keep mine at 3 on the input dial, a modest warmth but yes when it gets very cold, if you turn up to 3.25 and higher...then you start to drink the electricity. I like to let all the heat out so put output up to 5. For some odd reason, mine then seem to come back in at 5pm...drawing off the heat still in the fire bricks. One difference to you, I have a wood burner also which is nice and cosy from 3pm.

Love how you gave the hose persenallety trough your pinks/ winnie the pooh/ ect. Do you have a garden?

Nice house. I love the light fixtures. I also like that you have everything you need in the house without too much clutter. Your parents should be so proud of you. You have reused everything you have previously owned and you have bought second hand furniture as well. The chairs from your family friend are very cute. Get a step stool and use all the kitchen cabinets for storage.

love your house! can you make a video about how you edit your video so that we can learn from you!

I recognize Vee’s book from your shelf! Makes one wonder if you two have ever met, I think you’d make great friends 😊

Amazing House Paige thanks for sharing 👍

You work for my dad’s company, he told me to watch you videos as we’re at similar stages in life (although trying to qualify in different things) and I’m not ready to buy for another year haha! I’ll see you at some point I’m sure, good luck with everything xxx

Thank you for sharing Paige love it love the me to you teddy love it all 👍😊❤️

Houses in Cambridge are soo expensive so well done Paige. The house is lovely 😍

Congrats Paige. Beautiful house

Great vid. Could you also add the link of the backpack?

I love your house...seriously ❤️😊🌸

Paige, your house looks very nice. Do you clean the house or do you get somebody to do it? Are there rooms in the attic which you were talking about? I loved your diploma which is on the wall. I have five hung up on my bedroom wall.

Best House tour on RU-vid

Wow. Your house is so pretty and well put together

Love it! x

I love the house . I wish i can buy one too oneday

Please can you do a video about how you get a mortgage/how much deposit you needed etc as it would be really helpful

Seeing you in your own house after a dorm in cambridge is certainly a huge leap! So proud! xoxo

How do you warm the house? What type of heating do you use?

Pink Is never too much 😊😋❤️

Really lovely!

Ddn't Lydia give you the bedding when she went to Canada?

Babe you are living my dream. You are quite the inspiration. I work at a low parts job currently. Hopefully I'll be able to earn enough to afford a house soon.

But was there uproar at your old house when you took away your pink curtains?

The house certainly feels very student-y.

I was anticipating more pink hehehe btw looks like the old broken desk lamp has been replaced 😢 anyway nice house, paige!

Lovely! :)

congrats. whats the rough price of a place like this?

Two thumbs up

I would put in craftsman (off) white paneling in the downstairs living room on the bottom half of the wall. On the top half same color framing to create “plain” (just wall) panels where I would put textured pale pink wallpaper to match your aesthetic I would also get a custom cut triangular white panel to cover the storage area below the stairs I would find a way to feature the coffee tables more - those are really nice I would put a plant in the window next to the dining table. Even a fake plant, if you are not good at watering. Personally, I would move the desk to the window where the round table is, so that when you sit down on the sofa to relax you won’t be staring at work. Then you could move the tv over and create a more relaxing entertainment area I would put a rectangular high top table in the kitchen by the dryer and dine there Bedroom: Lose the bean bag. Only taking up room Put a dressing table in the bean bag space, so you can sit and do your makeup, and store 90 percent of the items on top of the dresser there Get a built in wardrobe . It will look much better and give you more storage so you can get that suitcase out of the middle of your room Storage closets: get some inexpensive shelving units from Amazon or Ikea so you can organize those areas better Loft conversion: Hold off on that until you get the entire house furnished and decorated to an elevated level. That will add value without disrupting your life The loft conversion would probably cost more than you think and disrupt your work from home and your studying Kitchen: Buy a small, foldable step stool to reach top steps. Store in pantry Spices: Spices are expensive! Buy two staple spices every time you go to the grocery store. Within five trips you will have the basics and won’t feel the pain so much You can also order much nicer spices on Amazon (at least here in the US). Get a set of matching jars and a label maker to keep your spice storage looking clean and organized I use / order ground spices as much as possible. I think they are more flavorful Keep your spices in alphabetical order so you don’t accidentally buy a spice you already own. Definitely speaking from experience on that one 😅😂

Lovely house and it’s so inspiring but why on earth do you have loafs of bread on your fridge?

Love from India🇮🇳

1 month already from the last video.. update please

Hi . I am a cameroonian student completing a bachelor degree of fundamental mathematics this summer from a non acredited university (university of Yaoundé 1), therefore il will start writting my actuarial exams on september and i have some questions for you . Is it possible toi study well for these exams only with core reading provided by the ifoa and the old exams paper ? I heard about mentorship and i want to know if i can have a mentor outside my country . The only ifoa's subject covered during my Bachelor studies is cs1 but i would like to know if it IS possible to merge many curicula (probabilities , descriptives statistics and inferencial statistics taught at 100 and 200 levels) to apply to exemption for this paper . Is the Bachelor degree+exams enough to be attractive on the job market ? Good Luck for your next exams if you have not already completed your fellowship . Hopefull you will reply to my questions and sorry for my written language, i'm still learning to speak in english

Nice house.

what's the EPC? 🙂

Do you have much of a garden?

Do you have a garage?

so do you have a power drill for the shelf? love the house

Hope we can be friends 😊

You keep bread in the fridge, and worcester source in the pantry. How the other half live. 😁😁

Hello, I have been following you for a long time. There was a very strong earthquake in Turkey, 24617 people died and 15 million people were affected. People here need all the help from the world. Please share and let more people hear our voice.

Hole punch and stapler.. Very Retro. Isn't work, even if remote based, all online now in 2023?

its not safely to put yo office electronics in front of door..... i love youuuu btw

Get plants here Paige

well no aeroplanes in a "five" minute lot , not that much of dog's at some walks , nightbors which are not party addicted etc... good decision 🤗

Thas is not your home it is the bank unless you pay the whole price

Skąd masz na to pieniądze?

I'm first

So you ARE a gamer, big chair in front of the tv with your Nintendo Switch plugged in.. Work?? yeah right

To be honest the house woul not suit me. I am not keen on houses that open staight into the lounge with no downstairs hallway but hey ho its not my house its yours so I guess you like it or you would not haee bought it. I also would not purchae a house with just a shower. Just my two preferences really. I havee never liked showers and only use them on holiday

This reminds me of your old desk tour when you began Jesus College 😝👍🏼
