Theo and Bee gave up their busy city lifestyles in 2014 to explore alternative living, and have lived in vans and boats since then without looking back! Along with their cat Ginjey Bear they have been driving around the world in their self converted Sprinter van. However, when the global pandemic hit they began converting their abandoned stone barn in Central Portugal to turn into a wonderful tiny stone cottage. Along the way, they have rescued a playful cat called Furrnando and have a wonderful flock of Chickens!

Who’s excited for this project? Let us know your ideas 💡

@ianleonard2983 7 месяцев назад

200,000 euros renovation costs . Rental income of 1000 euros per week for 25 weeks a year . Takes 8 years to repay the renovation costs before tax !! This is not in my opinion a viable proposition. What do others think ?

@ateliermavi 7 месяцев назад

We can't wait for the first videos about this renovation to come out! 😉An eco-friendly and history friendly renovation like you did on the off-grid property would be great to revive this beautiful ruin! So much potential 🥰

@theindieprojects 7 месяцев назад

@@ianleonard2983200k I feel is definitely on the high side, my calculations are half that. There is a huge value to what already is such a unique property to add in a beautiful rental business ontop. Thanks for your input 🙏

@njnowell 7 месяцев назад

I agree Great idea, to rent it out or a place for you family to stay

@ianleonard2983 7 месяцев назад

Brave Man . Better man than me Guga Din !!!! Best of luck.@@theindieprojects

After seeing what you did with your last stone barn, I have no doubt that you will make this look stunning. Hope you are both well.

Theo, what ever happened to the house you two bought "in town"?

@rnggall9640 7 месяцев назад

So nice to hear the joy in your voice! After everything you learned on your tiny barn house I know you will solve all the challenges that come your way

@theindieprojects 7 месяцев назад

Thank you 🙏

@merklingassoc 7 месяцев назад

Theo, it's just warms my heart to see you so excited about this project. You are a true warrior, you get hit down (Bee too) and you get back up and keep moving forward...no matter the adversity. You asked are we excited about this project, well I am that's for sure.... It was such a joy watching you bring your homestead house from a dark dingy stone barn to the bright beauty it is today. Your knowledge on just about everything astounds me. If anyone can turn this rubble back into a lovely home, you can. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

@beckyleslie4091 7 месяцев назад

Little did you know that the skills you perfected on your first property would serve you well on Miracle Mountain. I realize you are looking at a massive job but you and Bee are well suited to the task before you. Best of luck in restoring this old building to something beautiful for others to enjoy. Thank you for including us on your journey. Be well and all the best to Bee in her recovery. Cheers from Albuquerque, New Mexico!!

@chriss-nf1bd 7 месяцев назад

When the building was built. The Animals would have helped keep the home warm in winter. Animal body heat would have risen to heat the home for the family. They still build like this all over the Middle East.

@colleenlongardner2692 7 месяцев назад

I have no doubts that you'll do everything you have planned. You've already proved your super power...when the going gets tough, the tough get going. Kudos to you Theo and Bea also.

@heathermcnally2576 7 месяцев назад

Wow! if you guys do this like your first property barn, which I am sure you will, I am there! Gorgeous! Heather from Canada

@theindieprojects 7 месяцев назад

That’s the plan! Thank you 🙏

@ginaandino6561 7 месяцев назад

Theo I love the your ideas on renovation. I will enjoy coming on this adventure with you and Bee. It will look beautiful and great way for extra income and sharing your beautiful home with us. Love from Texas ❤

Thanks so much 🙏

@margaretspignardo5588 7 месяцев назад

I love your vision and enthusiasm. ❤ to both of you.

@edtobin4657 7 месяцев назад

Sounds like a great project. I’m always traveling around Portugal in a campervan and love staying a farms and small campgrounds. Perhaps you can dedicate a bathroom with shower and a few level parking spots that can can charge for guests to use in addition to the apartments

@garnetbarkley7482 7 месяцев назад

@edtobin4657 that’s a fantastic idea. I hope they so something like that.

@heatherclayton-callaghan4270 7 месяцев назад

I love this idea 💡

@louisehumphris9516 7 месяцев назад

How about people staying in their own campervans etc & work in exchange of rent/main meal. You would only need a bathroom set up for them. Heck I would travel to Portugal for a month from Australia to stay with you guys and work in exchange 😊

@nanoresmith2697 7 месяцев назад

Love this! 💛 May all your dreams and ideas come to fruition... Theo you and Bea are so hard working... you deserve the good fruits of your labour! Strongz! 💪✨️💛

@garykoblitz4932 7 месяцев назад

Good idea for supplemental income.

@gailferraiolo1476 7 месяцев назад

The property is amazing but so much to take care of for sure a full time job. But to do something you truly enjoy makes it that much more special. Cant wait for you to get started on the new projects. Make small cottages would be super cool. Best regards from America. God Bless dear couple ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

@susanalbone5101 7 месяцев назад

Your excitement is palpable. I can’t wait till you get started. A lot of work over many, many months but if anyone can do it, you can. My regards to Bea and best wishes for her upcoming op and recovery. Take care, be safe. 💕 Dorset, UK

@janehardy2746 7 месяцев назад

Theo what an amazing person you are, i so very much admire all your enthusiasm and how happy you sound. I will look forward to seeing you both working on such an amazing property. Send my love to Bee hope all goes well for her looking forward to her return.

@gregphillips24 7 месяцев назад

I watch a lot of vlogs and rarely comment on any of them but I'm really looking forward to seeing the work you do to this property

@lisamlees 7 месяцев назад

Might I suggest that you consider making the ruined house accessible, if possible, so that people with mobility issues can also visit. As a wheelchair user, it’s always a struggle to find lovely places to stay. Thanks.

@joanmcerlean7158 7 месяцев назад

Oh Theo, of all your many talents, the one that stands out to me most , (from my years of watching you apply your care and creativity,) is Theo the Stone-Man. Can’t wait to watch you work on this amazing stone building and apply your joy of stone.

@kitkat02120 7 месяцев назад

OMG! Theo I am so excited! One suggestion is make the 2 barns into smaller living areas to accommodate more guests. BDW a fissure and a crack is 2 different things, check the lental good, if it a fissure you might be able to fix it using the epoxy blend fabricators use.

@enjaw9479 7 месяцев назад

I see at least two or three apartments for holiday-rental. ❤

@MsJWheels 7 месяцев назад

I would suggest you consider handicapped accessibility in your plans. It can be done without looking institutional and will greatly increase your client base.

@safloyd6903 7 месяцев назад

Fantastic idea to do at least one that would be handicapped accessible!!

@firstmate015 7 месяцев назад

I am so excited to see your smiling face. I hear your enthusiasm for getting started on your air bed and breakfast. It's a beauty and I can see your vision for the future of this ancient original home and barn. Most of all, I'm happy that you are happy again. Tell Bee we love and miss her but we understand she's going through for the sake of her long-term health. Bless you both.

@Lea-bw9wj 7 месяцев назад

A tip for when looking for an architect make sure they are experienced in historic buildings too. It's the history you love of the building. Some nice treasures the old owners left behind.

@Haffy1952 7 месяцев назад

Am sure you have heard of WOOFERS right? Then maybe that would be one avenue you could explore for help on your farm. Those scaffoldings have a lot more life to them, maybe fencing for animals or something. Prayers being sent from Maine to Portugal to both of you guys.

@WINDYJEAN 7 месяцев назад

Very excited for this project. Happy to see you looking well.

Also Martin Doolard just finished renovating a shepherds summerhouse in the Italian Alps- it has a stone roof on it like your ‘doghouse’! Italy, France, and Portugal! All sharing building styles based on building materials

@wolfgangwust5883 7 месяцев назад

Having been to Portugal dozens of times I developed a fear of wildfires. Personally, I would avoid areas affected by this hazard. Wishing all the best!

@theindieprojects 7 месяцев назад

Fair enough, But I will not live in fear.

@gandrade0501 7 месяцев назад

Super excited to see your next project. You are so talented and I hope that Bee is doing well.

@theindieprojects 7 месяцев назад

Thanks!

@reallynotpc 7 месяцев назад

I think you might start referring to "the Miracle Mountain Estate"! That heap of big stones makes me wonder whether a previous owner had plans to put up another house.

@theindieprojects 7 месяцев назад

The big stones are from the house we live in, that was also a big stone house that they completely re built.

@Ana-oc5ip 7 месяцев назад

Theo please go to Escape to Rural France. If you haven't seen him already. Dan is rebuilding a burnt down Chateau. His work on the place may inspire you and give you ideas for rebuilding your place. Wishing you guys the best of luck. ❤

@dominiquelafaille389 7 месяцев назад

Théo. Your positive attitude is totally contagious! I just love everything you have in mind for this massive project! Your barn conversion is the perfect exemple of your drive and capability to accomplish this project. Sending ❤ to both of you from 🇨🇦.

@bernedicte5860 7 месяцев назад

i think that having 2 rental properties of 90 m2 each would bring more benefits rapidly

@beverlysmith9854 7 месяцев назад

So excited to see you start this stone house revival! ❤ Admire your perservance. What a perfect name for this beautiful place, Miracle Mountian.

@cheryleddy5677 7 месяцев назад

In my Much Younger days, I spent $400.00 US to go help work on a Earth House here in the states. It lasted 4 weeks and we camped in tents, had out houses, took baths in the river and learned Alot about Earth Homes, building, electrical, solar, brick making...it was a blast. You might consider something like that to get help to rebuild that massive stone building....plus you will be teaching others about reuse and repurpose, and living off grid.

@jeanetteshawredden5643 7 месяцев назад

Theo you have so much energy and patience to tackle a HUGE new renovation project.😊 I look forward to seeing your labor of love.❤

@darksarcasm4835 7 месяцев назад

@clone_commandernayo5435 7 месяцев назад

so happy that you are such a strong force Theo, keeping the dream real ! Bless you and Bee and all your animals !

@lorimontcalm9086 7 месяцев назад

Wow!! How are you not just totally overwhelmed? Your last project leaves us knowing precisely what you and Bee are capable of. No doubt it will be stunning. May I please request that you build it to today's accessibility standards. Too often people with disabilities can't travel because finding accommodation is too difficult. We travel with friends and family. Hugs from 🇨🇦 to you both.

@martythomas9402 7 месяцев назад

How exciting to be able to visit and stay on miracle mountain…you have a real impressive job ahead of you.. more power to you Theo and love and healing to Bea

@edithp.7213 7 месяцев назад

This will be an exciting project to follow, although I couldn’t help but think of your first off-grid property….the back wall was leaking and needed to be rendered last we saw. What’s to become of it after you put so much blood sweat and tears into it? Keep it? Sell it? Maybe you can address it as I’m sure I’m not the only one wondering.

@brendahogue5487 7 месяцев назад

Love your videos and enjoy watching them. May the lord bless and protect you and Bea and the renovation of the stone house

@sherryhamlin2068 7 месяцев назад

I have been following you for a long time…so I have TOTAL confidence that you and Bee are going to create something Phenomenal with that huge stone building! Fifty-seven acres of Indefinite fun and improvements….what an Incredible experience for all of US watching YOU and BEE create your slice of heaven ( on earth) !!!👍🙏🙌👏

@1on1nz 7 месяцев назад

1 area could be a cheese making / preserving workshop area for Bea & Guests.

@nancibishof6462 7 месяцев назад

The heat damaged stone walls could be rebuilt with a block wall that you face the exterior with stone so it retains the character. I wouldn't trust the large cracked lintel as if it fails that is too much weight to come crashing down and the walls above it with it. If you can dig down to give additional height on the RDC level it would be good but you may need a foundation under the walls to do that. The end barn with the single slopped roof could become a garage for the house.

@anewlifeinportugal 7 месяцев назад

Makes my barn look tiny 😅 cant wait to see you smash it and make it the castle it deserves to be ❤

@theindieprojects 7 месяцев назад

Thank you bro 🙏

@pilpelet100 7 месяцев назад

Well, you and Bee did a beautiful job on the small building on your other property. I look forward to seeing what you do with this. Good luck. Blessings and prayers to Bee for a full recovery.

@eved7394 7 месяцев назад

As beautiful it is as a "ruin", it will be magnificent once you restore the way you want it. Love hearing your excitement! For those old wheel barrows and cement mixer, I know you cant use them for their original purpose but they would make some beautiful old planters. Looking forward to the journey!

@neutonrenda2303 7 месяцев назад

Love that you'll be restoring the old stone house, it's really beautiful. Can't imagine how you guys felt after the fire, but you can use that to make it even better. The idea of letting subscribers hire it for a stay sounds great, looking forward to see how the house transforms.👍❤

@kitchenworker446 7 месяцев назад

i love your enthusiasm Theo...you are always soooo positive, even in the face of all the stuff that has happened you are STILL excited and fired up. you are an example to any quitters!!

@terrytarr5531 7 месяцев назад

Haven't watched yet, but had to say immediately......... so good to see you! And now to watch what's been transpiring. Love to the lovely Bee, before I even see your update!!🥰

@mikeduda3173 7 месяцев назад

Can't wait for this project to begin. Everything you learned at the barn will be so useful. I'm glad you're checking the structural integrity of the stones. Best wishes to Bea.

@sue7190 7 месяцев назад

Hi Theo, what an exciting project. It might be worth you talking to Scotters go off grid, eho live close to the Newbys. They are rebuilding an old stone house of very similar construction and have been using local groundworkers and stonemason to build an extension. Watching them work with the enormous stones is mesmerising. Their latest video released on Sunday is great and an earlier one where the groundworkers and Mason built massive walls to support a kitchen extension. ❤ love to you both.

@andreaamer1183 7 месяцев назад

If ANYONE can rebuild this , you can! You will keep the history as much as possible. It will be beautiful ❤

@niknoks6387 7 месяцев назад

Hi from the UK I hope Bea is doing ok and we can see you both back at Miracle mountain soon ❤️🇬🇧

@angelapriddy6308 7 месяцев назад

@roscoemc3 7 месяцев назад

Sending positive love to Bee, she is missed, I love watching her feed the animals ..how her veg garden is getting on….and most of all her smiling face ❤

@sunnywatson2696 7 месяцев назад

Hello, I think the two barns should be made into a pantry or root caller for preserving foods and the other one into a large kitchen to dobthe preserving in the extend the second floor over the two barns with a porch in front with 2 living areas for guest. Then you can have an attic bed room and two smaller bed rooms and a bathroom and a main living room and table area. This would allow for processing the fruit trees and storing the produce easier and having guest rent out space to come and visit you.

@lplmnl6229 7 месяцев назад

Yeah! Finally more real renovation of the old history of the past... I will be watching again. Whatever happened to the little house? Do you still own the other property?

@lindakelly6444 7 месяцев назад

@davidcharnes9161 7 месяцев назад

Theo, I renovated a 500-year old apartment in Italy. I put in a skylight which brings in more light than any window in the place. I would strongly recommend a skylight or two.

@deannademarco5410 7 месяцев назад

Bee you are so missed and hope you will be back soon. Theo you are such a hard working man and creative genius. I can't wait to see what unfolds especially with all your talents. Count Mark and I as your first guest and one's that will help you where needed. A working/Learning Farming/Building/Cooking/Jarring with you and Bee would be awesome. And what a great way to make income for you both,

@terrynewell8968 7 месяцев назад

The only advice I have is to make a sleeping area and bathroom on the main floor for elderly or handicapped customers.

@MsJWheels 7 месяцев назад

It is possible to have handicapped or wheelchair accessibility while still honoring the history of the place.

@kjspe971 7 месяцев назад

Refurb two barn stalls into micro room for tool storage and/or get income going while working on the rest of the structure....possible intern room to help with refurbish

@soniawoolley366 7 месяцев назад

As the avid gardener, the only way to keep the oak tree long term is to keep it trimmed, bonsai 'd so to speak. otherwise the roots of it will start moving the building. It would be a lovely feature around the oak once u start the cleaning up of it and would keep the oak in good health with some love and attention. Can't wait to see u bring this building back to life as u did your off grid stone home ...

@cherylverhelst8245 7 месяцев назад

So wonderful to see you excited about this project. That sure is a wonderful old building. I know you will restore it to its previous beauty. I hope Bee is doing well. Prayers for the two of you.

@dorabort6622 7 месяцев назад

I want to move in with you guys! I promise I’ll keep my room clean and help Bee! Really you do have a beautiful property and no one deserves it more than you two! I’m happy to see someone who loves their land like you two do!

@emmyholmes780 7 месяцев назад

Sounds like a fun project! I know how beautiful the last barn/house conversion went, so I am sure this will be lovely when it's completed. Glad to see you, Theo. Tell Bee hi and hope she is doing well with her surgery stuff. I would work your way into the house, clean up the outside then in. Start with the less crowded room first to give yourself/selves space to work. Love you and best wishes!

@anneliesjoss 7 месяцев назад

Theo, you are such an inspiration. I’m so excited to see how you’ll bring new life to that very old house. Bee, as you can see here, we are all wishing you time to heal, and we’ll be here, whenever you’re ready to come back. You are loved by so many 🧡

@CMCrockett 7 месяцев назад

Basement dining/kitchen with a large common room above. 2 rooms for couples and a 4-person bunkroom in the middle section. The worst part can be torn down to where it can be stabilized. Then build a post and beam pavilion within the ruin.

@kennethrush9363 7 месяцев назад

And I know you will do all though job after watching you and bee the last two and half years what you done to the little house and land and what done here already is fantastic. Hope bee is getting on ok back here in the uk and HOPE yOu ARE OK THERE on your own as well take care 👍👍

@chantillyvintage 7 месяцев назад

New projects are exciting. Just remember, the more irons you have in the fire, the harder they are to manage. A new project adding to the emotional, physical & financial stress of all the other unfinished projects on this new property and your old property is just adding fuel to the fire. But I guess subscribers do like renovation projects. I’ve watched you from the beginning and I just don’t want to see you burn yourselves out just for views. I wish you luck and please remember to take care of yourselves first.❤❤❤
