I love this place. Super cool. The kitchen my favorite. I’d love to see what the various neighborhoods look like Iceland. Wealthy, middle income and working class neighborhoods. ☺️
Love the layout of the apartment,you did a great job 🤎 Hope whoever lives there now enjoys the space you created. All best wishes from Abuja, Nigeria 👋🏽
The apartment looks beautiful. I also like the herringbone pattern. It looks good in bathroom tiles, as a kitchen back splash on the counter and also in a wood floor design. The lighting in the kitchen is a really good touch. And the views of the ocean and the mountains are beautiful. It was good to see the finished and remodeled space. I hope you are doing well. And thank you for sharing with us how the remodeled apartment turned out.
That view out your window in your office is breathtaking Jewells! OMG, just gorgeous where you live in Iceland. I really cannot wait to see what you do next, where and how you will make your next home and all you have to share with us about this gorgeous place. What a beautiful home you created, and I know you will again!
Lovely apartment! The kitchen is my favourite. Sad that you did all that work and had to sell it. I did not know that you and your partner had split up. I hope that doesn't mean you are leaving Iceland, you obviously love it there. My husband and I were in Iceland in May 2022 and fell in love with it too, and are planning a return trip, we live in central Canada. We had an amazing trip thanks to many of your videos!
What a lovely home. I also like the pop of color. I can imagine it having more pops of color if you were living there full time. Onwards and upwards. I hope your new space brings you the same joy!
Ya'll really put a lot of detailed and classy work in that house! 😍I can't wait for the apartment segment, too-are you going to give us a tour of your new place as well!? 💖
I agree, the herringbone shower is clean and sophisticated and at the same time it's a nice touch, being that fish are big portion of the island culture and economy. It's difficult to identify a favorite part of the property, but I'll go with the floorplan that places the kitchen central in the family/friends dynamic, right where it belongs.
Absolutely beautiful and elegant. I just found your channel last week. You do a wonderful showcasing Iceland. You should be part of their tourism industry . Cheers
Love what you did to that space! The kitchen is so beautiful, and both bathrooms are exquisite. I'm biased to the herringbone pattern of the tiles in the main bathroom because we did our shower in the same pattern. I love renovating - seeing the potential of what can be and bringing the vision to life. Please show us more more homes.
Beautiful apartment and the view is amazing! I was really curious to see the end result of the renovation. Seltjarnarnesbær is a bit of a richer area in the city region. I hope your new place is nice as well!
I loved this tour! I love the airiness of the place as well. Also, You'd be a great real estate agent! Would love to see other areas/houses in Iceland too! Thanks for the video!
You have a good eye. You could be an interior designer or flip properties for a living as the property looks so good. I think it was obvious you were quite a creative person.
That house looks amazing to what it looked like before. I like what you did with the kitchen, very nice. The lighting, woah! Looks spacious. Please if possible more on property of all kinds, interesting seeing how they compare to the UK and beyond ☮️❤️
Awesome video tour! Such a beautiful space 😊 I just booked flights for my partner and I to Iceland in September. I am beyond excited! It’s a huge bucket list trip. We haven’t planned anything else so I’ll be looking through all your videos for travel tips and ideas. Best of luck to on your new life chapter! I’m so glad to hear you’ll keep up this channel and still be living in Iceland. ❤
This is beautiful!! I love that Kitchen. I would love to see more houses, I would like to see more house tours, of affordable and expensive homes. I love this!! I am really into interior design.
Beautiful and well renovated home! I think it still has a cozy vibe even though you've kept it, as you say, "blank" on purpose for the buyers! Thank you for sharing! Super interesting! Hugs!
The house is absolutely beautiful, it would have been difficult for me to let go. You asked if we were interested in other videos. Yes.. Affordable "for Iceland" short term and unusual rentals. Some place to relax and work, with a walkable area and vegan friendly food shops. I think when visiting Iceland, finding affordable and cute places is a major issue.
I'm really anxious to remodel my house (built in late 50's). Haven't got much past buying some interior design magazines. My idea is to have a combination of contemporary, but also retro, so it might seem weird. Everything I want to do is pricey!
Remodeling is a big stress so I understand being anxious about it. I think it’s good to let the ideas swirl around in your head for a bit before jumping in. I used Pinterest to help me collect ideas to reference later. 😊
its a nice place to live, its unfortunate that you didn't manage to live there for long, hopefully you manage to find your own space and maybe buy yourself a nice flat or house for the future , good luck in the future with all the judicial and financial issues
You & your ex did a very nice job renovating this apt. Have you ever considered being a home designer? If you ever get tired of the job you are doing now, you should consider being a home designer. 😊
I just bought an apartment downtown... for 88 mil ISK.. In its half of the size :D (640k USD). Its 80sqm2, no ocean view. For this apartment today you can ask around 100-120mil?
Question: I’m flying in to Iceland for a cruise on May 21st for a cruise and visiting the islands. I’m needing help with packing. What should I bring? I’m doing a lot of excursions. Can you help me please. The weather says rain. What do you think? Thank you.
Was the breakup due to his “open relationship” desires, or the stress of creating a new home with the unexpected costs and stress or…?Please forgive me… I’m sincerely curious after just finding your channel that I adore. Of course I don’t expect for you to share anything that you don’t want to. I find you so inspirational and hearing your journey would be helpful to so many. But not at the cost of your peace. Love the content and your light 🥰
I understand that you’re curious but I’m not going to share that information. I’d rather just leave it in the past and move on. 😊 So glad you enjoy my content. 🤗❤️
Why not install an sauna while your doing the renovation, think of how it would be inthe winter with a hot warm sauns bath when it get´s really windy and cold.
Most people go to the swimming pools here and they have saunas. It just doesn’t feel like the most logical investment when we have easy access to them daily.
Hello, Are there any braid shops or black hair salons in Iceland? Is it hard to find products for black people's hair? You did a great job renovating the apartment.
thanks so much for sharing those details! & didn't, at first, realize this was the same home you 2 bought together..and hope you got a fair market sale amount for it.🤞 and is it common there? to have onl 1.5 baths for 3 bedrooms + is it common to not have bathtubs in homes there [apartments or houses]? just thinking about Iceland & hot springs + I believe I imagined there's a way to tap into them for homes?..but maybe they, the local hot springs, don't generate enough natural hot water to serve all in the areas where they exist? but if so, I hope the water itself, at least, would be free to make use of? either way, regarding real estate, I can also see how it would be a bit heartbreaking to sell..but then memories, right? so, I do get it, I think. as one state & city has a lot of memories for me about a marriage that turned out to not be for life..and as living someone does not guarantee it works out.😕🧚🏾♀ and so it was an investment which, perhaps, was helpful for you or both of you to, in order to begin next chapters of your life/lives. and hey, not the most important thing, of course & maybe I somehow, missed it? but if not then: that "pop of blue" in the guest bathroom? please consider showing it in another video? as I was just curious how it was applied to that particular space. & god bless!📿 🙌& as well, the remainder of your life's journey! as I imagine it will have unexpected, beautiful points.. & thank you also for sharing your most special & sometimes, quite vulnerable experiences in your time in Iceland because we're learning a lot from you!👍👍
Thank you! Funny enough, it is common in Iceland to have only 1 bathroom for 3+ bedrooms. We put in a half bath because that is what we had space for. After doing the remodel, I wondered to myself why I didn’t put in a bathtub. 😂 In the end, it was an investment and thankfully it was a positive return for us both. Thank you for you message.
That looks awesome. What a great job you did! Are there many apartments in the building, or is this one of just a few? Is it close to a walkable downtown or do you have to drive if you want to go anywhere? Thanks!
There are many apartments in the whole building but we were in a section that only shared an entrance with one other apartment. It is about 10 minutes driving to downtown and about a 30 minute walk.
Thank you! There are many building supplies stores in Iceland. They are constantly getting shipments from abroad. Sometimes, the materials have to be special ordered. For instance, our counter tops took 6 weeks to arrive from when we ordered them.
what's getting a loan like there (how is creditworthiness determined and what are the terms)? and what's a downpayment like? and how much is typical to budget for upkeep there? how about other fees like (HOA, insurance, taxes)? thanks!
I think there are a couple of ways you can qualify for a loan. Our creditworthiness was based on salaries, our cost of living, and our down payment. It helped that we were selling another property and buying a new one. Every building decides on their own fees, and taxes are based on where you live. I have to look at all the numbers to give you this info.
I really don't mean this in a rude way but you talk too much. Just do one full run through with a short voice over ,then in the end/beginning you can simply give more info on it.The cutting and talking roo much ruined the tour.
Why are you even here if you don't like her style of communication? It's not like there's a shortage of characters on RU-vid doing similar content. Someone should've told to keep it to yourself when you have nothing nice to say. And yes, you come across as rude no matter how much you wanna say you don't mean it. I wonder what you'd sound like if you wanted to be rude, then. Learning to shut up would probably do you good.
@@AllThingsIceland There is nothing wrong with you or your other videos.I have been watching your videos for ages!It's just this video pin literally says "Iceland house tour" but cuts off way too many times with the talking inserts when the talking edits could have simply been edited to be at the beginning, middle or the end (or all 3 respectively). Talking severally in between random moments completely loses the flow of the tour and the flow of the entire video. It is quite literally constructive critism not preference to other creators.
