You said at the end the video that you like being around people and giving house tours. I'd love to take a tour of this house and meet the bad ass guy that built it!
What a masterpiece
Very inspiring ! ❤ thank you
Very nice!
❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤
Roy would you be willing to consult for a fee?
Nice, build by one man, one strong man. Wow.
I have no idea if you still check the comments Roy but congrats on a succesfull build and the many years of good living it has provided. A quick question what variety of wood is that from the neighbours barn and is it stained? Slainte Tariq
I appreciate the comments. The wood is southern yellow pine from my neighbors old barn. The cut edges are stained walnut. Most of it is just coated with a clear water based varnish.
@@roy_hayward1679 Hi Roy thankyou for the response and we appreciate the videos. Slainte Tariq.
Can't wait to build , thanks for the perfect idea
Back when you could actually buy land an build a house
You can still do it today. And it will not be easy! You will have to sacrifice! I doubt that it will be any harder for you than it was for me. I left home to join the Air Force just out of high school with just one suitcase. Not a set. Just one suitcase full of my belongings.
I am trying to get this video on eBay so that I can sell this excavator
Love it, thanks for some ideas
I am glad that you got some ideas from it.
Phenomenal, thank you for sharing this
Thank you for the nice comment Tony
Beautifully designed and executed. My dream home. I’d change the course of the above ground stream to run through the centre of my house, along aqueducts on raised knee walls, ending up in a small pond in the middle of the living room, and then continuing down and out toward the front of the house, say into a garden
Thanks for the nice comment. Chris T. To help prevent other people from making the same mistakes that I did with this house, I will mention a couple of things. I originally ran the rather small trickle of water through pipes to a stepped waterfall, spilling into the pool. I thought that it would produce tranquil sound to be heard in the bedroom next to the pool. I had to turn it off because my wife said it sounded like someone peeing into the pool. I have to keep the pool, drained most of the time because of the humidity. At one time there were seven different species of mushrooms, growing in the bathroom. I have to run two different dehumidifiers to deal with the humidity even with the pool dry. Good luck with any project you might be planning.
Thank you so much. My favorite part was you said the bedroom is "really quiet." In suburbia and cities it seems so hard to find quiet
Beautiful artistry! Incredibly taxing labor to bring this design to completion.
Thank you for the views
An underground house makes so much more sense. Cooling/Heating minimal... you can always catch rainwater, no spring needed, if you simply build a porch/entertainment/storage area on top with any kind of roof. This is my dream and my plan.
I wish you good luck with your dreams and plans.
My dream, too
I like the music roy
I did my thesis in College on Underground / Earth Integrated housing. It's good to see more people using this ancient method of building. It respects the environment and has many pluses as well.
Amazing ! Just Amazing ! Thank you so much for sharing and narrating.
Can I build like this home without buying a land,?
Hello, you would need to buy property before you can construct anything or get permission from the property owners to construct or erect anything
Incredible!
This has got to be one the most beautiful homes I have ever wanted!!! I am in love with everything about this home...I wish I had the money to buy it....I would in a heartbeat just to keep it like it is!!!
Thank you for commenting Jenn. I am keeping it as it is except for minor improvements. I am transitioning to all LED lighting.
My dream.
That's a lot of hard work! It's beautiful!
Your home is so beautiful, I love all the natural rock used in your design and the wonderful way it blends in with the landscape of the surrounding area. Your interior design is great too. Truly a home that holds its value and is a place that is a joy to come to each day.
Thank you for the very positive comment Jack.
The building permit people would never allow this, the code people would condemn the place and the HOA would forclose in a heartbeat so i'm putting out a level 3 fact check
I'm not sure what is more impressive, the surroundings or the house! Amazing work, more especially that it was a one man job. Much respect for your determination, perseverance and vision. Do you use the pool occasionally? Ever thought of turning it into a Koi pond?
Good idea about the Koi pond. no, I don’t use it. it seemed like a good idea at the time. My only way of keeping cool during the hot summers was to walk down to the stream below the house and get into a pool of water. The pool was also my bathtub. it was not uncommon for me to take “baths” six or more times a day. A pool of water in the house seemed like a great idea at the time!
Over and over again as I look at 70's - 90's construction... security was not an issue.
Looks Damp, Dank and full of bugs.
No one cares about your wife's vagina
AMAZING!
Can you do it again with out making every photo move? Its a motion sickness inducing experance of a extremely interesting subject.
I take it you’re not a fan of Ken Burns
@@rowannadon7668 It can be an interesting effect however like anything else can be overdone.
Omg, absolutely beautiful this would be my dream home. I can't imagine all the hard work that went into this build. I just bought 30 acres in the mountains of Wyoming looking for ideas came across your video. Thanks for sharing your journey in this build. Love love your home
Thank you for the nice comments Bailey. I can tell that you’re going to have a good place when you’re done with all of the research that you are doing.
Absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Erica.
Just discovered your wonderful structure today, absolutely stunning use of natural materials to build a beautiful, comfortable home!
Thanks for the nice comment.
I love this house and natural building. I'm a huge fan of concrete, and using your natural surroundings to become part of the land. Some great ideas here. Thank you for sharing this video. Where is tge house built and how can people get a tour? Thanks again. 😊
Thank you for watching the video Trent. I have put three videos on UA-cam featuring this house which is my way of giving many people a tour of the house at the same time.
U picked a good tune for this incredible journey! Magnificent
I'm so glad my Librivox friend Mary (I believe you know her well!) alerted me to this beautifully made video, Roy, about what has clearly been a most amazingly well-sustained labour of love. In Australia (where I live) many people watch a British TV show called "Grand Designs" about English people who turn old concrete tanks into stunning houses, but this, I have to say, leaves that for dead. There's obviously so much of this story still untold or very much understated here. Eight years! As for your video, it's beautifully paced. I love how you let your work speak for itself, as it were. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you for the uplifting comments Peter.
Nice house, but damn the music kill the video.
You're right. I have learned to mute it myself.
Yeah, but it's kinda period-correct.
Made me nervous
This is amazingly cool.
AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!
Very beautiful. I enjoyed watching this!
Nailed it man, almost done building my icf and I think im headed your direction next. Why are the smart builds not the norm? Why would you live in a box next to hundreds the same that don't make sense? Who is John galt?
Neat home! How many sq ft? For $28,000. That’s phenomenal if you built for that much. Of course, you had to eat many boxes of Wheaties doing all the back breaking labor? Best part is the natural insulation, free materials, low energy costs, perhaps low maintenance.
More square feet than I needed! If I had it to do again, it would be much smaller. I could not afford Wheaties. Oatmeal every day.
❤️
And they get there in a Mazda rx7. Nice!
Very beautiful place
Thank you Gabriel.
is this real did this happen
