I would love to see a small tour of the town you are living in. The mountains are beautiful. I look forward to watching your videos Sunday morning after church.
Me, too. What are the wife and kids doing while you're chipping away? How's it going with getting your visas? Is Heather learning Italian? What's it like in the town where you're living?
Beautiful stonework and you're learning to be a stonemason yourself. So glad you'ree providing an opportunity for those skilled people to continue their trade.
A fireplace was my first guess, but I know how much you look forward to your outdoor kitchen. So, yes a fireplace is a statement piece, but a fireplace with a beehive oven is a functional fireplace. I’d add a swing hook to use for cooking over the fire. We get excited about our firepit grate for cooking outside. There’s SO much you can do with this!
Next level shabby you mean. This entire project will collapse or some giant stone will fall from the cliff above and crush this house. No 1st world country would ever allow such poor constructing in such a dangerous location.
@ To the contrary Mark. They are using construction practices from the early 17th Century. Aside from a rock come crashing down those structures are still around today
Just loved seeing the out door coffee station again. Such scenic beauty. The extended built in retaining wall is gorgeous too. So glad you have recorded your journey and this build from the very start. It is priceless
Watching and listening to you stone masons at work strikes me as being as therapeutic as it is for you doing the chipping! Another great video, thank you. Season’s greeting to you all.
I was thinking the same thing. Did you see the comment above about the swing hook? I'd say soup & fresh baked bread and the whole town will be coming for dinner. They'll see the smoke from the chimney and know they'll be smelling what's on the menu soon... ;o) Mrs. T
Put a fireplace crane in it, and you can get a large pot to cook in it too. There are also ways to adapt it for a grill. Roasted peppers and onions are awesome!
You should leavea cut out in your stone to stack your wood? It is gorgeous! Hope your family enjoyed the holiday season and you gave your body a rest. So enjoying your videos, I look forward to each and every episode 🥰
I always appreciate your discussion of the contemplative nature of the work as well as your emotional and spiritual appreciation for the beauty of your surroundings and materials.
The wall is not just stunning - it ' s a work of art. See what happens when u get in "the zone". Very therapeutic. Enjoy the process. This terrace will.provide many nostalgic memories going forward.
Brady, you are so very welcome and we thank you for sharing your lives and your journey with this project. Watching you and Allessio unload the truck, with what I assume are bags of cement, I could only imagine how exhausting it must be after working with all those heavy stones. You both are truly amazing "work horses" with such dedication. I'm enjoying watching your vision unfold. Blessings to you, Brady, to Heather, to the girls and also to Allessio and Carols for this coming new year. A weekend trip to Morocco...Cool!!!
Love the fireplace. Since this area will also be an outdoor kitchen can you either build a fire on one side and use a door in the fireplace to make it an oven for pizza or roasting. Or you can build a large flat rock protruding from one side where you can set pizza and pans.
Agreed. And Heather is the reason Brady can do all this hard work. She works hard at keeping everything in their home life running smoothly and taking care of their children. She is the wind beneath his wings. 😊
Have that blacksmith make some implaments for the fireplace - built -in pot holder? Did you consider a conduit for power in the fireplace area? You will be looking for it!! How about an accessible clean-out for the orange drain line? Wonderful craftsmanship!
Awesome. This remodelled barn will be a warm cozy dream home for many years. A massive project requiring numerous hours but will be an incredible home with an incredible view.
Greetings from Thailand. It's always been said that location is everything, and you have one of the best. Just sitting on your terrace in the morning, having a cup of coffee and looking at that beautiful village, listening to the church bells in the distance, wow. My little farm is in the mountains behind a Thai temple, and although I can't see it, l can hear the monks chanting some times. You are doing an incredible job on your property and as the rest of your subscribers, look forward to the next video. Cheers !
Thank you, dear Brady -- and your team -- it's we, your subscribers, who look forward to your every posting -- who are the grateful ones. Just so you aren't too shocked , though -- and can ease yourselves into and match our expectations -- we will need you to have found a new 2-or-3-year project and it to be already under way as all y'all're finished with this, your pilot project. Blessed, Happy and Prosperous 2025!♥
Fab idea !! Spit roasts here we come!! What a showpiece for the Stonemasons to advertise their workmanship. All of you workers and family. Have a fabulously happy and prosperous NEW YEAR.
From the beginning each step has been a masterpiece. I am amazed at the magnitude of detailed, hard labor that you and your team have invested. It definitely will be an attraction in your mountain community.
Your outdoor area is going to be stunning with not only the views, but a lovely warming fireplace for those cooler days when it is still pleasant to be outdoors.
That wall and fireplace are going to be something magnificent and special as part of your outdoor patio, dining, lounging, hosting, entertaining area! What a great outdoor experience and existence your family will be able to live, share and create memories in! So cool!
You're completely welcome. We all thank you right back for bringing the thousands of us so much joy. Sending warmest wishes for Peace, Love, Joy & Excellent Adventures in 2025.
We second the request below to see a small tour of the town there. We'd like to see the look and feel of it that was part of what attracted you to this area in Italy to create your dream house and surrounding homestead.
Brady, this ambitious project is making you an artisan in so many kinds of skilled labour, and you have made acquaintance in their work teams, you will never need to fear not having options for work.
That fireplace is going to be stunning and will show the world what a great stonemason team you have. The wall is looking great. Hope u get your drone.😀🤬
I thought for Sure you were going to say,”pizza oven”. There’s still time to add it would be a shame to miss the opportunity to maximize your firewood. I love you guys. What you’re doing is remarkable. I can’t wait to see the finished interior. I hope you are using Italian glass tile it’s so beautiful with rock. Make longer videos please,lol.
The wall is looking so beautiful! The fireplace is going to be incredible , a lot of hard work but it is well worth it ❤ you still can't get rid of that goat Lol
WOW! WOW! WOW! I Have watched your build from the beginning Your Family is such an inspiration! love how you involve the girls when its safe so they know the labor of love to tell that story later.... love this new addition on so many levels!!! Holy Shitaki!! I was thinking a fire element, Your idea is Amazing!! can imagine sitting there enjoying that view... Thank you for sharing how all this happens especially the stone work... sending positive energy prayers of protection
Brady waking up for your video is a bliss. I always wish I can just watch it all day. So special to watch a piece of history been build. Absolutely love everything you do and thank you allow me to see it. 👌👍👏🫶🫂
Wow! That FP feature is going to be amazing! Hope you have a slight slant to the top of the wooden mantle so water drains off. This labor of love is going to be fabulous!
Brody May l ask did you get your residency sorted out?!! I also hope that you all had a very happy Christmas! Happy new year! All the very best. Thankyou for another great video.
I would love to help with the chipping, drinking a cup of expresso ..looking out on the beautiful landscape! Ignore the haters...you're doing just fine.
Wow to the fireplace! Amazing work with those stones . I am sure the end result will be awesome. Have a good week advancing your wall. See you next week but in the meantime Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
20:56, In a couple of years those wires will rust and break, giving you a major problem that you won't be able to get at! You really need to support this pipe much better.
Just when I think you couldn't possibly amaze me more, you go ahead and do it. If you ever finish the property (I suspect Bradey will never stop building with stone now), it will be an amazing estate.
yes. these stone structures may have the villagers looking up to see how Bradey's estate fits in so well with the architectural scene of the scenic valley. Hope that Bradey goes online to ponder how Frank Lloyd Wright used straight lines to make a visual impact. I improved my CA. bungalow by selecting aluminum Venetian (Wright's Lines) blinds to shade my windows from the sun's glare which fit in perfectly with the long horizontal face board of the roof.
Funny. I was saying to my wife: I wonder what ever happened to the pesky goats? Not more than a half-second later that he was at he door. I reckon that was their hangout before the Brady bunch moved in.
Are they back?? Last I watched he was flying in a plane solo to America and the rest of the videos have been past projects. Can't wait to see the finished house inside .
Here from Whenuapai, Auckland, New Zealand, I have been with you and your family pretty much from the start.You have been so fortunate to have such a great team working with you as well.
I was nearly right about what you were building in the middle of the wall as I thought it was going to be a large outdoor kitchen. I can't wait to see the fireplace which sounds like an Ingle Nook fireplace that's what we call them in the UK I absolutely love what you have done with your house and can't wait to see the outcome of all your hard work on the outside patio areas Keep plugging away it's great!!! John from the UK 👍👍👍👍
What a great idea. You have sutch good use of your outdoor kitchen. I can see you sitting and relaxing in front of the fire, enjoying a glass of wine, while the girls are roasting marshmellows. Also lots of wonderful moments with family and friends fom abroad.
Wondering if you will install shutters like italians do ?..to keep, among others, these goats away from your windows when you’re away. (from a woodhouse in a small village of south east france : gréolières) Thank you for sharing all your ideas and skills
In Germany we have a saying: You grow with your task. I take my hat off every time I see you there, giving shape to a dream. Respect.
Happy festive season to you and your family
Happy New Year family, your house is looking amazing!!!!!
I would love to see a small tour of the town you are living in. The mountains are beautiful. I look forward to watching your videos Sunday morning after church.
Me, too. What are the wife and kids doing while you're chipping away? How's it going with getting your visas? Is Heather learning Italian? What's it like in the town where you're living?
Most UA-camrs do not want to reveal where they are living. For safety reasons I would not reveal this town.
Dont think ITS a good Idea to tell
@@NurseyPooh59 It's pretty easy to find out, though. I did.
Safety First. That said, more of Italy would be lovely. A lot of the old towns are so beautiful.
Everyone in the village is gonna see that fireplace when it burning! Lovely
I was thinking the same thing. The village will know when they're home... Coffee-on-the-terrace anyone??! Mrs. T
So many hours of work in just that wall...added to the hours into the house and addition...really amazing! Kudos to all involved...
And it will all fall down within a few years, such a shame.
Beautiful stonework and you're learning to be a stonemason yourself. So glad you'ree providing an opportunity for those skilled people to continue their trade.
I think he's going to have a job when they get all the stone work done. But only after he gets a much earned respite. ;*) Mrs. T
A fireplace was my first guess, but I know how much you look forward to your outdoor kitchen. So, yes a fireplace is a statement piece, but a fireplace with a beehive oven is a functional fireplace. I’d add a swing hook to use for cooking over the fire. We get excited about our firepit grate for cooking outside. There’s SO much you can do with this!
Even though I thought pizza oven, I think the swing hook is a great idea. I'd always have soup cooking. Mrs. T
This is next level construction and very impressive. none of this Home Depot stuff. You and those Italian dudes are badass
Next level shabby you mean. This entire project will collapse or some giant stone will fall from the cliff above and crush this house. No 1st world country would ever allow such poor constructing in such a dangerous location.
@ To the contrary Mark. They are using construction practices from the early 17th Century. Aside from a rock come crashing down those structures are still around today
It's not just exciting, Brady.....
.... that doesn't go anywhere near describing how good it is......
...... It's SUPER exciting... !!!
I’d say you have Mastered the art of shaping those rocks. Impressive
That wall is seriously gorgeous. Great engineering❤..
Just loved seeing the out door coffee station again. Such scenic beauty. The extended built in retaining wall is gorgeous too. So glad you have recorded your journey and this build from the very start. It is priceless
Love how you are using what’s on your property to make the house look like it has always existed. Great job.
Watching and listening to you stone masons at work strikes me as being as therapeutic as it is for you doing the chipping! Another great video, thank you. Season’s greeting to you all.
Everything is beautiful - the view, the little town - as far as the eyes can see - ENJOY
You may carevto Consider making the fireplace dual purpose. Setting it up so you can also BBQ and or use it as a bread or pizza oven.
Totally agree. I have seen several outdoor fireplaces, and they very, very RARELY get used. They look good , though.
I was thinking the same thing. Did you see the comment above about the swing hook? I'd say soup & fresh baked bread and the whole town will be coming for dinner. They'll see the smoke from the chimney and know they'll be smelling what's on the menu soon... ;o) Mrs. T
Yes, a masterpiece indeed. Your work is so solid, ancient and steeped in tradition. What a life and legacy you are creating. Magnificent ❤
Remarkable fireplace.
Put a fireplace crane in it, and you can get a large pot to cook in it too. There are also ways to adapt it for a grill. Roasted peppers and onions are awesome!
You should leavea cut out in your stone to stack your wood? It is gorgeous! Hope your family enjoyed the holiday season and you gave your body a rest. So enjoying your videos, I look forward to each and every episode 🥰
My guess was wrong! 😆 Your fireplace will be a gorgeous outdoor feature!! The colors in the stone are remarkable!
I always appreciate your discussion of the contemplative nature of the work as well as your emotional and spiritual appreciation for the beauty of your surroundings and materials.
The wall is not just stunning - it ' s a work of art. See what happens when u get in "the zone". Very therapeutic. Enjoy the process. This terrace will.provide many nostalgic memories going forward.

Blessings to you, Brady, to Heather, to the girls and also to Allessio and Carols for this coming new year. A weekend trip to Morocco...Cool!!!
I love watching your ideas every week. I can’t wait for the final reveal of your home and fireplace!
Love the fireplace. Since this area will also be an outdoor kitchen can you either build a fire on one side and use a door in the fireplace to make it an oven for pizza or roasting. Or you can build a large flat rock protruding from one side where you can set pizza and pans.
It’s coming together beautifully love the stone🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
I'm awed by the hard work you've put into your house. The wall is gorgeous and massive!
Everything is coming together, so beautifully! It will be an exciting day when all of the family moves in!
Heather must be very proud of you. You working so hard and always so happy💕💕🇦🇬
Agreed. And Heather is the reason Brady can do all this hard work. She works hard at keeping everything in their home life running smoothly and taking care of their children. She is the wind beneath his wings. 😊
Have that blacksmith make some implaments for the fireplace - built -in pot holder?
Did you consider a conduit for power in the fireplace area? You will be looking for it!!
How about an accessible clean-out for the orange drain line?
Wonderful craftsmanship!
Awesome. This remodelled barn will be a warm cozy dream home for many years. A massive project requiring numerous hours but will be an incredible home with an incredible view.

This is beautiful now, I can’t imagine what it will be when finished. You have such wonderful ideas. Amazing!
I really miss seeing Heather and the girls. I love the new project your working on
This project to me is a combination of Italian stone craftsmanship and American thinking big. The end result will be amazing.
Brady, this ambitious project is making you an artisan in so many kinds of skilled labour, and you have made acquaintance in their work teams, you will never need to fear not having options for work.
This build just gets better and better! Great job!
That rock wall is so beautiful. Loving it. ❤
This stone wall and outdoor area is going to be a masterpiece. The stone masons are truly amazing, and so are you. Just beautiful ✨
❤ the sound of the chipping. You are becoming a true mason Brady. ❤❤
Absolutely beautiful ❤ Love your content!!! Don’t listen to trolls! They’re just jealous they aren’t accomplishing something amazing!
It isn't jealousy, it's boredom. And some of us are restoring our own homes in Italy as well. 👍
Aw there is that goat checking the new door out. What a persistent neighbor😮. Wishing you & your whole family a happy & wonderful new year. ❤❤❤❤❤
That fireplace is going to be stunning and will show the world what a great stonemason team you have. The wall is looking great. Hope u get your drone.😀🤬

Absolutely gorgeous stone wall! The fireplace will be amazing for that outdoor space😄❤️🙌🏼
That wall already looks spectacular, Brady❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊
Love watching your dreams go from paper to reality.
I hope this inspires others to make their little neck of the woods more beautiful and comfortable for themselves.
Yes! Fireplace, perfect! Stone work is jaw dropping as is the whole project 👏👏
Wishing you Brady, Heather and the girls and all of the stone mason crew a very happy, blessed, healthy new year 2025.
1:20 in I will guess that the "special feature" is a stone fireplace for cooking and warmth.
Wow! That FP feature is going to be amazing! Hope you have a slight slant to the top of the wooden mantle so water drains off. This labor of love is going to be fabulous!
I admire your positive, pioneer spirit. Happy, blessed New Year to you and yours from Finland 🎉❤🎉😊
Your videos are the highlight of my week. Cannot wait for Sunday evenings so I can watch the past week's progress. Lot's of love from South Africa.
Brody May l ask did you get your residency sorted out?!!
I also hope that you all had a very happy Christmas! Happy new year! All the very best. Thankyou for another great video.
I've been watching for months. I'm so intrigued and big kudos to you for this special and unique project. Thanks for showing us what you're doing!!!
I would love to help with the chipping, drinking a cup of expresso ..looking out on the beautiful landscape!
Ignore the haters...you're doing just fine.
That fireplace will be a phenomenal thing when it's done😊
Great to see the amazing progress....i wish you and you're family all the best for the new year🥂🍀🍾🫶🏼🤙🏽
Parabéns, pela força, coragem, persistência. Foi um ano que vos segui e adorei ver o empenho. Um novo ano cheio de vitórias e de saúde. ❤❤❤🇵🇹
Wow to the fireplace! Amazing work with those stones . I am sure the end result will be awesome. Have a good week advancing your wall. See you next week but in the meantime Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

That fire place sounds massive!! I will have to see it when done to understand it.
Your family and friends are going to enjoy this outdoor living space so much. ❤
Beautiful stone work! Big dreams = big rewards!
Watching all the beautiful stone work is therapeutic and it is sooooooo pretty
Happy New Year, I can’t wait to see your final masterpiece ❤
The goat makes me laugh!!! The coffee is just freaking cool! The view is spectacular!

Wishing you, Heather and the girls a lovely New Year's and a blessed 2025 ! ❤🎉
Funny. I was saying to my wife: I wonder what ever happened to the pesky goats? Not more than a half-second later that he was at he door. I reckon that was their hangout before the Brady bunch moved in.
My thoughts exactly.😊
The goat looked downright miffed there are doors and windows
Me too! 😄🤣😂😃😅
At the end of the day,, will be a home 🏠 miracle,,, with beautiful stone walls and gardens,,,, with fruits 🍎 and vegetables 🥗!!!!! 👍👍👍✅✅✅✅
Glad to see you back, hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, happy new year ❤🎉
Are they back?? Last I watched he was flying in a plane solo to America and the rest of the videos have been past projects. Can't wait to see the finished house inside .

YAY! I was rooting fo a beautiful fireplace!! What a spot! Well done👍🏻
Amazing work always wanted to work with stone like that... great viewing ty.
I LOVE it!!! Nights toasting marshmallows, hit chocolate, mulled wine...enjoying the stars. It's going to be epic! 😊❤
You should have included a Pizza/Bread oven in next to the outdoor fireplace
What a great idea.
You have sutch good use of your outdoor kitchen. I can see you sitting and relaxing in front of the fire, enjoying a glass of wine, while the girls are roasting marshmellows. Also lots of wonderful moments with family and friends fom abroad.
