Absolutely beautiful, so happy for you! Please don't get rid of the fireplace, though, it makes the room, very cozy and elegant! You could put flowers or plants or candles - even battery operated ones - on the hearth even if you never light it.
Also, in the living room where tiles gave been broken, it might look really cool to have some different tiles, maybe like handpainted ones, on the floor in a few spots instead of redoing the whole thing to look the same - plus less waste of materials
Oh Saga! I'm in love! Your home is amazing and has loads of potential. The outdoor balcony areas are to die for! A thought about your fireplace: although you don't want to use it might I suggest you consider keeping it for it's charm and architectural interest? There are many ideas on the internet with ways you can use and decorate a nonworking fireplace. Maybe you will see something that you think is clever and beautiful. I'm so super excited to see more videos of your progress on the home. Plus your regular content as well. You are a delight. :) Hugs from the USA!
Oh wow, thank you! I think so too! Yes, or potentially, if I get the budget lol, would be to restore it with a closed fireplace...! So many ideas! :) Yay!
Your view is amazing. It will be fun to see how your ideas come to life. I can tell how excited you are about your new home, even though there are many repairs and upgrades needed. Congratulations! You're so brave and adventurous to be willing to take on this challenge, including living in Italy.
Thank you so much! Vuntage market in Australia find!!! ❤️ so happy because it had a huge ketchup stain on it and I bought it anyway because I was sure I could get it out!
the entry is beautiful and the stairs too! the colour and smart design of them and how they slope gently not steep, so inviting. you just have to adjust around them with the right decor, make a cozy landing area, put a couple of plants or pottery on the stairs, you can even put a vintage rug up the center of them, so much you can do! please keep them :)
Hi hi Saga, your new, very old home, is gorgeous! 😍It's so cool to be able to see your dreams come true, and I am so very, very happy for you~you made my heart smile simply to see you so excited to share the start of this journey! I hope you will have lots of fun in your restoration project, making your own family history as you go along. I love the idea of having dining out on your balcony, under a covering of grape vines~that will be just beautiful...wishing for you all so many years of J💖Y there, and sending lots of hugs~🥰💙🐱💛
Congratulations!! Your house is AMAZING and beautiful!! I just loved seeing the tour of the inside and outside! I am Swedish-American and my husband is 100% Italian. I just love dreaming about what life would be like living in one of these older Italian houses! It would be so much fun to spend days fixing, painting, and renovating using recycled materials! The garden would be so pretty with the olive trees!! 😊❤❤❤
Yay, thank you! That's so sweet! WOW! How crazy?! That's so perfect haha! I'm hoping that's what it'll be like too! Where in Italy is your husband from? 💖💖
@@SagaJohanna His family is from Naples; Napoli. His mother grew up there and his father was Sicilian! We have a family cookbook and some of the recipes are different by the region. For instance, his mother's stuffed Artichoke recipe called for bread crumbs and Parmesan in the Artickoke and his father's Sicilian version calls for lots of Parsley and garlic in the Artichoke! 🙂🌸 Best wishes on the house remodeling! 🩷
Beautiful house I can't wait to see how it turns out. I think older houses are so beautiful because there are so many memories and stories in the walls. Just bought an old mirror from Portugal, it's "only" from the 50's, but think it's exciting to think of everyone who has looked into that mirror. Good luck with everything that comes your way 🤍
That staircase Rocks! You almost never get such a wide stairwell in Italy, it'll make renovations and furniture moving easy, plenty of light, fun to sit on a stairwell like that, it will go off if u have a party or kids. Omg those floorboards! Fantastic. Along with that epic fireplace. If u remove it you'll regret it. Plus it'll cost u a fortune to remove and make good. Then you'll have to install another heating source.
Wow! That is an amazing property. It's going to be a lot of work, and will take a long time, but it's going to be SO worth it! I can't wait to watch your renovations, I think it will be so interesting to see what you do with the place.
How fun! Love your new house and excited to come on this journey with you! Please leave the fire place and all the original tile in the bathrooms, they are all in perfect condition!
😱 its 2 houses connected. I cant believe it. The kitchen terace is amazing and the upper indoor-outside room with balcony I would used as some kind of greenhouse (potted plants, reading sofa, office desk?). I dont know if you need such a space. Its all so different from the NZ van-life 😆
I'm sure you will be able to get recycled floor tiles from any of the antique/restoration places that are all around Italy. Weirdly I rather like the bathroom tiles in the 1st bathroom, regrouted and with the walls painted they would be fine. Block off the chimneys if you don't want to use the fireplaces and use them as features for candles, books etc.
I hope so too, just need them to be in my budget...! Oh I love the tiles in the 1st bathroom, if possible those will be kept! But not sure what it looks like under the bathtub etc. Thanks for all the ideas!
Wow, amazing! :) You are truly blessed! Also, I love your dress so much-can you please tell me the brand & where you got it? I suggest not demolishing the fireplace, but instead repurposing it for candlelight or plants or books or figurines.
Wow, the two houses together are huge and beautiful ❤ Nice that you shared already some of your ideas for the renovation! I have to smile a little bit because I found you through your minimalism videos 😅 But I understand why you fall in love with it, even if it's enormous Where/how did you find the property? We found our house in Spain via the real estate portal Idealista, which is also available for Portugal and other countries. But I've heard that there are also many municipalities in Italy that take part in the €1 houses campaign to breathe new life into abandoned places 😊 For privacy reasons, you probably don't want to reveal where exactly you live in Italy. But it looks great there! A wonderful view and somehow it seems magically enchanted and quiet 🥰😍 Surrounded by stunning nature! Which region is it roughly and what is the climate like there? I see you don't have any heating except for the fireplace. So there's no snow in the mountains in winter? And how hot does it get right now in July? Many questions 😉 I'm very curious about your project
Haha it's funny isn't it! I hope to make the house work without too much furniture, I think it all depends on the wall finish - I'm gonna try to do earthen walls!! 💖 We were actually looking for smalelr properties but they were impossible to find! That's why this one is ideal, we could "choose" either side to live in. We did Idealista too, but didn't notice the house on there because of some things I didn't like, but then a local real estate agent convinced us to see it! I think the $1 houses in the North is not really happening anymore, where we are, but in the South for sure! Thank you :) 💖💖 Happy to share region, and thanks so much for your concerns, 💖 Liguria! So not too far away from Spain haha! They call this "hintherlands" which I don't really know what that is lol. Many microclimates, anything from humid and dark, to here, super sunny and dry. I'm not sure what winter will be like but I think it'll be pretty cold! Currently we're at 32 degrees all day! I'll talk more about it all in videos, so many good ideas yay!
@SagaJohanna I find renovating with natural materials like clay very exciting, I'd love to hear more about it! I didn't know the term earthen walls yet 😉 When I did Work&Travel in Portugal, for example, I learned how to mix lime powder into paint. A chemical reaction creates heat and you keep stirring until it bubbles. Painting with this aqueous lime paint is called white washing. Like clay, it is wonderful for rooms with high humidity and mold. I have just skimmed the Wikipedia article on Liguria 😊 The microclimate seems familiar to me from the Canary Islands, where we live - very diverse (but here it's definitely warmer in the winter months). It's amazing how high the proportion of wooded areas is in your area! I'm glad that you can realize your home in paradise 💚 Good luck & happy to get insights in your journey on UA-cam, because it's a great combination of information, inspiration and your calm vibes
I'm so happy for you guys. It looks like a lot of work, and take a lot of money to fix. But you are young enough to handle it and can do it over time to spread out the cost. I understand the fire place dilemma. Maybe you can add a small wood burning stove and burn remodel wood ends. The coldest winters I have ever spent were in Italy, and have lived in Wyoming, USA, which can have -40°F. Italy was older feeling because there isn't insulation and the heat isn't like great. Wood heat does polute, but it is radiant and warms you up.😊. Good luck and take the remodeling slow so as not to get burnt out. ❤🏳️🌈
Hi Valorie! Yes, I hope so too! :) That is what I have thought too! Oh wow, that is so interesting! Yes, I do not know how they do it. They live without many comforts here that are common in Sweden, so house will for sure be a bit of Swedish/Italian mix!
Hi Johanna, So cool! Love the views, the stone and all of the old treasures that you are finding. Wondering if you have any recommendations for an honest realtor who is well informed about international purchases? I will be In Liguria in September and am looking for a property. Thanks so much and best of luck!
Thank you so much! Yes, I found AlpiLiguria to be great, and also Immobiliare Liguria! However, only the first one has English speaking customer service. If you need any help I am happy to assist, you can message me on Instagram :)
Complimenti Saga, é una casa veramente grande e bella, con molte potenzialità. Il problema é che, per la sua particolare struttura con muri in pietra a vista, ti costerà molto in costi di ristrutturazione. Ma sei una ragazza tenace e volenterosa, saprai certamente trasformarla in una fantastica casa di campagna con un tocco nordico 😉👍💪🌹
Grazie mille! Si e grandissimo! Devo trovare i soluzioni per i petra, speriamo non devo fare troppo lavoro con ristruttuare! (scrivo senza autocorrect scusa).
Hi Saga. There is a British TV series called ‘Escape to the Chateau’ which you could check out for ideas on restoration. Could be to use one of the 2 properties as a holiday rental?
I would say that the ivy will on the building will work to you advantage as a natural insulator in the winter, plus shelter for insects etc ? Also looks beautiful!!!
Beautiful but the insects (ants) are invading the home and, the ivy is growing in through the wall and windows 😅 so needs to go and house needs a new facade 🙏
GOD MORGON! God luck with the new place! Love the tile in the bathroom. What are you going to do with all those bedrooms? Rent rooms out? I may have missed it, but how old is the building and town? It is a beautiful view from the balcony! What is the crime rate there? Kram!
Thank you so much! I have no idea haha :) We will see! The building is at least 200 years, not sure about the village. WIll have to find out! Very very low crime rate in these villages :)
@@maryviolasse4145 Yes, I believe unfortunately all the linings on the dresses and coats I've found are crumbling... I will have to learn how to sew lining in. I've done it on clothes I've made from scratch but never on any ready made clothes! So kind of daunting
Your new home will be amazing, I'm sure! But, please, speaker slowly and more cleary, if you could. Best for you! I'm going to watch you❤

Ciao Johanna, sono capitata sul tuo canale x caso, il tuo entusiasmo è meraviglioso. Io agito a Genova, dove avete preso la casa? Sempra entroterra levante
We don't get snow here and we don't have solar panels, maybe one day if budget allows! Open fireplace does nothing for heat, dream would be earth heating like done in Sweden :)
@@SagaJohanna Back in time all the houses were heated with fireplace, and cook with them. The whole house life was built around the fireplace. Specially in Italian houses made of bricks that if not heated are cold.
14:54 Maybe not place the compost close to the house, compost attracts animals, so unless u want rodents and other animals close to your house, then move it further away if possible.
Love your house and gardens , but Just one word of caution.. be careful of snakes hidden in the dark.. I know what I'm talking about.. I would wear some boots down in the cellar.
I love you but who on earth needs a house that big? just one endless nightmare to maintain. Bye Bye Minimalism....I imagine once you fix it up you could sell. Of course good luck to you!!!
@@SagaJohanna - Good! Because the alternative just may end up being your biggest nightmare! 🤦♀️ the house will end up owning you, not the other way around. You could always consider using the second house as an Air B&B. Whatever you decide, good luck!
What a strange comment. We looked for months to find something smaller but it wasn’t possible. They don’t built small houses with gardens in this region, plus the house isn’t “big” by American standards. European yes! Millions to renovate this house would be impossible to spend, and we’re planning on doing it ourselves. Why would we need construction workers on retainer?
Absolutely beautiful, so happy for you! Please don't get rid of the fireplace, though, it makes the room, very cozy and elegant! You could put flowers or plants or candles - even battery operated ones - on the hearth even if you never light it.
Oh thank you so much! Yes, great ideas! I'm just so worried about the cleaning..>!
@@SagaJohanna you can insert a small wood burning stove inside.
Also, in the living room where tiles gave been broken, it might look really cool to have some different tiles, maybe like handpainted ones, on the floor in a few spots instead of redoing the whole thing to look the same - plus less waste of materials
I was thinking this also-turning it into a tiny artisanal mosaic section!
WHY DOES EVEYRONE HAS SUCH GOOD IDEAS? Thank you so much ❤️ how haven’t I thought of this!

Thank you so so much!
Oh, how exciting!!! Your home will be so much fun to restore!!! I can't wait to see your future posts.
Yay, thank you so much Carla
Great house and beautiful vintage furniture! Also love that dress you found. Very 60s and incredibly chic.
Thank you so much! Vuntage market in Australia find!!! ❤️ so happy because it had a huge ketchup stain on it and I bought it anyway because I was sure I could get it out!
Your house is beautiful
Bit by bit it's going to look amazing
Can't wait to watch the transformation ❤
I hope so too!!! Thank you 💖
the entry is beautiful and the stairs too! the colour and smart design of them and how they slope gently not steep, so inviting. you just have to adjust around them with the right decor, make a cozy landing area, put a couple of plants or pottery on the stairs, you can even put a vintage rug up the center of them, so much you can do! please keep them :)
Thank you! Yes, the entry is a bit of a tricky one! I'm hoping for a big lemon tree if it can survive on that side! :)
Getting rid of chimneys is a structural thing. Very, very expensive. If you don’t want to use it fine. Just don’t remove it.
Yes, I mean shutting it in with bricks or something similar :) Thank you!
Wow, such an incredible project. So looking forward to seeing your house and garden journey unfold. Omg, such a beautiful place! xx
Thank you so much!😊
oh WOW that is absolutely beautiful! what a project though! ha cannot wait to watch you restoring it and making it yours and stunning
Thank you so much
It gets cold your going to want that fire place especially if the electric goes out
Open fireplaces unfortunately do really nothing to heat a house, so we will need another heating solution! :)
@@SagaJohannaperhaps you could put a wood stove or gas fire insert into it. I promise you when it’s cold you’ll want gas or fire for heat.

Hi from 🇨🇦

Searching to relocate asap
so cool! are you going to learn italian?
Yes, I already speak Italian on a basic level, but currently working towards fluency :) which is hard!!
Like being on a “treasure hunt”!! 😊
Yes! I think that's what the whole basement will be like haha :)
🍾🥂🍀A very nice traditional italian (let's say european) country house.
Thank you so much! 💖💖
14:54 Maybe not place the compost close to the house, compost attracts animals, so unless u want rodents and other animals close to your house, then move it further away if possible.
Sweetheart, always love your videos. You are always interesting
Thank you! :)

Love your house and gardens , but Just one word of caution.. be careful of snakes hidden in the dark.. I know what I'm talking about.. I would wear some boots down in the cellar.
The snakes don’t like the damp of the cellar, they’re all in the garden 😅 jokes aside most are harmless!
Pollution, really
What is?
I love you but who on earth needs a house that big? just one endless nightmare to maintain. Bye Bye Minimalism....I imagine once you fix it up you could sell. Of course good luck to you!!!
It’s very hard to find small houses here with gardens. We’re planning to restore it into 2 houses which makes it a lot smaller ☺️
@@SagaJohanna - Good! Because the alternative just may end up being your biggest nightmare! 🤦♀️ the house will end up owning you, not the other way around. You could always consider using the second house as an Air B&B. Whatever you decide, good luck!
Not a good idea dark underwear with a white light dress and stay in front of the window...
I think it looks nice! :) With beige underwear someone might think I was naked lol! :)
I like it.
hi
you need professional youtube thumbnail designer ???
Hope you have a million plus to spend and a crew of construction workers on retainer. Looks like you went American big rather than smart.
What a strange comment. We looked for months to find something smaller but it wasn’t possible. They don’t built small houses with gardens in this region, plus the house isn’t “big” by American standards. European yes! Millions to renovate this house would be impossible to spend, and we’re planning on doing it ourselves. Why would we need construction workers on retainer?
