We will post updates as we work on it. We hope you enjoy this 110+ year old farmhouse tour! Episode #5. Please subscribe and hit the bell icon to stay on top of our renovation progress.

This was a huge farm in it's day...will you be giving us more background? What a grand project, thank you for sharing your adventure. Cheers from Canada.
I came to this channel only recently , so have seen a great deal having been achieved in the restoration . It’s good to see what you have done , and it is even more astounding now I know where you began ! You have very strong spirits to believe you could restore this crumbling interior and the grounds as well . You certainly are very special people , and deserve every good thing .
Looks like you have endless projects, but theirs nothing wrong with that. Beautiful place 😊
Beautiful home! Heaps of work! Do keep the terracotta flooring, cleaned up and polished it would look amazing. Can’t wait to see how it all turns out 😍
Oh my god ! There's absolutely NO insulation nowhere ! It must have cost a fortune to heat !
I'm a newbie here. I found your channel when you cleared the front area. Awesomeand beautiful house.
But it will take a lot of work to make it liveable ! But it will be awesome.
PS It's the first time I see brick ceilings ! 😲
Услышав кусочки русской речи, подумала меня глюкануло🙈 Ребята ну вы прям🔥🔥🔥 Смотрю на этот старый дом, на то как вы очищаете брусчатку меня прям мурашит. Он такой классный как из сказки👍👍👍 Вам сил и терпения)
Спасибо большое :-) Я в него с первого взгляда влюбилась. И в само место :-)
Ага, услышала русскую речь и улыбнуло 😊
Русские.... :)
Скільки ви заплатили за цей будинок?
ахах тоже аж назад перемотала, думала, показалось
This looks like a place with a huge potential.
Seemingly it has been owned by an old farmer couple, the place hasn't seen any renovation since the 1970's judging by the style of decoration and pure functionality of everything.
Anything which you can think of has to be done inside, starting with new electrics, plumbing, insulation and heating, before any thoughts about decoration can be made.
But the skeleton of the house looks very sound, with a lot of nice original details.
Try to keep all the original doors, windows, shutters and also the floor tiles in the entrance room, even of you have to lift them to make a new floor underneath.
Also keep the oldest barns which were originally built with the house, and take down the others, the asbestos roofs have to go anyway, I think Belgium does subsidise the removal like in the Netherlands.
I subbed to follow this adventure, because this is no less!
So much work! The place has "good bones" and you can see the potential. You are young and will have fun makithis your home.
I don't see significant water damage or sinking. This is a good place to start.
That’s a stunning house. I can see why you love it.
Same here
This is so beautiful! So much potential, thank you for taking us along on your renovation journey. :) With so much space, you could probably rent out some of the rooms for guests, or AirBnB, if you felt like it!
I’m so intrigued! Do you have a video where you explain how you came to purchase this farm and what you intend to do with it? I have so many questions! What happened to all of the stuff that was in the pictures? Was someone living there when you purchased it? I’m so excited to watch this adventure! Blessings from Minnesota in the US.
Its going to be a huge amount of work but it will be a beautiful home when finished. Having built and remodeled homes I can say the amount of personal satisfaction that one gets after seeing the results of all their sweat equity is well worth it. Kitchens and bathrooms have always been the most work. Never get discouraged.
Thanks for supportive words, Ray! Always happy to hear from people who have/had similar experience :-)
I have to tell you you are living my dream! I subscribed immediately. This farm is delightful and thank you so much for sharing your restoration of it with the public. Love the idea of turning the milking house into a greenhouse - Genius! And the bakehouse! Wow! I hope you can get it cleaned up and working again, it looks like it is in incredibly good shape! Are those pastures also yours? What a wonderful setting for animals or gardens! There was a great deal of investment into this farm at one time, as I am sure you guys can appreciate, someone really loved it once. I am so looking forward to seeing what you do with it. Thank you again for sharing this experience with us!
Many thanks for kind words! Glad you enjoyed the videos :-) we do appreciate the farm and the love it was built with, all the small details that you find overall.
Very Nice. Needs TLC and keep as much of the original in, remember 100 years passed by, and everything still standing.
Beautiful home!! Can't wait to see the renovations!! New subscriber!! Sending love from Indiana!! 🙏💖😊
Welcome Kristen :-) I can’t wait myself to start on renovating and not only demolishing 😁
Классная усадьба! И хозяева очаровательные! :) Работы конечно много впереди. Пусть всё, что задумали обязательно получится! Ребята, если не трудно, включайте хотя бы английские субтитры. В некоторых видео они есть, а в этом, увы, нет. Перевод конечно корявенький получается, но всё-таки понятно о чём идёт речь. :) Да, и ещё можно название видео дублировать на русском. Охват аудитории будет больше. Удачи вам!
Слышно, что говорите с акцентом, но не ожидала услышать русскую речь) Дом замечательный, хоть, конечно, работы в нем много. Успехов вам))
Спасибо большое ☺️
It’s quite possible that someone looked out that window @9:04 during WW2 and saw troops & armour, either German or Allied.
In fact the house itself may have been occupied by soldiers at some point if there was fighting nearby.
Maybe the First World War also, the house would have been less than 10 years old during that war. Fascinating place.
Yes, Flanders Field. A convergence of troops from everywhere and lots of lives lost. I have also wondered what, if any, role this farm had to play during that time.
Really lovely place it will take plenty of hard work and guts to finish. I think you have plenty of both.
What a beautiful, grand house.
Beautiful I have only been to Belgium once in my life with my grandparents and parents when I was 16. They were from Belgium we still have family their.. It's a beautiful place with lovely culture and people. So much love and kindness.. Such wonderful history.. I love your home. 💝🙏💝
Не зря ютуб порекомендовал !!!! МОЛОДЦЫ!!!!!! 🔥👍
Спасибо :-)
Сегодня случайно наткнулась на ваше видео и начала пересматривать все с начала. Услышала, что разговариваете с акцентом, но не придала значения. А в этом видео услышала русскую речь и даже не поверила, перемотала назад:) Очень интересно будет смотреть, как дом и участок преобразится:) Подписалась. Удачи вам:)
Спасибо большое! Пока мы только разрушаем 😂
Понравился ваш канал, такой «тёплый, ламповый». Подписалась :-)

@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm Очень интересно смотреть, жду подробности покупки жилья за границей)
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm Я представляю какая красотень получится😍😍😍 и так то супер , а будет дворец!!! Вам для колорита надо курочек несушек завести😁 кот постоянно мелькает, то собака! Ну а если ещё курочки на стройке , то все оболдеют 🤪 тем более места хватает , да и уход минимальный , вода , еда и угол с лампой и насест! А ещё и яички , красотень 🤗 да и только !!!
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm Откуда именно?
Привет из Украины))
Очень много красивых деталей, которые на первый взгляд и не заметишь. Надеюсь у вас получится привести ферму в порядок, сохранив историю. Удачи вам!
Love watching you all and your cats … your patience and work ethic is amazing .. you inspire me ..

Ребята, сделайте титры на русском или украинском, тогда больше будет подписчиков.
Здравствуйте Нина, меня несколько подписчиков просили о том же. Мы планируем добавить русские субтитры, но нужно время, чтобы разобраться. Пока у меня его просто не хватает, к сожалению :-( На некоторых видео добавились автоматически сгенерированные субтитры на русском.
We've been binge watching your videos! WOW, so good of you to share this with us! What did you do with all the furniture? What really scared me was the roof of the barn and the dropped beam causing the roof to sag, and the walls to bend out! You are so brave to tackle all of this!
every day they would wash down the cows while they milked them ...then clear away the gutters where their cowaste could be completly removed after the milk was collected they would store the cans a way in a rock house for pick up....
So much beauty in that old farm. Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to seeing all that you bring to this beauty!
Wat een mooi huis! Die muren lijken erg dik.What a nice house. The walls seem thick.
Is it just me or does it sound like you are whispering? Your English is pretty good but I really can't understand you on my laptop. But I get the visual and look forward to watching what you do :)
Lots of potential but lots of work too. The proportions are great and it will be amazing when you're finished! Awesome bread oven discovery!
You guys are amazing!! Love watching the transformation...do not burn yourselves out..I have done big projects before...Thank goodness hou are so young and strong!
The farm will be fantastic when you’re finished!
Ребята, это просто мечта! Такое подворье... И дом классный! Удачи вам)))
That wall switch is ancient, there's money to be spent there. Time, effort and a bit of money it will be wonderful.
Wow! A lot of work ahead of you. It will be gorgeous when it’s done. Can’t wait to see what you do next. This is exciting to watch. Blessings from San Diego, California.😍
Lovely grand home. So much work, starting with roof then rebuild the floors under terracotta tiles, adding damp proof course to stop rising damp. You are young & this is something I would have attempted 45 years ago 👌🏼
Big job, life time project. Super Cool!
It's a big beautiful house lots of work but it is gonna be great🥰💐
Sound unintelligible.
A very homely feel as you walked through the magnificent front door. Will be a fabulous family home to make memories in.
Amazing green house, alot of bldgs. So it was abandoned right, can you say how much you paid?
I can't wait for all this to be revealed, good luck with your home.
Just came across your channel and am already hooked after two videos. Love the way you present the content. Would love to see how the project progresses. Great job.
Love your house it has great bones
Lol at that quality and craftsmanship! The thickness and solidness of the walls, the wood paneling. Gorgeous.
Подписалась. Услышала славянскую речь))) Но на английском смотрела с интересом, хотя акцент слышится сразу. По русски или по украински было б лучше.
I can imagine there are some wonderful finds in the ground if one of you has a metal detector
Check out aquaponics for your greenhouse
What an amazing place - if I were 40 years younger, I'd love the challenge - Thank you for sharing... New to your channel, and viewing all your vids -
So much potential!
WOW!! Cobblestone!! You are blessed. I can't wait to see the complete transformation. This home is a "JEWEL"
Nice, old barn building. Lot of work to do. But it can become a pearl. Good luck with it. 🍀

Stephen King ... hmmm a new 1408
6:49 supernatural things happens
Beautiful property, waiting to see what you do step by step.....you MUST save that bedroom wallpaper ;-) It's classic!
A lot of potential. Will be a grand home.
Sound is bad. Cannot hear any of your comentary.
A GEM, alot of polish, to make it sparkle.
It looks like, given the age and that it has not been lived in for a while, that the house is in reasonably good condition so much so that if you needed to, you could live in it; not saying that you are going too or that the facilities are anywhere near the standard of modern homes.
Do you have ghost in your farm??
OMG this place is HUGE! Very nice, but you have to put enormous bit of work. Enjoy the path and build the home of your dreams!
I love the deliberate click clack of the electric
Cheers from Idaho, US
Me too :-) we want to keep these original ones on the ground floor
Great property and a lot of work, but after seeing your work in the garden, I'm sure you'll get through it. Those plaster walls will be a challenge.
Many thanks! We have no other choice left but to get through it 😀
These plaster walls 😬 I keep postponing this messy and dusty job but it is about time...
How much did the property cost and how big is it?
Вот вам, ребята, работа предстоит чудовищная. Но зато, не сомневаюсь, какой будет результат!
You guys are young and have time to make that place really beautiful. Great videos. My wife and I bought a small farm 8 years ago and we are still cleaning it up (:
Good candidate...sturdy , roomy , good sized rooms.....bad : cold walls , cold floor , old plumbing , old electric , old windows and probably old roof....GUT , WARM INSUL FLOOR , INSUL WALLS , NEW FURNACE , ELEC , PLUMBING , WINDOWS...LETS GO..!
Just discovered your Chanel all the way over here in Australia loving it allready
You have a big job, but it has so much potential! I am sure it will be beautiful and I am going to follow your progress. Isn’t De hoeve a Belgium brewery? I love Belgium beer! Just found you from Farmhouse Vernacular!
Hi Cookie, it is a pleasure to welcome you here. De hoeve = the farm, brewery will be brouwerij. And yes, Belgian beer is just TOP! Never liked/drank it before, but here in Belgium... so many flavours that everyone for sure can find the perfect match.
@@DeHoeveOldBelgianFarm yes, my son said it meant the barn, he was close, lol.
wow, the inside looks very good considering how worn and weathered the exterior looks. Now that you have the yard cleaned up you can pull in your car under the roof. That will be great. Brick ceilings inside? I have never seen that before. The kitchen will be entirely changed as well as the bathroom.....lots of work ahead but you don't seem to be afraid of hard work. I am surprised the electricity is still working. Make sure the roof or walls don't leak. Then repair and update wiring, plumbing and heating. Then finally you can remove paint from doors and woodwork inside while your kitchen and bath are redone. Update flooring and dry wall. Take it one day at a time. Once you can set up a few rooms where you can temporarily live, then you can work on the house all the time when you are not doing your day jobs. If you watch Farmhouse Vernacular on YT you can see how a couple from Kentucky USA are renovating their 1905 farmouse.
Hi Virginia, thanks a lot for all your advices. That is approx. the order we are going to start from once the demo is finished.
Love Paige, adorable storytelling skills 😍
Pozdrav od Renate iz Rijeke Hrvatska Croatia Europa 👍
15:32 its is in russian? 'Подними'(rise it up)
Yep, in russian :-)
You have a beautiful property/farm. There are so many buildings! And all are made so well, with brick. Sad to hear you're tearing any of them down but looks like you have SIX if that pic was all your property. Also, you have a beautiful accent but I cannot understand you because you are speaking too softly. You might consider adding subtitles since this video is a tour of your property. Thanks for the tour 💗
Charming house from outside but very old and lots of small rooms inside. I would open up the living dining and probably the kitchen as well. Put huge glass windows and foldable glass wall that opens up to garden. Open concept. Not much architectural details to make it pretty. Weird ceilings.
Thanks Nik, that’s pretty much what we have in plans, yes. The main building we won’t rebuild. But the kitchen was added later and is in former barn. That’s why so small. And the ceiling out of bricks is very typical here in sheds. It will be in the second phase of the project - rebuild the barn.
Interesting prospect. Do one room at a time. Otherwise, house will be demolition site and become depressing. Keep your chin up, drink lots of hot tea, eat crumpets often. You'll be fine. May G_D be with you...e
OK, so if this is Episode #5, where are the #1-4?
Anyway, I wonder what gave you the courage and strength to buy this house. Such a sorry state, almost crying for help or to be put out of its misery.
omg. Please told us, that you still have those Backery Oven stuff
I very much enjoy your channel. I have just subscribed. It is just a pity I cannot hear very clearly when you speak. I would love to know what you are saying.
Most are poor and cannot buy or give help. Here are people, who get about 6000 euros month and have debts to pay. I wish you good luck and pray.
I hope you can keep the windows! Beautiful house!
I do want to keep them :-) they are in a good state, just need some restoration and painting. Thanks, Neva!
👍👍👍
Very interesting and want to watch, but you need to speak up a little bit louder. I could hardly hear you and I have excellent hearing. lol It is going to be beautiful, once again, when you get finished.
Have you done the main living yet. Just subscribed few weeks ago. Is it finished in older videos main house?
Я думал, это Англия. А почему подстрочник на русском не сделать? Чтобы мы тоже понимали. А зачем убрали даже полы в доме? Полы были хорошие, насколько я видел. Люстры, потолки кирпичные зачем убрали? На российскую аудиторию ваши видео не расчитаны.
Русские? Я думал послышалось... Ан нет, русский язык.
OMG - what Potential - and what a lot of Work
I liked to see inside all. You perhaps could make motel, a cheaper place than hotel, where less rich could come and have bed and breakast night or more nights, if you like.
A lot of false ceilings. Should be interesting to see what the original ceilings are made of and what condition they are in. Once you mitigate the the leaks, you will have won a big part of the battle.
Hi, so we are looking at the same kind of project. Do you mind sharing how you found it? This seems to be the biggest te challenge at the moment
Great, love the glass above the main front door and the old 1930s light switches, are the baker-lite ?
Lovely old interior doors and fireplace, lucky you.
А бани или аналога ей нет? Эта ужасная ванная и всё? Есть банька в планах? Кстати это здание с печью под баньку просто просится. На верху комнату для отдыха и раздевалку а внизу парная с моечным.
Amazing 🥰
Are you going to farm? The barns have milking stations.
It will be very interesting to see your work on the home.
