Come and see inside our abandoned 1880s old stone cottage in Ireland. We bought this uninhabitable farmhouse in the Irish countryside and used our life savings to make this move and change our way of life. But was it worth it? Come see what your life savings will buy you!

Fireplace and ceiling are gorgeous!! Window sills, and large window nooks-love them!
when the only heat in your house was the fireplace, you made it your wall. when the stone got warmed from the fire, it spread through the wall, hence more heat.
Absolutely! Makes total sense. The same principle with modern underfloor heating too - the entire concrete slab is the thermal mass equivalent to the big stone built fireplace wall.
So much potential and fun times ahead! And of course,laughter, which is the best medicine!😂
You're doing great guys. Greetings from Co. Kerry. Really enjoying watching your clips with my daughter...shout out to your own daughter who's been working hard too raking in the field. Looking forward to the next video! Slán 😊
Thanks a mil - appreciate you following along. 💚
I suppose the gammy lights can be changed for something far nice. At least they’re wired. That stone wall inside is lovely. Getting rid of the yellow and pink paint will do so much for making the stone work pop. They really did get the place back to front 😅
Wow what a dream cottage to restore to its original glory. Lucky find, the land makes it even better.
Greetings from Canada. Boy that place has potential in spades! I love the glass bump outs and the stone and vaulted ceilings! Oh my. The developer put a lot of money into the glass and windows! I hope you keep the ceilings. Just paint them or sand them and whitewash them. Can’t way to see where you take it. Good luck.
Looking forward to travelling with you on your Irish Cottage adventure
Thanks for following along
Welcome to Ireland, folks. Im sure you will fit in very well and have a brilliant life here. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the house. As things go, it's not in that bad a condition.
Thanks for the warm welcome. Not bad condition at all - we are very lucky it is dry inside, almost a miracle!
Following because we are doing something similar. Similar but different in that ours is a new build in Northern Ireland but similar as in off-grid. Best of luck, look fwd to progress.
Thanks a mil!
The North of Ireland.
I've been watching people do this for over 10 years. I'm also British so it's far harder for us to find land that works for the right price.
Thanks for bringing Ireland to my attention!
Glad we could help - when we realised Ireland was not just a possibility, but the best option for many many reasons. It felt like such a relief.
You are so lucky that you were able to purchase something sight unseen & not get scammed. I had a friend that got scammed bad. I can’t wait to see what you do with the place, how exciting for you. I hope it turns out to be everything you want.
Sorry to hear about your friend. Thanks for following along
Your ceilings can be absolutely stunning. Here in Norway paneled ceilings are normal. Both in older and newer houses. I have it too. However they are painted and that make a huuuuuge difference. Dont tear them down. Do a search instead. That should save you a lot of money and a lot of time.
That fireplace is gorgeous!
Excited to get it lit!
K
My guess is I think you are probably going to tackle the bedroom roof and beams etc first.
It will take time but it will be gorgeous, I’m sure.
Welcome to Ireland, looks like a great project, well done!!!
Thanks a mil!
I think the house was quite biggish. Why do you have to get ride of the ceiling in the first room? I liked it, very charming
Is backed by rotten chipboard so all needs to comedown. Reinstating is a different story. Thanks for following along
We will be retiring in just a few years and I have said I could live in "a dump" if it's structurally sound, offers privacy and NO BARKING DOGS! I like your little place there, all the best from Colorado, USA.
hard to find peace and quiet these days in the countryside , due to wanna be youTube stars buying old county houses then making a never ending racket with renovations, we have a large country house in Sweden with lots of acres, and such wannabe UA-cam stars bought the old house next door and started the never ending hammering and banging, we endure it for 18 months, 7 days a week, morning till evening .. it was constant, drove us mad, so we had to move away.... They just don't care, its all about getting subscribers and balls to the neighbours..
@@thedarklandsmusicthey'll have no such issue here.
Tough luck
Beautiful couple and wonderful space! I hope you keep your sense of humor!
Me. I just subscribed 😅. I love such adventures. Looking forward to seeing more of them.
Me too 🥰
"Couldn't be happier with it." It's yours! All yours. Not quite a blank slate, but nearly so, at least has bones to work with. For whatever it's worth to you, I'm happy for you and your little girl. Good things to come if you work hard and make it yours.
Congratulations!! It’s absolutely beautiful, you can do it! ❤️🙏
Thanks a mil
it will look awesome when you get it done. The ceilings look great , just undertake one room at a time .
Hello I’m Ava’s friend and I saw you in supervalu
Those appendages can be beautiful, window seats or built-in desk
Good luck guys, Lots of work ahead,
and then some!
You both are wonderful, and this is so exciting! I noticed that when you talk about the property, it sometimes sounds a bit negative. This is an amazing opportunity, and I am confident you will do brilliantly! Embrace this experience and focus on the positive aspects of it. I mean no disrespect by saying this, and I apologise if my comment is misplaced. Please feel free to delete it if necessary.
Looking forward to seeing what you both have in store for us. Best of luck to you both from Bonny Scotland
My mum is from Dundee. Thanks for following along
Blessings be to you all xo
Hi. New sub from Canada. Looking forward to watching your content 🙂
You have a different definition of "uninhabitable" than some of us. You have a roof over your head, protection from rain and wind, and can make do with temporary measures for cooking, bathing, and the loo. It looks habitable to me in the short term.
We are happy to make do - in fact it's exactly what we plan to do. As soon as the heating is installed we are in!
A property needs heating, facilities to cook, go to the toilet and wash yourself to be considered habitable by law.
We were not living in it to begin with as it is one of the requirements of the grant.
Thanks for following along
So excited for you both and can't wait to join you on your journey and see it all come to fruition! Gentle suggestion...hubby needs a microphone or to speak louder, it's difficult to hear him 😊
Yep, Cori tells me that all the time. Thanks for following along. K
Good Luck, ill be following your journey 👍
Be interesting to see how you go
Thanks for following along
4:25 This moment right here, is why the house wasn’t finished and sold off 😂 However I’m looking forward to watching the transformation, I’m sure it’s going to be stunning.
Hehe! Those pesky ghosts... Thanks for following along
Great video, liked and subscribed.
Thanks a mil!
How much was the property?
and where did you find it?
New to your channel, great fun project but too much nervous laughing… hopefully with more experience that will resolve.
Hi new , what your plan for the land?
Hello and welcome. Did you watch our land tour video - it gives an overview of some plans: ua-cam.com/video/T7O1p6gx6Mk/v-deo.html
Did i miss the part where you mentioned how much you bought it for?
Every penny we had!
@@offgridirishhomestead I get that 😂 . I also get it'd be a nosey question down the pub but it's a massive piece of the journey you're sharing and I bet your audience are vicariously planning whether the same is possible through you 💁
Lovely People hate to think of disillusion coming your way How God's name you going to make living those places Money Pit All been tried before
What is your other channel?
@corilivesthedreamlife
how much did you pay for it ?
Everything we had!
How much did you pay? In American dollars?
We'll have a video talking about this subject in the not too distant.
K
Cos it's, like, REALLY complicated maths to convert currencies.......!
It has good bones so gorgeous it will be 🇦🇺🎸⚡️🤘🏾🤘🏼💋💜
I am sure when this house is complete, it will be a forever home that is stunning. It will hold stories and memories that will be in your daughter's future and beyond!!! I am so excited for you!!!💚💚💚
What a fantastic house, and you get to live in Ireland! You might find The Yorkshire Carpenter, on UA-cam, a very helpful fellow to follow. He’s been restoring a Victorian?, stone cottage and is a master builder. He may also be available to ask questions of. This will be a wonderful project for you, and I wish you every success!❤️🇨🇦
Thanks for the recommendation, will check them out.
Kinging it with Craig & Amy too. They just bought a similar cottage in Scotland. Happy remodeling 😊
@@Sassygagirl Haha. As much as I love Kinging it, I'm not sure their exactly "experts" you would take tips from. Hard grafters and willing to give it a go, maybe, fun as heck, sure, but basically clueless when it comes to renovations.
You’re lovely people, wishing you well.
You are very fortunate that the construction company you bought it from had done some major work like taking down walls on the ground floor, and gutting the kitchen, bathroom and so on. Here in Northern Italy, there are many houses with the pine ceilings, walls and doors. As long as there is no mold behind them you'll be fine. You can do spot checks behind the pine walls and look from the attic onto the roof side of the pine ceilings. You can easily sand the wood and paint them white. It makes the space feel much larger, and you will preserve the protection from the damp keeping them in place. Thus, you don't have to redo the plaster inside the house as often after heavy rains. For more than a decade I lived in an ancient stone house in a borgo in northern Italy, and trust me when I say that your number one problem with a stone house will always be damp coming in from the outside. Wishing you both the best of luck. It's a very special property.
we bought a bit of a doer upper in western Norway, same situation almost with wood panelled ceilings which have darkened with age..painted with what they call 'sperregrunn' fırst to stop colour and knots showing through the paint...some sort of sealant I guess, then went with 'cotton white', not as stark as simple white (it's what the Swedish ppl use) a bit softer and warmer feel, just bounces any light around nicely..works a treat...bit of a job ref the painting with grooves etc but well worth it...
Love the style of the Irish Cottage ~ what fun it will be watching your renovation progress! Congratulations.
Such a beautiful cottage in an idyllic location. Will be lovely to watch it being restored. The very best of luck to you. 🍀
Lived in Kerry for 8 years , buitiful country my 4 kids grew up there , back in London due to personal reasons but still miss the way of life , good luck and definitely be watching 👍 by the way the property is awesome 🔥
We lived in Kerry as well just outside of Cahersiveen. Couldn’t bear the winters in the end as the storms, wind and rain would go on for months. We loved living there but glad we’re in Spain now where winter is about 3 days rather than 6 months. I love being outside and we didn’t use our garden at all really as the midges and rain kept us inside sadly. On a sunny day, Ireland is the most beautiful country in the world.
We moved to kerry from Surrey 15 years ago and love it, down near Cromane just outside of Killorglin
This is a beautiful cottage and property. Wishing you all the best with restoring it! I am sure it will be lovely! 😊
Consider, seriously, terracing the Steep field where you wanted your veg and fruits next to your cottage. The Portuguese, And Italians terrace their mountains and hills for their farms. I am sure you, with research could do the same.
This is going to be amazing ,I have to say you two are the best looking couple .I look forward to watching the renovations and your channel grow , Good luck from California
A bed in the middle of the room isn’t impossible. I’ve seen it done in many cottages and it looks amazing. Just Google some images for ideas
Thanks for the affirmation!
K
I've seen people "float" the bed in the center of the room, with a wardrobe butted up to it to form a headboard/wall/divider. The wardrobe was heavy enough so it wouldn't slide, and they finished off the back of it as a decorative headboard. It also created a dressing area behind the bed. Just a thought💕(or alternatively create an office space❤)
Nice idea, thanks for the inspiration.
Finally, I've been waiting forever to see the renovations ... GOOD JOB! FROM us in Alaska
What a lovely quirky house! Looking forward to seeing how you get on. I watched the tour on your other channel too but I like how you’ve made a dedicated house channel ❤
Ahh thank you!! So pleased to have you with us 😍
Good luck both .Excited to follow your journey .A.Sandra xx❤
All the best, looking forward to following your adventures 😊.
I would keep the wood and add some shiplap walls, Paint the wood white to make it brighter. Now whether or not you want to keep it everywhere is another question. Good luck.
In Arizona we call those glass rooms "Sun Rooms" and they are Lovely, for the views overlooking your little farm....Many people build in benches around the 3 walls, with cushioned tops, for places to sit and sometimes shelves under the cushioned benches for storing books, makong a nice little light infused reading nook. (can even have a little portable table for the center, to set your tea on 🥰 Have fun...cant wait to watch your progress - new Sub ❤
They are definately sun traps for sure, catches the Sun after 2pm until sunset. Would be a perfect little reading nook! Thanks for following along
Ok, Im on the hook and subscribed... best of luck from Scotland
Looks like a lot of potential. With your positive and fun attitude I think you will come out of this with a lovely off grid family home.
TY!
The ceiling is gorgeous just sand and paint white to bring light in
...yes, that sanded off-white finish or bleached-wood look. Depending on how thick the floor is, they could dig a sunken living room.
Wood is very expensive and will only increase in value. I love the beauty of natural wood in a home. There is a lot of space that is painted and that can be white.
Happy to see you have been able to start the renovations. Have you checked out the You-tube channels for Camper Vibe and the Irish Homestead? They are both renovating old Irish farmhouses, too.
Hey, yes we have been following both @campervibe and @theirishhomestead for a while now, before they had their own Irish projects. Cori and I had decided to purchase in Ireland at the end of '22, so we found it interesting that folks we were following ended up on similar journeys with the same destination. Thanks for following along. K
The cottage has lots of character and is charming nestled in the beautiful landscape. The solarium areas could be a delightful sitting area to watch the season's and weather roll in. The wooden ceiling remind me of swedish homes.. GOOD luck with the reno's. Looking forward to following your adventure.
Thanks for following along
Look up how to use the saw correct. The piece you saw off has to have the ability to fall away. If you put the plank on two points and cut in the middle, the saw blade will always be squeezed and kick back! Ask a cabinetmaker or carpenter please, before you hurt yourself or someone else.
You are absolutely correct and thank you for pointing out my folly. Unfortunately at the moment I don't have the luxury of a workbench or any saw horses. I am poverty mode, working on the floor most of the time. The saw is pretty low HP, and will bog and bind up the blade before causing any kickback.
K
It's going to be beautiful! I hope you restore the inglenook! The huge chimney breast upstairs is so cool
It would be really cool. Need to investigate to see if its possible.
You got me at "slow and painful process!" 😄😄 Will definitely be following along to see your progress! Best of luck on your new adventure!
Nice house. Will watch to see what you do with it. But, I've lived in stone houses in the UK, you are going to be sooooooo cold when winter comes.
Will have a big ground source underfloor heating slab keeping the old thick walls at a decent temperature year round (hopefully). Thanks for following along.
@@offgridirishhomestead That sounds interesting. I hope you show us how it works.
Wow you guys are living the dream 😊 I’d love to have the nerve to sell up everything and do exactly this… my 2 sons are teenagers now and I’ve an 11 year old, maybe one day… would you be willing to share how much this place cost? I’m in Northern Ireland and currently have a mortgage but if I sold up I’d have 150k equity so I’m wondering how far that would go 🤔 new subscriber here and looking forward to watching your journey ❤
150k would get you something with a bunch of potential. It is likely to be a big project though so long as you are prepared for a doer-upper! The vacant homes grant has definitely inflated the price tag of a lot of these types of properties and in our travels we struggled to find something with over 1ac - it seems to always be split off and sold separately - but they do crop up.
We are doing a video on our costings in the not too distant, so watch this space.
Thanks for following along - and never let go of your dream.
Just for your info the triangular roof windows were installed because it was a way of introducing natural light into loft rooms but without increasing property taxes. We have the same in France.
We bought cottage 5 years ago in the middle of no where we did it all ourselves before they started giving grants out
I will say trade people in Ireland are VERY VERY EXPENSIVE and any rubbish doesn’t matter what it’s is it’s down to you to get rid off it builders they take nothing away
Which part Ireland are you in ?
What’s your budget??? Apart from the €70 k grant and 13 month time frame
We are down in the SW. Budget is kind of moot, as we have no money left after buying the place. So it's pretty much spend it as we earn it. Will be doing a good chunk of work ourselves - nearly everything. Unless of course there is a good reason not to - which certainly wont be lack of willingness or enthusiasm. Thanks for following along
Hi, I have taken the time to see the above video of your house, and your viewpoints. Unless you have 150k eu to spend I would ask you to to review the following comments, bearing in mind that an awful lot of work has already been done so far, tou have a big potential for loss, and it has already been structurally assessed I would expect from builder ,so you are seriously lucky.
1- Roof fibre slate- these tiles are in excellent condition, maybe new from1980, and unless you will insulate the roof externally I would absolutely leave for the long term. It looks as if they have been re-layed after the rafters have been replaced, if not new. Rafters look like a botch job, but I would look at the rafter plates to see if that is the problem, shims if needed,- low cost. I would also look at cross bracing if really wrong. I would like to know if there is a membrane or felt under the slates there, and I suspect there is from 1980- solution in 4 down. The bowing roof should be structurally settled with no issue if wall plates underneath, put in two sets of cement/steel rafter plates, rafters , easily done if you want.
2-How could these roofs be insulated, or are they?
3-The external stone is joint rendered with cement instead of lime, which lets the wall breathe, you could spend summer eves replacing with lime, some time, using a used silicone empty tube gun.
4- Light- ok, ceilings are low, dark stain, but for a 5% light increase replacement I would leave it and use advice from a lighting expert- mood lights etc. However, long velux windows S facing? would rapidly improve this for low cost upstairs, and you would see what the roof insulation is like, and could you slip in Al foil by taking off the side cappings and pull through rolls of foil with rope- like electrical chasing.
I would invest in insulating the patio windows with ins curtains, shutters or other, for night heat loss, see after year, buy a cheap thermal unit to see around house for heat loss.
5-Wall insulation I suspect is your main priority after electrical. As the walls are stone it needs to breathe, so the insulation has to breathable- I would use the advice of a heating consultant- a civil engineer, not a gobdaw, as to what would be the best and fastest solution, along with querying IR house heating. You need to start on this after agreed plan.
6- Chimney main room comment flue- your flue is a 6" flue- source a 15cm or less flue liner, common, end of. Put in a 5 1/2" stick sideways up 3 ft. There was a 4" flue, but rare.
7- Dig a 4 ft deep trench around the back of the house and side this autumn, line with a 20 ton lorry load of chips to minimise dampness. Job no 3 in importance after wall ins, elec. Buy an Irish shovel, horse barrow. Local digger will do it easy, find area for subsoil near- build a mound garden feature of it.etc
8- Sand and repaint facia boards before sept,ladder, get extra wide gutters, clean 3 times Sept to March, trees,copper gutter would look great, this is important. Job no 5. Check where outflow goes 10m from house.
9- Ok up to this point you may be insulted, however for the next task you need a draw bar and a hammer, ear plugs, and a bag of luck, do you feel lucky? ready? The upstairs chimney brest is a dummy, similar to a four flue/ fireplace junction point. Should be made of timber, maybe cement plastered to fool people.. Inside will either be a corpse- check for missing local persons 1975, a shload of drugs from the sea, or disposable assets.Stay quiet, do not scream. It may be a water tank but that would be mad.
10- Do not buy roof elec panels due to dust inefficiency and poor actual return/time. Instead you could have a wind generator, battery source, some time. It is wiser to spend costs finding out year 1 what does not need to be replaced.
11-Plumbing- a modern septic tank would be worth while long term, shower/sink 4" Wavin piping can be run along parallel to rafters to side of house,2 floorboards off, take out cross braces then underground to main pipe, some will be separate, joining externally.Rebrace. Kitchen joining same, even if cut floor to go out back, easy. If necessary a 3 litre tank would be under sink/rafter as a slow release/narrow pipe from sinks.
12- Well drilling co's are reputable with good advice for well location etc, invest in UV system, double filtration tubes, check water sample local council, not hard water or e. coli expected from where you are- Is cattle slurry put out on field above you? do not ask, see high deep green grass growth.
12- There may be cold bridges around triangular windows, leave it and see over winter, also use spare door, do not buy another, price double for one door, you may replace some windows due to fogging at a later stage anyway, triple glazing long term necessary for main windows, glass house/ cold frames used for plants with exist windows. Use bleach to eliminate black mould.You could put up triang foil every night for loss if fog.
That is it as far as I can go, but this will minimise your potential loss and get best return for your investment, time. After electrical downstairs and insl walls and water,( you can do uptairs slowly) you should aim to be able to cook goose 25 Dec, if not try swan. No need to thank, you seem nice people.
What a beautiful place,who knows I can be your neighbours,just a dream for a place like this 😅😅😅😅
Good luck ☘
sand the ceiling back and light stain it white
to bring the grain out
would look stunning
Subbed cant wait to see what you do to the property
It is going to be fantastic once renovated.
I love when i come across new channels , can't wait to follow you both on your exciting journey
I love the moment the ghost made their presence known 4:26
Old homes have skeletons in the closet!
Have subbed but would love it if you would kill the background music esp while youre talking. 😊
I’ve just found your channel looks like it’s going to need a lot of insulation in the roof area and probably other areas, you probably know already but if you re-point the outside of the walls best to do it with lime mortar
Lime lime lime - absolutely! New material for us - having never worked on solid stone buildings before. Thanks for following along
be great to watch you 2 ,yesss come on start buildin xx
Im delighted u choose irelAnd but i would of choose a better weather country,im from wexford i tink u shud get goats for that ground,love ur video,
I love the cottage, good luck and I can’t wait to see the renovation begin. Hello from Florida USA 🇺🇸
Thank you!
Yay! 👏 looking forward to seeing what you do, so exciting 😀
Great new channel! Any way to save the square ceiling? Paint? It's beautiful wood, upstairs too, hope you plan to save it for up cycling later on, cupboards, dresser, storage boxes, and ?¿? Lining the appendages lower walls? 😅 Thanks for taking us along ❣️❣️❣️
Some good ideas there. The ceiling has to come down, as there is a bunch of warped chipboard backing it. The panelling is all pine (albeit very thin) - it won't go to waste. Will be up-cycled for some project somewhere :) Thanks for following along
are you going to bring back the original fire place, take down the wall blocking it? I think it would probably look better too, especially if they haven't destroyed it but left it intact...
am loving this new section & am very keen to see which way you go; putting new bathrooms in old houses is always a challenge, they always look like an after thought in most (mine is tacked on the back of the house with the laundry) wow over the front door is a nightmare disaster waiting to happen, do you need a bathroom upstairs?
can't wait til the next one comes out
thanx for sharing your cottage dream with us
I would love to take down the wall blocking it. Alas it seems someone has done a proper job blocking it up. It would also render our bedroom fireplace not usable if re-instated. So, lots of hurdles to doing so, not sure which way is right at the minute.
Bathroom upstairs is still undecided too. Biggest problem will be it needing a big ugly waste pipe ruining the beautiful stone walls.
Thanks for following along
I LOVE those windows that go outside a wee bit from the house. Sadly, they would have been better in wood... You may in time be able to have some stone made around the (new) windows on the outside. They do look odd being white metal, against the old stone walls. There could be someone out there to take it on. I would not give up...That always upsets me to see people put in the modern white metal windows and alongside something made of stone. In fact, me thinks they may have been knocked back if they had of said to your local council. Here in Australia, we have many old stone buildings going back 200 years. If the council finds a modern window, they tell you to remove it and use only wood. On another note, you can get someone in to 'sandblast' all the varnish off the ceilings and staircase & doors. Bringing the whole cottage to a lovely raw wood...Then you can do what you like with it once it has been cleaned down. That is one way to get it done very very quickly! It is so fast, and a great way to save weeks of work. Worth the price if you are time-poor. I have done many reno's in the last 45 years. Few things I wish I had known. Try to buy an inexpensive vacuum cleaner, that has bags. Sweeping can cause you issues with health, even after 1 reno!.. I found it is best to clean as much dirt up from each day's work...We have gone through 2 vacuum cleaners. It was well worth the effort and under $100 .Once you start to paint walls make sure they are VERY clean of any dust, from top to bottom. Never ever buy cheap rollers to paint with, you will be wasting time and they are total rubbish. Wishing you guys a great time for your lovely cottage. You're living the dream. :) P.S. Have a look on YT to see sandblasting if you haven't.
You are spot on, they would have been better in wood. Still deciding what to do with them, but remodelling them with Oak is top of the list at the moment. Also - again spot on re: vacuum cleaner. I have one which has survived two property renovations and it's definitely one of the most useful tools in the kit.
Funny you should mention the sandblasting, been considering it for prepping up prior to paint.

@@offgridirishhomestead It's going to be amazzzing when done, looking forward big time... :)

Those triangular windows (like in bedroom 2) that don't have a view would look amazing as arched lead windows 🤔 That room in particular could be quite gothic, accentuating the chimney geometry...
Gothic farmhouse, interesting! I do like a good bit of lead work.
You two are cute. Ill be watching. Good luck with your venture.
