    Hi Kevin! I usually just like and subscribe and don't usually comment. I found your channel just recently. So far I have enjoyed the garden tour, house tours, lemon madeleines and tea sandwiches. I also like the federal style and own a federal style sofa much like yours, not an original, just a reproduction. Watching your videos is like an escape to a world much described in books. Keep up the wonderful work, the house is shining like a gem!

    Mr. Jacobs, please be careful with stacking your firewood on your porch. Since you have wood lying right against your house, you're inviting termites and that's not a problem you want to face.
    I just found your channel and am enjoying the tours. I owned a 100 year old house for around 20 years and loved all the original woodwork and fireplaces. I know you will continue to enjoy yours for many years.

    Can't believe I hadn't stumbled upon your channel ages ago. It totally aligns with my philosophy on antiques, the love of the past and cooking.
    I've watched several of your videos, Kevin, and it looks like its a binge night tonight. Have subscribed this evening and I'm anticipating learning more
    about the house you and Mr. Fox are restoring. I have such respect for anyone willing to take on a labour of love of this magnitude. Best regards,
    Darryl

  • @maureenmckenna5220
    @maureenmckenna5220 2 роки тому

    Research has shown that when zoning laws in towns allow people to subdivide old houses into apartments, the area begins to deteriorate. So, first I am at a loss to understand why town boards don’t know this too, and why they would, therefore, allow this lovely old home to be subdivided. I know the story of the shape it was in, and that might be an eyesore, but subdividing it was also a sure fire loser. Love the idea of the firewood right outside the window. You don’t have to worry about termites in that cold climate, but in the South that wouldn’t work because those little critters would love that old wood on the porch! Learned this when we moved to Virginia.

    Count Rumfort is the best functioning fireplace ever designed Kevin. At one point they were illegal in New Hampshire because they were deemed too shallow with that tiny flu, but that would be my choice, You said that you and Mr. Fox took out the wood cook stove. That is too funny. We put out kitchen wood stove back! It took me a year to restore it in one of our barns. Not only that, we designed our 2016 farm cottage " around" the Home Comfort ( AKA Matilda) We have an open concept kitchen/dining/ living room with cathedral ceiling. She is currently heating the area toasty warm! We do have a 2016 modern kitchen on one end of the room.
    Your dining room restoration is divine and classy. I like that you and Mr. Fox dine directly in front of the fireplace.
    My only question is the new kitchen. I have not taken a tour as yet, but I catch glimpses. I would have a Viking stove if I cooked as much as you do. My appeasement is that I have two stoves in the kitchen. Matilda and a five burner propane range. ~ Diane

    Perfect restoration. This is how a dining room SHOULD look. You were lucky that when the previous owners put in their horrendous fittings they didn't smash up that beautiful original marble fireplace. The oblong mirror looks slightly like the over mantle mirror in the parlour. Was it in place when you bought the house and if so is it possible it was perhaps bought by the owners who bought the over mantle mirror as a complimentary piece?

    Kevin, I just adore your home. It is absolutely beautiful. And the work that you and Mr. Fox put in on it is just spectacular. As an owner of many old homes though, I need to let you know I’ve been advised by many many people never to keep wood up against the back of your house like that. It will attract termites and they will climb up in your walls and consume your home before you know it could even be up in your attic and you wouldn’t even know it. I would move that wood away immediately. Best of luck and can’t wait to see further videos.

    My, that must have been an awful lot of work. But I'm so glad the two of you decided to put the effort into it. It has truly paid off. And what a clever idea with the firewood - to make sure you can reach it from the window! That way, you're sure to make good use of the fireplace. I love a dining room with a fireplace.
