The bathroom wall that needs to be reinforced but has already been tiled: Rather than rip out all that tile, open up the wall on the outside of the bathroom and thus leave all or most of the tile in place. and only have to replace plain drywall.
Hello neighbor! We live on the other side of the canal and have watched your build in awe from the first shovel oh so long ago! Looking so forward to having you and your family move in and get settled! Just can't wait to see what's next with the landscaping! What trees are in your "orchard?" See you soon!
900 days is not that bad for a huge custom home with indoor pool, basketball court, etc. We have also been building a custom home on the side of a mountain in So Cal. Yesterday was day 1460 (4 years). We still have another 6 months to go. Great work and love see the videos on your progress!
The before and after sponsored by was HILARIOUS. you’re right, it looks WAYYYYY better after. I don’t even know what room was my favorite, the laundry room was ahhhhhmazing!! The mudd room is a dream, all of it. The kitchen. The tile, the herringbone pattern in the mud room is gorgeous, beautiful house. I was like 😮😮😮 thru the entire video!!
Your house is insane! Way to go!!! A lot of your "mistakes" sounds like things you just wouldn't know, if you didn't know. There's so many moving pieces with a build like this and so much going on, I feel like as someone who isn't a professional contractor, there's no way you could have caught most of those issues you had! Glad the house is almost done and congrats on all your hard work paying off 👏
The only thing I wished you had was a sauna. I live in Utah and I am building a sauna in the garage. My father has stage 4 prostate cancer and I know the sauna will help him detox his body and fight this cancer. It will help you detox after a workout and children will love it, too.
Congratulations to you and the family! It’s beautiful and I am excited for you all! Also, we will keep you all in our prayers for all that you are going thru. May The Lord continue to bless you!
Just watching your video showing that beautiful kitchen.....now I remember Maddie dancing around it....' I will fight for you ...., I'm not giving up.... and the real disaster was losing her. Your videos give me strength EVERY day....I'm not giving up ❤
What a beautiful home!!! The color blend in so well (from door hinges to faucets to door knobs, etc). The attention to details are amazing. Beautiful dream home, even got a basket ball and movie theater. Wonder how much it cost to built.
This hurts to watch with home prices dropping dramatically. Would take a loss even if you tried to sell now likely. But... if you can afford it, keep it, what a gorgeous home!!!
Your unwavering ability to be positive in the face of obstacles (family, evictions, contractors, etc) is the reason you continue to thrive and I continue to believe this is one of the most inspirational channels out there.
Should’ve done the house design like a story board movie that way the contractors and subcontractors would’ve known everything you wanted it at a time and not said it’s your fault that’s just an excuse for them not want to spend the money to correct their mistakes.
House looking great ! Hope you get lots of enjoyment from all that hard work ! Continued prayers for your wife and brother ! Can’t wait to see next update on landscaping and theatre. Would love to hear the wife play the violin in one of these vlogs
Well done Chandler!!! I have been watching the build since day one...Well worth the wait :) I absolutely love how everything has come together and I can't wait to see how you guys furnish your DREAM HOME...God Bless!!!
I have no idea how you locked in an interest that low for that length of time without paying a TON of money to lock it that long. The bank would be taking it in the shorts other wise when you close.
Omg I can only imagine how amazing the house smells!!! When we finished our new build the smell of the new house 😍😍😍😍 almost as good as a new baby smell! Much love to your family! It’s clear how grateful and hardworking you guys are
Great video! For a custom home every single tiny detail/finish no matter how small needs to be determined, specified and priced out at the beginning especially for a cost plus build.
ANYTHING custom, ALWAYS, costs more, ALWAYS takes longer, whether you plan worst case scenario or not, if you want to finish on time/ on budget, double your original quotes and time frames, then add 25%, and consider yourself lucky ,if you pull it off. What a dump. Even tract housing projects, and rehab's are clusterfuks at the end/ wrap-up/ punch list phase.
Congratulations on your dream house! Looks amazing. There is a reason Custom homes are so much harder to build. I great owners rep is always recommended.
That's a LOT of house. I'm curious why a McMansion? I envisioned your sweet family in a 2,000 ft² cottage with lots of charm...this just seems like overkill in every way.
It is clear, they were trying to set up a home like their parents and grandparents have/had. When family wants to come stay with them or needs to stay with them.. There is plenty of room and the ability to maintain comfort, privacy, and function.
Awesome video chandler. That’s one heck of a house! Would love to see you do a grand total of what everything cost beginning to end including landscaping and furniture. Staying tuned.
@@kaden56 just coming from California it’s weird that it has a garage door vs nice French doors into the pool room. Why not a sliding glass door instead with some tint if he wanted an indoor/outdoor feel. It’s such an odd design choice with no cars being parked inside
@@donttouchmysilver8202 Fair enough. It’s a common design where I live to have in/outdoor areas separated by garage doors. There is a big new home down the street from us that has a theatre room separated from their back deck by two large garage doors that have the same look as the one he has by his pool. I think the benefit is that it’s automatic, easy, automated, etc. A living room would obviously not take that approach haha, but I think it’s appropriate for a pool room.
The black hardware looks very nice in the rooms that have them. The stairs going up to your pool might look nice in a Line-X type of surface.....durable also.....pretty much any color....even two tone.
A lot of negative jealous comments on here. Why? Chandler has obviously earned this. Its a beautiful home and I am happy to see people make their dreams come true. I wish his wife would have had more time to enjoy her dream home.
I don’t think that Chandler understands that most of the country today are working 2 jobs just to put food on the table and can’t relate to this. That said, It has to be bittersweet with losing Maddy so soon after moving in. I wish you and the children much happiness in this stunning home. God bless
Just the living room of this house would make me happy. And here he’s complaining about issues that he encountered while building “his dream home”. Now don’t get me wrong. I have my own home and it’s a typical three bedroom two bathroom 1700 ft.² home my point is humans will never be happy no matter how much they have. They will always be some type of negative issue that they have to focus on no one has ever said “I am 100% happy with everything I have and everything I have done”
Their problem is pride. People are so proud they can’t appreciate anything. 😔 I live in a 900 ft.² rental with my beloved family. Three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and we are grateful for what we have. We have humility. 🙂 It is a fact, the rich are proud, the poor are humble.
I would rather have seen you and Maddy & your children in a cozy 3 bedroom home, all healthy and happy- than a custom built mansion. My condolences on Mandy's death. I hope your brother is in remission.
Chandler this house came out beautiful! I'm sure there were times you wanted to give up but you pushed through only because you had no other option. True inspiration!!!
The Pyramids with thousands of Jews working for years got them finished faster than your dream home is getting done.😁😛😜😝 I’m Jewish so this is NOT hate speech. Like your videos.
The bathroom wall that needs to be reinforced but has already been tiled: Rather than rip out all that tile, open up the wall on the outside of the bathroom and thus leave all or most of the tile in place. and only have to replace plain drywall.
Exactly my thought as well!

Looking so forward to having you and your family move in and get settled! Just can't wait to see what's next with the landscaping! What trees are in your "orchard?" See you soon!
I must say the compound is massive!
Just to remember people watching this that this big of a house does not make sense for most people.
Exactly!!
Buy a heat pump dryer, no vent needed! We bought one a couple months ago and it’s great.
900 days is not that bad for a huge custom home with indoor pool, basketball court, etc. We have also been building a custom home on the side of a mountain in So Cal. Yesterday was day 1460 (4 years). We still have another 6 months to go.

That’s what’s wrong with this country. Trades not collage
As I watch this I’m thrilled that Maddy got to enjoy the house for a short time. God is good. I hope the memories made last a lifetime ❤️❤️❤️
Definitely a peak inside how the other side lives.
Hmmm.
Peacocks

To build any home to me would be a dream. I’ve always wanted to do just that.
The tilework and the kitchen area are an absolute favorite! Love every detail in your home. Great work!
Just watching your video showing that beautiful kitchen.....now I remember Maddie dancing around it....' I will fight for you ...., I'm not giving up.... and the real disaster was losing her. Your videos give me strength EVERY day....I'm not giving up ❤

Nice house, but man I don't know if I could live in something that nice.
This hurts to watch with home prices dropping dramatically. Would take a loss even if you tried to sell now likely. But... if you can afford it, keep it, what a gorgeous home!!!
Your unwavering ability to be positive in the face of obstacles (family, evictions, contractors, etc) is the reason you continue to thrive and I continue to believe this is one of the most inspirational channels out there.
Absolutely beautiful home I’m happy for you and your family. Hope you and yours have many many years of joy living there!

Love the way the house has turned out. Great job.
I have no idea how you locked in an interest that low for that length of time without paying a TON of money to lock it that long. The bank would be taking it in the shorts other wise when you close.
The house turned out amazing! Still need to catch my breath. 🤩 so stoked for y’all.
Omg I can only imagine how amazing the house smells!!! When we finished our new build the smell of the new house 😍😍😍😍 almost as good as a new baby smell! Much love to your family! It’s clear how grateful and hardworking you guys are
His wife died I don’t think he cares 😢
I sure don't care for the gold fixtures at first I thought they were cooper
looks amazing...BUT how does it not drive you nuts that the pot lights arent centred on the hood in the kitchen
Great video! For a custom home every single tiny detail/finish no matter how small needs to be determined, specified and priced out at the beginning especially for a cost plus build.
I love that indoor pool area and the gymnasium/basketball court!!
ANYTHING custom, ALWAYS, costs more, ALWAYS takes longer, whether you plan worst case scenario or not, if you want to finish on time/ on budget, double your original quotes and time frames, then add 25%, and consider yourself lucky ,if you pull it off. What a dump.

That's a LOT of house. I'm curious why a McMansion? I envisioned your sweet family in a 2,000 ft² cottage with lots of charm...this just seems like overkill in every way.
I agree it’s so over the top who needs a house that ridiculously huge with 4 laundry rooms? There must be 20 tv’s . I wonder what that costs?
I guess you can have overkill when you’re a millionaire and dying 🤷🏻♀️!
What does it matter now 😢
If I had the resources, I would do the same thing. I love spreading out in my home, where everyone has their own space.
It is clear, they were trying to set up a home like their parents and grandparents have/had. When family wants to come stay with them or needs to stay with them.. There is plenty of room and the ability to maintain comfort, privacy, and function.
You videos are very comforting
That is a mansion! Absolutely stunning!
Any updates on furnished home and floorplan please? My favourite is the pool area. Enjoy your lovely new home.
Your house is absolutely incredible man! Congratulations.
I think Miele has a ventless dryer if you decide the vent is too difficult to add.
House is insane! Beautiful!
Thank You for sharing! The house looks awesome!
Your theater room is a 10 out of 10
Do either of you think this is too much house?
Yes. Way too much!
Good luck cleaning that house hopefully you get a full time person to clean it
Congratulations i'm happy that your too, kindly in the next video I wish to see your children, i miss them.I give you a credit for being a good Dad
Came together really nice. Thanks for the input.
Great update! Wonderful looking project. Enjoy 👍🏼
Chandler’s home plus the Stradman’s garage would be epic!
Miele has a ventless dryer
Chandler your home is beyond awesome. Did Maddy ever get to spend even one night there? God bless you, your children and how is your brother doing?
Yea she did. Watch other videos
@@donnawojcik1271 Thank you for your reply. I did look for it but did not see it.
It is crazy to think that it has been 800 days! Coming along awesome thought!
Beautiful home Chandler. Sending well wishes from Canada to your wife and brother 🙏
looks super cool, congrats
I discovered you yesterday, so far it's been good following you.
I watched every minute of this video like Im going to build my own mansion any time soon.. But great info. AnD AMAZING HOUSE thanks for sharing!
😂
Awesome video chandler. That’s one heck of a house! Would love to see you do a grand total of what everything cost beginning to end including landscaping and furniture. Staying tuned.
Chandler, given all the setbacks, did you have to make any or more compromises than you anticipated?
I love everything about your house minus the entry and the pool in the garage
Interested in why you don’t like the pool? Also just because it has a garage style door doesn’t mean it’s in the garage.

The home is Amazing. So sad she didn't get to enjoy it as a forever home.🙏🤲
I miss your videos chandler you have to come back to UA-cam .
The black hardware looks very nice in the rooms that have them.
The stairs going up to your pool might look nice in a Line-X type of surface.....durable also.....pretty much any color....even two tone.
This house is so stunning Chandler. Lucky man. ❤
Except for his wife died. The house prob means very little now 😢
Holy pavers wow looks beautiful!
Wow! I learned a lot. I hope ur wife got to live in the house a while before she passed away. God bless u.
1:41 did you absolutely HAVE to zoom in that close?? lmfao
A lot of negative jealous comments on here. Why? Chandler has obviously earned this. Its a beautiful home and I am happy to see people make their dreams come true. I wish his wife would have had more time to enjoy her dream home.
It sure will be nice when it’s done
Beautiful home and congratulations

Re upload? I swear I watched this yesterday...
There was no audio yesterday
@@Zbecker13 Huh, there was when I watched it.
New title, same video.
Doubling up his money
@@bigxrecords7375 lol get the bag ig
Congrats man love to see it . I’m going to build my dream house it’s going to crazy.
It looks fantastic! It might cost another mil to furnish it 😮❤
This is inspiring man! Great video
My mom is homeless she would take a chair and a bath tub and be soo happy
😢
Then go get another job and help her. Why would you let your mother be homeless?!?! Gross of you to be mad at someone for being successful
His wife is dead so yeah. Is your mom dead ?
My mom married rich and killed her husband. You can do better!
Awesome home! Well done.

Whoever did your paver work did an amazing job!
Nice. How many square feet you go with heated
looking grand. I build hillside homes in LA I wonder how much that house costs in Idaho to build?
keep up the great work Chandler
Why didn’t you make a herringbone pattern to greet you in the entry
Beautiful dream home!!
I would rather have seen you and Maddy & your children in a cozy 3 bedroom home, all healthy and happy- than a custom built mansion. My condolences on Mandy's death. I hope your brother is in remission.
Do u need a house that big? Really now.
200k worth of furniture 😮that’s Top G only lol
Beautiful!!
Build a massive koi pond! And do an adult hide and go seek video!!!
That's a huge liability I wouldn't have built it. Smaller is better in the long run.
Your tile guys floored you? Haha nice pun.
Chandler this house came out beautiful! I'm sure there were times you wanted to give up but you pushed through only because you had no other option. True inspiration!!!
absolutely stunning!
GORGEOUS
The Pyramids with thousands of Jews working for years got them finished faster than your dream home is getting done.😁😛😜😝
I’m Jewish so this is NOT hate speech.
Like your videos.
What was total cost? Nice home!
One billion dollars
@@jayc4715😂
Holy crap I wonder how much all that cost!
So sad Maddie doesn’t get to enjoy the house, Jessica does.
You will need a few more kids to fill this house up... 🤣 It's just massive.
I have a friend that lives near the home
How do people afford this
I see you let that master carpenter you evicted a while back work on your house lol
Nice house!
Congrats! Well Deserved
