The hole in the floor scares me ….my mind goes to someone falling down in the middle of the night. Is there a plan for that?
Trampoline below so they can bounce back up. Well, it worked in a cartoon. 😇

Yes! We are planning a whole new staircase with handrails that go upstairs!

I really like the way the room turned out, great job guys! I'm really enjoying the channel!!
Glad you enjoy it!
The loft does look beautiful. I would be putting a railing on at least 2 sides of the hole in the floor. Sleepy jaunts to the washroom would be dangerous without it.
That hole needs something for safety immediately.
Yes we have plans for a new staircase and hand rails
Awesome!!! Glow in the dark strips outlining the hole for the ladder would be helpful 👌 ❤❤❤
Rails around the stairs opening, one side swings open so whoever can close it at night! Love watching your videos!!!
The loft looks great! Protect the stairs too! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Looks great! You should put some kind of safety railing around the entrance to keep anyone from accidentally stepping off.
I listen while cleaning I hope I didn't miss you talking about it while getting linens.
Yes we have plans for a new staircase and railing
I love how the railing turned out, and the flooring looks great too. I've always tried to use what I had on hand first, like you did with the railing project. When you can make it work, it is a great boost to know you saved material that may have been discarded, plus it sure does help the budget!
Like others mentioned, I'm hoping there's a plan for something around the hatch for safety as well. Looking forward to the road trip episodes and seeing both of you up at your homestead! Take care! Enjoy your summer!
Great job on the loft!!! Looks super cozy
Thanks so much! 😊
Beautiful music, I enjoyed it. Looks gorgeous what you have done with the loft. Yes to a rail for the hole.
Thank you very much!
The loft looks amazing 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!!
I love your episodes! You guys have great camera presence. I am looking forward to watching all your homestead improvements. It’s better than watching HGTV!
Thanks so much! ☺️
Amazing transformation of the loft! Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, fabulous!! What a difference. Nice job! Love those bedcovers, too! ❤
Thank you. 😊
Those comforters are so cute on the loft beds.
Great work and transformation of the space!!! Railings and floor look great!!
Thank you very much!
Love how you are using things that you found there!!!!
You really have accomplished a lot since buying the property . So glad to see that awful black and white tile gone. Loft looks so nice.
Thank you!
Love how the floor looks.
Thank you! ☺️
Looks amazing!! Well done!
Thanks a lot!
The ceiling in your loft is beautiful. You've made a really cute room out the area. Yeah, that hole in the floor looks a little scary. Your new rail is so nice.
Thank you so much!
We admire your dedication and commitment to restoring this abandoned property! So much better than leaving it as a blight in the landscape.
The loft is looking so good! You did a great job on the floor and d railing!
Thank you!
Your place is looking fantastic, loft is a beautiful job well done !!!
Thanks so much! 😊
The loft is looking great☺
Thanks 👍
Love the music!! Great job on the loft!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks so much!!
I hope you and your whole family can get out of Seattle for good. I was born there and best thing I-ever did was move away.
Make a removable scrap spacer piece to keep the distance the same at the bottom. Always sand your boards before you put them up. It's a lot easier
Good tip!
Good job! Plz. consider painting the railing black to go w/beds and nightstands. Take a pat on the back!
You guys do great work! What a team! Hope you had a great holiday!
Thank you! You too!
The loft looks absolutely amazing. I actually like the barrier railing the way it looks with that natural wood I wouldn't stain it at all
Thank you. We are thinking the same thing.
We have vinyl flooring industrial strength put down and it was snapped together. They did not level the floor right with leveling agent and had to come back and redo part of it after the contract was up now it came up again after the warranty so just make sure your floor is level or it will not work very well.
Beautiful music !!!!!! I would be petrified to sleep in that loft because of the pull-down stairs. Your wife and you are doing a great job. Please don’t cut corners you can get hurt
Hi, I hope all is going well, July 6th, when we saw this.
I am sure you are going to create another way to climb to the loft and get rid of the hole in the floor. Can't wait to see it.
That's the plan!
This is getting very exciting. You’re very close to having your very own home here. And everything you do just enhances the beauty of the building.
Fortunately, you have all the equipment you need to work with, and that has got to be an enormous bonus
Yes! Thank you!
I find the music relaxing
Like you said, a good one day project! Can't wait to see the rail stained and finished!
Like others are saying a small railing around the hole would be good for safety.
Looks good, you'll get there. Plan the work, work the plan.
I am amazed at what you have done! For all these projects a first your off grid home will be beautiful.
Thank you so much!
The flooring and the railings look great
The hog fencing painted black would have worked too for the rails. It would go with the black bed frames
The loft is really shaping up. Great job!
Thanks!
Looks great! You should be very proud! 😊
Thank you! 😄
Agree with others on thst stairs hole in tbe floor. You need to put up spindles around that hole, before so.eone who stays up there forgets and falls through it. Id just match up that railing you just installed, identical to it, around tbe three sides there as a safety measure leaving the entrance open, where the ladder is. Should be sufficient. Don't leave that hole like that, a person could get killed or become paralyzed falling down that hole. Risk factor verses safety, safety wins every time. The railing looks nice, as does the flooring and furnishings and decor. Best wishes.
Stay tuned for upcoming video. We install new stairs and railings
Awesome job Julie you go girl❤
Thanks! 😊
Yeah Julie 🎉
id make a door to cover at night someone can fall through sleepwalking the railings an awsome idea
That loft looks awesome! Your hired! 😂😂
Thank you!
It looks so great1 The music is awesome!
Thank you!☺️
It looks terrific!
Thank you! 😊
I have a soft close hatch door for my loft space.
Excellent video and fantastic music 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much!😊
Oh my word! That loft is so stinkin cute. Great job on the railing, it's so nice! The decor looks perfect in there too. Can't wait to see what's next. So exciting. My almost 14 yr. Old son makes his own music too, very similar to your son. He has a synthesizer and everything lol. Sounds really good!
Thanks so much! 😊
Very nice! Good job.
Thank you very much!
Enjoy all the BATS
Looking great!

A job well done; actually TWO great jobs done!!
PS: Hope the trip is going well. :)
Thanks! 😃
Agree with hole in the floor, but otherwise looks amazing...well done
Thanks.
And the comforters are cute
Great idea, Julie. Love the flooring. The way you made the rails was ingenious. I was wondering, are you planning on a way to cover or block off the hole in the floor of the loft? I can just see if someone is like me, forgetting about it and walking right through it. Yes, I'm a bit of klutz. Anyway, it is a lovely "addition" to your house.
Yes. Keep watching. Future video will show upgraded stairs and railing!
Congratulations Julie, great job on floor and choice of comforts…looks so nice. Ya husband did great job on railing. Think time of a Q &A video. I have so many questions to ask. Will there be railing on ladder hole ? Congratulations to your Daughter on graduating high school. Will she be joining you in Alaska ? When will you be staying permanently I know to many questions. Q&A please.😊
We have been getting a lot of questions that we haven’t been able to answer and we are 100% planning on doing a Q&A video to address as much as we can! We have lots of footage and videos planned for the future, we just have to find a time to film a Q&A video and have all the questions lined up ready to go! Be on the lookout for a post or a future video mentioning when our Q&A will commence! Thanks for watching ❤️
Awesome work the loft looks beautiful. But the whole is a little scary
Thank you. We have plans for a new staircase and railing. 😀
For not having experience with a lot, you are both fast learners!
Thank you!
The loft looks great!😊 Did you put sealer or paint on the railings before you put them up? What are you gonna do with that square hole in the floor? Isn't the stairs for the loft gonna be at the end?
Tell Ethan that he did a superb job with the music. A very talented young man.❤
Jaile done a good job
Great job amazing ❤
Thank you! 😄
Looks great, but the hole needs railings around it and a gate so no one falls.
Agree. We have a plan for a new staircase with railings. 😀
Looks great, you need a clip on microphone.
Beautiful
Thank you 😊
❤😊great job😊
Thank you 🤗
I hope you put a hatch on the hole.
Maybe put the twin beds under the windows in the loft? Any view to wake up to in the loft?🎉
Oops didn't see the door.....
Gotta admit the hole in the floor and the open wall was a little scary to see. The railing looks good and safe. Hope you're also going to add one around the hole in the floor. I can see someone in the middle of the night finding the fast way down stairs 😂
We have a plan for a new staircase and railings. Stay tuned for that in a future video. 😀
You need to put a trap door in the floor before someone steps in the hole.
It looks lovely but you need to make the loft entrance bigger so it can have a loft hatch so there are no unwelcome accidents. From UK X
Thanks for watching! We have plans to build a staircase to the loft. 😀
Personally I would put a rail around that hole before starting to do anything 😅
Yes that is a future project. 😀
Put a rail around the loft hatch just for safety sake please❤❤❤❤
Looks great! I understand using what's on hand to conserve and save, upcycle!
I'm just curious, because of lighting, and I LOVE lighting, did you consider cable "railing" or "glass panel" railing? I would have then made curtains or blinds for "privacy" for the space. Just my opinion. You have to do what works best for you of course! 😊
And could beds have fit on the raised platform part? Or are you making that into storage?
I'm enjoying you sharing your story!!
Thanks for the comment! We were going to just put sheet rock and enclose the area but loved the idea of more light and openness. The pickets were the obvious choice because we already had the materials and we loved the way it looked with the ceiling. A blanket over the railings will give temporary privacy if needed up there. 😀
Such a big improvement, I like Ethan's music. Can you guys please get some microphones, it's a bit difficult for those with older ears to easily hear you both. Thank you.
Thanks you so much. We will work on the microphones. Thank you for your comment. ☺️
Mr. Off Grid in Alaska, very nicely done. Really like how it turned out. So, I know there is a ladder to get up and down, so does it stay done or fold up? Or are you going to do something else? You have accumulated a lot of subscribers real fast, so amazing. Thank you for sharing and God Bless you and your family. 🥰👍👍👍👍👍🐻(🌹🐞🦂🌵)
Thanks for watching. We have plans to build a new staircase to the loft.
I love what you have done with the loft, well done to you both! like many others, I cringe seeing that hole in the middle with nothing around it, probably because health & safety has always been instilled into me at work! I’m wondering if you are going to repoint the access point up to the loft? I love the music thanks Ethan, & I hope that you had a lovely time with your daughter Julie. Take care, with lots of love and hug’s to you all. From Aberdeenshire Scotland ❤🤗xxx
Thanks for watching from Scotland! We have plans to build a new staircase and railings.
@@OffGridInAlaska I knew that you wouldn’t leave it like that! 😂I can’t wait to see it! You two are amazing 🤗❤xxx
👍👍👍
👏
Hello, you are getting there! What are you doing on the other side of the loft? When you were outside cutting the wood you didn’t have to have the music going.
I think a lot of us would have liked/like to see the actual processes of the work you're doing. Either that's not recorded or you edit out all the good stuff. :(
I can’t be the only one who wonders about what the platform is? Are the ceilings higher below? & are those doors leading out to a lil balcony or are they bug windows?
I’m just really curious hahaha but it’s looking fantastic!
The platform covers a big steel support beam. It seems much bigger than it needs to be but we haven't ripped into to find out why. The doors on either end just open to the roof. Very odd and eventually we will probably replace them with windows.
@@OffGridInAlaska ohhh thanks for replying!
Wouldn't it have been easier to cut the wood and then paint or stain in before installing it? It is difficult to paint/stain on the loft level.
But I really like that you recycled wood that was in the shop. Ingenious and the whole Loft Project looks great you two!
Why doesn't the railing go all the way to the top?
It's on the list of to do's. Stay tuned. 😊
There's power right outside your front door why not have Homer Electric hook you up
There's power about 1/2 mile down the road and the cost is $80,000 to connect
Lovely but I would get rid of the rugs.
Well lucky for them you wont ever be asked to visit.
@@AussieTracy I didn't mean I disapproved of the rugs, only that rugs are extra maintenance (vacuuming) so I advocate for people to think about perhaps not having them.
Where is grace?? 😢
Grace is gramma's dog. She lives next door. 😀
