Great vid and lovely house mate! Out of interest did you have to fit any upright steels in or was it just that one above the basement to support the upstairs floor for building regs? Really interesting to see how it all went together start to finish.
I can only imagine the 'feeling' of knowing you built your home on a site no one else wanted but will now be the envy of everyone that passes by it. Bravo. And, Congratulations on weathering all the mini-storms to completion. It's STUNNING.
As soon as I saw that push mower and those kids playing around it, I was already nervous!! A push mover on an incline surface is a recipe for something to go wrong. I bet he hires professionals on the new project!! @@arcadiagreen150
I'm in admiration - as someone not in construction I think people like yourself that can build their owns houses start to finish are incredible. Beautiful home from a fan in the US!
I'm a builder in Holland, I'm most impressed you pushed through the last months of 'almost finished' with such energy and actually saw it through to absolute completion whilst maintaining those quality levels in the garden and finishing, that takes grit. The feeling when the plastering gets done is always one of the greatest achievements, but usually less than half way to the end due to all the little details. Subscribed and looking forward to your next build!
Hi, this is Vienna from Prima. We are currently seeking potential partners in the construction industry. Allow me to introduce myself: Our company is a reputable manufacturer based in China that provides high-quality building materials. If your upcoming project requires doors, windows, stairs, cabinets, and guardrails, we would be delighted to offer you a quotation. Our prices are exceptionally competitive compared to the local market. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested in exploring this opportunity further.
Epic build! You must be so proud of this accomplishment. Taking an unwanted plot of land and turning it into a beautifully crafted and landscaped homestead. Amazing!
As a fellow tradesmen I can really appreciate the efforts you put in. Your eye for detail, humbleness to admit mistakes, willingness get down and do the gritty work, integrity to go the extra mile and your patience and understanding make you stand out amongst the rest 👍 you sir are a fine builder and a 1st class boss, I would be proud to work under you! Keep it going! Cheers
This was such a magical video to watch. I especially loved how you gave so much thought to literally every detail, right down to multiple designated areas for your kids. Your family are very lucky to have you!! Your home is incredibly beautiful and it's clear so much love got poured into it!
Even the kids got bigger! One of the most beautiful build videos I've watched. I've been obsessed with houses on slopes for a minute and this video was most satisfying
I remember seeing a build video where the couple went from nothing to having like 2 or 3 walking and talking kids. I don't remember the exact vid, but they were making the house out of shipping containers.
When i first saw your lot, i would never have guessed you could get this incredible build, yard, fun space all on it. Absolute PERFECTION. I subscribed. Cant wait for more!!
Since I’ve subscribed I have learnt the correct way to build . I look at what is being built in both Australia and the UK , and they could learn a lot from you. If I was to live in New Zealand, I would get you to build a home for me as I know that I would have peace of mind in knowing the house was done proper. Keep up the good work mate.
haha sorry for laughting , can't belive how care free you are, you literally mowed your foot and you still pushed along, thats admirable, something I needed to see today haha , thank you and sorry again for laughting, you're awesome. Ps. the house turned out AMAZINg. well done!
Dude watching this now in 2024. You got so lucky with when you started this build. The wood and materials would have been so much more. You got all the important things before lockdown.
Just finished 6 days / 14 hour flights over the holidays. Sitting in my den enjoying beer and stumbled on to this video. Watched it in its entirety. Loved it !! Much love and respect to you all in (NZ) from East Coast of Canada.
Congrats on your new house. I - too have seen a house build of my parents. One day, I hope to be able to build my own dream house like you and my parents. The journey is mildly bittersweet but at the end, it's all worth it.
I'm really hoping you got that land for an amazing price!!! nice job, I didn't even build my house, just watched others build and manage it and it was stressful!! I literally chose colours and watched.... guys like you are amazing!!
From a hopeless site to a work of art!! Pray every minute, hour, day, month and years are filled with joy, and blessings for you and your, God bless your family 🙏🕊️
I so thoroughly enjoyed watching this entire process. A lot of effort went into the build as well as the filming and editing process. Thank you so much for sharing this with us
I was taken by that too. This build and EVERYTHING involved was an amazing accomplishment but that you were also disciplined to shoot footage over 4 years IMPRESSIVE ‼️🤩 Thank you for you diligence and efforts Bravo 🥳💪💗
Us Kiwis take our green landscape for granted. It’s only when we travel overseas that we truly appreciate how beautiful New Zealand is compared to so much of the world.
Well done Josh! You took on a challenge that others passed on. Now Pat yourself on the back for the accomplishments and enjoyments for being brave and taking a leap of faith. It’s a beautiful home! ❤
That looks awesome and the tiered layers to make use of the sloped yard looks great too. The only thing I'm wondering about and would be concerned about is the water running down the road and into the driveway and straight into the garage. Maybe you addressed it in another video and it looks like you're not concerned since you were washing with a hose right on the driveway but I would be concerned during a heavy long rain that the garage would flood.
Great video. I know that down here in the south so many people including the council stay away for sloping sites due to the extra work and cost involved. Even though most of the town is built on hill sides. Great to see someone taking up the challenge. Personally I think it would be great if someone could come up with a range of designs to suite sloping sites (I know it's not that easy and there more to it) depending on soil and ground conditions and the slope. But given that so many houses are built on sloping sites and hill sides I personally think in my opinion that a range of standard plans could be a good idea
Very nice walkthrough, I pretty much like the processes specially the transition from design to actual site work. The bits and details also are amazing. I appreciate how much work has been put up to the very completion of your house let alone the effort to document the whole project!
Thanks for taking me on your journey Josh Iappreciate the Mahi and planning and your an exceptional builder. And the editing and drone work sets your videos apart Again thank you
Seeing how such houses are build always amazes me. Especially since i am from a part of the world where houses are built with solid bricks. It always feels like those houses won’t stand longer than a normal human lifespan.
exactly, i always remember those american nursery rhymes about three little pig with different house, here in our country we build our house with bricks and cements..... this house is beautiful don't get me wrong, but one strong wind could have took it....they always looks like they just puzzles pieces and legos lmfao......
The reason most of our houses are built this way is a mixture between the resources we have and have always had (lots of trees) and being designed to withstand earthquakes, rigid with a bit of flex is good. These homes have no trouble in wind, been a few tornadoes in the south west and the worst it does is strips some of the roofing iron off.
Great! It's fantastic that the video showcases the landscaping. The final look is wonderful. I hope you enjoy it with your family. If possible, could you please provide information on the cost of building such a project?
hi, mate that was absolutely a great work, everyone dreamt of having a house of their own, it really motivates us by seeing u do it from the very beginning till the very end. oh believe me, i loved it every minutes and seconds of it, i hope u r doing well mate. i am now a subscriber of yours, love ur work, keep going. Love from Bangladesh. peace ,.,
Great video! 👍I'm in awe of the skills that everyone involved has. Complete mastery and artistry of their crafts. I've always wanted to build my own house. Cheers to many happy years in your new home.
JESUS, i thought that censoring and blurring out when u were mowing was just a skit, but then transitions into the bloody hospital my stomach tangled itself... OOF... Thats one way to start building your dream home; by mowing over your foot XD Great results in the end though! You are as resiliant as can be!
Congratulations to me it’s amazing that I just bought my first landed property few days ago , I feel so happy for myself and my accomplishments so far. I’m so happy I made good decisions about my finances that changed me forever❤️
I can share something that helped me 1. Plan towards it 2. Be Frugal and minimal on spending (don’t buy why you don’t need) 3. Save money towards retirement 4. Save to invest, this is most important because it’s a proven way to get rich. Very important path to financial success
There’s a lot of investing options but my best advice is to get a professional who will guide you into a more profitable investment, that’s exactly what I did.
Wow man, so many things to say. - I wasn't looking to watch a 1 hour house build but was hooked after a few mins. - Probably the best youtube video ive watched in ages. - So many interesting things I didn't know went in to a build, makes me want to make a career change. - Obviously an amazing design, didn't expect it to look so cool at the end. - Great family man building the mini ramp and kids area! Just a bloody rare awesome video. Shot bro
I love how it's been designed as a home and not simply a property, the play area, the office separate from the house, the flow following the environment. Hell even the ramp!
I cannot put in to words how much I love this house. The colors, the materials, the style, the look, the setting. It's all perfect to me. I think you actually built my dream house mate lol
Bro. You’re a machine. Well done. That schedule is impressive. Any other team would have taken twice as long at a minimum. (With the same number of team members) What was the build price? Sorry just saw the price was under $1M. Mate. You’re amazing. Wow
This was a realy cool watch! I hope this is your forever home, its stunning and so amazing you did this pretty much alone how nice for you and your family. Go kiwi hardworking for sure
It’s never easy to navigate the trials and tribulations when building, a smashed foot, Covid lockdown! Well done and heaps of credit for designing and building a beautiful home. I can imagine the feeling of pride and satisfaction, for you, your wife and boys. Such a big job. Great video, thoroughly enjoyed it and it encourages me with the task of tackling my second home build. My kids have all grown up now, so it’ll be smaller, simpler and thoughtful. Thanks so much for sharing your story Josh 😊
What a commendable video and piece of work👏🏻 I'm doing my master's in Construction Management at Massey University, and I found this video incredibly helpful. After watching it, i’m super excited to start working in the industry!
Unreal build man! I was shocked at every turn at just how much you could do with that lot AND that you persevered through all the hardships (Cough* YOUR TOE GETTING CHOPPED FROM THE BEGGINING???*)
Amazing job, Josh. From awkward building site to plan drawings and off to good start, to lockdown nightmare, to full on building mode, to beautiful family home, lovely garden and outdoor play areas. Utilizing every bit of space for functional, comfortable and beautiful life. Very impressive congratulations. Best wishes from Indiana U.S.A.
I need this dudes skincare routine.. long hours, in the elements all day, stressed, physically tough going… and he’s glowing man!!

Note to self, when mowing grass on a hill with a motorized tool, do it downhill. OUCH!!!!
Hope it healed well, man! Mad respect for your work!
Yeah running over a foot with the mower sounds absolutely horrible, one of my worst nightmares actually
There’s only one way to get back up hill tho…
@@PeNGuiNZoMbiEUYA Cut the engine and push it back up the part you just mowed :)
That mower doesn't have a safety lever on the handle.Dont know about there but here in America if you let go of the handle the mower will quit.
@@pipj14u2nv1 it probably did, but it's still turning by itself.
Looks like Franklin’s house from GTA well done on the build🫡🫡
Thank you, I came here to say this!
I was thinking the sameeee
I was waiting for this comment. I cant be the only one who thought this
I can swear that I saw a similar house in Dead Island 2
I came in to find a comment like this!
I'm in admiration - as someone not in construction I think people like yourself that can build their owns houses start to finish are incredible. Beautiful home from a fan in the US!
I'm a builder in Holland, I'm most impressed you pushed through the last months of 'almost finished' with such energy and actually saw it through to absolute completion whilst maintaining those quality levels in the garden and finishing, that takes grit.

The land nobody wants now becomes the home everybody wants.
Well Done!
Iesson learned for me : spirit, persistence, consistency ... thx a lot for this video
Epic build! You must be so proud of this accomplishment. Taking an unwanted plot of land and turning it into a beautifully crafted and landscaped homestead. Amazing!

Totally depends on where you live. In Germany this would likely not even be allowed. Leaving out the different building paradigms
@@stillx1211 Why would it not be allowed in Germany?
im a new builder in Sydney and this vid is super useful / helpful thank you for sharing ... god bless

You’re the man mate. This build looked absolutely difficult and yet you smashed it out of the park. Well done mate 🇬🇧❤️ 🇳🇿
Absolutely love this long form video. Brilliant to see it all come together. What an incredible project and a beautiful home! Brilliant work Mate!
Now that is a great utilization of space on a narrow and sloping site. Well done mate👍😎
Thanks 👍
Inspirational stuff. This was well designed, planned, organised and constructed.
This is quite the masterpiece. Congratulations on building the family home amidst the challenges. Great work
Dude watching this now in 2024. You got so lucky with when you started this build. The wood and materials would have been so much more. You got all the important things before lockdown.

Awesome! Love the skylights, definitely made use of that protected tree
What an absolute masterpiece of a home. It's beautiful.
Well done! You deserve it. Wishing you & your family happy living. KeepSmiling 😊🌺
Great effort mate!!!
I am in the middle of building our family home and it’s inspiring to see this start to finish.
Top job!!
You can do it! Its such a rewarding process
Post a video of a few photos man.
I'm really hoping you got that land for an amazing price!!! nice job, I didn't even build my house, just watched others build and manage it and it was stressful!! I literally chose colours and watched.... guys like you are amazing!!
2:02 That was the straightest hand drawn line i have seen in my life!
That struck me too!
swear down!
From a hopeless site to a work of art!! Pray every minute, hour, day, month and years are filled with joy, and blessings for you and your, God bless your family 🙏🕊️
im watching this in awe and then thinking im going to build an ikea hack in the hallway. You could say same levels of courage....
You deserve all the praise and should be proud given your prowess as a builder!
Love how you showcased the native trees with the skylights. From an inconvenience to making them a feature 🙌🏾
🎉CONGRATULATIONS! What great news for your family.
I so thoroughly enjoyed watching this entire process. A lot of effort went into the build as well as the filming and editing process. Thank you so much for sharing this with us
A man can build something so incredible from scratch, it's marvelous! Keeep going and keep inspiring!
phenomenal, Can only thank you for filming and editing all this for our viewing pleasure. cheers from London England.
You're Welcome, watching over all the old filming was just as rewarding for me. Merry Christmas :)
I was taken by that too. This build and EVERYTHING involved was an amazing accomplishment but that you were also disciplined to shoot footage over 4 years
IMPRESSIVE ‼️🤩
Thank you for you diligence and efforts
Bravo 🥳💪💗
Stunning!!!! Seeing it from start to end was amazing. thank you for sharing with us!!
one of the most underrated things is probably all the green that surrounds the house
Us Kiwis take our green landscape for granted.
It’s only when we travel overseas that we truly appreciate how beautiful New Zealand is compared to so much of the world.
I mean I've done a bunch of DIY on my house , but daaaaaaam, well done sir , Cheers! looks amazing.
You did so good!! great job on overcoming all the initial problem you faced!!
Glad you liked it!!
Well done Josh! You took on a challenge that others passed on.
Now Pat yourself on the back for the accomplishments and enjoyments for being brave and taking a leap of faith.
It’s a beautiful home! ❤
What an amazing job Josh, you have amazing skills to pull this build off. All the best for ‘24.
Thanks, you too!
I fell asleep watching this on a Monday afternoon around 4pm. so peaceful.
That looks awesome and the tiered layers to make use of the sloped yard looks great too. The only thing I'm wondering about and would be concerned about is the water running down the road and into the driveway and straight into the garage. Maybe you addressed it in another video and it looks like you're not concerned since you were washing with a hose right on the driveway but I would be concerned during a heavy long rain that the garage would flood.
Wow crazy build man that must've been wild to do during lockdowns, supply chain blah blah. You are a mad man to do that over again!

Congratulation you set a goal & you accomplished it, with determination & hard work. You should be very proud.
Damn, that is a beautiful house! Great work.
Very nice walkthrough, I pretty much like the processes specially the transition from design to actual site work. The bits and details also are amazing. I appreciate how much work has been put up to the very completion of your house let alone the effort to document the whole project!
This turned out to be a great looking place. Besides the cost of the property, how much does this sort of build set one back?

Also always a good idea to put safety glasses on yourself and the little ones when mowing the lawn. Prevent an eye injury
Cheers
I'll now start appreciating buildings more. The view overlooking the mountains is amazing 🔥
Fire view 🔥
JESUS, i thought that censoring and blurring out when u were mowing was just a skit, but then transitions into the bloody hospital my stomach tangled itself... OOF...
Thats one way to start building your dream home; by mowing over your foot XD
Great results in the end though! You are as resiliant as can be!
Like this construction if beautiful hpuse and the medieval style music.... so much fun watching this video

1. Plan towards it
2. Be Frugal and minimal on spending (don’t buy why you don’t need)

Wow man, so many things to say.
- I wasn't looking to watch a 1 hour house build but was hooked after a few mins.
- Probably the best youtube video ive watched in ages.
- So many interesting things I didn't know went in to a build, makes me want to make a career change.
- Obviously an amazing design, didn't expect it to look so cool at the end.
- Great family man building the mini ramp and kids area!
Just a bloody rare awesome video. Shot bro
Anyone think the thumbnail looks like the house in GTA 5?
Clicked on it because of that
Definitely 😂
Yes! Thats the same thing I said! My son bought a GTA5 house on a country hill that looked just like that in the game.
Innittt
Yep first thought
Hi there it was a hard place to build but u made it beautiful place for u and your family to live.x
Beautiful build mate. Looks awesome.
Thank you kindly
I love how it's been designed as a home and not simply a property, the play area, the office separate from the house, the flow following the environment. Hell even the ramp!
Looks like THE GTA 5 house...
What a beautiful home. Loved seeing this build.
DIY: it's in our DNA
My future dream that i don’t think i can achieve. Awesome video and thank you for sharing the whole process of building a house😌
How in the hell did you manage to hurt yourself like that mate? Seriously!
But loving the video!
Slipped on the hill, mower got jammed up against a tree and my foot slid under
I cannot put in to words how much I love this house. The colors, the materials, the style, the look, the setting. It's all perfect to me. I think you actually built my dream house mate lol
Bro.
You’re a machine.
Well done.
That schedule is impressive. Any other team would have taken twice as long at a minimum. (With the same number of team members)
What was the build price?
Sorry just saw the price was under $1M.
Mate. You’re amazing. Wow
Just when one task seems over, there appears more work to be done and all were accomplished with perfection! Props to you mate! Cheers.
Thats a yuck section bro! Amazing job!!
Yes it was - its deceiving how much room there was once you started clearing it and defining the boundaries - cheers for watching :)
really nice job josh, great acheivement ,something to be very proud of
Thank you.
As you would know, most clients have little concept on what is actually involved in a build.
Your video is very educational.
Only about 10 minutes in and I’m loving the content. Aside from learning about constructing a home, this inspires me more for my dream build!
Hello just a quick question since it is make of wood will it survive a rough storm or wind
I was expecting a pool but the mini ramp is cool too. Great work!
Absolutely beautiful. I 💯 love your home and the precision work that was involved thank you for sharing. Trinidad and Tobago.
This was a realy cool watch! I hope this is your forever home, its stunning and so amazing you did this pretty much alone how nice for you and your family.
Go kiwi hardworking for sure
Nz chch , not sure why it came up in my feed ,just ignore those bad comments they can build there own home then have a opinion😅

"Lockdown nightmare"?! WTF are you talking about? It was 4 weeks and relatively relaxed and saved 20k+ lives in NZ.
