      The only thing I really like is the pool and outside kitchen with a hot tub.
      The lake is pointless because most people I know that have water front property, they never use it.
      The house is way to big for my likes due to maintenance,cleaning,energy bill consumption. My aunt owned a mansion and I only used the kitchen,one bedroom,garage,one bathroom. So right then and there I knew I didn't need a mansion in my life.
      The yard is questionable. I like having land, but I would rather have it as open land to put a shop on or a garden vs walk ways for a nature walk.

    I think the AC system would be a fun project to work out. Surely you don't need 6 units for the entire house - plus, you don't need to replace what's working fine. For the leaking water one, your drain is blocked and it's pretty easy to deal with. They're simpler than they look!

  • @Hiwinders
    @Hiwinders 년 전 +15

    Congrats on the new place.
    I had a salt water pool for years. A few thoughts:
    - The pool equipment does not need to be covered, it is designed to be outside and in the elements
    - The spa may not have a leak. It is probably part of the pool…. Since the spa is higher than the pool it will likely drain back into the pool if the valves that control water flow may not have good seals.
    - I would defiantly shop around for pool people to get the pool back up and running.
    Good luck!

    Greetings from Finland, the home of the sauna. For the stove, I would definitely change the stones. IF you do not know when those have been changed the last time. At least in Finland sauna stones do not cost much, but those make a huge difference on the experience. Old well used stones have lost their thermal properties and might have started to break down. or release all stored heat too quickly, resulting in harsh "löyly"/the steam coming out from the stove when throwing water on the heated stones. Also when you have removed the stones, clean/rinse the stove from any dust, broken bits from the stones, before laying the new stones.
    Otherwise a Finnish style sauna (that you seem to have) is very easy to maintain. Just check if the wooden benches are ok, not moldy or anything underneath. If ok, then just enjoy using the sauna and remember to let it dry out properly after each sauna event. Good ventilation keeps sauna healthy.

    Freddy, congrats on the next step! A few suggestions:
    1) If you are going to convert the 'shed' into a gym you may want to consider a mini-split for heating and cooling.
    2) A septic tank company can pump out your bomb shelter if they can get close enough. If you decide to use the space look into sealing the walls and installing a drainage system around the entrance.
    3) The hardwood floors are beautiful. If you have areas that need help they can be sanded and color matched.
    4) Given the size of the property a good monitored security system with multiple cameras will provide some peace of mind for your family.
    5) May want to consider an intercom system or everyone can have their cell phones with them. :^)

    The bricks in the tree are the remnants of old tree decay management. Cavities in trees used to be blocked up to try and stop decay advancing in the tree, but in fact the practice either does nothing or can make the decay worsen. It looks like the tree is relatively healthy (from the shots seen) as it has continued to grow around the edges of the cavity, and that's why the bricks are now stuck in there. It would be worth getting arboriculturalist to check the tree to see what condition it is is and if there is any likelihood of it failing in the future.

    To keep the mosquitoes at bay definitely fix the pool asap so the water is circulating and they can’t lay eggs in it. Also I would put down some mulch or pine needles in the beds to keep any water from pooling. There are also companies that come out and treat your yard with chemicals to help draw them out in general.

    My God. 😵😵😵 What an absolutely amazing canvas to start with!! Especially with SO much possibility of content collaboration. Actually, just the rebuilding content attraction to see how well the quality is executed with this sort of extraordinary layout. 5 acre waterfront with easy provision of building a true car enthusiasts home facility, a poolside guesthouse AND a separate raised pool kitchen with a hot tub extension above the pool, and an extended dock run with a full sized out-deck. Imagine what that out-deck could look like with a stylized cover and fully lit. Or even run a gas line out to a simulated fire pit. I would go friggin nuts on that place, lol. From what I could see just from this video, it looks to be quite solid and simply needs a good solid extensive makeover. What a great adventure this could be. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

    For the mosquitos, you could get a misting system around the perimeter of your house. I’m from south Texas so I know how it goes. My parents did this with their backyard and what a complete game changer it was. Despite the creek that was behind the house, I never once saw another mosquito when they installed the misting system.

  • @TheAngryFinnishPerson
    @TheAngryFinnishPerson 9 개월 전 +1

    Me, a Finnish person hearing Tavarish call sauna "a swedish sauna" 😢
    The sauna itself seems quite alright, something one would find in most Finnish homes.
    Mine is roughly the same size as yours, also heated with electricity.
    There's also a larger wood burning one at my family lakeside cottage, which has good ventilation so
    a comfortable temperature is somewhere between 80-100 degrees celsius, or 175 to 210 freedom heat units.
    Larger sauna with a wood burning stove and proper ventilation gives "softer" steam whereas
    small electric saunas often have less ideal ventilation and the heat feels harsher.
    200 freedom heat units would be a bit excessive for electric sauna yes. That's about 95 degrees celsius.
    For an electric sauna of that size, maybe 70-80 celsius would be ideal, that's 155 to 175 freedom heat units.
    I highly recommend trying it out, but also might be a good idea to replace the stones beforehand, the most
    common type at least out here is diabase stone, more specifically olivine diabase.
    Very good for heart health, circulation, muscle recovery, mild pain, skin issues and especially since you have
    a lake and a pool quite nearby, it's a very nice feeling to cool down and warm up.
    Might take a short while to get used to, but once you do, it's highly relaxing and beneficial experience.
    The upkeep is quite simple actually, replace the stones maybe once every 100th use or perhaps
    once a year.
    Brush the wooden surfaces thoroughly with diluted natural pine soap and rinse off with water, a few times a year maybe
    depending on the amount of use, give it some time to dry out after each use and i'd recommend using some
    flax linen sauna bench covers underneath the sweaty ass to make it a bit more hygienic.
    Oh and ABSOLUTELY take a quick shower before sauna, always, no exceptions!
    And perhaps give the wood surfaces some treatment with paraffin oil to keep the wood in good condition, if necessary.
    Enjoy the FINNISH sauna. ☺

The shed should have a sofa big t.v games console pool table and then some gym equipment. Also some big as sky lights to get plenty of natural light.

    Pool is super easy to fix, I used to take care of a commercial pool here in town as well as my own. If you want I can tell you are give you a list of chemicals you will need. Saline pools are super easy to care for but when they get full of algae it takes someone that knows how to fix them, basically you have more fresh water from the rain than you have the proper balance.
    The safe is easy to open, I have opened safes that had cyanide capsules in them and would break if you tried to drill or force them open.

    Freddy, those look like Cypress floors. If you take them out, besides the fact that you'd be crazy to do it, people will pay big money for them. So don't let anyone "rip" them out. Remove them carefully so they can be sold and you'll make a significant deposit towards new floors. Or, refinish them and enjoy them. Wood floors create a warmer and more welcoming environment than tile or stone does.

    Congratulations on the new home and seriously looking forward to the new content. A few notes: 1. A pressure washer is your best friend right now. 2. Solar installation asap (the sooner you begin producing your own electricity and net-metering excess power to the grid, the lower your bills and the greater your system equity.) 3. If you're ripping out old central air systems and creating a single functional system, seriously look into a geothermal heat exchange system to passively cool and heat the house (it will save you an absolute fortune meaning more money in your pocket long run and reduce your energy requirements/carbon footprint.) 4. Assess the property's insulation. 5. Maybe keep the signal tower and see if you can get a deal hosting signal equipment/cell company infrastructure. That'll turn to revenue. 6. An electric water heater will save you a bunch on gas especially if you go solar. 7. If you're already planning on doing renovations and you're at the beginning of the process with a property, seriously look at the current floor plan and ask yourself if it presently makes sense or whether a rearrangement would bring benefits. 8. Take your time with furniture, functionality comes first with the space and it's always better to gradually furnish the space in a way that makes sense rather than racing to fill every area just for the sake of getting it done. Consider reaching out to Linus Tech Tips; he's been documenting his recent home retrofit as well. If his vids don't give you ideas, then certainly the insight he could share could save you a lot of time.
