The Unexpected Transformation of the OLD HOUSE Amazed all the Neighbors, But we didn't Stop There
The fear of losing restful sleep for many decades due to a mortgage forced us to build a house ourselves. We inherited an old dilapidated house and a small piece of land. We painstakingly saved money for 5 years and built a new modern house. Now we have no debts, we are happy and continue to equip our home.
At this stage, we spent about $ 30,000 for the entire house, along with its filling. This cost includes only the cost of materials, since we carried out all construction work independently.
We are a happy young couple Gena and Vita.
We like to build a house with our own hands, so we feel as independent as possible and realize ourselves creatively.
We enjoy making videos and try to make them useful. Therefore, we will develop ourselves and continue to develop this channel.
We have many more construction projects that we will definitely surprise you with.

NEVER would've thought I'd watch a FORTY MINUTE video of someone building their dream home.... couldn't stop watching, DIDN'T fast-forward! GREAT JOB..... and thanks for sharing it with us!
same here lol very good video
We didn't need to, they did so when there was any reason to.
Every time they did something cool, they did something cooler. Until the end. wow
Yup... Me too, watched the whole thing- ads & all! Well done!
Just found this, I've been a builder in America for 35 years, this is absolutely stunning, wish I could find 20 with this couples work ethic and quality of craftsmanship you should be proud.
Yes, it is a beautiful house. But the beautiful family who makes it their home is skilled, creative, hard working, playful and fun. Their parents should be proud as well. Let them be safe during this war. From the pinned post above from the family, I think they are strong willed as well.
I have been in construction for 58 years and love the house design. I have never seen anything like it. All of you interior accents and designs are wonderful. Top Notch! A+ 😎
Just spent the best 40 minutes watching this with my 11 year old, and he would usually have switched off after 5 minutes, but we was totally captivated by this video, impressive craftsmanship by both husband and wife team. We will continue to pray that all will be well with you over in Ukraine, and that your labour over your beautiful home would not be in vain. Best wishes from the UK.
This couple is perfect for each other with their never-ending DIY adventures and they're setting a good example for their kids!
T
And others (I mean not only their kids, but other ppl and other ppl kids too) As humans we tend to look up at ppl who inspires us, or give us the energy, the confidence to do what we wish to do. We are all just big kids ^^
Oh my god yeah
Hope those good people will be safe! It breaks my heart to know it might be destroyed by a crazy bastard!
Awesome how his wife supports and helps, makes for a strong family ... after 2 divorces from "non-supporters', I envy them.
this father literally built a house for his family by hand, crazy respect and hope all is well in ukraine for you
Just update me when zelenski dies
@@Rose-tq7cs The man led the effort and had the construction knowledge to actually build the home. The wife really only shined when it was time to sew seat cushions, make the beds, cook and decorate. The man could have built the home with any laborer who came along.
@@ricksundberg5659 You clearly didn't watch the video.
@@Rose-tq7cs I watched it in its entirety, without this man this would still be a dilapidated building, the woman followed his lead as any woman should when it comes to a construction project. I'm not saying she didn't provide labor, she was just not the lead in the construction, she was the follower, which is appropriate for a woman.
@@ricksundberg5659 I work in construction and rely on my female colleagues every day. I can't believe I have to explain to a man in 2022 that women are just as competent when it comes to construction. Or maybe I should just go take my place in a man's kitchen where I belong lol. That said, I do make delicious cinnamon rolls.
You can feel the love this family put into this home. Well Done!!❤ Prayers for Ukraine 🇺🇦
Prayers, for both sides in this hegemonic US/UN/NATO proxy apocryphal war as the Parasite class offer up the lives of the innocent as they've always done? Ukraine is though a bit of a paradox as it doesn't exist..no ratified borders since the mid 90's so how can Russia invade itself? What we are given in the globalist narrative is the murder of white Christian nationalistic men replaced by the multi cultural influx of N.African & Middle Eastern replacements all by design in the Kalergi plan for Agenda 2030 their New Order of the Ages..Will see the end of all the White Christian Nation States through a zionist/Khazar orchestrated Genocide obfuscated from the ignorant who prefer their bliss & no boat rocking we need to see through their Lies & end their reign before they've ended US !?🤔
You are truly an amazingly special couple. Not just creative, but also loving and caring. I stumbled upon your channel today when I watched several other videos before I got to this one. Then while watching I read this pinned post from 11 months ago. Then I was shocked to learn you are from Ukraine and apparently affected by the air raids. Then I checked your last vids and it looks like you are in a safe area. I'm glad about that. It's just atrocious what's going on there with your country. I hope you stay safe and can continue with your amazing partnership and build many more things! Slava Ukraine!
Give these people the Nobel Prize for peace, effort, happiness, and eternal life.
Live and light
Love🤩🥂
i hope you're not lying

Not only did they build their own home but they also built the furniture in it.. "Simply Amazing" I didn't know this was in the Ukraine? I really hope it survive the war. Peace to you and your family. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽✌🏽 from America 🇱🇾 🇺🇸
Building your on furniture on top of everything is next level
Wow! This was amazing to watch you build this house literally from scratch. I tip my hat to you and your family for taking on this monumental task. Great video!
I pray for the safety of you and your country. You have done an amazing job with the designs of this house. I love the burnt wood effect and the best of all is the bricking decoration of the walls with wood blocks. It is astonishing, is there a name for it? I love it.
Sadly they from Ukraine
The burned wood effect is a Japanese technique called Shou Sugi Ban or Yakisugi...it's hard work, but the effect is beautiful! I have done it on my patio and wood fence panels. Google it! It's art! 💕
시각적으론 좋겠지만 실제로 사는 입장에서는 추천하지 않습니다. 가장 큰 이유는 먼지가 많이 쌓입니다. 두번째는 화재에 엄청 취약 합니다. 쌓인 먼지에 스파크라도 튀게 되면 위험합니다.
Неужели такие семьи существуют?..респект вам!
I absolutely love how you two built this beautiful home. I just hope and pray that it is still standing and flourishing with this crappy war going on in Ukraine.
Let's hope they don't support the Ukraine Nazis.
Would be sad if it was bombed after 5 years of building
@@joseph7105 yeah social media brings us the real news from all over the world
They just posted a new video today showing the completed concrete driveway and sidewalks.
This is a completely bonkers amount of work. Good job guys! And I love how her butt eats up her shorts and leggings 😍
This is unbelievable, yet here I sat watching it all! The whole family was involved and I didn’t expect to laugh while watching someone build their home but you guys are amazing and I hope all is well in the family! ❤
I dont think I wasted my time watching this. I literally gave it my full attention. 40min straight.. It was worth my time. Nice1 guys. 👌🇿🇦
This isn't about building a house, this is about having a dream and making it come true in love and harmony, love you peoples❤️
That guy is so skilled, carpentry, welding, plumbing. amazing!

those kids are blessed with their parents
Remember, 100+ years ago when homes were actually built like this?? It’s sooo nice to see such traditional craftsmanship
I remember
In USA but not in europe,i live in 100y old house its all bricks,this wooden houses are modern new stuff in europe...
Houses are still built like this, in develop countries it’s expensive but in 3rd world countries it’s cheap as, all of my family has brick and concrete houses in South America
Lol nobody build it like that hundred years ago. Definitely not in eastern europe
@ERTUGRUL Gaming oak
I am utterly speechless... if I had 1/10th the ability you have, my god what I could build! I hope your home will be intact when you (and you will) return. Slava Ukraine!
All of the channels like this need to get together and make a village
That'd be awesome
Damn that's underrated comment
like a minecraft server but in real life
You would never ever be able to sleep with all the banging and power saws!
They need to get together to make affordable housing for the rest of the world. I have been house shopping looking for something with lower property taxes that will fit I have not had much luck and cannot move into affordable apartments either because I have too many kids.
I didn't intend to watch the whole video but I couldn't stop!!! What an amazing job with attention to every detail. I love the way you edited it as well. Congrats on this project, it turned out amazing.
Same here, I wanted to have a quick look, ended up watching it from start to end 😅
@@janosnagyj.9540 same here Absolutely a labour of love and a joy to watch . To see all the family joining in is spectacular . The strength of family is amazing .
Same here! I really didn't want to watch it all, but it's irresistibly mesmerizing.
What amazing creativity and skill sets! We in America could learn a lot from this talented couple. Life is not about huge mortgages, swiping credit cards and writing checks. It's about creating a life with your own two hands, and doing it with a partner who is not afraid to break a nail or break a sweat. We have financialized ourselves into a debt bubble, professionalized work to the point that few of us know how to build anything real, and successfully stifle creativity with volumes of building codes & tons of permits & fees. Most Americans couldn't build a decent wooden cabinet if their lives depended on it, let alone an entire house. But our ancestors did, once upon a time. Maybe we made a wrong turn sometime ago. Maybe it's not too late to return to some solid creative human values. Something more like CREATIVE COUPLE...
Speak for yourself. I know many Americans that have the skills and ability to build. I myself added 800 sq ft to my old home and know many ppl that also either built their home or helped others do it. Not our fault you don’t socialize or know these types of ppl. Your hanging around with entitled ppl.
I just found your channel. We are praying for you and your lovely family. A home is only as solid as the foundation you build, and it appears from your videos, that you've build a strong foundation with love, respect, hard work, dedication, and unity. May it last a lifetime. Oh, and the house is awesome too!
This home is absolutely stunning! I like other Americans also hope that this gorgeous home hasn't been damaged nor will ever be because of the fighting in your country. All the best to you and your wonderful family!
It took me 5 years to finally repaint a shelf my wife is been bothering me with
When a man says he will do it, he will do it. There is really no need to remind him every 6 months about doing it!
Hahaha I'm 2 months into something I said I would do but I'll do it next week.. the floor kind of a big project.
🤣🤦
right why rush things if kids grow up and leave the house and we can downsize...
@@danilozh6864 hahaha they are the ones who destroy it too after I make it look nice...
Absolutely amazing. Even better when the entire family is involved with the construction. The memories made building the home together are priceless. Now you family gets to share many more while living in it. Well done! You guys are amazing carpenter's. Some of that woodwork was truly stunning!
From start to finish! the fact that before my husband died, we use too do things like this together all the time. Man how i miss him and those days spent with him doing things like this. anyway dont know how i stumbled across your video but im sure glad i did. just watching you guys doing this yourselves is SO FUQ'N AMAZING! i love Love.
Fantastic couple, I admire people like that a lot, you are a wonderful example that union makes strength, a real couple share everything, they do everything together, congratulations !!! Beautiful and wonderful example !!!
This video made me smile the WHOLE time watching it. It is a beautiful vision of teamwork, hard work, and AMAZING design. I wish I had a partner who loved to do all of what you two have built for you and your family. Praying for your family.
Can we just appreciate the fact that they made this gorgeous house with their kids ❤️❤️❤️wow
Kids didn't want to be homeless any longer
@@tetedepoulet8651 sure sure whatever you think!!
This house was built with love first, a wonderful couple and a happy family, I wish you eternal happiness
This is super impressive, all of it. Well done.
Magnificent project young people I admire your determination to make your house the decor is splendid even has a nice smile the neighbors will be jealous congratulations
That was like living the dream whilst building the dream.
Imagine having a dream lol
@@lullabylmao I am flooded by dreams "Alien." :'D
@@terriblelizardden410 you
the fact that the baby from the beginning is literally a child now 5 years is really a lot
Wow you are smart
obviously a baby after 5 years of life is a child, congrats to this enourmous realization of human life cycle hahaha
Wow, that is an amazing well done home. Prayers are with you all during this unprecedented and unpredictable time. May God be with all who needs Him in Jesus Mighty Name Blood and power Amen and Amen
This is so amazing and encouraging, how you all built everything by hand. Looking forward to building my home one day. Praying for you all during thjs time
If they survived this as a couple then they can overcome anything!
now is just the canoe trip
For this couple, the saying: “playing with the fire” it’s just simply on another level !! Enormous respect for the magnificent skills is due! Incredible, absolutely incredible work.

Amazing great job family may the Lord continue to bless you guys in all you do going and coming and in health in Jesus name Amen.
im, just happy because they didn't lose hope,they were happy every single moment
Why would you HOPE for anything when building a house? All you need is money and a bunch of helpers. Which happened in this video. How do you know about THEIR happiness ALL THE TIME? Where you there?
@@BrigitteGoodman instead of judging just silence 🔕
@@happyborn9409 applies to u too
They're not because it's all planned 🤦♂️
There may be unforseen incidents, but i am glad their whole family moved in together. About 19 years ago my uncle too started a similar project, he unfortunately passed away of cancer before seeing the completion of the house, it was about halfway through... Work got halted and after about 5 years after his passing my aunt finally managed to find the heart to continue and finish the project. It was indeed heartwarming to watch this couple smile through (atleast in the video) this ordeal.
The most impressive thing with all of their LONG amazing projects is their relationship. I cant even do the dishes with my wife and leave still speaking to each other. This is beyond anything I can imagine doing!!
U dont think they had any arguments along the way?
@@gherasimtibi i think they mean like- you can see them smiling and laughing, having fun while building a house, while he would be upset and frowning even doing housework with his partner.
@Herrmann Wachmann what
@Herrmann Wachmann i don’t think google translate is helping you very well there, fellow.
One of the best rebuilt on KZhead. Oh my goodness, just amazing!
Awesome house, husband, beautiful wife and kids. Live you best life man you deserve it.
I have never felt like a bigger slacker than watching this guy work and put this together, nothing short of amazing.
No trabajaba para obtener su dinero??? Construyó la casa en ratos libres???
That is a FIVE YEAR loop.
What an awesome example of a beautiful home and family! 70 years ago, my parents did the same thing in Bay City, Michigan, USA. I grew up knowing they had built it themselves. That created a DIY mentality in me and my siblings. I recently had the opportunity to revisit our home, in Michigan, and it is just as beautiful today as it was 70 years ago! What you have created is so much more than a home! I admire and respect you and your efforts!!
Unfortunately it will they are in Ukraine, so from beautiful smiling people to tears, what a shame after all they achieved with their talents and their family bond.
I'm from Bay City lmao. This is crazy I stumbled across this comment!
I built my own house. Now I have it for sale and I want to make another one. It is a kind of addiction.
hope you re all still safe and your house that you built with love and sweat is intact!
I love it! The amazing memories you guys made during and continue to make with the home. Great energy! Thank You!
What a beautiful home. I hope that this senseless war will end soon and you and your family are free to enjoy it again without fear. All my family’s best wishes from here in Texas.
Hope PUTIN destroys it
What you built is fantastic. He made many simple ideas really special. Fortunately, you have no shortage of wood. The appearance of the burned surface on the surface of the house, in the interior, and in the furniture is not an exaggeration. You designed your home with hard work and good ideas. I wish you and your family can live in this house for a long time.
What can we say?They are just perfect! as each member of the family
I just saw youre movie, i watch movies like this all the time. Have to say this is the first 1 that took my breath away. Youre a great couple and youre skills are amazing. Hope youre all safe. Respect from Belgium !
Talk about building a home you can be proud of! Huge props to you both for designing and building such an incredible home for yourselves and your kids. The attention to detail on each project, as well as your PATIENCE and skill - whew! Very motivating and valuable skills to have.
WOW - feature wall in the living room and the kitchen refresh - both turned out beautifully.
This is the only video that I've seen by you guys but, man, that guy is a real Craftsman! I love his work.
This is one of the most remarkable things I've ever watched in my life! Absolutely beautiful and necessary!!
I stumbled upon your videos going down a KZhead Rabbit Hole, but Im glad I did. You both are amazing and I can feel the love and excitement through your body language. Continued blessings to your family and everything you guys do in life.
Wow! What an awesome video!! And what a beautiful family. Praying that you and your fellow countrymen remain safe during this terrible ordeal.
What a beautiful people! What a fantastic family! Your energy, creativity and good vibes! So inspirational. Great job! Can't wait to watch more. Thank you and God bless you and your family.
I thinks the best part of it is the fact that they were having fun doing all the work. Seems like an amazing family to be a part of. God bless
This family is seriously into DIY. Probably the best way to have nice place to live on a budget.
Fantastic video! It represents a home that is zero or repurposed waste. Mid-Century Modern vibe with a clean no fussy and very Westcoast BC Minimalist vibe. The use of lighting and space is so well thought out for a growing family. I love everything about your house. I loved the feature wall that was Chef's Kiss!
EXCELLENT WORKMANSHIP BOTH HUSBAND AND HIS WIFE
Wait...the house or kid??? Lol 😆 it is a good video
Lo más espectacular, es haber visto crecer durante 5 años a los niños. Una experiencia única para ellos que recordarán y agradecerán siempre a sus padres. 🥰🥰🥰
You two are awesome and your fam looks so happy, keep loving each other so much.
This is the first time I've seen your blog, All I can say is wow, You and your little wife, you are awesome, You make me want to build something beautiful. Thank you so very much for sharing, love you and your wonderful family 👪 ❤.
to me it doesnt seems like a house only, its a motivational story. really loved what you did out there. about 3 years ago i saw a video when this house was in middle of its construction journey. today knowing that i took five years to be built and built from scratch! .... i am literally proud of this great couple. 5 years is a long time. moral of the story: don't ever let your spirit to be broken.
Don't forget all the other people who also contributed..😋

You two are an amazing couple. Mad, crazy building skills and didn't kill each other. Very well done on a beautiful home.
It's a nice change to watch a family build a most beautiful home and actually know what they're doing.
That couple must be architects.

People are wonderful.You're the delight of what can be done, just simply by doing it. You're all an inspiration. God bless, and cheerio's from downunder.
This is real love, when you have someone you want to build your life together with. You guys have an amazing family and there’s so much love, I wish you happy happy lives together :)
I love how happy they were and lighthearted the whole time lol it makes me happy seeing their smile.
What a beautiful home from the wood cladded walls to the stairs the kitchen cabinets it's absolutely gorgeous, they did a fantastic job.
Very very nice teamwork and a good work ethic. Lotta crazy hours. Awesome carpentry skills.
Imagine knowing everything about your house, where every cable is wired, where every pipe goes, where every wooden beam is.... If you want to put up a shelf or do any kind of DIY you know exactly where everything is and how you could do it, i can't imagine doing something like this, the amount of effort and sweat that when into this is incredible and far beyond my capabilities, props to you creative couple!
I was thinking the same, and also how awesome it is to know how to do woodwork, plumbery, electricity, tiling, roofing, soldering....jeez, can you be more talented?

@@redshepardgames my dad
and besides all these skills and hard work, they also take 3 shots from three different angles for each work step. I mean, without a camera it's a lot of work and takes a long time, with a camera it takes even longer.
Few decades ago, some companies (e.g. Michelin) actually helped their employees in building their house. You worked on it with some hired help and minor funds from the company. However people dislike that since it was also the time where paternalism reigned over cities.
This gotta be Poland or Russia, Noone else would have such skills and this will! Great Job guys! 👌👍
bruh In Indonesia we have kuli Jawa, they can build literally everything :>
With that skill and work ethic lm going Poland.

Hope all is better now... I wish you peaceful and all my respect to all of you. Great work, nice videos and lovely family. We support Ukraine with all our hearts.
I can't imagine the thousands of hours you took to make your wonderful home, congratulations to the both of you ❤ 💖 💗 ♥
Some people have great taste, some have amazing creativity, some are incredibly skilled. You guys have it all!
I thought just getting some inspiration for my own cottage building project in Sweden. But ending up in amazement for this lovely family, how skillful they are and how they can work together in harmony and achieve all this.They look happy all together and smile. What a wonderful family.
