Saving up and trying to do the same here at 22 right now . Trying to figure out financing and I can do the rest with my family and friends . Love the whole setup you got !

Your house is awesome. The safe I would have made it hidden, sink it into the wall and put a bookshelf or mirror to hide the door.

I love the safe where it is. It looks good in the wall, it fills that space perfect.

A spiral staircase or regular staircase coming down from the deck outside would be cool. Then you could have people up on the deck with out going through your bedroom

I think you should still definitely consider in the future moving the wall on the 2nd bedroom/storage unit upstairs to create a closet with a bi-fold door. That way you could add a window and have a great nursery/bedroom). And I have a small two-step folding ladder that I use in the kitchen to reach the upper cabinets (Can store under sink or in the pantry). But I love your overall design.

At 1:32 view of refrigerator it looks like you could move it a few inches to the left, leaving more space between oven/stove/storage bins & refrigerator... Enough to keep a folded 2 or 3 step stool (as suggested by RAS) and helping keep fridge cool.....

I love this build. Going to start our build soon. This is extremely inspirational.

You did a great job on your home. On the kitchen window you could mount a 12” deep stainless shelf outside. The sliding window makes a great pass-through for food and dirty dishes to/from the grilling area.

Awesome. Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Love that SE section of Idaho. I'm over in Boise but was born in Pocatello and spent the first year of my life on a ranch near Arbon Valley, west of Arimo, through the gap if you're familiar with that region. My mother passed a few weeks ago and we drove out to the old ranch home to sprinkle her ashes. Beautiful place, especially this time of year with the gold quaking aspens. I'm envious of your shop house and will be watching more of your build videos. Congratulations.

Love the project, and really appreciate all the details you put in your videos on design, build and budget. For down the road here's a "want" not a "need". I haven't thought about how to do it yet, but if you put a grill on 2nd floor deck or think you will eat or entertain up there much, figure out a way to rig up a dumb waiter that you can haul items up from the kitchen on the outside. Will save a lot of steps up and down carrying food, beverages and dishes. There has to be a way to build one at a reasonable price and not be obtrusive. Enjoy.

Fantastic job. The changes you mentioned all make sense. The master bedroom is really nice. But if I had to live in it with my wife, we would need more closet space.

Wonderful build, I would like a underground storm shelter, access in the work area maybe near the washer/dryer.

Very cool place! When I built my house I under appreciated the need for a large laundry/mud room. I would highly recommend with children you build a large mud room that can accommodate a lot of shoes, clothes, winter gear and cleaning supplies.

Wonderful episode! It would be super easy and super functional to add a built in open shelf under your raised wall cabinets… there are lots of foto examples online. / I know the stair location is not the original one you intended. As your family grows, a future wall between the stairs and the shop might help conserve the house heat in the winter, essentially making the area more conditioned space.

VERY NICE WORK! here on the Big Island of Hawaii it rains often. If your overhang on a high roof is short problems arise when wind forces rain in at an angle striking the building leading to rot. It would be nice to see a couple more feet of overhang on the roof. Not sure if this is a problem where you are. amazing job!!!💯

You did a fantastic job. The lights outside make a nice touch. Hey, the quicker videos are just as interesting. From experience you don't want your grill upstairs. You will always be running back and forth to the fridge, grab a utensil, wash your hands, etc. A bathroom idea, is that it is not too late to still make the entire floor one huge shower pan and change the tile. It does not need to be the pebble/stone, and can be smooth (yet not slippery). A simple duct damper in the ventilation, set on a timer next to the light switch, would solve your heat/cold exposure. Whole room floor draining would eliminate the need to shield water from the shower as well. Unfortunately I learned all about this because my son became handicapped, but it is still a great solution. Nothing like being able to "hose down" the bathroom when your cleaning with hot water. Just epoxy the vanity below the countertop and seal any wall that does not have tile. The stainless counter under the window that Stuart Korte suggested is a great idea. You can always expand and do your patio later. You may want to put in a permanent brick grill area, pizza oven, stationary cooler, whatever, later on and then you will have even more counter space outside. I look forward to watching you get the lean-to up and the outside finished! Keep up the great videos.

First! Love this

How has it worked out having the master access from the shop rather than the downstairs living space? Awesome building and setting!

so the only thing i would change is putting a slider door in the bathroom leading into the closet, just so you don't have to walk all the way back to the bed room and then into the closet to get something you may have forgotten .

No doubt that your kitchen working triangle (stove-sink-fridge) is pretty small, but there are many people with the same thing and they get along just fine.

My advice on paint. Don't go dark anywhere you plan to spend time outside near the house like on the decks. The dark attracts the heat and when the dog days of summer hit you will curse yourself for using a dark color that attracts the heat. Really nice spot you have.

Recently, two large shops were constructed., at two different, but nearby, locations, on the Oregon Coast I couldn't figure out why someone would build a beautiful shop instead of a house. I have now learned what they are: barndominiums. The condos, at the back side of the shop, are facing the beach and ocean.

I would have put infrared heat tubes across both ends of the shop. Keeps everything warm including the floor. It heats all objects not the air like the big blast air heaters.

Very well done.

An amazing job on your place. Putting the master bathroom toilet in an enclosed water closet will help keep you from seeing your spouse in a compromising position after eating at Taco Bell. I like the built in safe, I haven’t seen that before and the upper deck and view are awesome.

Can you make a sped up time lapse and maybe voice over the progress of your build? Maybe like an R&R style video a little bit! Would love to see a fast version of how the house was out together over time! Keep up the awesome content man!

The only thing I would change is the stairs to the master isn’t incorporated into the actual downstairs of the house but other than that it’s a beautiful place

I would rearrange the kitchen. still keep the L shape with the island in the middle, but extend the countertops and move the sink over to allow a lazy Susan corner piece . It appears the corner is just nothing underneath. More storage is always better than not having enough.

Nice work!

Awesome video!

Instead of using those clear bumpers on the cabinet knobs try using black O-rings around the cabinet pulls. Should last longer and be less noticable. Looks great.

First of all GREAT JOB!! I love the whole set up, especially windows, porch and balcony off Master BR. My only suggestion, and I noticed from the beginning, is the LR/Kit should be larger. I agree that the kit itself is enough and functional, but U will be sorry that u didn’t allow for a kit table. Also, your LR space is quite limited. The only reason why I’m even saying anything is for others to take this into consideration if this is to be your main home long term. But this guy will probably eventually build a main house in his property and this will become perfect guest quarters or in-law suite. So this guy will do great!!

Frame a piece of aluminum foil and hang on the fridge right there, will look fine at a glance and be a conversation piece if anyone asks, as long as there's an airgap on the fridge side the foil will interrupt the line of sight and block virtually all of the heat transfer from the stove.

Thank you! I own 2 acres. The house and land appraised for $360,000.

A couple of suggestions for the next one; design your kitchen to allow the refrigerator to be inset into the wall behind it- set the refer on the same wall with the sink, leave space on either side of the sink to work. IN your floor design, figure that "wet wall" to have lavy, tub fill and water closet on that wall- the refer should be on a section of wall just away from all of that and set back into wall- you will gain a few inches right in front of the refer- it's more valuable than gold in a small floor plan kitchen. As well, getting as much of your wet plumbing, hot and cold, into one short section of wall will keep costs lower and detail work confined. Think about leaving access that doesn't require breaking a wall. You may never need it, but when you do, repairing that broken wall will cost as much as the plumbing did. BTW, for a first kitchen, you did really well! The more carefully you "set" your design before you dig the first footing and then stay to your plan, the better you will control "spiraling costs"- think you already have that one! Your calls on the window over the sink and "spreading out a bit" were spot on- but you have to plan that when you lay out. All in all, really sharp, functional Shop House. If you but a propane connection on the porch for a BBQ or small fire pit, be sure to put a temp activated power vent discharge for the carbon monoxide fumes that may accumulate under the porch roof. I'm done- you done good, dude! FWIW, I am a plumber/HVAC guy, and contractor. As well as you did, your "after build" was a great examination of to do or not to do- many folks can't seen to do that. Can't wait to see how the shop finishes out- so get busy! FR

I think you’ve done a great job here over all however your kitchen cabinet issue is a very easy fix your upper cabinets need to be 36” or possibly 42” cabinets Your bathroom is also a fairly easy fix as well if you just expand your shower move the shorter wall over to the other side of the tub and ad a steam shower unit into your shower as well you will love it just be mindful of where it drains into your shower as it will be scalding hot so you don’t want it on your feet I agree with your new idea to put the safe behind the door in your closet as well Again I think you did an awesome job especially on your first build here I’m very impressed

Why would you change the position of the safe? Love the build, great job mate

Maybe a 2 to wider slab Around the house For the water and snow How about a low CFM blower with at least a supply going to the bathroom pulling air from the main space creating a not as cold air intake keeping the humidity stable You would have to add a fresh air make up

Do you have a firewall between the living space and the shop? Are the doors to the Kitchen and Master Bedroom from the shop fire-rated as well? Also, any plans to stop the fumes/smells from the shop getting into the living space, seems you are just 1 door opening away from them going into the living space and I assume the master bedroom and kitchen doors are exterior doors with seals on them then? On the room right after going up the steps, don't know your local codes but here in GA, if you had added the closet you'd need to also add a certain sized window to the outside to be able to use it as a bedroom.

Just proud of ya and if your parents can paint that entire house I can paint my apartment thank you

Would’ve reduced the size of garage and added some of that square footage to your living area. Also would’ve put your bedroom downstairs and living room/kitchen upstairs, Having the kitchen and living space upstairs I think the balcony would be utilized more vs being connected to the bedroom instead.

If you plan to enclose your shower completely, you might want to research it and see if you need to tile the ceiling so you don't have issues from all of the steam. Your place looks great. You can always change what you want at a later time. For now, it's perfect. 👍💙

The cabinets in the kitchen just needs to be lowered. I did the same mistake when I removed the range top vent and added a microwave, my cabinets were to high to access. If I remember correctly, the microwave has to maintain a minimum distance from the stovetop of at least 30". Lower the side cabinet to the same lower level of the microwave and add crown molding or just get longer cabinets. The one sitting right of the sink looks high on its own and should be lowered or replaced as well. The fridge, make an enclosure and shift it to the left and make it flush with the wall... Just my opinion ;)

@deemack341

If you lower the cabinets, you can install shorter, square cabinets ( preferably with glass fronts) on top of the existing upper cabs. That's currently a popular style. It not only provides more storage, but also, you won't have to be concerned with dust accumulating on top of your cabinets.

5:33 I commented in the other video about money, ill copy paste it here. If you're renting it and getting income, get the place refinanced (cash-out refinance) and make sure the rent covers the DSCR at 1.25 (75-80% debt to NOI ratio), you could then grab that equity and use it to expand, fix up the place, even get cars to build or whatever your channel is about, it's also tax-free since debt isn't taxable, and its good debt since its being paid off on its own by renting. It's what the wealthy do to get rich, free money dude
