As a Portuguese citizen I'm quite happy to see your work rebuilding this home and land to be your dream place. KEEP THE GOOD WORK!!!

I think everyone who watches your videos will agree with how hard you have both worked getting to the stage where you're at. Having watched all of them I was surprised at how overgrown the garden was when you moved in. It's been great watching your journey and I wish you all the best.

To see your property before and after! What a difference and I must say that I am really, really, really impressed with you two hard workers. It has been extremely interesting to see how you found your wonderful house and your thoughts during the process. Great videos, thanks.

The size of this lot is perfect for two people. Once your renovations are finished, it will keep you busy to achieve a measure of self-sufficiency. Did you say that you only work about 2 days on the renovations? That could be another topic for the question session: how much time do you allot for Reno, garden, research, housework, etc. Do you take proper weekends, breaks, 8 Hour Day?

I bet that property was idyllic in it's heyday. You could almost feel the previous owners. Glad you're making it shine again. Bougainvillea through the opening window was a master shot.

It blows my my how much you have accomplished since then. Congratulations!!!

I found you when you were ripping out. I thought, OMG! 😮 I didn’t see you finding the property. What a jewel! I can now see what a beauty it actually is. You will be so happy to live out your days there in your castle you’ve made just the way you like. That attic area is dreamy. I’d never seen it. Thank you for this adventure back in time.

Seems to me, right off the bat Kylie and you could "see" what you wanted to do with the space. The attic is epic and I can't wait to see what a lovely space you turn it into. Hugs from 🇨🇦

I love the look! The change after clean up.

I'm glad you decided to make the project more fun for you both and Really happy you are no longer in a tent. You have moved inside and it is really comfortable for you. I feel your excitement about your choices now.

You made a wonderful decision to purchase this property. Thank you so much for this series.

Oh my goodness....how beautiful is that house !!! Lovely setting.... beautiful proportions to the house...garden looked impossible to traverse when you initially arrived ...but look at it now ..think you found the perfect property...love it...and luckily for the property you are 'can do' people...just keep doing what you're doing ..💕💞

While the other properties were larger amd made for several hands the houses were not in great shape. Good call and i fall in love with the attic space

Absolutely love this channel. The concept of having some short series is great. It answers and explains your process which I find amazing. I feel like I could follow your lead and purchase property tomorrow with my eyes wide open. Amazing videos. Again I love this channel 😍😍😍

I admire people with a vision and persistence to get there!

You guys have done well and thank you for sharing.

Wow! You've done a huge amount of work just clearing the land, let alone all of the work on the house.

Wow looking back gives you a real perspective on how far you 2 have come. And yes you still have alot to do but your not on the bottom of the mountain looking up any more and now you are peering over the treetops and 1/4 th of the way up. Cant wait to see you summit!!!!

It`s a lot of work to renovate and maintain but it looks good.

Nice to see the old video again, The loft space is great ; hoping you will develop it .

Gave me a little bit of anxiety seeing how it looked back then! 😅 You’ve done an amazing job so far.

OMG what a transformation. It is just amazing what you have achieved. It was so good to see a before again. Just to imagine what it will be like in one year from now. Thank you for sharing your journey with me. 🙏🥰🙏🌺

Wow! Looking back you see how much of the really hard work you've accomplished.

I'm very impressed with your progress in just two years. You have a lot to work with and I am looking forward to witnessing your present and future projects.

The two of you have accomplished an enormous amount of improvement on this place in the two years you've been there, especially since you have your other activities that take up much of your time. But a lot of the major work is now behind you, and hopefully there will be less heavy labor to do and time for more of the fun stuff. Having said that, I think you got some enjoyment from even the hard work, and certainly a lot of satisfaction. Already you can survey your property with a glass of wine in hand, say "We did that", and smile.

I love seeing the excitement you both have for the property, coloured by knowing how much of it you ripped out and dug up to fix issues :) Looking awesome :)

The roof is a complete work of art - I love the 2 finials at each end of the peaks!

Gorgeous isn’t it. Can’t wait till we can redo the roof and sand back all the timber and let it tell it’s story

What an incredible amount you have managed and learned in such a short time. I am glad "enjoying life" is still on your 'to do' list. Can I add a bit a of aged wisdom....the more storage space you have; the more 'tripe' builds up. That attic space....is tremendous. Good luck with it all. xxx

It is nice to see the property before because (funny fact) it really looks like those brazilian properties colonial style you can see in the coutryside of Brazil. It is amazing!

I feel like I need to start watching from the beginning ... its amazing what you guys have accomplished

I find your house style very nice! Great potential

Most impressed with what you've done with your property!!!

Wow, what a transformation. You’ve come a long way. … and oh my! that attic space is to die for. Can’t wait to see what you come up with.

I think that you definitely picked the best property! Thank you for sharing your house hunting process😊👏👏👏

Having watched your journey to this house, I think you have chosen wisely. And as I have been watching for such a long time, I also love this property now. I know the future is beautiful for you there.

thank you for bringing all these videos back!! its been great to re-live these videos you've released! its amazing how far the land has come and how well you've done the property so far!!

I really love watching the two of you and all that you’ve done!❤ keep up the great work 👍🏼

The house looks like in overall very good condition, congratulations!!

Wow, you two have really done a lot of work. It's fun to look back on how it looked at the beginning!

Wow you've done a lot of work from when your first bought the property. Well done to you both. I'm loving all your videos so thank you xx

Loved the tour

This is my favorite property. The land and the house is perfect. Downstairs could be The living room, W/C, kitchen & dining room and the upstairs could be bedrooms & bathrooms rooms 😊. An office area could be either upstairs or downstairs. The master suite, bathroom, closet & lounge area with a desk could be incorporated.

I have loved this series….it was really interested ..I actually watched this last one thinking wow what a lot of work…it looked completely different when you came in from the other gates and saw how over grown the land was …then reminded myself..you have done so much already…looking back makes you see how far you’ve come and this property was definitely right for you both 👏🏻👏🏻❤️jane

Coming in from the garage side is much better. Very nice inside! I would take it as is. Big is not always better!!

Thanks for posting your videos, you are showing how hard it is for someone from a non building background to rebuild a neglected property, top marks to you two , you are showing what can be done , keep up the good work and enjoy , and keep posting

Isn't this the most exciting bit, knowing you love it and dreaming about what you are going to do? So much fun. Sounds like another Aussie!

pure enjoyment watching these well thought out and produced videos. I'm hooked!!

Very nice.

It’s amazing what to people putting their heads together and lots and lots of hardworking days , weeks etc can bring a propriety from that to what it looks today I bet it’s very satisfying when you two look back and realize how much it has change from then to the present day , well done and congrats to both

Beautiful!

What an improvement!!! Congrats!!!

I live excatly 3342km away from you, so I won't be stopping by any time soon in real life, but I love watching your journey. You have come SO far from where you started, and I can't wait to see more and more of the house come to life!

Great perspective, you both have accomplished so much already! Looking forward to see your continued progress! Wishing you the best!

Thanks for sharing your journey. I love your hands on approach.

It's kind of exciting to see the property "raw" before you began to put your own touch on it. I can feel your excitement. It's contagious, I'm smiling for your future!

This video puts your hard work into perspective 👏

I can see why this was a special spot, when compared to all the others in the series on looking for property. And it is great to see how it looked before all the improvements you've made these last years, so congrats!😎🥂👍

That was great. I liked seeing the first views and realizing how much work you have already done.

*Kylie & Guy, Impressive to what you both have achieved at present, from what it looked like when you were viewing the property/house. keep up the good work.*

That roof space is calling out for one of those slanted windows that turn into a balcony!❤️✨

Wow..are you going to have a kitchen! Best one I have seen in all the Portugal vlogs is Nick & Andrea's kitchen, works on all levels, I could cook there easy ;-) First time I have seen all your layout..wonderful space, hope you can salvage some of that gorgeous wood, just love you two ;-)

I was waiting for this one.

Wow! You really saw the beauty of the property below all that overgrown scrub! No one will recognise the land as it is now, from this video!🙌🏼🎉

I think you chose very well. Especially in that you worked out areas for garden, pool etc and totalled it to see the one you put bids on was way too much unnecessary work. Imagine trying to find the time to keep up whilst renovating. Struth. Well done.

You guys gave a house second chance.

I think that the threshing circle would make a lovely craft room/workshop once you have moved into the house. Unless you build a circular greenhouse, but do you really want a greenhouse. I can see why you bought it, who wouldn't buy that house, so much protentional. It oozes character and with the work that you have done you have more than likely doubled its value. You have answered so many questions with just this video. You have to ask though is the effort worth it and before you answer, I say yes without any doubt. You were meant for this house and this house was meant for you. Thanks for posting

We have an even better plan for the threshing circle (in our opinion) but that’s many years away yet. Character and story is definitely the reasons we fell in love with this place, and the overall setting. It was exactly what we were looking for

@@MAKEDOGROW I would love to hear what you are planning to do with the threshing circle but i suppose that if you said it would be a spoiler. So I will just have to wait. Please for not too long as I am a tad old and would like to see it while mortal !! Thanks for the reply❤

Thank you for sharing!

I've been binge watching your videos. Excellent 👍 So interesting to see what you started with and what you have accomplished so far. Keep sharing. Can't wait to see more!

I came on board after you bought this place. Very interesting to see the before. Im fascinated by what has happened since you actually found out what a project you had ahead of you. I thought you might get upstairs into working order before you started on the ground floor. Not to be… I love seeing your process and your progress. However you decide to attack the project.❤️ Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺

Hi guys wow I think the place is amazing just love it I know it's going to take time but u both r enjoying doing it can't wait to c doing other things just love watching u both .x

Very very nice house , congrats and wellcome to Portugal

I can see why this is your place. The land is perfect and the house has great potential. A lovely property.

Congratulations in picking the property that is right for you. I have been where you are ….on Vancouver Island Canada. Temptation is all about to go big but we can be very happy with beautiful vs big. You house is charming!

Wow, well kept secret. Love to see a small terrace opened off the attic studio. The views 😍 up there,... ah the serenity 😉

wow..what a difference...well done

What a huge difference you’ve made from when you first saw your now home. It must be so satisfying to see how far you’ve come. It was interesting to hear all of your plans when you first viewed it to what your plans are now. How things evolve right? Well done you two. Looking forward to seeing all of your future improvements.

I have watched you from the very beginning and am enjoying the recaps and extra, never seen before footage 😅

I have been watching from the start of Eco and Beyond......I absolutely love your videos, but even more I love your house!! We will be looking for a property in around 2 years time, to renovate and then set up a Yoga retreat. We really hope to find a home as beautiful as yours :)

Tnx for your honesty and good tips😉

Just randomly found your channel, loving it 😀

It is a lovely place to live with so much potential . Keep fit ,keep well and live the dream.👋👋❤️❤️🙏🏻😃

HELLO KYLIE & GUY...NICE TO SEE THE UNSEEN FOOTAGE...KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK ON THIS FINCA & PROPERTY...ALL THE BEST 🙏🏻;)

You could open up for like 2-4 people at a time to come and see what you are doing in person, learn from y'all, and help you with the work. As long as they cover their own costs at a minimum it would help you. You could even do like 200-400 euro on top for the training you give. Just an idea to help y'all get the job done. Another one is to work with people in the community to do some of the research, design, and planning on projects for you. Then you two review what was delivered like Master planners. That could save you a lot of time as well, so more time is actually doing the projects

Wow im so excited for you. Im glad you didnt get the other house. This is beautiful. I wouldbe happy to come stay with you in excange for helping you. Wishing you a very happy life in the sunshine x

I love the agent talk: It has some charme=It needs a lot of work!😁 Really nice view of a time since past!

As soon as I saw the realtor fiddling with the lock at the gate, I could tell why you love the property. Having all those mature fruit trees is such a bonus. Being a Floridian, I can say there's nothing like fresh citrus! I think you made a very nice choice, though it would be nice if you had a tad more land you could designate for animals. Still, quite nice.

loved this. very honest and very interesting thank you.

Thanks for sharing.

thanks guys

As I watch this video I am struck by how much you have accomplished in a short time.

from all this viewing this one was best house., i am doing 120 years old house so I wish you well

I'm watching your from South africa with the hope of relocating to Portugal one day, but through God I think my dream will fulfill one day

That is a nice find

Good job!

Very funny🤣🤣🤣. The guy chose the most complicated way to get in and then showed that there was a much easier one.

You have come a long way.
