  1. NGL, I thought the done up version was going to be shown at the end and that all the pics were of the old family cottage before the work was done ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sweat_smile)

  2. If anyone would like to sell me one of these rundown places for very little money I would make it look so nice!

  3. Thatched roof, AirBnB, the Yanks would love it.

    PS On second thoughts, I don’t think I’d let a Yank have an open fire and a thatched roof without adult supervision.

  4. I love the fireplace with the pots and kettles so much

  5. Beautiful. Looks as though it’s been frozen in time, fair play to him! An excellent portrayal, a true piece of art in this day and age. What a beautiful thing to have in the family ❤️❤️

  6. He did a great job, fair play to him. How long was it a shed? Was there any construction work needed?

  7. Nice job, but your inbox is gonna be full of yanks with famine fantasies wanting to buy it!

  8. Have you insulation on the new roof? I always wonder when I see these cottages if roof insulation is enough to make it liveable

  9. Is your uncle a tree surgeon by any chance? Was talking to one a while ago, mentioned he was going this route with his roof

  10. Fairs fucks, looks good.

    Seen so much butchered renovations on cottages because they want to be cast on grand design and miss the point of low sitting dinky little cottage.

  11. He might consider turning that open fire into a stove.

    Open fires are quaint but they are also a health hazard + the stove at least would have utility for cooking/baking aswell. You can do these things with a open fire but takes significantly more work and equipment.

  12. Is there sound insulation under that corrugated roof, or is your uncle under the impression it doesn’t rain in Ireland
