told you we would be giving you a tour of the  Chalet the first house we're renovating here on  

the property and today is that day today is a day  and friends this place hasn't been inhabited since  

since the 20th century that sounds very dramatic  but the last time I believed to my knowledge that  

somebody lived in here it would have been 1999. so  it looks well it's interesting to say the least it  

looks so we're gonna take you in there and show  you we've we've some gems to show you inside yes  

and you did say it was spooky but the first time  I went in there I I it was better than I thought  

it would be yeah Sam was like this isn't that bad  and I was like oh okay that's very optimistic yes  

let's go with that it's interesting for sure  and so yeah we're gonna give you a full tour  

yes of a chalet a place that hasn't been lived  in for over 20 years here we go let's do it

so first things first I'll let you guys know  that I have been in here before you've been in  

here before and I have tidied up uh because I had  to have the roofers measuring things and also my  

electrician so there were spider webs all over  like you would just walk in and they would get  

stuck to your face to your arms so what I did I I  grabbed this squidgy I don't even know what this  

is called in English uh it's for like mopping  floors and like you know just pulling the water  

um so I just went around like this just grabbing  uh taking dominoes there's still a few but like  

this is amazing the first few people who came in  here were not very fortunate and yeah I think they  

were probably a little bit terrified uh but I also  cleaned the the floor area and this is the dirt  

that I collected this is 20 years worth of dirt  that I just uh kind of gathered into the center  

so we can see the floor quite frankly I didn't  know you did that yeah I was working on others  

otherwise it was just it kind of looked like a  horror show so oh yeah this is presentable there  

um but well the first room we're in this could you  call it a foyer I suppose like an entrance room uh  

this would be where you take off your boots maybe  leave your coat uh it used to be an area that was  

actually open it was like a covered Terrace  but there used to be like no door no windows  

anything like that so at one point it was closed  and a door was put in to have additional living  

space but yeah that's kind of what this room is  and what do we have here uh it looks like an old  

wooden frame for for a window old chair some some  wine bottles a sealed well there's no wine left  

in it but it does have the cork in vintage yeah  vintage we've got some green what we call this  

mold what we call it Moss oh we're gonna we're  gonna call it moldy Moss moldy moldy Mossy walls  

uh wooden ceiling wooden like planks an old  Chandelier so yeah that is the the first room  

here the the entrance and I suppose we should  open some windows first why don't we open  

some windows so you can see a bit more like  daylight and we'll take you into the kitchen  

we are armed with flashlights we will be  needing this so and we go to look at John dude

[Music]

let there be light there is light  let's see if we go like this  

oh yes we can see now okay it  would help with the still with  

that Lantern though so now that we've  got light now that we have light and

uh let's come on in to the kitchen so uh right  now it's kind of well it is what it is what can  

I say let's give you the grand tour here we have  one of those old-fashioned Windows to slide food  

from the kitchen to the dining area a detail I  am very keen to keep I think that's super cool  

and then over here we've got the sink uh there's  like a kitchen cabinet cupboards up there drawers  

would there be anything in the drawers look at  that there's Cutlery spider webs too there's  

Cutlery what else we got uh plastic bags yeah  oh I can't open that one let's see what else  

well and also we gonna find there's uh oh wow  lone glasses lone cups that's a nice looking  

cup to be honest yes I I remember that cup  see you yes guys oh spider webs wow [Music]  

salt behind you gonna try it I don't think  so yeah so interesting fact about this house  

I lived in it for a while with my family with my  parents when we first moved here but then it was  

my uncle my aunt and my two cousins who who lived  in here so they were the last um residents of this  

house you could say what else do we have here we  have old furniture that I'm planning to restore  

lawnmower got a lawnmower but I'm super excited  for these chairs I'm going to find um somebody  

who you know does Woodwork and upholstery the  cushions are over here they need some TLC and  

what else we've got another cabinet area like work  station I don't even have the right vocabulary to  

describe a kitchen but that is the kitchen very  nice ceilings dark wood ceilings I'd love for you  

to show the Vintage stove a vintage stove which  we shall also be uh you know integrating into  

the house of course I'd love to actually like get  it working not just as decorative but yeah let's  

use an old-fashioned um we we had we saw one  of those when we were in Nova Scotia remember  

we did at a museum that was no it was in the  in the cabin we stayed at the entire Magoosh  

oh oh okay I'm thinking of somewhere else yeah  remember I do and then okay back here we've got  

a door uh an exit to the outdoors and then back  here this would be like the pantry um and it's  

where we have our water heater our like electric  box things like that this is actually a bathroom  

there's a toilet uh would you like to see  sure take my word for it let me come in  

and Shine the Light the toilet can you see yeah  can you see the toilette there's a sink guys yeah  

and over here this is a toilet toilet yeah yes  so so not so much a pantry more like a utility  

room and uh yeah a toilet okay so that is the  kitchen shall we go inside to the main part we  

should another door another key and we go to  the main living area flip that away [Music]

we're gonna need some light over here  let there be light peoples put two it's  

neat so let's set this one oh I'm so itchy  let's set this here and we'll turn this on  

and let's open let me just open some windows  first so you guys can see what we're getting  

up to in here wow this if you guys could  smell what I could smell you could smell  

if we had smell-o-vision guys there's a  smell-o-vision it'd be quite interesting oh

Tada also I believe we may have a b infestation  

so there's that they're definitely inside they're  living in the roof I can hear them I can see them  

so something to deal with try not to get stung try  not to get stung alrighty friends my my director  

here says I need a light through my face and  another to illuminate what I'm showing you  

that's right so basically I am now in the living  dining area so this right here where you see all  

these boxes it's just pillows blankets towels  boxes with old magazines dating back as far  

as the 80s yeah we're gonna show one of those  magazines yeah we'll find one there's cooking  

pans I found one oh yeah there's a magazine  you found the other day look at this yeah

fashion magazine look we're it's it says the  date here somewhere oh look right here October  

10th 1987. there you this this oh yeah you're  right and then what else do we have here we have  

like old old stoves that used to run on kerosene  so not necessarily something you'd want to be  

using right now I'll show you over here I think  one of the last people that was looking after  

the house oh I'm losing my flashlight uh knew  that there was a leaky roof so they put a whole  

bunch of buckets there on the ground to collect  the water that was coming in I don't know if you  

can see that very well yeah no I mean let me go  here with this one should we go there all right so  

a phone flashlight because our batteries and our  flashlights are actually dying as I was saying one  

of the last people I guess who was looking after  this house knew there was a leaky roof so they  

left a whole bunch of buckets to collect water uh  so this is what has happened to the roof but were  

we not the roofers have been here this will be  replaced we are getting a new roof in so there's  

that by the way that phone is a much better light  is a much better light yeah we have old books oh

look at that oh nice I wonder whose books these  

are if they were my grandmas if  they were my cousins encyclopedia

we do have the Encyclopedia Britannica I believe  an illustrated encyclopedia um old doormats

some not Geo magazines that thankfully survived  the oh they look in good condition the water  

leakage and what else more heaters uh a broken  bed with uh old mattresses I believe will have  

to dispose of and just bags full of uh bed sheets  and duvets that is essential heater that is an  

old heater yes this one's an electric heater  look at that guys a base for a Christmas tree  

you get the vibe it is very very random I suppose  things that just didn't sell things that weren't  

worth taking back to Canada and yeah things that  have just been sitting here for a while so that  

is the main living area and then this is kind  of like uh like a second bedroom or maybe you  

could call it an office or a study because there  is no door it's just like an arched doorway that  

leads to this bedroom when I lived in this house  it was the bedroom that my sisters and I slept in  

um but it would make a nice little office  no a study oh yeah I like it I like the the  

arch that detail and while it will continue  to the master bedroom and the bathroom next  

let there be light peoples okay so we are now  in the main bedroom you could call it a master  

bedroom doesn't have an ensuite or anything  these were different times it's an 80 year  

old house uh but yeah it would be the main room  what is left in here we have a closet we have a  

painting of the Virgin we actually have a lot of  paintings uh just scattered around uh the room  

I don't know who these paintings belong to someone  in the family uh we have machetes we have uh axes  

we have uh this for the horses  I don't know the name in English  

we have maybe some old documents there's  some pictures there are pictures there  

are paintings paintings I should  say beautiful painting by Lugoff

um yeah you know it's just like old family  heirlooms I would imagine things that have  

probably been passed down we have uh some old  suitcases uh covered in in mold and then a  

night table a lamp an ax and a laundry basket  with folded clothes I imagine clean clothes  

somebody did laundry 20 years ago random  collection and check out the views here yes  

actually a lot of progress is being made out  there this they couldn't even see yeah like we  

we actually we cut through that when we first came  here yeah but our gardener our landscaper has been  

busy he's been doing an awesome job awesome  job he's cleared all around the house so the  

roofers will be able to come in and I suppose now  I should take you to the bathroom but first let's  

look at the ceiling we're trying to to salvage  the ceiling as much as we can I'll replace the  

planks that need to go but yeah the idea with  this renovation I want to keep it as a authentic  

as as close to the original as possible in every  regard so that's this room questions do you have  

questions so far let us know in the comments  if you have questions oh I'm sure there are

to the bathroom we go follow along so  

it's a pretty pretty standard bathroom for  Argentina you've got your toilet your bidet  

bathtub with shower got the window there the  little medicine cabinet a sink uh nice do you  

call these Subway tiles I think Subway tiles on  the floor they're in great shape actually yeah  

honestly I thought we were gonna have to do the  bathroom all over but I really like the Retro  

feel it has and like the tiles are in good shape  I wouldn't mind changing the toilet oh yeah sure  

sure like that's a little updated yeah toilets per  day and maybe the the lavatory the the sink yeah  

that can be changed you shower head we're good  yeah but the bathroom isn't going to be like a lot  

of work still gonna bring a plumber to have a look  at everything make sure you know the pipes are all  

good gotta see the situation with the septic tank  and all that but overall I'm pretty happy with  

the bathroom situation and right now it's just  being used as a storage room for old kerosene  

heaters that were used in the hotel not a great  method I know I know but it's what was used at the  

time it would make the rooms smell and the guests  would complain but like that was the way people  

were heating around these parts back in the 90s uh  so yeah that is the bathroom shall we go do some  

concluding thoughts outside yeah so that was the  tour what did you guys think yeah we're curious to  

know I'm thrilled with these new scissors Sam  found some new treasure they're considerably  

better than the ones I've been using I've just  been practicing with some sarsa yeah I can't wait  

to use them on that note like speaking of scissors  I would like to clarify on the channel That We're  

not clearing you can come over we're not clearing  like seven hectares seven hectares of land using  

little snipping scissors like this is something  that we do at the end of the day and it's kind  

of like fun gardening but we do have professionals  with real machines coming in because I feel like a  

lot of people think we're just like snip snipping  across seven hectares and okay admittedly we did  

clear a lot of the land around the house when we  first got here with scissors if we were gonna do  

that we'd be here for 20 years so how long yeah  it would take a while I get what you're saying but  

um yeah I mean the heavy duty stuff is being  taken care of we've created but we've done a
