*Want to stay at this cabin?* When we aren't staying here, Sunset Ridge is available for guests to spend a night! Check the description or the info card in the top right corner on the video if you're interested!
Clever to make the access wheelchair-friendly.
I think there is a real need for it in the short term rental market
Just sayin’ Carpenters like these guys are joy to watch, what talent,integrity, skill…..they make building an art. A well done video thank you
Wow, thank you!
Phenomenal restoration.
Thanks!
The perfectly built place for serenity and peace of mind.
The porch is icing on the cake !
Same!
Wow! Very nice!
Thank you very much!
That is beautiful and love the location….this is all you need. It’s so peaceful and calming looking. I could definitely live there. Y’all did a fantastic job…..wow!
Thanks!
Loving how it looks on the outside, but would love to see the before and after blueprints.
There are several other videos with before shots. Not much to it. No blue print for either cabin. I like to "wing" it LOL!
What a transformation Steve!! Well done to you and your crew👊🏻
Thanks!
Absolutely outstanding; fine job gentlemen. A successful rebuild at it's finest...
Wow thanks!
Beautiful work!! That deck is genius with an open area and with a covered section.
Thanks so much!

Looks great. Hard work

Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful job
Thank you! 😊
You know it always pains me to see people's hard work and past dreams get torn down, but to see what you did to it in the end is very inspiring. Out with the old and in with the new, I suppose. I hope you enjoy your new place for generations to come. But you know someone in the future will probably be doing the same thing to your hard work in the distant future. We are all just passing through this place anyway. Nice job!
Very true. I have a habit of fixing up "tear downs" Probably done a dozen of them now. Makes me feel good and we do it well enough that the next guy will have something to work with (hopefully) Thanks for watching!
Awesome! I like this place.
Us too! Thanks for watching!
I will own a cabin like this one day, it’s my dream and I will achieve it before I leave this earth!
Go for it!
Very nice work!
thanks!
Great video I enjoyed watching the transformation
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice !
Thanks Mike!
Well done
Thanks!

hermosa cabaña felicitaciones arquitectos
muchas gracias!
very nice
Thanks!
Mysterious cabin in the woods haha :D Great build!
Thanks! quite a story about the lady who lived there before us. I have a couple videos on that too.
Ok. You got me ! Beautiful cabin so I watched ! Great video so I kept watching ! Even went and checked and you post regularly ! Subscribed ! Now. Gotta get caught up and watch each piece ! Lol. Where u at ? ( only video I’ve watched lol ) I’m in Maine. Take care
Hey Tony, welcome aboard! I'm in Northern Illinois but the cabins are in South Eastern Kentucky (we drive allot)
Nice remodel is this in Tennessee?
Thanks! South Eastern Kentucky
This place is perfect one of my dreams to build one.
Go for it!
@Build Life going try. Got get a excavator paid off then try it lol.
@Build Life going try. Got get a excavator paid off then try it lol.
I hear ya, I try not to have more than one piece of equipment financed at a time. Kubota about done (0 interest so no hurry) then I think I'll be getting an excavator myself!
Yeah I hate these big banks or corporations owning me. I been able make some side money with it so it's not to bad. Like you said its zero percent.
nice
Thanks!
It turned out very nice, but then I knew it would from watching your videos. Plenty of skilled craftsman can build a great project, but the ability to add the special touches takes it to the next level. Wood on the poach deck? It almost looked like poplar, but I can't imagine that lasting long. I also thought cedar, but that doesn't seem right either. What did you use?
Thanks Phil, I know you've been here since before we started! We used pressure treated southern yellow pine on the deck and framing but the rails are poplar with a treated top rail. Got poplar out of the woods so price was right if I have to replace a few spindles down the road.
Looks amazing! If J may ask, how big is it?
Thanks, it's about 22x24.
what kind of lumber did you use on the ceiling for all the cabin? -just beautiful.
Thanks, it's pine from a company in Michigan. It has "blue" streaks that is considered an imperfection in it. I really like it too!
My guy tackled that insulation in short sleeves and shorts. haha. No fear.
Us Illinois roofers are not known for our high IQ!
@@buildlifeWell ya’ll did a fine job! That transformation was amazing
Супер!!! Музыка 😊😊😊
Рад, что кому-то нравится!
Ok.keren..salam dari indonesia
Terima Kasih telah menonton!
Some of that ladder placement was a little shaky. :)😊
Always a little shaky on ladders!
The background music is like watching horror movie 🎬. Anwy well done
Thanks!
The music makes me feel like we're about to discover a dead body. Great build!
That was the feeling through most of the build too!
Outstanding!
Thanks!
How long did this project take?
It took us about 6 months we worked about a week out of each month.
The house is truly wonderful: I would say a dream house. The only doubt I have is the mound next to the house: in case of heavy rain, could there be a risk of the house being flooded?
Thanks! There is a swail or a ditch on the uphill side of the house that channels the water around it so we have not had any problems.
@@buildlife Okay, great thing.
how much all said and done?
czcams.com/video/RWeAB7kFFYE/video.html This is a video on the cost!
IS The spray foam flamable isf so at what rate and temp...and is smoke TOXIC,...
It is no more so than other materials. I believe all smoke is toxic to differing degrees. It is substantially better insulation so obviously we don't plan on a fire but it does a way better job reducing emissions from over use of utilities to control climate so it should come out ahead from a footprint stand point.
THIS IS THE LIFE I WONT TO LEAD,AWAY FROM HUMANS
Go for it!
As do I brother!!
Want*
SMART ASS,,,,,,,,,Thanks lol@@Jgs1869
I’m doing just that. After my wife passed I moved to a cabin in Tennessee near the border with North Carolina. I ride a motorcycle and this area around Tellico Plains is a bucket list motorcycle destination.
Creepy music lol but great job!
That was special for you LOL
Only thing I would change is putting a farm behind it a shed and honestly the inside I'm building me a cabin right now about the same size and it's gonna take forever im still doing the framing 😭😭
Enjoy the process! I wish I had enough flat land to have a farm that would be awesome!
@@buildlife I've been working my whole life for this so I saved up and got land instead of a car and all the extra stuff people think they need but I do have a question it's my first time doing this how is the best way to build a roof and how do you keep the bugs and stuff from going in your place
@@rabbit07637 That's probably a bigger question than I can fit in the CZcams comments. Keeping the roof as simple as possible makes it much easier to build. That starts with the floor plan. Rectangles are always the easiest because you won't have a hip or a valley. Material wise metal or asphalt are pretty easy. I went crazy trying to keep bugs out and they get in anyways. Not sure there is much you can do besides treat for them when they do.
🤩🤩👏👏👏👏
Wow thanks! 😃😃😃
You know what similarity is. You kind-a look like bubble dia and you use expressions like your hands movement plus you sound like her
Practically twins and my singing voice is angelic!
Nice job but I would have thought it would’ve been easier and perhaps cheaper to tear it down and rebuild
Allot of people would have. I like to restore old things. Way more character and history.
Hey very good. Please i need the flat these your house. Please
Thanks!
You can't out-give God.
Add a 2 bed1 bath house shed to the back side .So it would be a 3 bed 2 bath cabin.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I got one of those too! That's the Squatch Hollow cabin you'll find in other videos. After lot's of research I found the smaller ones rent better and obviously way less money to build or remodel. That one rents 2-1 compared to our bigger one and it's only $30 a night less! Thanks for watching!
What price dose it have ?
cost to build or to rent?
@@buildlife to build
I purchased the land and the cabin for about $35,000 (would be quite a bit more now) and we probably spent upwards of $55,000 to gut and remodel the cabin. I would say all in we are pretty close to $100,000. If a fella were to do themselves or get friends to help for fun you could bring that number down quite a bit. The heat pump and HVAC system alone was about $12,000 of that.
@@buildlife thank you
Scary music 😂
Scary house!
Can y’all come build my house. I live on a lake in Arkansas
Sounds awesome! I've got a couple more to do on our property then we'll be there!
These guys are building dahmers cabin
Pretty sure he's dead LOL! Would be a good theme for the next one though!
Boom!
🌠💖💗😇💗⭐♥️❤️✨
Thanks!
Музыка депресевная
Excellent build but what's up with the music.
I take requests LOL Hard to make a million folks happy!
Nice video, questionable choice of music!
Glad you enjoyed it?
creepy and unsettling 'music'
Goes well with your profile pic
Looks like a regular house build to me. Not a cabin. But, nice work anyway.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Not real sure what the difference is anyways.
Pero eso no es un capin eso es una casa
Una casa muy pequena LOL!
Cool video but the music was horrible
Thanks?
Liked the video, great transformation, but tell the guy who picks your music, you don't make horror films. Geeze, we almost gave up after 2 minutes because of the lousy music.
Thanks so much for sticking it out. I new you could do it!
This is a renovation, not a build.
Thank you for the clarification.
Haha!
🤥
Looks like remodel not build.
Thanks for sharing
What is with the scary music...
Special for you!
Very good work very bad music
Ill let you pick next time.
Why the creepy azz music? Perhaps some Benny Hill themed tunes would be better.
Next time, just for you!
awful music choice, sorry. cant even watch a minute of it
Thanks for sharing, we'll get it fixed for you right away!
the background music sound like you're watching a low budget horror movie it's extremely annoying to the ear! 😢😢😢
Thanks for sharing. We will do better next time I promise.
