This is one of my favorite episodes. Rarely do we see someone stick to their budget and the repercussions that come with that decision. Itâs a glimpse of real life, extreme talent, and the wisdom of knowing when to walk away. I hope this home is now finished and the owners appreciate the rich history, stunning landscape, and architectural genius of this unique space.
What a brilliant CHARACTER! It doesn't matter what the outcome is, this man lives life the way it should be lived. Loved this episode.
Perfectly illustrates that sometimes, the journey, rather than the destination, is the point. Much praise, Laird!
That guy has so many skills, welder, diver, carpenter, engineer, mechanic, and electrician đź
Iâm almost surprised he didnât make the glass himself.
So many of these builds really test the human spirit proving what we are capable of when chasing a dream with everything Weâve got.
Counsels and planning committees always seems to destroy dreams
For the wealthy
A creative way of recycling an old building that may very well have been torn down.
His friend was there for him -financially speaking-when he needed it the most, added gratitude into the the very fibre of the love already there in an amazingly special home. Putting the sauna in that dip was a brilliant idea.
I do so hope heâll be able to keep it.
Itâs awesome that he could continue the work on the icehouse and do it his way.đ Iâm sure the finished product will be amazing!
I adore and value George Clarke's work with these presentations. What a lovely, enthusiastic fan of historic agricultural & ecclesiastical architecture!
A great example of the renovation of a ruin with historic value, resulting in a delightfully quirky residence for an individual or minimalist couple set admids gorgeous coastal surrounds. Apparently the home was placed for sale in 2018 for 250k and as of today's date is no longer available. If it has new owners, congratulations, I'm a little envious and as for the hard working owner, all the best for future endeavours. Please save another!
On the market in 2021, sounds as if still not fully completed. I think one of its drawbacks is lack of light inside
@@paranihiaanaru4414 can you share the link for the sale. Please
Every time they showed the exterior of the ice house, I almost expected to see Tele-Tubbies running and tumbling down the hill. What a cool structure. Wish we could've seen the finished product. Hats off to Laird.
Loved this
While not nearly as old as this Ice House. Growing up, I remember my grandfather would come to pick me up early in the morning every July4th. The job? Go to the ice house in the next town to pick up a twenty five pound block of ice. This was the late 60's early 70's. It gave me more time to spend with my grandfather. I loved getting to hear his stories about him growing up. The Great Depression, WWII, and his life after the war. I never once saw him angry or cross with anyone.
We would buy a 25 pound block and we'd put it in the trunk of his car on a piece of carpet for the trip back. We'd bring it home and put it in the sanitary sink in the basement. Then it was my job to break out the ice pick and chop it into pieces so we could put all of our drinks on ice for the parade that came down his street. Now, many people would just buy bags of ice from 7/11. But this was actually cheaper than that and it gave me more time to spend listening to his days as a merchant marine on the Atlantic Ocean during the war.
Why so early? We had to be back 7 as the police would shut down his street since it was part of the parade route, which started at 8
I was really looking forward to seeing this completed.
Yes, itâs such an impressive feat
My FAVORITE new CZcams and Yubu channel!!
Wishing I could move outside of Galway Ireland to where my ancestors lived.
Thank you George!
Thatâs a real renaissance man !
Loved man, lovely friend, lovely house â€
Scotland is surely beautiful
Brilliant,to see such dedication and unselfish attitude to restoring.
Canât believe it was never finished he put it on the market last year in the same state we saw it at the end in 2012 đ
Wish I was living there itâs a wow in nature xx
I hope he finishes it one day. I love how he doesnât give up, and even if he doesnât finish it, it was the work he put in, the time, and the masterpiece he created.
@Leslie I just checked, it did sell at some point between 2021 and now.
Omg! I feel so sorry for led. He put all his savings and money into this and he's not going to have anything for it at the end :(
Of course he does. He has a beautiful spot of land. Lovely glass room. His energy has run out unfortunately. He will gather himself and finish it. Seems happy and content with what he has done so far.
Hell yeahhhh. The dream continues!
@@debbieworth2974 Don't forget the part where his friends that will bail him out will buy it
Had to look it up because I was curious. It is still unfinished and on sale for ÂŁ250,000
What a shame he quit. Such a gorgeous spot. I wish him well.
Good for you. No wayyy.
Caviar dreams...tuna fish budget ... very sad..hope someone with deep pockets buy it and finish it up. Good look mate..you tried..got the ball rolling
Just brillant. I think this will be my favorite restoration yet!
My grandad loved on a cottage was a gamekeeper and lived on an estate there was on old icehouse there xx đ
I have been waiting for this, was wondering about that house with the glass barrel at the end that they kept showing. I love the whole build, even the temporary buildings. Not really so fond of the glass; but the stone , grass and moss, even fencing, is so lovely.
1833 Ice House, neat. What a wonderful man. If I'm stuck on a desert island, I want him...he can do everything. Frodo Baggins would love it, I know I do. Would have loved to have seen the completed home.
I love his determination. What a dude, I love the guyx
Here in South Texas, the glass room they're building is a "solar oven." And all of it totally powered by the sun.
I am old enough to remember ice boxes. Took along time to learn refrigerator.
My father never called it a refrigerator, it was always the Ice Box...
You mean opening the door? Hahaha
Oh I see. The word. Yeah. It's big one. Hahaha
This man is a gem, as much as this building too.
I have been obsessed lately on house videos.... i just get carried away each time, because i every house is a story
Yeah...for real....the choice to get the high tech glass was a no brainer, and it came out so good. I'm not surprised that it wasn't finished. Hahahahaha I'm not disappointed. Hahaha I love all his sculptures around. He should have a bigger deck. Nothing like a big deck. Hahaha Get a grill on there and catch a fresh Scottish salmon. Spread mayonnaise on the fillet and dill all over the top. Grill it up. Get a diet coke with ice. Livin' the dream!!!!!!!
oh my! This man reads my mind! I want to live in a home like that! A kind of modern cave/ hobbit hole :D Lovely!!!
George, You're Brilliant...just Brilliant!
It's an absolutely beautiful renovation. I hope it was finished.
@Leslie đ
Watched all this series but this was a magical restoration
V tough built n still the man has to do a lot. He is a man of his dreams. n inspite of so many odds he is managing to constrct it.
After binge watching this series, I've come to the conclusion to not follow the show hosts suggestions. LoL đ
Beautiful attitudes by all! Congratulations!
The committee ( no matter where) always put their two cents.
While a property is abandoned and falling apart(dangerous); they are ignored.
But as soon as someone wants to buy and improve it.
All kind of regulations appears.
Outrageous prices are applied.
Greetings from Puerto Rico đ”đ·
builder and building are an inspiration
Really interesting videos but better with subtitles, thank you. đđ
Very innovative, fresh and totally in synk with environment. Great idea, too bad itâs unfinished.
sync, not sink
Loved the ice house.
Itâs beautiful đ€©.
George brings me joy.
So sad that after all that work he doesn't get to keep it đą
Wow wonderful!
Stunning!!!
I still would like to see how it turned out!! Wish there was a follow up!!
I think it is still fir sale in 2022. Apparently there are other ice houses in Scotland that have been turned into finished homes.
Maybe I missed it but was there a reason he did the expensive glass area first? It is beautiful for sure...but at such an expensive risk it seems it would have been better to wait until the end.
I think it was the primary way to heat the house. Since it is colder climate you would need the heat. I agree with your point. I think the interior could have been finished with another way to heat it and then the glass done when he had the money but I would have tried to get to blend in with both the ice house and landscape.
Probably bc George wanted it and had the idea. It doesn't matter. It worked out.
@@HollywoodCreeper I di not work out. The guy spent so much on the windows he could not afford to finish the inside and ended up selling it.
Absolutely I N C R E D I B L E !Ć
Beautiful đđđ
While the glass space is lovely, the rest of the space is, well, a cave. The light holes add a bit of light but I canât imagine living in such a dark depressing space. I would have put on a glass roof. Or better still,, just build a house on the site. A lot of work for not much of a result Iâd say even thought Lairdâs effort is heroic and deserves to be admired.
What a beautiful place full of wonderful people. Can I move there?
John it's for sale! Unfinished God Bless
I love the ice house.... BRILLIANT!
Ioved it
Minahal nila ito... minahal ko rin ngayon...
Sana mahalin nio rin ang kuento nmin... umaasa...
Aww too bad there weren't any go fund me options around back in 2012.
ohhhh he's a goodlooking Scottish Daddy
Did I miss that Downtown episode of of The Ice House?
Amazing
A beautiful place and what a fun yard to have...great for kids. The glass extension is wonderful, but the structures in the background need to go to expose the wonderful approach view. I see no reason why money would be an issue with the owner.
Hahahaha Yeah. Money is never an issue if you have it. Hahaha How about that as a reason dolt? Haha can I have 25,000 pounds? I'm helping save the planet in NYC.
According to the Wikipedia page for this show, this is.........
S02E10, "Ice House Revisit" Crinan, Argyll and Bute, Scotland 23 August 2012
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Restoration_Man
I had seen the original show but not the REVISIT, thanks for the upload.......
In 2018 it still was not finished beyond what we see here and was up for sale for $250,000 after paying only $6,000 for it....Kind of a bummer for Laird...!!!
Wonder what if Lead still has the Ice house 4 years later?
What is like to know is these people still live in these places
Now that's a man đđ. Atlast someone who twisted the arms of the authorities
the building control stuff is usually just ridiculous and the main reason why those amazing buildings keep rotting away.
this building is on the market at the moment. the interior still unfinished, unfortunately.
Link?
Looks like it is off the market now...
20:11 wow
They should pay Laird for showing how one can preserve an astonishing history whilst making a HOME out of a âpile of rocksâ.
So charming and handsome that George!!!! ~ oh and the house was lovely too! Have you ever been to Santa Fe? I'm the best tour guide if you head to the Southwest!
As beautiful as that glass is I don't think it was worth half the budget. This guy has great DIY skillsand is very thrifty--but even DIY still needs SOME money for materials.
If he's not going to get to live in it, then he could just sell it as is and let the next owner worry about the headaches. His dream was RUINED by extravagant glass. He probably could have used the expensive glass on the top and made the sides of the porch out of something more reasonable. That glass flooring was a waste of money, though cool to look at. I think he's burnt out on this project. Just wondering, why is the ceiling so low in the bedroom?
That was aired many years ago, anyone knows what the update nowadays ?
I would like to know what pegs are used to keep that washing on the line
Kindly show if the built is completed.
Glass heat......so does heat also escape OUTward?...or does the glass only "lose" heat INTO the house.....đ
If this was 2012 are there any current pictures anywhere?
Good question!
@@lizh1988 according to a 2018 article it was for sale for 250k, nice profit for him if he got it!
@@darwhel Wow such an unusual house. I mean I'm sorry if he had to sell it, lots of work in it. But, yes, that's a nice chunk of money. Thanks for the update.
Waiting to see who our next president will be here a day after the election đ
Love from USA đșđž â€
Biden won
No. Democrats stole the election and gave it to Biden, and no one voted for him. No one showed up to his rallies. Everybody voted for Trump.
@@HollywoodCreeper hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, you're goddamn right we stole, you little. Bitch. We'll do it again if you don't fall in line.
So then why are we poppin corks if it ain't done? Thats a first.
Ten years later, I wonder if the building was finished. 2022 is a year of news of oligarchs - greedy men with empty heads and hearts and not a shred of substance spending buckets of cash on frivolous things. And here you have a man of true substance and character and skills unable to finish this historic building. Ironic that this man of substance couldnât find the funds to build, I wonder how it all turned out.
very well said.
how despicable to kick him out of the caravan. WHY? i love this man...he is not taking stupidity (i m referring to the idiotic bureaucrats on planning committee) lying down. HE CUT into the rock to place glass-blown away by his imagination.
historic value doesn't pay the bills.
Well done that man !!! Fucks sake building regs support this fantastic project
looks like it was put up for sale a year ago and still is unfinished.
I see home grown tomatoes under that glass.....but it may be the glass would burn up the tomatoes...đ€·ââïž
Oh Very sad to know he is not going to live in it. :(
Any updates about this house?
Think the show should give him the 40K to finish it, since he was talked into an expensive ass glass setup. Wonder how much the kickback was selling him on the glass, you just don't show up with a working model and pitch a glass like that out the blue.
I feel like they could crowd-fund finishing all the places that run out of money, just 'cause you get so hooked into watching and want to see it done!
@@frithbarbat I know it's for sale unfinished đŁđŁ
Haha
So sad, that he cant see that projekt through, but have to sell it
A shame it would be.
Hopefully he is living in it now.
revisit at 39:00
He hasn't defined the glass extension space into anything which is a shame
He has since put it on the market :/ what a shame
Very disappointing episode.Devastating to not see the interior finished.
This show is an overdose on hobbit architecture////
The best place to make a home is in the ground. There is an awesome video with this old guy who was a back to the land hippy and he made a bundle on a book about it. He came up with the formula. There
There is a woman named Kristan or something that has a channel about people with interesting solutions for coming up with a place to live and her kids are often running around in the videos. I love her videos.
Building Controls Officer. How many other jobs are there best described by the following sentence: "When I grow up, I want to be a professional cunt."
He could've opened up an OF account. He's very DILFy.
