Alpine Chalet to Chateau Folly in ONE DAY
Vložit

- We bought a 230 year old Alpine Chalet, dismantled it, and today we will rebuild it in ONE DAY in the chateau's gardens to use as a folly and garden shed!
We live in a medieval castle with a huge, derelict estate in southern France. Follow our ambitious garden projects, from vineyards to formal gardens, tropical plants to self-sustainability. Our project is enormous and our enthusiasm contagious. We'd love you to join us.

My husband and I watched this together. We were spellbound! The construction was so amazing. Simple building techniques created a wooden structure that lasted almost 250 years. The climate in the Alps must be perfect for timber, to preserve it without rot or bugs. Astonishing story! Thanks
This is incredible. I love the way Marc thinks.
He is doing a restoration, not a renovation.
Everything blends so well with your historical buildings.
Kudos to his authenticity.
How wonderful to save something so historical instead of letting it be destroyed. You are to be commended.
I lived the smile on Mark’s face. Great hide out for Clement and Juliette.
Wow! I too think the chickens would love to have their own Swiss chalet. 1790...and even older trees. This 'shed' will last far longer than any big box store shed by a long shot. Well done, Marc! It adds even more charm to your lovely château.
Marc looked like a kid who just won the grand prize. Well done.
What a fabulous purchase Mark and love the history. The children will have so much fun playing in. What a find!!!
I always enjoy seeing Mark smile. It warms my heart.❤❤❤
Love it! And now I think Juliette would like another little chalet of her own❤😊
Wow, such a wonderful historic addition to your home, I was captivated watching its reconstruction, thanks for sharing
Marc looks like the cat that got the cream , loving the finish , the chalet looks as though it has been there for years , well done to all that was involved. I think Amy you have lost Marc for good with all his new projects for the garden 😁 . Enjoying all you are doing xxx
Only Marc could discover an antique work of art and repurpose it so brilliantly. Great video ❤
Mark is as pleased as a little boy! It is a wonderful little chalet!
I've never seen Marc so happy.
Oh wow such a gorgeous “cute” piece of history, and now it’s yours fabulous find Marc ❤
Marc does find the most unusual items - the greenhouse and now chalet. Kudos to you!
The craftsmanship is superb. A fabulous addition to your chateau grounds.
That was enormously satisfying to watch, a beautiful building, a crew knowing exactly what to do. Well done, I really enjoy your projects.
That is the coolest thing I've ever seen. Look how clever our ancestors were!
That's an amazing garden shed, with lots of character, charm, and history!
I love that you are always going the extra Mile to add love and character to things instead of just buying something at the Garden Center.
What a truly magnificent structure and what amazing carpenters past and present 👍. Well done all at Chateau de Rosieres, definitely need one for the chickens 👍, one for the cows👍 and certainly one for the children to play in 👍👍.
Thank you Marc for this history lesson, I loved this video and you guys are doing a great job!!
He is so proud of the chalet - you can see in his eyes - loving how the key works - making memories!
Wow, love this from start to finish.👏💪😀😍
What a beautiful addition to your property! I love that not much is new. There is real beauty in things that were built to last more than a lifetime. So much for the idea of getting a new model frequently!!
Mark, I would have loved that log house when I was a little girl. You better get ready your children will want it for a play house. Lol..lol.. Kathy USA 🇺🇸
love the giant size key for the little tiny door of the Mazot - so cute. Like something from a fairy story.😊👍
Marc, it looks like it was always there in that spot. You are so intelligent and I love everything you do. Great video. xx
That was delightful, thank you, Marc & Amy!

Delightful story and great music! Thanks for sharing your fascinating life with us! 🥰
That’s so fun to see how it was constructed!!!
They’re kind of like cross-sections of a log home, with the pegs to hold the boards straight, because they don’t have the weight and rigidity of an entire tree trunk.
Thanks, as always, for sharing your endlessly interesting lives! ♥️♥️♥️
Fantastic! Best vlog yet! I loved watching this little chalet come together!
Mark really loves locks. So happy for you all. Another lifetime of memories for the chalet.
A lock is good if you want to keep your tools.
And if he needs to keep the children out if he has tools that could hurt them in there.
C'est une bonne histoire Marc!
Thank you to all for another amazing addition to the Chateau property.
Enjoyed this very much. ❤
Marc & Amy, what an amazing video! I enjoyed it so much. What a beautiful structure, and so great that Marc wanted to put it on the chateau grounds to save it from being destroyed. Good team effort from the French carpenters, as well.
What a charming chalet. I love buildings that show their age. Mark’s face when he used the key. ❤
Wow! The chalet is wonderful! It is a marvel, the way it was built with no nails or screws, just beautiful pieces that fit together like a glove. I love it.
Wow, this chalet is beautiful. Awesome job, guys. This will last longer than any store bought shed, and it looks so much better, like it was always there. The smile on Mark's fast tells it all.❤
Thank You, Marc.🌻
Your Extraordinary Idea, coming to life,
was a joy to watch.
Wow, amazing, good job folks!
So nice to have Pepper overseeing everything! Sounds like you need a second chalet for the chickens. Thinking outside the box again, who else would think to use this as a gardening shed.
Mark is like a kid with a new toy enjoy Mark it looks amazing now you have one you can make your own
The key was so big and it worked. How absolutely wonderful.
Loved this little chalet so beautiful! 😊
Oh my gosh.. Your family… Such admiration…
Such a fabulous chalet, amazing age! 👍👍
That is an amazing IKEA flat pack Folley you have there I am very impressed!
Totally fascinating.
Absolutely beautiful video. Well done team
Marc I was smiling with you. How gorgeous is that chalet! It went together so well and it looks amazing. It’s so old but so strong. You all did an amazing job and I love it! Well done guys.
What a wonderful, authentic addition to the grounds of the chateau. Marc always goes above and beyond to preserve and enhance their chateau and surrounding land
😊 That is awesome! An antique that will probably last forever!
Extraordinary work of art and craftsmanship!
Enjoy!
✨🌞✨
Marc, you are so entertaining and your dedication to bringing back history is phenomenal! The rebuild of such a structure had me glued to the site....wow! Well done!
Marc is right it is cool. It reminded me of when I was a child and had Lincoln logs to play with. I had forgotten about them. Thanks for the memory.
This is one of my favorite CZcams shows! I always enjoy seeing what you create and its beautifully filmed. Well done!
MAGNIFICENT I love the way Marc comes up with these wonderful surprises.. Truly amazing 🤩
At the beginning I thought that it was a silly idea but by the end was so impressed by the outcome and especially all the thought, enthusiasm and energy that went into this 😊
Just beautiful..love how you find such treasures and have the vision to give them a new useful life. They blend seamlessly into the fabric of the chateau ..like they’ve always been there. .settling down for a few hundred more years.
I think this is brilliant.
I love hearing about what you have all been creating 😊😊😊😊
Wow, that is incredible how old it is and how fastnit goes back together. Just wow.
Marc is like your office /library , nice hang out zone❤
Love it, need more mazots!
I love that chalet.
It would make a great place for the kids to play.
Marc please go fetch the other chalets too.
One of those would be a fun play house for the kids!
So enjoyable. This brought back fond memories of childhood and playing with lincoln logs.
What a wonderful addition!
What a perfectly charming, adorable, little cottage this is! How ingenious to build it that way. Thank you for sharing it with us. Now we all want one. 😄 Blessings to you all.

Incredible is the right word! I can't believe it still has the key! What a charming addition to your beautiful property,
Definitely need to get a folly for the chickens. This is amazing!!! That key is the crowning glory of the whole thing. I have a really big love for old skeleton keys. I love it!!
