You have obviously Lost You're Mind. Pitty. Figure on 10k to 50k , for each project. 100+ for some that you've outlined. Been there ,done that!! It'll never be worth what you put into it, You will never have any Time, endless repairs.. Sorry, to say.. I can't even say good luck. Old copper pipes , in Florida. Built in the 60s-70s. All thin wall copper.
He has enough material here to make videos for a lifetime! He should get the Lock Picking Lawyer to open the safe. Then get the guy from Decks, Docks and Gazebos to renovate the dock and Paul LaFrance and the crew from Decked Out for the decks and other outside building, Jenn Nawada can clean up the plants while the rest of the crew from This Old House is working on the house inside. This can go on forever!
The teenager in me thinks this house is awesome. The adult in me just see the headaches of maintenance, the cost and even the time to enjoy it, but if you can afford it and enjoy it, nothing to complain about. Congratulations!
Yup. I can barely keep up with my small house, car projects and a full time job. Maybe if I removed the full time job I’d have time for something like this 😅
You nailed this. My adult self said God lord they saw this sucker coming from a mile away, but my other adult side said he is using it as a business expense and will write it all off as content for his channel.
The only thing I really like is the pool and outside kitchen with a hot tub. The lake is pointless because most people I know that have water front property, they never use it. The house is way to big for my likes due to maintenance,cleaning,energy bill consumption. My aunt owned a mansion and I only used the kitchen,one bedroom,garage,one bathroom. So right then and there I knew I didn't need a mansion in my life. The yard is questionable. I like having land, but I would rather have it as open land to put a shop on or a garden vs walk ways for a nature walk.
I know most folks come to your channel for car content, but I'm looking forward to watching this unfold. Put the gym in the 2nd house near the sauna, use that shed for lawn and maybe pool stuff. Paint the green in the kitchen white and send the cabinet doors out to be refinished white and paint the frames yourself with the same color. Have fun. Take your time. Invest in tools as you work on things.
Eh, the kitchen is least offensive thing he showed. I'd do a new countertop and restain the cabinets rather than repaint them white and make the place look like every other crappy HGTV flip.
Personally i think it looks still very nice. Id focus on the things that are in bad shape first and then think bout adding a fresh layer of different paint in parts of the house like kitchen.
personally painting the cabinets is good cause they don't look really old but that countertop looks like those wood/mdf type ones plus kind of ugly. Honestly everything about the those really just needs a touch up or small bits replaced it does add up though.
I think the AC system would be a fun project to work out. Surely you don't need 6 units for the entire house - plus, you don't need to replace what's working fine. For the leaking water one, your drain is blocked and it's pretty easy to deal with. They're simpler than they look!
Greetings from Finland, the home of the sauna. For the stove, I would definitely change the stones. IF you do not know when those have been changed the last time. At least in Finland sauna stones do not cost much, but those make a huge difference on the experience. Old well used stones have lost their thermal properties and might have started to break down. or release all stored heat too quickly, resulting in harsh "löyly"/the steam coming out from the stove when throwing water on the heated stones. Also when you have removed the stones, clean/rinse the stove from any dust, broken bits from the stones, before laying the new stones. Otherwise a Finnish style sauna (that you seem to have) is very easy to maintain. Just check if the wooden benches are ok, not moldy or anything underneath. If ok, then just enjoy using the sauna and remember to let it dry out properly after each sauna event. Good ventilation keeps sauna healthy.
Never been in a swedish sauna, where it actually is hot enough. Hotel saunas in Sweden have been more of warm rooms than saunas. One in a cabin in shouth Sweden was ok, after I changed the temperature settings and threw enough water on the stove
As someone who recently bought their first house thinking it was 100% move in ready....and immediately realized how many projects I wanted/needed to do, this house looks like a massive undertaking but honestly please show us as much as possible. I would love to see everything you do to this place.
Congrats on the new place. I had a salt water pool for years. A few thoughts: - The pool equipment does not need to be covered, it is designed to be outside and in the elements - The spa may not have a leak. It is probably part of the pool…. Since the spa is higher than the pool it will likely drain back into the pool if the valves that control water flow may not have good seals. - I would defiantly shop around for pool people to get the pool back up and running. Good luck!
It’s crazy to see a guy I followed 4 years ago go from what looked like doing work in his garage to this huge come up with the mansion. Congratulations dude!
He had cash when he started. Sure this isnt his first home after renting a bachelors in a basement. Nice place. Would love to see the numbers. Ohh and plumbers, carpenters and drywallers are not your base of friends. Good luck.
Freddy, congrats on the next step! A few suggestions: 1) If you are going to convert the 'shed' into a gym you may want to consider a mini-split for heating and cooling. 2) A septic tank company can pump out your bomb shelter if they can get close enough. If you decide to use the space look into sealing the walls and installing a drainage system around the entrance. 3) The hardwood floors are beautiful. If you have areas that need help they can be sanded and color matched. 4) Given the size of the property a good monitored security system with multiple cameras will provide some peace of mind for your family. 5) May want to consider an intercom system or everyone can have their cell phones with them. :^)
Intercoms are pretty much a thing of the past now, they've mostly been replaced by tossing an Echo or Google Nest Mini in the rooms you want to talk between. 'Alexa, drop in on basement' and you tell the kids dinner is ready. :) They're dirt cheap and easy to set up and add to.
if you get the bomb shelter pumped out, you may find it has a sump with a pump in it that has failed. They're usually made to handle quite a bit of water ingress so they can be used as a storm shelter without killing the occupants.
@@JohnCarter-vo8ux Cloud assistants are becoming a thing of the past too..well, not really. But i'd opt for a local home assistant, and i'd prefer an intercom system using the local network. It's not so much 'muh privacy!' which is important, but more so just how silly the notion of having a command to shut off a light in the same room as you are, go through your wireless access point, through your router (or both), through the internet, to a cloud DC, back through the internet, through your gateway/AP and to your light switch..versus just having it happen without crossing your gateway.
Remember the goal isn’t to have a house, it’s to have a home. Fill it with your friends and chosen family. Share your success with those you love, and the less fortunate and you will find happiness and purpose. Good Luck to you Freddy, you earned it.
Every time you think something is a bad idea, it elevates this channel to the next level. We’re here to support you through this journey, keep us updated bro!
@@filegumboI wonder how many people got that reference 😂 That stupid special was an hour of my life I'll never get back! Though making fun of him does help a bit..
dont know if someone answered yet, but the tree with the bricks - the bricks were probably put there so long ago that the tree started to grow around them. you got a pretty sweet house, would love to hear more history on it, owners and what the house has been through. Im glad you got it as we can experience it with you and know that you will take good care of it
In regards to the bricks in the tree, It was a common way to cover up cuts and scars in trees in the 60s around when this house was built. It's not actually brick, but tar that's stuffed and petrified then carved. Really cool you got a tree with it!
@@jaynedavis4667 I think that's what the thing that looks like the top of a mostly buried gazebo is. Although it's Florida, so he might just have a mostly buried gazebo. :)
Having done 139 ground up remodels and averaging 4-5 home flips per year with extensive remodeling, you did well. This house is far from being in trouble, it's just dated. $250-300k and this house will be drop dead gorgeous. Obviously, you can go cheaper and do more basic work or much more extravagant, but I would eye in 250-300k.
You're probably pretty spot on if he does about 70% of the work himself. Coming from about 30 renovations a year and now building about 50 houses a year.
@@elmundo1871 yes, i was basing my number on him running the job and subing it out himself. He does that on his channel, so I made an assumption... If he hires a general contractor to do this, it will run over my estimate substantially.
As someone else said, You should double that estimate. For one thing it's his first time doing house stuff, if for another thing he's going to do some tavarish weirdness stuff.
The bricks in the tree are the remnants of old tree decay management. Cavities in trees used to be blocked up to try and stop decay advancing in the tree, but in fact the practice either does nothing or can make the decay worsen. It looks like the tree is relatively healthy (from the shots seen) as it has continued to grow around the edges of the cavity, and that's why the bricks are now stuck in there. It would be worth getting arboriculturalist to check the tree to see what condition it is is and if there is any likelihood of it failing in the future.
I have learned to controlled the mosquito population around my home. My neighbour built me a couple of bat houses a couple years ago. Bats eat their weight in mosquitoes every evening so I am very satisfied with my bat houses. You need to know the specifics that bats prefer in a home so look it up, or ask someone who knows. They are harmless to man and are super cool to watch.
The steel telecom thing in your backyard is a HAM radio antenna- probably has a huge deep concrete base to anchor it in place. The little room next to your editing station with the custom shelves was the "HAM shack" that held all the guy's radios and gear that people collect over the years.
@@davidwilliams3643 The place was originally built in the sixties, and the Cuban missile crisis probably had a bit of an impact on builders back then, so the shelter kind of makes sense. With the lake and the land, he could set himself up nicely. Beautiful spot!
This house has sooooo much potential. The backyard could easily be turned into having a complete vacation vibe. Excited to see what you do with this house. Should totally make a bonsai shed and get your mr.Miyagi going.
The whole time im just hoping and saying to myself “ I wish he gets sponsored by landscaping/construction companies” so we can see the transformation happen faster while we still get quality car related videos at the same time. Eitherway, congrats Freddy! I still remember an old video of yours when you were repairing a car in your parent’s driveway, and seeing how far you made it makes me really happy for you!
Who else saw something crawl from the door of the shed at 16:11?? GREAT HOUSE Tavarish!! Congratulations and I can't wait to see the videos from this life upgrade!!
Having watched you, Hoovie, Cleetus, Offtheranch, HeavyD and a bunch of others since they first started it's very cool to see the progression over the years, amazing to watch in real time. Congrats on the new house, it's going to be amazing!
Tavarish: "If anyone knows how to get rid of mosquitoes, please let me know" Also Tavarish: "Come check out the broken hot tub with a bunch of standing swamp water" 🧐
After nearly dying from malaria working in Africa I have a hatred of mosquitos. You cannot beat them. Citronella candles work well. They are also attracted to stagnant water. The mosquito spray is also effective. Short term enclosed areas use netting and electrocute or blow torch the bstrds. Electrocution tennis rackets are quite good fun. Good luck with the project. We are building our dream home, it has a creek. Mossies love water.
For the mosquitos, you could get a misting system around the perimeter of your house. I’m from south Texas so I know how it goes. My parents did this with their backyard and what a complete game changer it was. Despite the creek that was behind the house, I never once saw another mosquito when they installed the misting system.
The fact that you quickly received more views in one day for this video than for Car Trek means that you need to continue to show what you do at home. It can help many. Ideas in the field of construction often come just by looking.
This is literally one of the most beautiful houses i've ever seen. Definitely deserved been a subscriber since the early days of the channel, you worked so hard to come to this and you deserved every bit of it
I have a sauna pretty similar to yours. I’m Finnish American and it’s a culture thing for us. Dm me if you have questions. Cedar is naturally anti microbial so they require little maintenance. Turn the stove on, wait 20 minutes for it to heat up, fill the bucket and cast some water onto the rocks. Make sure there is an air vent for fresh air circulation
The most ambitious project is an understatement. This is a really cool home and when you get done will be pretty awesome. I used to buy homes and renovate them and can say this is a big project. I can say this will be ten times as much as your Mclaren build. This will be a fun watch for many episodes. Great luck.
Freddy, those look like Cypress floors. If you take them out, besides the fact that you'd be crazy to do it, people will pay big money for them. So don't let anyone "rip" them out. Remove them carefully so they can be sold and you'll make a significant deposit towards new floors. Or, refinish them and enjoy them. Wood floors create a warmer and more welcoming environment than tile or stone does.
I came for the car content and stayed for you. You are such a natural in front of the camera and your personality is awesome. Congratulations on the house and good luck with the renovation. I look forward to watching this project progress.
Freddie, nice place you got there, to get rid of the mosquitos get rid of any standing water, especially the bomb shelter. Get the waterfall on the pool working so you can flush all the mosquito lava into the filters. A couple of drops of detergent will break the surface tension on water surfaces you cannot get rid of, the lava will drown. All in all a lovely project you have there.
I never comment on TH-cam videos but damn this a guy you can say truly deserves it with everything he has done and who is as a person congrats man I was flabbergasted on that house every time you went somewhere else your really happy in the vid can’t wait to see what’s to come for every part of the journey 🎉😊😅
I'm sure the lockpickinglawyer could open the safe in 2 minutes, then do it again just to prove it was not a fluke. House looks really nice! the back yard looks sick, damn. big gz on the house, can't wait to see how it turns out.
LOVE this change! Please make a continuous series! I’m in Florida and this place is unique for sure, but hey…there’s nothing more exciting than seeing another side of wrenching. This speaks to all of us. Thank you!
Congratulations on the new home. Looks great and I look forward to seeing what you do with it. Don't get rid of all the 70's styling as it is making a comeback!
Really happy for you man. That’s a beautiful place 😍 in love with that backyard and dock. It takes a little time, but renovation and making a home your own is so rewarding and the best feeling I’ve ever had. After renting for years and years, I finally bought my first place 2.5 years ago, and have been steadily renovating room by room. That feeling when you finally finish out a room is incredible, just like finishing a project car haha Can’t wait to see what you do with the place man 🙌🏼 11:20 “there’s a slide that.. looks like its just made for insurance claims” Got me wheezing 😂🤣
MOSQUITOS: plant decorative "lemon grass" around the property. its a pretty looking tall grass that has a yellow tint. it does a decent job of repelling flies and mosquitos. i know its a small contribution, just watching and liking the videos, but im glad that, in lump sum, it adds up to you being able to do this for your family. you put a lot of great content out there for us to enjoy, so you should be able to reap the benefits of that work. and so should your fam. its a really cool house, and i cant wait to see all the fun things getting done to it
hey tavarish I'm a little late to the party but if you haven't done interior painting a pro tip is instead of just painting everything all white walls you paint one wall a dark color it makes the space feel larger and gives it a nice look.
Congratulations Freddie. It is a stunning property. Yes, it is dated in some areas. But it looks like the structure is really solid and it is quite beautiful. The refresh will not take a lot. Some updating in the kitchen and bathrooms, new lighting and paint and you are golden. The pool area is fantastic. Five acres on a lake is fantastic. One day you can build your garage with the lifts and not have to pay rent and commute. This is a dream house.
Congratulations on the new home and seriously looking forward to the new content. A few notes: 1. A pressure washer is your best friend right now. 2. Solar installation asap (the sooner you begin producing your own electricity and net-metering excess power to the grid, the lower your bills and the greater your system equity.) 3. If you're ripping out old central air systems and creating a single functional system, seriously look into a geothermal heat exchange system to passively cool and heat the house (it will save you an absolute fortune meaning more money in your pocket long run and reduce your energy requirements/carbon footprint.) 4. Assess the property's insulation. 5. Maybe keep the signal tower and see if you can get a deal hosting signal equipment/cell company infrastructure. That'll turn to revenue. 6. An electric water heater will save you a bunch on gas especially if you go solar. 7. If you're already planning on doing renovations and you're at the beginning of the process with a property, seriously look at the current floor plan and ask yourself if it presently makes sense or whether a rearrangement would bring benefits. 8. Take your time with furniture, functionality comes first with the space and it's always better to gradually furnish the space in a way that makes sense rather than racing to fill every area just for the sake of getting it done. Consider reaching out to Linus Tech Tips; he's been documenting his recent home retrofit as well. If his vids don't give you ideas, then certainly the insight he could share could save you a lot of time.
Super recommend that you put in a boat lift when you redo the dock. They're expensive, but they make owning jetskis, rowboats, speedboats, or whatever way more rewarding when you have a spot you can work on them at and launch them from.
Incredibly happy that I was able to assist you in the process of buying your dream home as your realtor, and I absolutely cannot wait to see what it turns out to be!
I also helped Freddie buy his new house. Why would anyone think he would buy a new house that didn't nee rebuilding? I click on his videos which help him pay for his house. Hammer every day!!!!
I’m sure there is a good bit of your audience that is not excited about this because they only watch videos for cars, but I think this is fantastic! As if you’re in my 30s seeing home renovations is actually really intriguing. And I know once you get it to where you want it to be you’ll have a unparalleled level of satisfaction. And it will house (pun intended) tons of great content even once the house and garage are finished.
With a rectangle pool it’s easiest to get a retractable pool cover that can be walked on it will act as a way to keep debris out and is a good safety aspect for when small children are around, we always installed them on my customers pools ! In Canada outdoor pools all need them 😬
there are plants you can keep that help keep mosquitos away, you can't totally get rid of them, but if you line your pool with these specific plants. it helps keep them down. Citronella Lavender Lemon Balm Marigold Basil Pennyroyal Peppermint Scented Geraniums Rosemary Lemongrass Monarda Ageratum
I'm extremely excited to see this content. This is like an endless pit of content that will keep giving no matter how much you throw at it. Even when you think you're done you'll still have 100 videos you can pull together. Daunting to think of yet fun at the same time.
Major work or not, be proud you can call it yours, and you deserve it (and so much more). You've proven throughout the years how incredibly patient and persistent you are to accomplish all that you want ✨🏆
That tower is a vhf/uhf antenna. Get hold of your local amateur radio chapter before tearing it down. They will likely either relocate it or pay you to maintain it for emergency radio broadcasting. Nice trails. I've been working on mine, but haven't built a bridge over my creek yet. It's too deep and steep to drive an SxS through, so I gotta build either a bridge or culvert.
it makes me so happy to see you get the chance to buy an amazing property like this, because 99 percent of others would just bring it all down, but I'm really looking forward to see what you can make of it and bring it back to life
While none of your projects look easy, and this is no exception, I love a good project house, and can see this one polishing up really nicely! There are a lot of things you can do straight away to de-60fy the look and make it your own. For instance, I'd consider painting the white trim to black or a dark gray, really looks good against the brick and will bring the exterior up to date. Home re-design is one of my passions if you care for some ideas or help, I can share my portfolio.
You have a right to be so excited about this house! It is an amazing house with tons of potential, and the size of the property is great to have, also. Hours and hours of renovation are ahead of you, but as you accomplish things project by project, you will get a real sense of accomplishment and joy! Honestly, the price of this house plus the cost of renovation are staggering for me to grasp, but will bring worlds of enjoyment to you and your family! The very best of luck to you!!
I’d have bought the house for the summer kitchen alone! Such a cool feature. Get rid of the mosquitos by cleaning/treating the pool and spray cedar oil around the perimeter of the yard.
🧱🌳 The blocks in the tree may have been from back in the day when the tree may have been damaged so people put them in there to allow it to grow around them. My grandparent’s house has to trees with concrete in the holes haha. Congratulations on the house and excited to see its transformation!
One of the coolest houses on TH-cam So glad to see how far tavarish has come and how all his hard work is paying off. Can’t wait to see the content of the house and upcoming stuff It’s always cool to see him excited about something new
I was upset when the Abandoned Mansion series ended from Matt Cariker, then Tavarish comes in with this?! This is gonna be such an epic series. Pretty close to my family's home in Florida. That would be so fun to have the resources to be able to work on it at your own pace. Proud of you, Freddie, for putting in the work to earn the financial security to afford a place like this then work on it.
Only just watching this now, after watching the sad video from a couple of months ago. I can't remember if he mentioned anything about the house, but it looks so cool! And I hope he gets to keep doing stuff with it, especially as it seems like he's mega excited about it all.
For the bomb shelter, you can just buy a sump pump from home depot. A nice 2hp unit will make some reasonably quick work of the water in there, and is always something helpful to have around the house.
Congratulations on buying your dream house, you've come a long way and it great to see you hit a big milestone. When i saw you complete the McLaren 675lt i thought that was incredible you were able to fix a wrecked super car that was your dream super car and i hope you continue to grow your channel. Edit: when are we gonna see the SCF the isf powered sc300 ????
the free space on the ceiling is a way to make your house bigger or in a sense feel big. when you have strong contrasting lights off the window and it hits the side wall straight away for example, it will make your mind think that it is small with the dark colour on top making it dull etc etc. see the white colour when you look up into the free space thats a way to get the sun-light to continue and not bounce off the wall and clash with your eyes in other senese to see the houses actual structure to not subconsciously think that its a dull small place.
Seems like a really nice house. I work for a flooring installation company, and I've seen much worse renovation projects on a daily basis. Removal of any of that hardwood (or any sub-floor leveling for that matter) are extremely expensive. Congrats!
Inspiring to see this Freddie, I’ve been around since the white Gallardo and remember seeing it run on the dyno with the twin turbos. You’ve worked so hard for this and deserve all the success you reap, enjoy the house and just like the cars, remember you are the warranty!
Congrats Freddie on the house and starting a whole new TH-cam chapter. Love the idea of the recording studio, and look forward to seeing where you take that aspect of your house. Get those guitars up on stands or hangers though, don’t leave them lying on their headstocks!
Freddy really got absolutley jacked, I remember him being a little chubby about a year ago. Your form looks insane dude. Happy to see you evolve and unfold in that insane rate. Much respect
Congratulations on your new home. My only suggestion would be to create a another TH-cam channel to chronicle you New Home and the trials that you will face getting it to the way you want. Have this channel (Tavarish) as your car channel since everyone is familiar with it. You can do a crossover segments between channels to let casual watchers what is going on with the other channel. I hope for the best in your new challenge and please keep up with the great content. New channel name " Tavarish's Hooptie Home" ?
as a swede im proud you mentioned it. but saunas are mostly associated to finnish people where it originates from :D looks like a house that can be customized pretty good.. looks awesome
I'm feeling all of those emotions again watching this...earlier this year I put everything I had into the house next door to me. I shared the project on my TH-cam channel because because it literally took every penny to my name and every minute of my time. I'm really enjoying this video because you worked so hard for this, only to DO EVEN MORE WORK. I hope everyone watching is as inspired as I am.
@@samirekram you're amazing, thank you so much, that means a lot! I promise I wasn't trying to pick up viewers, just relating to the anxiety of what Tavarish is no-doubt going through. That feeling of "Holy crap, I have to turn this project into money or BAD THINGS will happen to me financially", and my version of that was getting the house rented before I ran out of money. Massive risk but it was so, so rewarding. My renters are amazing people, I doubled the land I'm on and it's paying for itself...the benefits really stack up fast.
Many congratulations Tavarish. Enjoy the property when it is finished and may you experience joy and all the very best that life has to offer in this home with your family.
I grew up down the street from this house and a friend of mine lived here when we were in highschool. Always loved the way this house looked and its great that it's getting fixed up now.
As a big fan, I am looking forward to your house/property renovations! I spent most of my life in the Mobile Bay area, and I can commiserate with you about the climate, and definitely about the occasional hurricane! Such a cool house... so many possibilities... Don't rush into all of the projects; it can burn you out. I would imagine that prioritizing is going to be a challenge. Thanks for sharing with us!
This is awesome, love the fact that he has the balls to be a regular guy and show us his house that needs work rather then some stupid rented palace to make us envy the "good life"
Lmao Tavarash has 6000 sq ft of house and he wants to have a gym in the back of the property? Nobody is ever going out there to do anything except possibly bury someone. Not saying it’s a perfect axe murderers shed…but
Congrats Freddie. That house is huge for your family. Time for your family to increase in size. :) I think a large property with no HOA was a smart move. Good luck with the renovation.
Congrats on your success and the new house! With all that space out back you could build a shop on-site! It sure makes for better balance in my home-life vs. having to drive to/from. Excited to see your renovations, and waiting until Jack gets tired of sanding sheetrock :)
Ngl watching this video made me feel better, I did the same purchase, and went from learning all about cars to learning all about how everything in a house works whether be plumbing, electricity, landscaping, drywall, painting, etc. Just take your time and don't get overwhelmed it'll be worth it once you start seeing your dream house transforming exactly how you want it.
Well deserved after so much hard work. Been watching your for ages and I can’t wait what to see what you do with this house. Would love like a 675LT’ interior inspired interior in the house somewhere like the office or something… Much love from Norway 🇳🇴
Massive congrats on this house purchase Freddy. Hope that you, your wife, your kids and your pets come to love and enjoy the property. Keep lots of mosquito repellent handy, remember to use it often and you should be fine.
Can't wait for the 💣 shelter exploration video. Congrats on the house. It looks like a ton of work but there is definitely huge potential. Good luck with everything and I look forward to watching as much as you want to share. Cheers...
My God. 😵😵😵 What an absolutely amazing canvas to start with!! Especially with SO much possibility of content collaboration. Actually, just the rebuilding content attraction to see how well the quality is executed with this sort of extraordinary layout. 5 acre waterfront with easy provision of building a true car enthusiasts home facility, a poolside guesthouse AND a separate raised pool kitchen with a hot tub extension above the pool, and an extended dock run with a full sized out-deck. Imagine what that out-deck could look like with a stylized cover and fully lit. Or even run a gas line out to a simulated fire pit. I would go friggin nuts on that place, lol. From what I could see just from this video, it looks to be quite solid and simply needs a good solid extensive makeover. What a great adventure this could be. 👍🏻😎👍🏻
Incredible house!! Been watching since early days and I’m so happy to see you succeed! Recently I purchased my first home as well and it’s definitely a process to get everything done! I do home networking, audio, and smart home design and a house like this would be amazing to kit out. Hope you do some of that in your renovation as well! Looking forward to following the process.

You have obviously Lost You're Mind. Pitty. Figure on 10k to 50k , for each project. 100+ for some that you've outlined. Been there ,done that!! It'll never be worth what you put into it, You will never have any Time, endless repairs.. Sorry, to say.. I can't even say good luck. Old copper pipes , in Florida. Built in the 60s-70s. All thin wall copper.
One solid ad from start to finish
I cant believe that your not afraid of the gators.
He has enough material here to make videos for a lifetime! He should get the Lock Picking Lawyer to open the safe. Then get the guy from Decks, Docks and Gazebos to renovate the dock and Paul LaFrance and the crew from Decked Out for the decks and other outside building, Jenn Nawada can clean up the plants while the rest of the crew from This Old House is working on the house inside. This can go on forever!
Lockpicking Lawyer have to see this!
He should bring in @HowToSandAFloor in to redo the hard wood floors, even though he's from outside of the US. Would be totally worth it too.
exactly what i was thinking too, that would be nuts!
Linus from LTT to build networking and cameras.
“That would be an X kid” 😂😂😂
The teenager in me thinks this house is awesome. The adult in me just see the headaches of maintenance, the cost and even the time to enjoy it, but if you can afford it and enjoy it, nothing to complain about. Congratulations!
Yea all I see in this hous is - renovation, more renovation, maintenance, more maintenance and huge energy bills... :D
Yup. I can barely keep up with my small house, car projects and a full time job. Maybe if I removed the full time job I’d have time for something like this 😅
That's why I have a small house.
You nailed this. My adult self said God lord they saw this sucker coming from a mile away, but my other adult side said he is using it as a business expense and will write it all off as content for his channel.
The only thing I really like is the pool and outside kitchen with a hot tub.
The lake is pointless because most people I know that have water front property, they never use it.
The house is way to big for my likes due to maintenance,cleaning,energy bill consumption. My aunt owned a mansion and I only used the kitchen,one bedroom,garage,one bathroom. So right then and there I knew I didn't need a mansion in my life.
The yard is questionable. I like having land, but I would rather have it as open land to put a shop on or a garden vs walk ways for a nature walk.
I know most folks come to your channel for car content, but I'm looking forward to watching this unfold. Put the gym in the 2nd house near the sauna, use that shed for lawn and maybe pool stuff. Paint the green in the kitchen white and send the cabinet doors out to be refinished white and paint the frames yourself with the same color. Have fun. Take your time. Invest in tools as you work on things.
Eh, the kitchen is least offensive thing he showed. I'd do a new countertop and restain the cabinets rather than repaint them white and make the place look like every other crappy HGTV flip.
Personally i think it looks still very nice. Id focus on the things that are in bad shape first and then think bout adding a fresh layer of different paint in parts of the house like kitchen.
No tool should be used that you're not being sponsored by.
personally painting the cabinets is good cause they don't look really old but that countertop looks like those wood/mdf type ones plus kind of ugly. Honestly everything about the those really just needs a touch up or small bits replaced it does add up though.
@@bigelvisthechefrosenberg5494 good call. Get yourself a stack of free tools Tavarish if you're going to be using them in front of millions of viewers
I think the AC system would be a fun project to work out. Surely you don't need 6 units for the entire house - plus, you don't need to replace what's working fine. For the leaking water one, your drain is blocked and it's pretty easy to deal with. They're simpler than they look!
Greetings from Finland, the home of the sauna. For the stove, I would definitely change the stones. IF you do not know when those have been changed the last time. At least in Finland sauna stones do not cost much, but those make a huge difference on the experience. Old well used stones have lost their thermal properties and might have started to break down. or release all stored heat too quickly, resulting in harsh "löyly"/the steam coming out from the stove when throwing water on the heated stones. Also when you have removed the stones, clean/rinse the stove from any dust, broken bits from the stones, before laying the new stones.
Otherwise a Finnish style sauna (that you seem to have) is very easy to maintain. Just check if the wooden benches are ok, not moldy or anything underneath. If ok, then just enjoy using the sauna and remember to let it dry out properly after each sauna event. Good ventilation keeps sauna healthy.
That sauna must be swedish as the bench is that low from the ground.
@@TimoLahti as a swede, this might be a child size sauna. I have only ever been in saunas where the benches go up close to the ceiling
Never been in a swedish sauna, where it actually is hot enough. Hotel saunas in Sweden have been more of warm rooms than saunas. One in a cabin in shouth Sweden was ok, after I changed the temperature settings and threw enough water on the stove
Hotel sauna in Copenhagen didn't have stones. Didn't dare to throw water...
He needs to have a bath room connected to the sauna
As someone who recently bought their first house thinking it was 100% move in ready....and immediately realized how many projects I wanted/needed to do, this house looks like a massive undertaking but honestly please show us as much as possible. I would love to see everything you do to this place.
I bought a house this year thinking the same... I have more projects in mind than money on my wallet
That isn't just a home, it is damn near a resort! Very nice with tons of potential which will keep you busy with creating content for years to come.
Looks like a giant BBC size head ache
@Dave, I read that as cleaning for years to come 🤣
Congrats on the new place.
I had a salt water pool for years. A few thoughts:
- The pool equipment does not need to be covered, it is designed to be outside and in the elements
- The spa may not have a leak. It is probably part of the pool…. Since the spa is higher than the pool it will likely drain back into the pool if the valves that control water flow may not have good seals.
- I would defiantly shop around for pool people to get the pool back up and running.
Good luck!
It’s crazy to see a guy I followed 4 years ago go from what looked like doing work in his garage to this huge come up with the mansion. Congratulations dude!
It's fucking awesome
Freddy should call it.......Tavar-A-Lago 🤣
He had cash when he started. Sure this isnt his first home after renting a bachelors in a basement. Nice place. Would love to see the numbers. Ohh and plumbers, carpenters and drywallers are not your base of friends. Good luck.
@@carlosoruna7174 You seem to know nothing of product placement when it comes to tradesmen,..Cleetus knows a thing or two about that,..
He put in his work and deserves it. I watch it all go down too! All the way from Jalopnik.
Tavarish really comes in with a whole mansion, congrats dude!
Great job my friend 👍
The house has Free Alligator's Yaa
Sooo goood! Better than any of the cars.
This will be SOOO much work like a full time job for a year. He’s got his work cut out for him. I would NEVER do this.
@@bigpotato7804 He's got a couple million of us supporting him. We'll watch the work. It is nuts though.
Freddy, congrats on the next step! A few suggestions:
1) If you are going to convert the 'shed' into a gym you may want to consider a mini-split for heating and cooling.
2) A septic tank company can pump out your bomb shelter if they can get close enough. If you decide to use the space look into sealing the walls and installing a drainage system around the entrance.
3) The hardwood floors are beautiful. If you have areas that need help they can be sanded and color matched.
4) Given the size of the property a good monitored security system with multiple cameras will provide some peace of mind for your family.
5) May want to consider an intercom system or everyone can have their cell phones with them. :^)
Intercoms are pretty much a thing of the past now, they've mostly been replaced by tossing an Echo or Google Nest Mini in the rooms you want to talk between. 'Alexa, drop in on basement' and you tell the kids dinner is ready. :) They're dirt cheap and easy to set up and add to.
if you get the bomb shelter pumped out, you may find it has a sump with a pump in it that has failed. They're usually made to handle quite a bit of water ingress so they can be used as a storm shelter without killing the occupants.
@@JohnCarter-vo8ux Cloud assistants are becoming a thing of the past too..well, not really. But i'd opt for a local home assistant, and i'd prefer an intercom system using the local network. It's not so much 'muh privacy!' which is important, but more so just how silly the notion of having a command to shut off a light in the same room as you are, go through your wireless access point, through your router (or both), through the internet, to a cloud DC, back through the internet, through your gateway/AP and to your light switch..versus just having it happen without crossing your gateway.
I'm getting overwhelmed just watching this. I hope everything works out for you, Freddy and nothing but success comes your way.
Remember the goal isn’t to have a house, it’s to have a home. Fill it with your friends and chosen family. Share your success with those you love, and the less fortunate and you will find happiness and purpose. Good Luck to you Freddy, you earned it.

You should get the lockpicking lawyer to open your safe. Could be a cool collab lol
Lock picking and safe cracking are two very different things. Drilling into a pane of glass isn't something lock pickers usually have to worry about.
@@NoMoreBsPleaseyou take all the fun out of life you know that? But im sure thats not the first time youve heard that.

@@filegumboI wonder how many people got that reference 😂 That stupid special was an hour of my life I'll never get back! Though making fun of him does help a bit..
dont know if someone answered yet, but the tree with the bricks - the bricks were probably put there so long ago that the tree started to grow around them. you got a pretty sweet house, would love to hear more history on it, owners and what the house has been through. Im glad you got it as we can experience it with you and know that you will take good care of it
@edbolian we need addresswiki so we can see the story of houses like this.
In regards to the bricks in the tree, It was a common way to cover up cuts and scars in trees in the 60s around when this house was built. It's not actually brick, but tar that's stuffed and petrified then carved. Really cool you got a tree with it!
I thought it might be an air outlet for the bunker.
@@jaynedavis4667 I think that's what the thing that looks like the top of a mostly buried gazebo is. Although it's Florida, so he might just have a mostly buried gazebo. :)
Having done 139 ground up remodels and averaging 4-5 home flips per year with extensive remodeling, you did well.
This house is far from being in trouble, it's just dated. $250-300k and this house will be drop dead gorgeous. Obviously, you can go cheaper and do more basic work or much more extravagant, but I would eye in 250-300k.
You're probably pretty spot on if he does about 70% of the work himself. Coming from about 30 renovations a year and now building about 50 houses a year.
Yes rebuild asap while the prices for everything is still high....dont worry i doubt labor and materials will be lower in a couple years
Double that. I bet he comes in at 500 to 600K
@@elmundo1871 yes, i was basing my number on him running the job and subing it out himself. He does that on his channel, so I made an assumption... If he hires a general contractor to do this, it will run over my estimate substantially.
As someone else said, You should double that estimate. For one thing it's his first time doing house stuff, if for another thing he's going to do some tavarish weirdness stuff.
The bricks in the tree are the remnants of old tree decay management. Cavities in trees used to be blocked up to try and stop decay advancing in the tree, but in fact the practice either does nothing or can make the decay worsen. It looks like the tree is relatively healthy (from the shots seen) as it has continued to grow around the edges of the cavity, and that's why the bricks are now stuck in there. It would be worth getting arboriculturalist to check the tree to see what condition it is is and if there is any likelihood of it failing in the future.
Agreed.
I have learned to controlled the mosquito population around my home. My neighbour built me a couple of bat houses a couple years ago. Bats eat their weight in mosquitoes every evening so I am very satisfied with my bat houses. You need to know the specifics that bats prefer in a home so look it up, or ask someone who knows. They are harmless to man and are super cool to watch.
The steel telecom thing in your backyard is a HAM radio antenna- probably has a huge deep concrete base to anchor it in place. The little room next to your editing station with the custom shelves was the "HAM shack" that held all the guy's radios and gear that people collect over the years.
Combine the radio and bomb shelter... and you're good to go in the next apocalypse ....
@@davidwilliams3643 The place was originally built in the sixties, and the Cuban missile crisis probably had a bit of an impact on builders back then, so the shelter kind of makes sense.
With the lake and the land, he could set himself up nicely. Beautiful spot!
Keep it and install a Tempest weather station which you can use in some smart home applications
Exactly! If he doesn't want to take up the hobby, contact a local club and I'm sure they would take it down. Those towers are worth a lot!
@@prestontiegs5022 - I'd mount a HDTV antenna on it and get free TV.
This house has sooooo much potential. The backyard could easily be turned into having a complete vacation vibe. Excited to see what you do with this house. Should totally make a bonsai shed and get your mr.Miyagi going.
Freddy, if you were anybody but yourself, im sure a lot of us wouldnt be watching. Keep doing you. You deserve all of the great fortune you receive.
16:10 that thingy crawling on the the wall and away... is way too funny🤣🤣
The whole time im just hoping and saying to myself “ I wish he gets sponsored by landscaping/construction companies” so we can see the transformation happen faster while we still get quality car related videos at the same time. Eitherway, congrats Freddy! I still remember an old video of yours when you were repairing a car in your parent’s driveway, and seeing how far you made it makes me really happy for you!
This house has so many different quirks and features you should get Doug to review it.
THISSSS is a house
no, please no. He's the worst.
Who else saw something crawl from the door of the shed at 16:11?? GREAT HOUSE Tavarish!! Congratulations and I can't wait to see the videos from this life upgrade!!
It's just hoovie
i think it was a lil lizard
It's a lizard lol
florida lizards man they are everywhere lmaoooo
my first instinct, as an Australian, was to rewind the footage and go 'is that a spider?'
Knowing you and the effort you put into building cars this house is going to be awesome when you're done with it congrats man
Having watched you, Hoovie, Cleetus, Offtheranch, HeavyD and a bunch of others since they first started it's very cool to see the progression over the years, amazing to watch in real time. Congrats on the new house, it's going to be amazing!
Congrats Freddie. We all know that one thing you're really good at is restoring old broken stuff. Excited to see what you will do .
Tavarish: "If anyone knows how to get rid of mosquitoes, please let me know"
Also Tavarish: "Come check out the broken hot tub with a bunch of standing swamp water"

In Florida…standing water = mosquitoes
@@belladonna_redefinedanywhere in the world :
Standing water = mosquitoes
@@abubakrwilliams I can only speak for my surroundings (Florida)Thanks for the info.
After nearly dying from malaria working in Africa I have a hatred of mosquitos. You cannot beat them. Citronella candles work well. They are also attracted to stagnant water. The mosquito spray is also effective. Short term enclosed areas use netting and electrocute or blow torch the bstrds. Electrocution tennis rackets are quite good fun. Good luck with the project. We are building our dream home, it has a creek. Mossies love water.
For the mosquitos, you could get a misting system around the perimeter of your house. I’m from south Texas so I know how it goes. My parents did this with their backyard and what a complete game changer it was. Despite the creek that was behind the house, I never once saw another mosquito when they installed the misting system.
The fact that you quickly received more views in one day for this video than for Car Trek means that you need to continue to show what you do at home. It can help many. Ideas in the field of construction often come just by looking.
This is literally one of the most beautiful houses i've ever seen. Definitely deserved been a subscriber since the early days of the channel, you worked so hard to come to this and you deserved every bit of it
I have a sauna pretty similar to yours. I’m Finnish American and it’s a culture thing for us. Dm me if you have questions. Cedar is naturally anti microbial so they require little maintenance. Turn the stove on, wait 20 minutes for it to heat up, fill the bucket and cast some water onto the rocks. Make sure there is an air vent for fresh air circulation
The most ambitious project is an understatement. This is a really cool home and when you get done will be pretty awesome. I used to buy homes and renovate them and can say this is a big project. I can say this will be ten times as much as your Mclaren build. This will be a fun watch for many episodes. Great luck.
Freddy, those look like Cypress floors. If you take them out, besides the fact that you'd be crazy to do it, people will pay big money for them. So don't let anyone "rip" them out. Remove them carefully so they can be sold and you'll make a significant deposit towards new floors. Or, refinish them and enjoy them. Wood floors create a warmer and more welcoming environment than tile or stone does.
I came for the car content and stayed for you. You are such a natural in front of the camera and your personality is awesome. Congratulations on the house and good luck with the renovation. I look forward to watching this project progress.
So true. He had me cracking up this entire episode.
Freddie, nice place you got there, to get rid of the mosquitos get rid of any standing water, especially the bomb shelter. Get the waterfall on the pool working so you can flush all the mosquito lava into the filters. A couple of drops of detergent will break the surface tension on water surfaces you cannot get rid of, the lava will drown. All in all a lovely project you have there.
I never comment on TH-cam videos but damn this a guy you can say truly deserves it with everything he has done and who is as a person congrats man I was flabbergasted on that house every time you went somewhere else your really happy in the vid can’t wait to see what’s to come for every part of the journey 🎉😊😅
I'm sure the lockpickinglawyer could open the safe in 2 minutes, then do it again just to prove it was not a fluke. House looks really nice! the back yard looks sick, damn. big gz on the house, can't wait to see how it turns out.
+1 for LcokPickingLawyer
LOVE this change! Please make a continuous series! I’m in Florida and this place is unique for sure, but hey…there’s nothing more exciting than seeing another side of wrenching. This speaks to all of us. Thank you!
Congratulations on the new home. Looks great and I look forward to seeing what you do with it. Don't get rid of all the 70's styling as it is making a comeback!
Been following you since you were working on cars in your garage, Glad to see you succeed.
Really happy for you man. That’s a beautiful place 😍 in love with that backyard and dock. It takes a little time, but renovation and making a home your own is so rewarding and the best feeling I’ve ever had. After renting for years and years, I finally bought my first place 2.5 years ago, and have been steadily renovating room by room. That feeling when you finally finish out a room is incredible, just like finishing a project car haha Can’t wait to see what you do with the place man 🙌🏼
11:20 “there’s a slide that.. looks like its just made for insurance claims”
Got me wheezing 😂🤣
MOSQUITOS: plant decorative "lemon grass" around the property. its a pretty looking tall grass that has a yellow tint. it does a decent job of repelling flies and mosquitos.
i know its a small contribution, just watching and liking the videos, but im glad that, in lump sum, it adds up to you being able to do this for your family. you put a lot of great content out there for us to enjoy, so you should be able to reap the benefits of that work. and so should your fam. its a really cool house, and i cant wait to see all the fun things getting done to it
Also , not sure if good for Florida weather, Basil, Lavender are great.
hey tavarish I'm a little late to the party but if you haven't done interior painting a pro tip is instead of just painting everything all white walls you paint one wall a dark color it makes the space feel larger and gives it a nice look.
Congratulations Freddie. It is a stunning property. Yes, it is dated in some areas. But it looks like the structure is really solid and it is quite beautiful.
The refresh will not take a lot. Some updating in the kitchen and bathrooms, new lighting and paint and you are golden. The pool area is fantastic. Five acres on a lake is fantastic. One day you can build your garage with the lifts and not have to pay rent and commute. This is a dream house.
I’m so excited to see Tavarish renovate this home… love how he’s trying to make new content
Congratulations on the new home and seriously looking forward to the new content. A few notes: 1. A pressure washer is your best friend right now. 2. Solar installation asap (the sooner you begin producing your own electricity and net-metering excess power to the grid, the lower your bills and the greater your system equity.) 3. If you're ripping out old central air systems and creating a single functional system, seriously look into a geothermal heat exchange system to passively cool and heat the house (it will save you an absolute fortune meaning more money in your pocket long run and reduce your energy requirements/carbon footprint.) 4. Assess the property's insulation. 5. Maybe keep the signal tower and see if you can get a deal hosting signal equipment/cell company infrastructure. That'll turn to revenue. 6. An electric water heater will save you a bunch on gas especially if you go solar. 7. If you're already planning on doing renovations and you're at the beginning of the process with a property, seriously look at the current floor plan and ask yourself if it presently makes sense or whether a rearrangement would bring benefits. 8. Take your time with furniture, functionality comes first with the space and it's always better to gradually furnish the space in a way that makes sense rather than racing to fill every area just for the sake of getting it done. Consider reaching out to Linus Tech Tips; he's been documenting his recent home retrofit as well. If his vids don't give you ideas, then certainly the insight he could share could save you a lot of time.
Super recommend that you put in a boat lift when you redo the dock. They're expensive, but they make owning jetskis, rowboats, speedboats, or whatever way more rewarding when you have a spot you can work on them at and launch them from.
Incredibly happy that I was able to assist you in the process of buying your dream home as your realtor, and I absolutely cannot wait to see what it turns out to be!
I also helped Freddie buy his new house. Why would anyone think he would buy a new house that didn't nee rebuilding?
I click on his videos which help him pay for his house.

I’m sure there is a good bit of your audience that is not excited about this because they only watch videos for cars, but I think this is fantastic! As if you’re in my 30s seeing home renovations is actually really intriguing. And I know once you get it to where you want it to be you’ll have a unparalleled level of satisfaction. And it will house (pun intended) tons of great content even once the house and garage are finished.
I think most of his audience is just glad to see a new project 😂
@@BourbonInhibitions we hope he finishes this project haha
I'm in real estate so I don't mind
With a rectangle pool it’s easiest to get a retractable pool cover that can be walked on it will act as a way to keep debris out and is a good safety aspect for when small children are around, we always installed them on my customers pools !
In Canada outdoor pools all need them 😬
there are plants you can keep that help keep mosquitos away, you can't totally get rid of them, but if you line your pool with these specific plants. it helps keep them down. Citronella
Lavender
Lemon Balm
Marigold
Basil
Pennyroyal
Peppermint
Scented Geraniums
Rosemary
Lemongrass
Monarda
Ageratum
I'm extremely excited to see this content. This is like an endless pit of content that will keep giving no matter how much you throw at it. Even when you think you're done you'll still have 100 videos you can pull together. Daunting to think of yet fun at the same time.
Major work or not, be proud you can call it yours, and you deserve it (and so much more). You've proven throughout the years how incredibly patient and persistent you are to accomplish all that you want ✨🏆
That tower is a vhf/uhf antenna. Get hold of your local amateur radio chapter before tearing it down. They will likely either relocate it or pay you to maintain it for emergency radio broadcasting.
Nice trails. I've been working on mine, but haven't built a bridge over my creek yet. It's too deep and steep to drive an SxS through, so I gotta build either a bridge or culvert.
No time for boredom it's great to work and be occupied it will be a magnificent home when finished
it makes me so happy to see you get the chance to buy an amazing property like this, because 99 percent of others would just bring it all down, but I'm really looking forward to see what you can make of it and bring it back to life
While none of your projects look easy, and this is no exception, I love a good project house, and can see this one polishing up really nicely! There are a lot of things you can do straight away to de-60fy the look and make it your own. For instance, I'd consider painting the white trim to black or a dark gray, really looks good against the brick and will bring the exterior up to date. Home re-design is one of my passions if you care for some ideas or help, I can share my portfolio.
You have a right to be so excited about this house! It is an amazing house with tons of potential, and the size of the property is great to have, also. Hours and hours of renovation are ahead of you, but as you accomplish things project by project, you will get a real sense of accomplishment and joy! Honestly, the price of this house plus the cost of renovation are staggering for me to grasp, but will bring worlds of enjoyment to you and your family! The very best of luck to you!!
I’d have bought the house for the summer kitchen alone! Such a cool feature.
Get rid of the mosquitos by cleaning/treating the pool and spray cedar oil around the perimeter of the yard.
🧱🌳 The blocks in the tree may have been from back in the day when the tree may have been damaged so people put them in there to allow it to grow around them. My grandparent’s house has to trees with concrete in the holes haha. Congratulations on the house and excited to see its transformation!
One of the coolest houses on TH-cam
So glad to see how far tavarish has come and how all his hard work is paying off.
Can’t wait to see the content of the house and upcoming stuff
It’s always cool to see him excited about something new
I was upset when the Abandoned Mansion series ended from Matt Cariker, then Tavarish comes in with this?! This is gonna be such an epic series. Pretty close to my family's home in Florida. That would be so fun to have the resources to be able to work on it at your own pace. Proud of you, Freddie, for putting in the work to earn the financial security to afford a place like this then work on it.

Only just watching this now, after watching the sad video from a couple of months ago. I can't remember if he mentioned anything about the house, but it looks so cool! And I hope he gets to keep doing stuff with it, especially as it seems like he's mega excited about it all.
For the bomb shelter, you can just buy a sump pump from home depot. A nice 2hp unit will make some reasonably quick work of the water in there, and is always something helpful to have around the house.
Make sure that it is a trash pump so it will handle leaves and such.
As a fellow home owner in the woods, this house is super cool, going to be really fun watching you bring it back to life. The lake access is insane!

@@nooboftheyear7170 it’s their territory and we are greedy intruders,just part of the experience
Congratulations on buying your dream house, you've come a long way and it great to see you hit a big milestone. When i saw you complete the McLaren 675lt i thought that was incredible you were able to fix a wrecked super car that was your dream super car and i hope you continue to grow your channel.
Edit: when are we gonna see the SCF the isf powered sc300 ????
the free space on the ceiling is a way to make your house bigger or in a sense feel big. when you have strong contrasting lights off the window and it hits the side wall straight away for example, it will make your mind think that it is small with the dark colour on top making it dull etc etc. see the white colour when you look up into the free space thats a way to get the sun-light to continue and not bounce off the wall and clash with your eyes in other senese to see the houses actual structure to not subconsciously think that its a dull small place.
Seems like a really nice house. I work for a flooring installation company, and I've seen much worse renovation projects on a daily basis. Removal of any of that hardwood (or any sub-floor leveling for that matter) are extremely expensive. Congrats!
Inspiring to see this Freddie, I’ve been around since the white Gallardo and remember seeing it run on the dyno with the twin turbos. You’ve worked so hard for this and deserve all the success you reap, enjoy the house and just like the cars, remember you are the warranty!
Congrats Freddie on the house and starting a whole new TH-cam chapter. Love the idea of the recording studio, and look forward to seeing where you take that aspect of your house. Get those guitars up on stands or hangers though, don’t leave them lying on their headstocks!
I LOVE THIS HOUSE!!! I can see it being a lot of work but so rewarding as you complete each project! I can’t want to see the updates!
Freddy really got absolutley jacked, I remember him being a little chubby about a year ago. Your form looks insane dude. Happy to see you evolve and unfold in that insane rate. Much respect
Congratulations on your new home. My only suggestion would be to create a another TH-cam channel to chronicle you New Home and the trials that you will face getting it to the way you want. Have this channel (Tavarish) as your car channel since everyone is familiar with it. You can do a crossover segments between channels to let casual watchers what is going on with the other channel. I hope for the best in your new challenge and please keep up with the great content. New channel name " Tavarish's Hooptie Home" ?
as a swede im proud you mentioned it. but saunas are mostly associated to finnish people where it originates from :D looks like a house that can be customized pretty good.. looks awesome
I'm feeling all of those emotions again watching this...earlier this year I put everything I had into the house next door to me. I shared the project on my TH-cam channel because because it literally took every penny to my name and every minute of my time. I'm really enjoying this video because you worked so hard for this, only to DO EVEN MORE WORK. I hope everyone watching is as inspired as I am.
Checked out your channel. Great content. You deserve more subs.
@@samirekram you're amazing, thank you so much, that means a lot!
I promise I wasn't trying to pick up viewers, just relating to the anxiety of what Tavarish is no-doubt going through. That feeling of "Holy crap, I have to turn this project into money or BAD THINGS will happen to me financially", and my version of that was getting the house rented before I ran out of money. Massive risk but it was so, so rewarding. My renters are amazing people, I doubled the land I'm on and it's paying for itself...the benefits really stack up fast.
Many congratulations Tavarish. Enjoy the property when it is finished and may you experience joy and all the very best that life has to offer in this home with your family.
Beautiful home. Can't wait to see it when you're done with it.

I grew up down the street from this house and a friend of mine lived here when we were in highschool. Always loved the way this house looked and its great that it's getting fixed up now.
As a big fan, I am looking forward to your house/property renovations! I spent most of my life in the Mobile Bay area, and I can commiserate with you about the climate, and definitely about the occasional hurricane! Such a cool house... so many possibilities... Don't rush into all of the projects; it can burn you out. I would imagine that prioritizing is going to be a challenge. Thanks for sharing with us!
This is awesome, love the fact that he has the balls to be a regular guy and show us his house that needs work rather then some stupid rented palace to make us envy the "good life"
Um literally a mansion with a huge pool he's no regular guy anymore
Lmao Tavarash has 6000 sq ft of house and he wants to have a gym in the back of the property? Nobody is ever going out there to do anything except possibly bury someone. Not saying it’s a perfect axe murderers shed…but
No chance I would Ever swim in that lake. Nope, not happening not once, not ever!
Tavarish..not a big car guy or home guy, but i sure enjoy your videos. You are an awesome human being. Thank you for sharing your life with us!
Congrats Freddie. That house is huge for your family. Time for your family to increase in size. :) I think a large property with no HOA was a smart move. Good luck with the renovation.
This house is an absolute dream! Glad to see tavarish cashing in some of those car trek checks
Congrats on your success and the new house! With all that space out back you could build a shop on-site! It sure makes for better balance in my home-life vs. having to drive to/from. Excited to see your renovations, and waiting until Jack gets tired of sanding sheetrock :)
Ngl watching this video made me feel better, I did the same purchase, and went from learning all about cars to learning all about how everything in a house works whether be plumbing, electricity, landscaping, drywall, painting, etc. Just take your time and don't get overwhelmed it'll be worth it once you start seeing your dream house transforming exactly how you want it.
Congratulations Freddy!!! The new family compound is INCREDIBLE!!! Best of luck with the renovation! Cheers to making memories for years to come!
Hey Freddy, in your vast array of parts do you happen to have Lexus SC interior?
Kind of a bachelor pad now.. yikes
@@lukelaputka7164 What do you mean by that mate.? Has Tavarish had family problems?
See you guys in a year for part 2. Can't wait to see the house at sema.
Congratulations on all your success, it’s so great to watch you and your channel grow over the years. Big project but we know you will crush it!
Well deserved after so much hard work. Been watching your for ages and I can’t wait what to see what you do with this house. Would love like a 675LT’ interior inspired interior in the house somewhere like the office or something…
Much love from Norway 🇳🇴
Massive congrats on this house purchase Freddy. Hope that you, your wife, your kids and your pets come to love and enjoy the property. Keep lots of mosquito repellent handy, remember to use it often and you should be fine.
Can't wait for the 💣 shelter exploration video. Congrats on the house. It looks like a ton of work but there is definitely huge potential. Good luck with everything and I look forward to watching as much as you want to share. Cheers...
My God. 😵😵😵 What an absolutely amazing canvas to start with!! Especially with SO much possibility of content collaboration. Actually, just the rebuilding content attraction to see how well the quality is executed with this sort of extraordinary layout. 5 acre waterfront with easy provision of building a true car enthusiasts home facility, a poolside guesthouse AND a separate raised pool kitchen with a hot tub extension above the pool, and an extended dock run with a full sized out-deck. Imagine what that out-deck could look like with a stylized cover and fully lit. Or even run a gas line out to a simulated fire pit. I would go friggin nuts on that place, lol. From what I could see just from this video, it looks to be quite solid and simply needs a good solid extensive makeover. What a great adventure this could be. 👍🏻😎👍🏻
It's not just the content, it's you that keeps us watching.
Incredible house!! Been watching since early days and I’m so happy to see you succeed! Recently I purchased my first home as well and it’s definitely a process to get everything done!
I do home networking, audio, and smart home design and a house like this would be amazing to kit out. Hope you do some of that in your renovation as well! Looking forward to following the process.
