When I buy a home to flip, the first thing I fix is the landscaping and the exterior. If you do the landscaping first, it will have time to calm down and recover completely while you are working inside. The roof needs to be done early so the rain will not damage any work you do. If you do the exterior and landscaping first, the neighbors will be very happy with the visible improvements. Your work may inspire others to upgrade their appearance too. Everything impacts the resale price. Sell in the springtime when everything is green and in bloom. That's when you will get top dollar/euro for your work. The buyer will have several months to enjoy the property before the leaves fall and possibly reveal the neighbors.

As a poor man, at seventy three, I am filled with envy yet happy for all of you who did the transformation. Were I wealthy enough to do just this, I would pick the outskirts of some town that needed work for all of its citizens an literally knock out all the unemployment of the area. Even people who are imprisoned in local areas could use their handywork. From scratch to finish, a old west theme or even multi areas of interest

There are 4000 abandoned houses in Italy... people! please get to work! Love how you saved this beautiful house... all the best!
@philipvogt2855
When you save a beautiful old house, you of course enjoy the pleasure of making it your home but you also deserve the satisfaction of knowing that you have benefitted society. You have rescued beauty and heritage that would otherwise have been lost. Thank you, and congratulations.

I love that the younger generations are getting into buying old homes that for sure has great memories. I’m sure the former owners wherever they are , are very very delighted for restoring the glory of their former properties. God bless you new owners around the world.

I live in America and my husband and I spent 4 yrs renovating 1/2 of a 2 room school house back in the 90’s. My husband was a carpenter and it was what we thought would be our forever home. However we ended up selling it and moving to a traditional home because we ran out of funds and motivation. At the end of your journey I would love to know your cost and hours spent. Both must be astronomical! I love all your thought and care put into everything. Best wishes for completion of this amazing project!

As a builder’s daughter I congratulate you on the magnificent job you did on the renovations to this beautiful historical home.
@joemartino6976
Restoring, say, a 2500 square foot home to its former glory is one thing. But restoring a mansion, with the endless details present in all those rooms......that's another thing altogether. This is a magnificent home. I hope you derive enormous satisfaction in every glance.
@donaldist7321
instead of ruining it, you brought it back to its old beauty. Thank you for sharing!
@johnf.kenney3642
I'm a retired designer and have been involved in hundreds of major projects involving both new and remodeled sites. I am simply floored by your artistry, diligence, and hard work. I would have guessed you had twenty to thirty craftsmen working full time, and architects and engineers overseeing the complete projects. I will go back and watch the complete series. YOU FOLKS ARE AMAZING!
@okienana11
The hard work that both of you Ed and Anna have put into this house, along with the wedding business and raising you 2 little ones is amazing. Americans call your room a mud room.
@cbass2755
It’s wonderful you to have even saved original plants and bushes and beautiful trees around the mansion. I applaud to you
@chucklenz9011
WOW! I’m 80 and have worked hard most of my life and I can’t tell you how much of this work I couldn’t have done because of time and exhaustion. Everyone deserves a big pat on the back. Beautiful!
@earlaagaard8175
The amount of work you have done is simply MIND-BOGGLING!! Hearty Congrats. Lovely children - even more important than houses!!

In America it is called a mud room, but where the washer and dryer go is called the laundry room.
@karlanorvell9573
In the States, if it is a room with mainly a washer and dryer, it would be called a laundry room. If the room has laundry but also other uses (extra storage, hot water heater, main electric box), then we call it a utility room. A mud room is typically an informal entry room where you take off/put on your shoes and coats and store those items. Love seeing the before and after photos and video. Amazing how much work you have accomplished in a year and a half. You are both such hard workers.
@beachplumb
It always amazes me that there are such grand structures like this that have been allowed to fall into such a state of disrepair and neglect.
@blissrenee1
After watching all of the Chateau DIY shows on TV, I just ran across this channel. You two were my favorite couple in that entire series. You don't seem to fight the way the others do. Always a pleasure to watch with your endless hard work, wedding hosting and family time. Simply wonderful!
