Great renovations! Would love a house like this. Love the idea of the extra handle on the door to close it.

Thats so awesome. I was in a nursing home for 6 years after becoming a paraplegic as although not old enough, the just didnt know what do with me. When ndis came out. Housing plus built villas, called SDA or specialist disability accommodation. Built for eherlchsirs, so I escaped 12 months ago. Dont get me wrong im really grateful but I do wish they gad seen this video!! Si many brilliant ideas, like the pull down shelves in the cupboard, I struggle to reach into cupboards, the slide out shelf under the oven etc. Wow. Would live dome tips. My ot is organising, for some modifications, so at least I can open my front door lol. If you had some tips it would be awesome. Livebetter bevs story..... there's a lot of things I struggle with inside still

Thank you for showing your house. 3:34 Personally, I would have preferred the deck to be level with the indoor floor.

Just got this video in recommendations November 2019. I would love to know more about your home modifications. Am in a similar situation now. Any chance you keep up with or get notifications if someone comments on your vid? I pray so but can understand if you don't. Irregardless though, thank you for this inspiration...

@ 7:44 Gardening services must be expensive in Canada. I live on a half-acre lot & my gardener charges $30 to mow our lawn. Which comes out to about $240 a year.( It cost $15 - $20 to hire someone to clear snow from our sidewalks & driveway.) An excellent riding mower can cost as much as $5,000. But you can find a fairly good one for under $2,000. $2,000 dived by 24 = $83.33 each time someone mows your grass or clears your snow. And 24 visits in one year is being generous. So I doubt buying a riding mower is paying for itself in a year. More like in five or ten years. The only way it's paying for itself in a year is if you're buying a used riding mower.

I just noticed this video is over 5 years old. So my price might be slightly off.
