    Congratulations on completing those big projects. That house looked good when you found it, but you and Tommy have certainly given it a much needed polish to turn it into a vintage masterpiece. As I've said before, the whole neighborhood is elevated when people like ya'll invest so much time and effort into preserving those 'one of a kind' historical homes. I've enjoyed watching the changes unfold and have learned a lot from you. Every video has been inspiring and exuding of your charm and great taste.
  • 103 degrees! Your care and attention under such conditions are applauded. It’s a remarkable garden.
  • The backyard looks gorgeous as well as the front yard. What you have done is simply amazing.
  • @nmp6338
    The financial commitment that you have made with updates such as roofing, gutters, brickwork, new drains, sprinkler systems, cement work, fencing, landscaping and interior work such as refinishing the basement and remodeling the kitchen is quite impressive and overwhelming. Investing in this house must be quite rewarding. I certainly hope that it is your forever home. You are very dedicated caretakers of this lovely historic home.
  • Sydney I cannot believe the front garden is so full. Everything has filled in and grown so beautifully. Roof look great. Nice color. I know you are happy finally having the rest of your to do list almost completed. Looks amazing. Thanks for the video.
  • @marybeth4002
    Lots of infrastructure improvements - the roof looks wonderful in keeping with the original architecture and style of your beautiful home. Also, it's the little changes that make a big impact such as the trash can area. You and Tommy have been so busy with the home - I hope you had a relaxing vacation. 👍♥
  • Hooray! I voted for the dark blend of browns for your roof. I applaud your decision to forgo the busier shingle upgrade because you absolutely do want your home to present as a unified whole. Your roof has plenty of interest in the pitch and gables so more attention was not needed. Hopefully you and neighbors together have successfully eradicated the endlessly annoying issue of the Virginia Creeper and Wisteria growing between the two fences! I am always battling this same problem on two sides and I am always the loser 😢 Kudos to you and Tommy for all the historic preservation and beautiful upgrades you have achieved in house and garden in such a short time. ❤

    The new roof looks beautiful and I can only imagine how hard a job it was for those roofer's. I don't know how those guys work in that heat up there. The front yard looks great despite the few casualties, but I know how those boxwoods really bother you. You've done so much to preserve and upgrade the home and I'm always amazed at how much you and Tommy get done. You both can pat yourselves on the back for projects well done.
  • Sydney, you and Tommy have done an awesome job making this house your home, inside and out. I know it is so tiring, expensive, time-consuming, etc., but it is so worth it. My husband would get a little fraustrated with me because i wasn't all that excited to go on vacation because i loved my home so much and didn't want to leave it. It was difficult to find places to stay that were nicer than my home. That's not bragging it's just loving where you are so much. 😊
  • Love the light foliage and grays in the front yard. They make such an impact. Really soften the bed lines I, too, totally stress when things are getting done at the house. Digging up the front yard for underground retrenching had me out of my mind!!! And I stress when anyone has to get up in the tall trees to prune.. I just have to look away. The roof looks great, the yards are looking good too. My favorite is the front. I think its because its my dream house! Jut love those rook lines and brick homes have my heart!
  • Your garden looks beautiful every year. You’ve done a great job of making it look good on every surface of your house and garden . May you and your husband have an amazing time together in your home.
  • I can so relate to the damage from having the roof and gutters replaced. We had a horrendous hail storm last year and had our entire roof replaced, gutters and siding repairs, gazebo replaced etc. They did a marvelous job of protecting my gardens but there was some minor damage. Just so glad to have all that disruption finished and over and all the repairs done, now the gardens can recover and look beautiful once again.... Your home and gardens are wonderful and amazing, so beautiful!
  • Syndey, Everything looks wonderful! You'll have done several huge projects in little over one year moving there. Everything you've done has increased your home value which is wonderful.
  • Love your flag, Sydney! Wow!!! The flower bed shapes and plant combinations are STUNNING and have revived the house!!!
  • @carmengholipour426
    SYDNEY AND HUSBAND, YOU ARE DOING A WONDERFUL JOB WITH THE RENOVATION OF YOUR HOUSE, IS LOOKING LIKE A NEW ONE, VERY PRETTY.
  • @QueenAyeee
    Everything is looking amazing. So much work has been done.❤
  • @KayeCarterTV
    I also understand about how getting stressed out when you have things done around your home. We are having our house trim work pressure wash tomorrow and I’m thinking oh dear we have to move all the veranda furniture, etc. so I can so relate. Thank you for sharing your yard …looks beautiful and sending you hugs, love prayers and kindness with the daily dose of encouragement With positive thoughts.♥️🙏🏻

    The front yard looks amazing. Everything is so full and in perfect balance. Also like the new roof color you chose. It has a wonderful harmony with the whole house.
