Homestead On The Brook (Jake & Grace)

We sold our suburban home and bought 12 acres of vacant land to build a homestead from scratch.

Right now, we’re living in a 6 x 6m car port (I call it the CAR FORT) while owner-building our family home and transforming raw land into something liveable. From power, water, and driveway upgrades to full-scale builds, we’re doing it all ourselves—learning as we go.

Our four boys are part of the journey too—gaining real-world skills and experiencing homesteading firsthand.

This channel documents the real side of building a homestead: the wins, the setbacks, and everything in between.

If you’re into practical builds, rural life, and creating something from nothing, you’re in the right place.
