Our $18k Abandoned House Renovation Just Took a Dark Turn

Tearing down walls in an $18,000 abandoned house in rural Japan sounds like a dream... until you find what’s hiding behind them. In this episode, we tackle the demolition of two Oshire (traditional Japanese built-in closets) and uncover a massive black mold problem that threatens to stall our entire DIY renovation. But we push through, mask up, and knock down the walls dividing our living room, kitchen, and pantry to finally start creating the open-plan layout we’ve been planning! 🛠️ In this episode: Demolishing two traditional Oshire closets Uncovering a hidden mold issue behind the timber Tearing down the living room, kitchen & pantry walls for an open-plan layout Thanks for watching and following along on our Japanese Akiya transformation!
