Matty Clarke, a Canadian YouTuber, bought an old, abandoned house on a remote Newfoundland island without seeing it in person—just over the phone. The house was far from welcoming, with moldy beds, a leaking roof, and damaged floors.
Despite the daunting condition, Clarke embraced the challenge. Over months, he battled extreme weather and made repairs, sharing his journey with viewers who admired his upbeat attitude.
His videos showed him fixing sagging ceilings, planning new kitchen walls, and restoring wooden floors hidden beneath worn surfaces. To prevent further damage, he covered the roof with a tarp.
Fans praised Clarke’s positivity, calling him one of the most optimistic people they’d seen. They enjoyed watching him turn a neglected house into a promising home.
Clarke’s story shows that with determination and a positive outlook, even the most forgotten places can be transformed into something special.
