When celebrity couple Doug and Chesca Kramer started building their dream house in 2017, they made sure that they were very much involved in creating every minute detail about the abode – and the fruit of their plans and labor would finally be shared to the public through photos posted on their much-followed #TeamKramer social media pages.
The Kramer couple admitted that they ‘rushed’ to complete the house in time for their eldest daughter’s birthday because Kendra requested that they host her birthday party at their new house.
But judging from the beautiful house that had impressive
structures all over the place, it was clear to see that this house was definitely
not ‘rushed’!
A lot of hours was definitely spent planning on this home – and Doug admitted that there were parts of the house that he personally designed, such as the huge home theater.
Doug went through the minute details, like doing the manual measurements of the power outlets, checking to make sure there were no visible wires, and the spacing on each of the row seats.
“It’s my dream theater build and I can’t wait to rewatch more movies with family and friends! With that being said, I’m charging P200 lang per head, so come over na!” Doug joked as he shared photos of the home theater.
The grand mansion also features a swimming pool that has stunning views of the city and an expansive deck where the family loves to hang out.
Built with the kids in mind, this home also features a huge study area for the three Kramer kids who are being homeschooled.
They even have their own playground!
As expected, the Master’s Bedroom is huge. It features a hallway filled with various family photos and mementos.
There’s also a walk-in closet filled with Cheska’s impressive collection of clothes, bags, shoes, and other accessories.
What’s not to love about the #TeamKramer mansion? It’s definitely awesome!
Finally, our new home tour with a twist! It's quite a long video, but I promise you won't feel it. It's a culmination of years leading to this, and it just wasn't right to rush the video. To the team who's always captured our special family moments, trip videos… To Treehouse Story , you guys are family to us! This video made us cry as usual! ?? What a journey for our family! And we can't be more happy to share our lives with all of you, our #TeamKramer friends! Before you watch, I wanna ask, what makes a house a home?Is it the beauty or size of it? Absolutely not! We lived content and happy living in a 60 sqm condo when we started out married. Renting and trying to make ends meet. Honestly, we never compared our lives to others, we were focused on ourselves. We just knew that in God's time, if He willed it, we would get our own. The truth is, you'd rather have a small house, content and having a complete family, rather than a big place but broken and full of complaining. After renting out for a year in a condo, we transferred to a townhouse we rented for 2 years. Still trying to save up for a house we could call our own.I remember the day when Chesca told me she was pregnant with Gavin. "honey, I'm pregnant…. again!!" ? Scarlett was still a baby so it came as a beautiful surprise. Feeling blessed, but now thinking, we can't fit in this townhouse now, we had to make a change, a leap of faith to see if we can finally afford to build our own house. And so we did, despite the odds and just having enough, we proceeded to build our first home, and within a year of construction, we moved in Dec. 22, 2012 with Chesca about to give birth to Gavin in about 3 weeks. It was a 15 year plan to pay the house which we paid off in 3 years! Amazing! Truly, God's plans our better than ours.We've been living there over 6 years, fulfilled. So what made us decide to build another house? We wanted fresh air, the open garden, more space for the kids to enjoy the outdoors. And while at it, decided to put together the best ideas we got from our vacation spots and try and incorporate it at our house. We all love staying home! Now that we've transferred to our new home, it's a surreal experience to think in hindsight what God can prepare for you if you just believe in what plans He has for you. Stay obedient to God. Trust in God's timing. He will say no to some prayers, He will say yes after years of praying, and sometimes, because of His grace, He gives above and beyond what you've been praying for. The biggest lesson…you can't outgive Him. You can plan and plan, but his way prevails. God will prune you, He will test you, and it's up to you how to respond. It's not just about asking for blessings, it's also about preparing your "field" for the blessings. Don't be the farmer that just prays and prays for rain, but sits around and does nothing. Have you tilled your ground? Have you planted the seeds? Prepare yourself also, so when the rain comes, you'll be ready to receive the blessings. Harvesting will be upon you soon. To God be the glory always. It's All because of Him. We can't take credit. ??Psalm 37: 4-7"Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,your vindication like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;…"Love, Doug and Chesca ❤️
