Tim Burton, better known to millions as Shmee150, has reached a significant milestone in his content creation career by purchasing his dream home in the English countryside. The British YouTuber recently announced he’s moving The Shmuseum, his famous supercar collection, to a barn conversion he actually owns after years of leasing facilities.
Burton’s journey began humbly over a decade ago when he started documenting exotic car spots around London. His authentic enthusiasm and dedication transformed casual videos into a full-time career. His first significant purchase, a Ford GT in Liquid Red, became an iconic symbol of his channel’s success and remains the centerpiece of his collection today.
The new property, reportedly purchased for around $3.5 million based on speculation, houses both his personal residence and business headquarters. The estate sits on approximately 2.5 acres, offering far more space than his previous location. Shmee keeps the exact location of The Shmuseum private for security reasons.
Being Shmee we’re talking about, the cars inside are worth several times more than the building that houses them. Shmee’s current car collection exceeds 25 vehicles and includes some of the world’s most exclusive machinery. Notable examples include the track-focused McLaren Senna, the wild Zenvo TSR-S with its active tilting wing, and the “practical” V12 Ferrari Purosangue, his daily driver.
His garage also features the Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series, a very loud Lamborghini Huracán STO, Ferrari SF90 Stradale, and various other limited-production models collectively valued in the millions. For someone whose net worth is estimated at around $20 million, earned through YouTube ad revenue, brand partnerships, and merchandise sales, this is a significant sum.
The new Shmuseum will reportedly accommodate his entire fleet with room for future acquisitions. Plans include multi-level car storage systems, dedicated filming areas, office space, hospitality zones, and comprehensive security measures. Shmee has maintained the Nürburgring racing theme that made his original Shmuseum famous, with track-style floor markings and grandstand-inspired viewing areas.
More than just a new garage, the barn marks a turning point: a creator who once filmed other people’s cars now owns both the collection and the stage it’s displayed on. In an era where digital influence rivals traditional automotive media, The Shmuseum stands as proof of just how far a camera, consistency, and genuine enthusiasm can take you.
