4.5 Years In 40 Minutes | FULL English Cottage House Renovation | From Start To Finish

This Is It... Our FULL 4 and a half year house renovation from start to finish all compiled into one 40 min MEGA video edit! When we first bought this house back in July 2019 we had plans to update and renovate this old English cottage, but a global pandemic, material shortages and cost increase made this a much bigger project than we first thought! WE aim to do the majority of the work ourselves on quite a tight budget, and we believe we have turned this old, tired and run down cottage into a future proof family home. There is so much more content that didn't make it into this video, so if you want to see more or find out more info then please head over and watch our 3 series containing over 50 videos of us renovating this house!

WOW thank you so much for all your incredible comments and so many views on this video, we are blown away by the support 🙌

[@jadedavis822]

Wow you did really good any thoughts on doing another renovation?

[@jennifersmall1998]

Phew !! that takes me back fifty years to my first house renovation . I am now, fifty years later ,on my seventh house renovation, surprise surprise it’s a bungalow. All done, no more renovations, I’m just going to sit in the garden and listen to the birds.

[@kathleenclark5877]

I am totally creeped out because only a couple of weeks ago, I was wondering what had happened to the two of you! And … here you are! I am beyond amazed at the enormity of what you had taken on, to begin with, and what you ultimately achieved on your own as complete renovation neophytes. Stunning. You even basically architecturally redesigned your space and were able to fit it all out with brand new technology while doing each stage properly and cost effectively. You didn’t rush and, as a result, you got the most gorgeous house that you wanted from top to bottom. Plus! You are still together (a miracle when it comes to the horrors of house renovations) with Neo, your new wee familial addition. Best of luck from Canada to the three of you. Well miss you!

[@dingeldiy]

the days are long but the years are short, well done!

[@SnHamid2357]

Wow great teamwork guys, looks amazing. Fantastic job!

[@diverabotman5947]

Oh I love what you did. We did it also 20 years ago. And we also have a black English Cocker Spaniel. My only question in Holland we isolate a lot, floors, ceilings, walls etc. Did you did that also?

[@JohnnyBRad]

The perfect Sunday watch! Insane to see the progress, the changes, and just the growth of you two! Thanks for putting this entire thing together!

Brilliant renovation. Very impressed. You should get in touch with the Fully Charged show people, the sunamp and infrared heating system is very much their sort of thing.

[@StuartPacker]

Superfabulous you amazing people x

[@lowe8270]

Interesting build. You definitely modernized this house. I just wished you would have kept more of its original charme like the beautiful wooden floors, the winter garden or the brickbuilt fireplace. But then again, as you said, its your home only you have to live in with your own personal design

[@galfor54]

What an amazing job!!! Looks amazing. 🤩

[@kandeemorgan1954]

Really lovely you two!!! Very thoughtful and beautiful makeover!! Subscribed!!!!☀️👍🏾

[@kicharan]

Amazing edit. You guys really modernized this place and did an outstanding job imo. Do you have a budget breakdown of how much things cost at all? I'd love to see that. Especially for the sun room and the kitchen. Thanks!

[@bzelig7]

I really love all the smart details you have put into your home. But the thing i love the most is your spirit and the note you have ended on. I've renovated three houses on my own and for me it was always about just getting the job done. For you two, you have achieved something much more substantial in that you have embraced the journey. I truly wish I had been able to find the simple joy in the process. Congratulations and best wishes to the two or I guess the three of you now!

[@katieh200]

You two are amazing you have a fabulous home ,I just love what you have achieved and for having no experience WOW I am shocked well done guys I hope you are very happy in your new home and I love your puppy 👍😉💐🥂🍾🏠🔑🩷🩵

[@cd9954]

Great job, looks wonderful. Can you do an outside drone shot to have a look around? I think that'd be cool!

[@xBadWo1f]

Really love what you've done with the place. But guys - that palm tree wallpaper - I have a bag for life with that EXACT pattern :'D

[@carolinejohnson22]

It's gorgeous. You must be a builder! You make it look so easy. Beautiful and fun! Please tell me the turquoise paint colour in the living room. I want to do my stairs and landing that colour 😀🤩🥳

We are about to buy our first home and renovate it ourselves. 4.5 years 😮 not to mention 2 kids sounds scary. Also nice to see something colourful apart from all the other grey show home renovations. Love your style.

[@BARBSTER360]

Aw thank you! 4.5 years but that was through all the lock downs and material shortages which did extended how long it took us!!

[@roxanneherrman2107]

Your puppy looks like a cocker spaniel! I always wanted to get a black one so I could name him Cricket!

[@paulrockz36]

Nice

[@justinelord95]

Hey Terry Have you thought of using Milanote or Canva to show everyone your mood board? I use them all the time with my interior design. 😊

[@davidbiddle3257]

I don’t recall seeing the front of the house, or was I being distracted by the gorgeous ginger?

[@veronicasmith1147]

Yes whats next🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@camillacanovi510]

Your taste really surprised me!!

[@Jcntm1]

[@gerigame2995]

How did u learn to do the player boards and stuff?

[@alexxtodorov]

@BARBSTER360 amazing job with the place. Do you mind posting a link to the narrow drinks fridge you've got in the utility room? I can surely use something like that for my own renovation.

[@BARBSTER360]

Hey! I’ve just added the link to it on Amazon in the description of the video for you 👌🏻

[@innerlight6430]

I’m curious to know how much running the electric under floor heating will cost

[@17shalala]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@roxanneherrman2107]

I hope your recycling all the appliances, radiators, and such!

[@BARBSTER360]

yep the majority of things we sold or gave away to a new home :)

[@davidfisher840]

what s the name of the small narrow drinkes fridg fromIKEAplease i live in Germany and we cant find it by IKEA hire in GERMANY

[@toyesteve]

Ha, all those memories. It doesn't seem like 4.5 years. Do you have any idea how many skips worth of waste you produced? Must have been a few, or hundreds of rubble bags to the tip! Your house looks beautiful. Well done to you and Hollie So, ready to do another one? ha.

[@toyesteve]

Think the bathroom is my favourite room.
