I had the absolute longest laugh 😂 when they showed the house they ended up going with instead...the shot with the sheep staring at the camera! Thank you so much for this made my day!! 😂

[@boligeepiper6121]

Same here! The guy was such a fool.

[@lwaliz]

My heart sank for that poor wife of his with the terrified look in her face when faced with the prospect of having to do the conversion themselves.

[@valynteena]

​I don't think he is. I just wish they would have gone for the 3rd house. It was above budget but it was a better option that the reno one except they got it for a good price.

[@valynteena]

​@@lwalizI don't think there is anything terrifying about doing a conversion. It's called patience and seeing potential.

[@valynteena]

@@lwaliz exactly. I was just commenting what I thought.

[@sonaterese799]

Instead of building in storage space, the ridiculous couple bought a complete renovation project - unbelievable!

[@jenniferlynn3537]

I don’t think that man would’ve been satisfied any other way. However empty shells only look huge until they’ve been converted into livable rooms. So I’d be curious to know how spacious he found his new abode after all the walls were up and custom storage allocated per his specifications. Did they end up with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths and the same square footage *plus* additional storage space a separate laundry room and garage? Inquiring minds want to know!!!

[@Kevin-sm8pn]

Mmmm. You gotta love contradicting wish lists! "I don't want to be surrounded by neighbors, want tons of privacy, have tons of land, no road or street noise, or any kind of noise, but I want to be near shops and restaurants in a busy, lively, trendy safe neighborhood in the city center!" God. lol

[@relocatetoEUROPE]

Yeah . And they think they are different, but in fact exactly the same as the millions of people who don't know what they want...

[@anneroy4560]

We live in Cambridge UK, right in town which is good & fortunately on a dead end street so no drive by traffic ... it is quiet here.

[@Whisperwomaneq2]

The couple that backed out of the deal and bought the complete conversion project will live to regret that. They will never get it finished. Realize it was too much work and money since they will have to rent till it is done. They could not have vision to add their own storage at a minimal cost but go buy a sheep shack.....

[@alenac.3934]

I agree. I was ready to whack my head on the wall when Phil said they backed out of the deal. Such a fabulous house (and the views!!!) and he nixes it because of where the washer was. I think he convinced himself that the house had lack of storage.

[@Kevin-sm8pn]

They did do an update on them two years later, so I'm assuming they finished it.

As other viewers to this episode commented, I cannot believe they backed out of purchase - after a great, solid negotiation by Kirstie - for the sake of he didn't like where the washing machine was positioned and lack of storage. I do so hope, their chosen purchase, complete renovation, gave them exactly what he wanted.

[@andreaandrea6716]

These are SO WONDERFUL!!! I look forward to them every week. Bless you to the Moon for posting these episodes. They make my day and cheer me up so much during these crazy times we live in!! THANK YOU!

[@alpal6300]

They turned down a ready to go house that they could have added storage to, put the toilet next to the shower, and put laundry where the toilet was. Then they went and bought a total barn reno that will take all their evenings and all their weekends for years to come. No more bike riding for them. Time to grow up kids.

[@valynteena]

It didn't say how much they got the total ban reno house for and how much it will cost to restore it because the 3rd house was a better option and I would have gone for it.

[@patriciakelly69]

I can’t believe those two.

[@jennyloedolff4JESUS]

If you are complaining about space for the washing machine, then you are definitely not ready to buy a home. That's just ridiculous.

[@valynteena]

It wasn't just about the washing machine, he felt the bedrooms didn't have much storage as well.

[@valynteena]

For the 1st couple, that 2nd property they saw, was gorgeous. It was further out, more expensive than the 1st property which was a house but it had more space and being on two floors made it feel more like a house. Although i am not a big fan of shared gardens, it is doable. Personally, that dining area downstairs, i would use as the livin room since it opens up into the garden. Then the space upstairs being used as the living room could be the studio/office space/4th bedroom with a sofa bed in it. For the 2nd couple, I loved the detached house that Russel, the hubby liked. Like he mentioned, it was more sensible, it had more space and bedrooms, it was fully detached, had a double garage and huge acreage. It is actually a grown up thing for a man to take on a longer commute and updating a house in order to achieve the dream of a bigger space they will not outgrow. That house does not look like it now but it will surely. It's not everyday you get a 4 bedroom, double garage detached house with nearly 1 acre of land for that price. Unfortunately, as it way above budget, they couldn't go for it.

So many people view houses and see them at face value. They just can’t or won’t see the potential to make it their own.

[@bar10ml44]

Imagine being concerned about being overlooked. I lived in a small luxury apartment building in Melbourne. The pay off to get into the building was the smaller two bedroom offering which was overlooked by a larger block next door. I couldn’t care less. As if people are going to be so interested in looking into your life.

[@elizzy8754]

Curtains, blinds, shutters internal/external, half nets, folding screens, fill the window space with indoor plants. I use all those tricks. Sigh 😞

As an unmarried couple they're asking for headaches because there's no guarantee they won't break up. If one person leaves and refuses to contribute more to the mortgage the other one might not be able to afford it on his or her own. At least married couples have legal recourse in the case of divorce.

[@lorijones9579]

It’s a terrible idea to buy property with a boyfriend/girlfriend. Nothing like a bad breakup and possible foreclosure to take the romance out of mixing home ownership and dating.

In Spain the washing machine in the bathroom is very common!

[@cg9616]

UK it’s in the kitchen or preferably a utility room

[@BritGirlJay]

Germany it's bathroom too - in the US it's usually a laundry/utility room (big cupboard/tiny room somewhere).

[@peterdance9143]

​@@BritGirlJay Where I am in the US (Nevada) all the homes in the development here, built 1990, have the option of washer&dryer either in the 77 sq ft utility room or in the secure 2-car garage. Mine are in the garage so it frees up the utility room to use as a computer room/office. But you're right, I think the trend now is to have them in the house.

[@fabienneclavier5984]

In France it’s either in the kitchen or the bathroom. Only newer houses may have a separate laundry area (and I do mean houses, not flats). Still not that common.

[@carlac4407]

In Italy and in the Netherlands too. It's almost never placed in the kitchen.

[@kimberlypetrossi6607]

In England, I’d buy cheap and tear walls out, and make it my own, with more open space than all the small rooms.

wow - they really did a great job.

[@andydufresne5297]

Thank you for posting! Wow, they did put in the work to turn that old ruin into a modern home, to their credit! I didn't see that coming and was very impressed. Paid 130,000 for the property, and then--over the 2-year time period in which they were developing their dream house--an additional (approximately) 235,000, for a total home cost of about £365,000. Not too shabby! (As someone pointed out, they likely had to pay to live somewhere else during a good chunk of those two "house construction" years. If this is the case, then the question is, if they had hired professionals to help with the build, rendering the new home habitable much sooner than 2 years, would that actually have saved in the long run by reducing the amount paid out in rent?)

I think they didn't buy the house because... those bedrooms have nasty slanting walls. I would NEVER buy a house that had rooms with handicapped walls. That's an ATTIC (good for storage), NOT a real room. ALSO... you have those stupid skylights in the slanting walls, NOT ACTUAL, REAL windows. I want a room with walls that stand tall and a huge window through which I can see the most beautiful countryside in the world.
