We're Liam and Nikki and we're knocking two terrace houses into one family home.
00:03
11 years ago we bought the house on the left and it needed a full renovation.
00:07
We set about doing it ourselves and with the help of family and tradesmen when needed,
00:11
we made it into a house we loved but soon realised we needed more space.
00:15
We ripped apart the loft conversion and then extended the extension.
00:19
With the help from builders who are also friends,
00:21
we set about creating our perfect bedroom with an ensuite and just look at that view.
00:25
That's one of the reasons we never wanted to leave.
00:27
When we thought we were finished and near in future we would have to be creative
00:31
as our family grew, we were given the opportunity to buy next door.
00:35
We posted about it on Instagram and that's when things got crazy.
00:39
Even though our home looks finished in some rooms,
00:42
we're nowhere near finished and we're still living in the renovation.
00:46
We're still working on the floor plan and how to join the two extensions together.
00:50
Not only has the house doubled in size but so has our gardens.
00:54
There's been a crazy amount of grafts so far and there's loads more to do
00:58
and we've already created a lifetime's worth of dust but we absolutely love it here
01:03
and we can't wait to show you what we've got lined up next.
