A COUPLE has shared how they turned a £215k bungalow into their dream home after spending a whole year doing it up.
From peeling wall paper to cracked tiled the pair hair a lot to take on but it was all worth once they finally moved into their dream home.
Natalie Attridge shared the journey in a TikTok video online.
The homeowner said she fell in love with the property as soon as she saw it but even she couldn’t predict how much work it was gonna take to fix it up.
She said: “Bought a bungalow at 20 and 22 on December 22 not realising what we were in for.”
Despite this Natalie and her partner decided to purchase the property and take on the challenge.
She said: “Picked up our keys on April 23 and got to work straight away.”
It took Natalie and her partner a lot of hard work to get the property up to living standards.
She said: “[We] spent long weekends and late evenings doing work both working full time.”
She added: “[It] affected us both physically and mentally.”
