We bought the worst house on the street, ripped it apart and turned it into our dream home – now people’s jaws drop
A WOMAN has revealed that she bought the worst house on the street and has given it a mega makeover.
DIY enthusiast explained that the house needed totally ripping out, but now Louise has turned the once rundown and neglected space, into a lavish home that looks like something you’d expect to see in a high-end magazine.
Posting on social media, Louise shared a before, during and after look at her home’s overhaul.
She said: “Watch us turn the worst house on the street into our dream home…”
Louise then explained: “First we ripped it all apart.
“Then we added an extension.”
The woman then shared images during the renovations, as she added: “It got a lot worse before it got better.
“We added in this peak so it matched the neighbouring houses and rebuilt the bay in red brick so it would also match.
“The dormer loft conversion was finished and we added underfloor heating.
“It’s now starting to all come together. Trust the process.
“We added cool features and lighting.”
As Louise proudly showed off her finished home, she wrote: “Hotel vibes.
“Dream home done!”
Louise’s bathroom is one of dreams – with marble walls and gold detailing.
Her open plan kitchen has huge bi-fold doors, a fabulous conservatory roof, funky lighting and a lavish media wall.
If that wasn’t enough, Louise also made sure that her bedroom was fit for a queen – with a huge grey bed and stunning panelled wardrobes.
Louise later wrote: “Building work took about 13 months.
“From buying to moving in, just over two years.”
But the renovation wasn’t easy, as Louise claimed: “So much hard work.”
The TikTok clip, which was shared under the username @louise_andallthingshome, has clearly left many stunned, as it has quickly gone viral and has since amassed a staggering 17.6 million views.
Social media users were amazed at Louise’s home overhaul and were eager to express this in the comments.
One person said: “One of the most stunning transformations I’ve ever seen. Bravo.”
Another added: “Absolutely gorgeous, well done, love your style.”
A third commented: “My literal dream.”
Another user penned: “Looks beautiful and I am definitely copying some ideas.”
In response, Louise replied: “It was mine too.”
Meanwhile, someone else asked: “Where were you staying during all the renovations?”
Louise then confirmed: “We rented a house at pretty much the end of the street.
“We wanted to be close by as we’re here everyday.”
