Our ugly house had ‘the best glow-up’ – no one believes it’s the same home and they gasp when they see inside
THINKING of renovating your home but struggling for inspiration?
A couple have shared their home renovation journey, after giving their outdated property a dramatic makeover.
Shauna Gallon has shared insights into her home renovation journey via videos posted to her TikTok channel @shaunagallon_.
In her latest video, which has wracked up an impressive 3.9 million views, Shauna shared before and after clips of the house.
Text added to the video reads: “POV: I want a modern house but don’t want a new build.
“Fine. I’ll do it myself”.
In ‘before’ clips of the house, it is very outdated, with peeling cream wallpaper and ugly net curtains.
Shauna and her partner completely gutted the house, ripping up the carpets, stripping the wallpaper and removing the outdated furniture.
They built an extension at the back of the house and knocked down walls to make the downstairs open plan.
In ‘after’ clips of the house, the transformation is incredible, and it’s hard to believe it’s the same house.
In the garden, the couple have installed a patio and a giant Love Island style firepit, perfect for cosy summer nights.
Shauna and her partner chose a unique, all black theme for their bathroom, with marble walls and floor and a stunning black standalone bath.
The bathroom even has a TV installed, so they can relax in the tub whilst watching their favourite Netflix shows.
In the kitchen, the couple chose to add skylights to the ceiling, so that sunshine can light up the room on summer days.
They also installed a huge kitchen island with a built in hob and added two ovens to the back wall.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts on the home transformation, and many people can’t believe it’s the same home.
One user said: “I refuse to believe this is the same house.”
Another user said: “That’s a different house, there’s no way.”
A third user said: “That was the best glow up I’ve seen in a while.”
