IMHO...An utterly self-absorbed, self-appointed style guru and her enabler sister. How could their parents let them get past the age of majority like this! They absolutely wrecked the interior of a substantial and distinctive house with their fantasy Disney mish-mash of exhorbitant tat. This prime and rare example of an Art Deco house could have been so stylishly and elegantly dressed. Makes me want to weep.
Good Grief! I'm so glad this woman said she wasn't going to do anymore houses, the decor is like a 6yr old's bedroom,. Who on earth would want to pay that huge amount only to have to completely redecorate.These two sisters seem to be in total dream land. I must say since watching these programs I'm gobsmacked at how many people totally ignore the advice of a seasoned expert like Sarah rather you than me Sarah!
The pouting, the little girl voice, and the cutesy act are distasteful. A grown woman whose apartment looks like that of a ten-year-old should leave the decorating to others. I love this art deco house! What those foolish girls have done to it is simply criminal.
The downstairs, especially the kitchen, looks like something my 7 year old niece would design. Surprised there aren't Disney Princesses decorating the house somewhere. Ridiculous furnishings, especially in a beautiful Art Deco house.
There's actually a lot of potential there. The sisters have turned the lovely house into such a fright factory that someone could scoop it up for a very cheap price. The garish obscene decorating is all cosmetic. What an opportunity!
Yes! Seems like most of the hideousness is skin deep. I'd love to see an update because I can imagine a savvy buyer getting it at a low price, then buying twenty buckets of white paint, an Ikea kitchen, and making a cool profit.
This woman was so infantile, it was really amusing. This is one of the more memorable shows in the series and one I will probably watch again for the entertainment value. Just to see this woman actually say, "It's all about me!"
These girls are the prime example of why some people should not get into development, Natalies attitude that she was going to make it her own style, says why she will not sell this place for a profit.
IF the smart sister learns her lesson, the money she lost will be well spent. It took me 40 years to realize my "artistic" sister was a menace to my wallet and that I should never, ever go in with her on a loaf of bread, much less something as big as a house. "It's all about me" she says. Exactly.
The only potential buyers for this house are unicorns and leprechauns, and that pretty much sums up the probability of selling this house. Clearly these girls still live in an era where the Spice Girls are still number one on the Billboard charts smh
This really made me cry. All the original features thrown in a skip! A beautiful pearlised bench/basin.... and that black and white staircase! Destroyed! What halfwits. They ought to be in jail.
She’s decorating a dollhouse. The #1 rule of development/hour flipping is to make the house as neutral as possible so any potential buyer can see themselves living in it and not be so overwhelmed by the thought of a few changes
Basically this is flipping a house. Why spend money in furniture? Sure it gives potential buyers an idea of how things can look but surely the buyers will want to bring in their own furniture. So in general all that personal decoration is a net loss. Am I missing something? Is the housing market in the UK so different from the rest of the world that personal decoration is expected?
She would have been better off painting the house 2-3 colors and calling it a day. She did everything to her personal taste, which was naive. The next person has to spend money to make it livable .
Wow they did a terrible job on the interior of this house such a shame ! In my opinion they ruined this house with their choice of coloring and decor !
Artistic Sister on her blowing the budget "that does sound very extortionate" . I would like to think she meant exorbitant but I don't think she did. She loves spending her sisters money.
The problem with the girl is that she doesn't know .. to be able to let someone buy a house .. is to make them imagine themselves living in it.... or wanting to live in it.. but that offputting decor and colors that doesn't make your soul calm ... and the over spending on things that don't matter ... is really annoying ....
I thought Natalie was a teacher. Not much damn good at maths is she ? With all of the colour and whimsy it looks like a pre-school. That kind of figures.She should realise if she's selling for a profit not to put her own very strange taste into it. Art deco is about clean strong lines.This is a very expensive mess.The expensive down stairs loo would be a nightmare especially if one entered that room with a hangover. At least if they threw -up it would blend in well.
Oh noooooooooooooo! How awful! The outside is ok but the inside deserves to be knocked down entirely (floor ground and extension) because of how that childish so-called designer named Nathalie I think, decorated and didn't think properly. With a terrace big like that, what's the point putting the "French doors" on another place than in place of the semi-circular windows? Not a word about the decoration, kitchen and other rooms, it's just the result of a disturbed mind.
Well anyone looking at the place she owned and lived in would have to know how badly this would end up. I wonder if they ever sold it and what they got for it?
too bad there's no followup on what happened after filming. I am curious if they went in and did some redecorating to tone things down to sell it. the colors, lighting fixtures, and interior design choices are hideous! it could have been spectacular.
Natalie decided to keep the house for herself and still lives in it to this day. Now it even has a Marilyn Monroe mural 😂 apparently her husband appreciates her "taste" 😁
I'm sorry but some people get what they deserve ... Sarah is an expert so why oh why don't they listen to her. The word du jour for all investment projects should be beige/cream ... every "personal" detail you add is one more step away from the general market and this young lady made the interior look like an explosion in a paint factory. Hopefully she will learn from her mistakes and the massive monetary loss or better still stop trying to be a property investor.
This could have been a Deco masterpiece, instead of an indulged little girl's Disney princess fantasy. I wonder who gave them all that money to play with?
She destroyed that property with her ridiculous interior design. It is inappropriate for that style of house. If I were a buyer, I would walk in and turn around and walk out. Such a shame.
I think Sarah was too kind to them. Natalie is like a 2 year old let loose with a paint brush. The building is beautiful. And the structural changes are good but you can't see past those shocking colour choices. Kitchen and the bathroom under the stairs was the worst.
I think " subdued" children should rather go out and play in the sand pit in the park instead of thinking they are forever so "clever"😕 Natalie's voice is most irritating😤no wonder she gave up teaching😂I would throw up being in that house
well the big staircase was just fine but while they were madly throwing away money why not do a more appropriate spiral staircase for the 2nd floor. It looks like something bought from one of those cheap building supply places. If it cost more than 50 quid they were robbed!
There's so much wrong with this that one doesn't know where to start. Putting aside the foolish decision-making, the builder is unethical by taking such advantage of these two young women. He should have stopped them early on. One wonders if the neighbors threatening legal action was maybe just to stop the foolishness going on next door. It's surprising Sarah was so gentle with them. I'd love to know how much they ended up losing on this exercise in pride and idiocy.
It's not the builder's place to argue common sense with a client. Unfortunately, the owner is his boss - the client, no matter how ridiculous, is always right.
What a ludicrous comment. So typical of people these days - wanting to shift the blame for their mistakes and idiocy and make themselves the victims. You sound just as stupid as Natalie, if not more so.
I didn’t watch the full episode, after she mentioned her plans for the kitchen, I knew she was cookoo and skipped to the end. Couldn’t be happier that they couldn’t sell it. Foolish clowns
Just looked this up, she never sold it and has been living in it for the past 14 years and has tempered it down slightly, of course the original plans and background shown in this programme are not mentioned at all that she planned to sell it.
She ruined a beautiful house that could have been amazing!! I would have done the top room and the middle layer as the living space so you can use the roof terrace and balcony and then done bedrooms downstairs.
I have to say it is much better. Some things are still over the top, but it doesn’t look quite like the Barbie pipe dream doll house LSD trip Hello Kitty flower child in the worst sense mind bender that it before
The kitchen was all replaced...that's 34,000 quid thrown in the trash. New spiral stairs, thousands more wasted. A bathtub next to your bed? WTF? Is it a hotel room to bring a hooker to?
Guess Natalie found someone to spend money on her. She sure wasn't able to do remodeling to the development on an ex-teacher's savings. It still is a travesty of an alteration to what was and could be a spectacular art decoration home.
Less dreadful yes but no mention of the support of her sister and in all the articles of the house she doesn't mention the guidance of 'Property Ladder' either: she presents it as something she and her husband did without anyone else. I looks much nicer now and that's probably because of her husband.
@@Hasna256. I agree with you 100%. I wonder if her sister ever got her money back. I think from the very beginning she was building a house for herself to live in, not to sell.
The interiors are absolutely horrible, like a child’s doll house. Simply horrendous and frankly disgusting. If I bought it I would get a huge skip and trash all the crap she decorated it with including the awful loo downstairs
I dont want to be mean but omg,these girls must have money to burn,what an ugly inside redecoration,done for themselves and not the market.Sarah has the patience of a saint sometimes.
I am at this point TOTALLY convinced that whoever produced this series looked for THE most ridiculous people to take on...... anyone sinking their money into this fairy needs their bumps read.

It was so painful to watch, I could not watch it again. I wonder if they sold it in the end?
It makes me want to cry, seeing this house after this, so called, "renovation"... Incredible loss to a fantastic art deco building :(
This woman is not right upstairs she is stuck in a child's mind 😮
She even speaks like a little kid.
More frightening is that she is a teacher by profession.
I wouldn't let that nitwit within ten feet of my child.

😅😅😅Deadest

every time i watch this show I'd throw my pencil at the TV, this time I threw my whole pencil case at it
The interior design is terrible and very inappropriate for the Art Deco style house. It looks like a 12 year old girl decorated it.
LOL, that's an insult to most 12 year old girls!!!
@@merana59 I agree. Maybe 3-5 year old Kindy Kids
Please don't insult a 12 year old. 😂
Completely destroyed the interiors. What a shame!
Perfect pad for Austin Powers!
She’s decorating a dollhouse.
The #1 rule of development/hour flipping is to make the house as neutral as possible so any potential buyer can see themselves living in it and not be so overwhelmed by the thought of a few changes
Hideous inside decor. Outside is lovely.
The house itself looks nice, but the decorating looks like Barbie's Dream House.
Barbie's dream house was more tasteful.
Barbie on hippie crack.
Oh my goodness!?! What a mess. They must consider the possibility of finding a buyer with questionable 'taste'. And I use that term lightly!
Basically this is flipping a house. Why spend money in furniture? Sure it gives potential buyers an idea of how things can look but surely the buyers will want to bring in their own furniture. So in general all that personal decoration is a net loss.

Horrendous! What a disaster..
It was a very beautiful house... before
Looks like a kindergarten child got into the paints!
Worst ever. They had no plans, no experience and refused to listen to sound advice.
it's almost like when she started decorating she started from the top, open up a bottle of wine about time she got to the kitchen the bottle was empty
Hahaha!
ROFL.
😂 bwahaha lol yes 😋 crack up!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
She would have been better off painting the house 2-3 colors and calling it a day. She did everything to her personal taste, which was naive. The next person has to spend money to make it livable .
i can't believe those girls - its about the biz not personal preference!
😂😂😂 love the house. The decor is horrid!!! I cringe every time Natalie talks OTT.
All she needed to do was put the money into structural repairs, like the roof, and keep the decor black and white.
What an absolute waste!
I like lots of things but you don't put them all in the same house. Natalie is away with the fairies
The fairies kicked out of fairyland for being way too OTT even for their taste...
Beautiful house, beautiful sisters ... on the outside
Wow they did a terrible job on the interior of this house such a shame ! In my opinion they ruined this house with their choice of coloring and decor !
I think the house is lovely
*throws up violently *
That's how I would imagine Barbie's house!
Artistic Sister on her blowing the budget "that does sound very extortionate" . I would like to think she meant exorbitant but I don't think she did. She loves spending her sisters money.
Yes and she is a Teacher so you would think she would know the appropriate word.
@@katbar6066 I wonder what and who she teaches.
In this case, ironically, "extortionate" fits the way she got her family to mortgage their own property to help with her playing developer.
OMG this house is so ugly. All that was missing was some hello kitty. Natalie is bonkers. They must be rich to be so delusional.
The problem with the girl is that she doesn't know .. to be able to let someone buy a house .. is to make them imagine themselves living in it.... or wanting to live in it..

The noisy road would be a total no no for me, however the house turned out.
The perfect buyer of this house belongs to the Flower Power Generation. Lit incense in every room is in order during open house.
Just hand out tabs of acid as people come in to view the property and let them enjoy the fractal tiles 😂 how hideous
It’s a surprise Natalie has survived this long without an ounce of common sense.

Absolut HORRIBLE "decoration", real nightmare !!!
Does anyone know what happened to this place in the end? That was so effing hard to watch.
It was bloody Hilarious though!
Natalie kept it for herself and still lives in it to this day with her husband and kids. It's still hideous and now has a Marilyn Monroe mural 😂
Outrageous! Why wasn´t this property listed?
I thought her sister was there to rein her in. What happened?!!! 😭
Natalie is INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She'll do wonders with her own home, but to sell she's lost whatever mind she had!!??!!
Well anyone looking at the place she owned and lived in would have to know how badly this would end up. I wonder if they ever sold it and what they got for it?
@@katbar6066 Natalie got married, moved into it and now has two children (which I find scary).
@@MrsEJV You and me both- But it seems her husband may have tames her whacky taste as the 2nd renovation was quite tasteful
WTF, who would buy that!

I'm flabbergasted! , those sisters should be aloud 5 pounds a week pocket money and never aloud to get near business again !
Title should be changed to " How to devalue a property"
Trying to paint the walls while the floor is partly up and being worked on kicking up dust would be a right pain in the arse!
Are those sisters for real ?

Absolutely ruined the interior - she obviously doesn't understand art deco. Bit of a tragedy, let's hope someone will buy it and put it to rights.

Fucking disgusting! Bloody hell indeed
Ive watched 9 seasons of this show this month and this by far the ugliest house decorating like thats was so dumb
Looks like Snow White and all seven dwarves threw up in that house
I love how she pulled the amount of profit she will make out of her @ss.
This is what happens when spoiled rich kids splash an inheritance on vanity projects. Will definitely have sold at a big loss.
So much money for so disgusting place....
Beautiful house wrong developers.
Lol slow coach....😂😂😂
this could have been such an amazing house, so disappointed 🤢
