For me it’s smart to have your parents living space on a ground level. Think they are going to get older and having to go up and down stairs may not be a problem now but in the future.
Anita and Neil did a superb job (especially for their budget). Great to see a project where the family are not adding a huge modern kitchen/diner, but creating a lovely home for the whole family.
I love this show because the homes keep their original character and aren't turned into a sterile, cold contemporary house with unusual siding and roofing materials. It's refreshing that the homes get better instead of ruined.
It's awfull news that Russel lost his job. It's the problem of modern day economy, a job for life doesn't exist in this world anymore. Hope he gets sorted soon.
Considering the parents we're paying for some of the build, the son in law should be less selfish about that gym, he probably will not end up using everyday anyway. I would take advice from a professional.
wasnt so small, and i always wonder, why should a guy always have a man cave/gym/study? why cant the woman have that, too? they never seem to make those...
You grange, If it was me I would write to Sarah Beeny through Channel 4 TV, 124 Horseferry Road, London, SW1P 2TX. Ask them to pass your letter on to her.
Geez, what does Sarah have against garages? Yet again she has talked people out of having one, and now the poor guy still has no where for his gym equipment, not to mention no area for storage of paints, bicycles, kids buggies etc. But hey, they got a tiny nondescript room where they can put 2 cane chairs and a few scented candles.
while white people find them a burden & shove them quickly in a old folks home! asians don't, as parents gave birth & raised you, in return you can at least be there for them in final years.

I don't understand the loft balcony in Bristol overlooking a road junction 😕
I will watch anything and everything that Sarah is in. She is worth her weight in GOLD ☺️.
haha omg they didnt wanna give the child a bigger room at first

Show starts at 2:35
Nice people. Great builds.

In Essex that side and rear extension at the end of the show would cost over 120K and you would have to deal with cowboy builders.
Russell doesn't need another job, just buy another house to renovate with his father-in-law!
Don’t the families consult professionals who guide & advise before plans are drawn up?
I wonder the same thing.
Maybe they should have bought this garden office, so he could work properly from home...
Thanks for the ideas.
Grandparents will eventually need to be on the ground floor.
Stairs keep you fit up to a certain point, after that, they still can build a stair-elevator
Lived here “ all me life” she definitely a Cheshire Lass
Couldn't believe that a room for personal gym equipment would be a priority - how selfish can one man get?
Considering the parents we're paying for some of the build, the son in law should be less selfish about that gym, he probably will not end up using everyday anyway. I would take advice from a professional.
Most home workout equipment never gets used anyway.
I would have put in the connecting doorway. However, it might be better not to have it in case they want to sell or rent the unit down the road.
He did!
the grandparents won't end up up using the living room every day either, they live 8 months a year in South Africa
No connecting door. In laws are already running his life and they want him to give up the one small corner he wanted for himself.

It would be nice to use the garage unit for a rental. Make some money off it
I agree!!Great Idea!👍🤔🎯💯💯💯
Nicely done 👍🏼👍🏼
ThAt walk out window is a waste of time
Should that not be down to the water board if their work crew have initially done a botch job?
Poor Neil
seen
Bristol house would be worth 500k easily now
Sorry Neil you can't have your own personal space, the in-laws want a 2nd living room for when they pop in over summer. 🙄
Just a question...do people in Britain live with their old parents?
while white people find them a burden & shove them quickly in a old folks home! asians don't, as parents gave birth & raised you, in return you can at least be there for them in final years.
I think he definitely needs a gym at home 😅
Thats a comment imbued with selfishness at its core
cant stand people who wear shoes in the house
can't stand shoe-nazis
you see, i cant stand ppl that make me take them off when i visit
Agree, you walk in dirt and carry it through the house.
I'm straining to hear and understand the talk! The music is too loud and it's inappropriate. Just can't go on with this.
Just dont do it! Keep parents close but not in the same household.
But they’re going to use it around 4 mos a year. The rest of the year they would be in South Africa.
Every person is entitled to live by their own arrangement. They font hsve to please you Mr. Mark
