billt Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 They're not all like that. The last one I watched was a family near Leominster who ended up with a black tin shack. They had quite a lot of tribulations and had to redesign to be able to build something affordable. Ended up with a simple, but acceptable design. They're still middle class and comfortably off, but no sign of an extra 100k in the back pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But did they buy an island and build a hotel on it ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeSharp01 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I thought the house in Henley was stunning - ICONIC (overused word I know) and they took their time to get it right and must have spent millions. I guess its about learning how to appreciate things which don't exude bling but nonetheless have cost a lot to achieve, as was I suspect the case with the Henley house last evening.
