'We bought worst house on the street and transformed it – there's no regrets' (original) (raw)

A couple who bought the "worst house on the street" shared their incredible renovation journey on TikTok – and it's fair to say people can't believe the transformation

Renovating a home can take a lot of time

Renovations can be a real headache, often costing an arm and a leg in both money and time.

It's a massive commitment with your weekends likely to be swallowed up by DIY duties. In a recent tale, a family was quoted a whopping £14,000 for a garden makeover but ended up uncovering something quite extraordinary about their outdoor space.

Now, another family's home transformation journey is taking TikTok by storm after they took on the challenge of revamping the "worst house on the street". Sharing their adventure with their 148,000 followers, the user @ourcrescenthome posted before and after snaps of the property.

The caption said: "We bought the worst house on the street, everyone said we were crazy. But it turns out, they were right... We are crazy. We took that house, tore it all apart, plank by plank, brick by brick."

"Opened it up to let all the light in, then got to work rebuilding. It has taken hard work and endless weekends, plus evenings after work. But we're finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel and can say it was all worth it!"

The minute-long video showcases the couple ripping the house apart, re-plastering walls, adding insulation and giving it a fresh coat of paint. They added: "Now we're so close to being able to move in.

"So come follow us to see us finish renovating the worst house on the street and start making it a home." The post has since exploded, racking up 1.9million likes and nearly 4,000 comments.

The heartwarming tale elicited touching responses from the community, with one person commenting: "Aww I'm so proud of you guys, good luck and I hope the home is how y'all imagined and is as cosy as y'all will make it."

Another chimed in: "Now it's the prettiest house on the street." And another added: "I've literally never been so proud of strangers, so well done to you both! Congrats!"
