Grand Designs -
the Dilapidated Georgian House
"Featuring Tony and Sharon Relph, a couple
restoring a dilapidated 200 year old Georgian house in London , to its former glory. They have very
little money and plan to do most of the work themselves. If they manage to
restore the grade two listed house in the Georgian style, the council will
allow them to live there rent free for a period of their lease. They peel back
layers of wallpaper to find a historical scrapbook of finishes which is donated
to The English National Heritage. A modern interpretation of a period home with
close attention to detail and sensitive repair, this is a true labour of love."
( In “Virtuoso Channel”)
I remember watching this a few years ago and being impressed by the dedication this couple invested in this beautiful property. A true labor of love indeed.
