Fantastic job by Jane, not just the house and managing it and the interior design but not drowning her husband in that lake.
I would help her
At least he didn't decide to jump in and "rescue" her. Plus, she was dealing with a bunch of anti-woman laborers. Huge applause for Jane!
the classic line.. "we want to be in by Christmas".....
Said it myself. Now I'm saying the lesser know "hopefully in by Easter"
My wife project managed our build of the house in Thailand whilst I was still in the UK earning the cash. I had 3 visits through the build and we have 500 photos she took.
Our builder was a father and son with people brought in as and when they were needed. They were exceptional.
Capability Jane. I admire you. Well Done.
What was a bit confusing to me, as they were on a tight budget was why spend money on landscaping before finishing the house.
I wish George could go visit the homes again nearly 13 years later!
Sometimes look them up ..
I agree. I love post, post visits.
I suspect Jane had final had enough of her moron selfish husband and chucked him in the lake..
I really admire Jane taking on such a difficult renovation. She did her research, had help from friends and family to get moved in. What a beautiful country home.
Jane, congratulations, you did a magnificent job! I hope you gained confidence!
She did an incredible job for under 500k. With the beautiful house and all of the land, that was a steal.
A beautiful house! She has done an incredible job - despite her husband ;-).
As someone who has over 40 years of tech experience, in all sorts of of areas,
I can say to be a project manager on a project like this,
and to have even come close to being on time and on budget she did a great job.
.
From what I understand building permits are very tightly controlled in Britain,
and I suspect this is either a Grade I or Grade II listed building ,
so every part of the restoration would have been scrutinized.
.
Probably Grade Two “Star” listed. It’s the highest grade below buildings of “National Importance” such as palaces, museums, bridges, etc.
What a beautifully done th-cam.com/users/postUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU ! The instructions and the photographs are brilliant. It is thorough and genuinely informative. Ryan got another winner! No one does it better!
Got to admire Jane and her ability although strained at times, she pushed this through so very well and against all odds has ended up with a phenomenal investment. How do they find these fabulous projects though, at seemingly knock down prices, very well done and a great achievement that will stand for many more years to come now.
Richard had a local Council job. He wasn't even spending time at the build in the evenings, leaving all to his poor wife. Then he waltzes in and merely lists the must-do and done-wrong items he wants/sees. I get an impression of Jane getting everything done while hubby makes demands and is basically a spoiled brat. It's as if he has no concept of reality.
Yeah. He wasn’t exactly helpful or supportive; at least by how it appears on the show. I think a little sweat equity was due. He’s the kind of guy that strikes me as the type to have a little action on the side.
Or it could be a roll reversal. I have known many woman who work are extremely bright earn big wages and enjoy being the dominate personality in public but the total oppossite in private think S&M. Types😱😂
Wrong ! Richard earns a good salary whilst Jane doesnt ! The mistake made on this over spend of 70K was due to the fact there was not a project manager. Im not surprised tradesman didnt turn up when needed.
She knew what she signed up for. He earned money while she built. Having a fresh eye see issues is a benefit
We, on the outside, never grasp the entire story. Which is why we were admonished not to judge, lest we be judged by the same limited thinking.
That's a deeper promise than we humans might totally comprehend.
I am VERY IMPRESSED. Great job Jane!
Well done Jane x I have no words to describe her husband tho...well none I can say out loud
Jane did fantastic
With GOD in your Hearts everything is possible.
I don't think Richard is going to last too much longer with this lady .
I don't think he deserves to! She's killing herself, and he's picking at every little thing that isn't right, while doing absolutely nothing, and blaming his wife for the lack of progress. Don't forget, it looks like she's doing most of the childcare, too.
The husband should have shown more appreciation for his wife's hard work than he did.
I agree he is pretty self absorbed and has no concept what she did.
Absolutely. Complaining he can, but not contributing to a house that he will live in as well, other than with money.
Yep, he's been a jerk.
Something very creepy about the husband 🤔
Lets be honest, the husband was a proper dick.
A brilliant job in project management. Jane, you are a true champion!
Well done Jane.
amazing renovation, one of the best finishes in the series. Jane pulled it out in the end
Gorgeous She did a Marvelous Job !
"I have a bad feeling about this." That kid has a future:)
That kid is 20 now and as his brother I can tell you he didn't have a future
@@akkeble If my older brother said that about me I'd be scared. What did you do to your brother??? 😁😁😁😁😁
Jane, you are an absolute star ...... congratulations on a job well done.
She shows she is not organized and blows the money upfront and then gets it done at the end; same old methodology; not a good way of doing things.
@@jesseccles6089 got bugger all support so I think she did well to achieve her goal.
lol, fuckin' love this comment section. can't believe he didn't help out
Aint it marvellous. There's no money but all of a sudden the show morphs to a completed project with a happy family, antique beds, hand made curtains, expensive lighting and designer furniture. I guess everybody lives happily ever after. I could also have guessed that the husband works in local government.
I hope you read my general comment above. You're right. Its just a formulaic show....but had I known that and that I'd be made to lie....I would not have agreed to the filming.
Congrats to amazing lady Jane on completing this beautiful renovation. 💯👍🏽🇯🇲😁
I LOVE the fact that the proper materials were used. WELL DONE!! Brava, Bravo!!! (Lime render!!!)
"How do we vacuum up here?" Is Richard really from the UK? I would have expected him to say, "How do we hoover up here?"
Well done Jane
Very impressive to be the first hopme to project management. Thats not easy!
Great house! Jane came through in the end. She was very positive but a poor project manager. The husband was a negative pain. The kids will love it but you need a dog, lol.
lol
Very interesting response from Jane about the duplicity in showing her as not coping.
Like the kitchen and the chandelier! Also the master and guest bedroom. Love,love the living room!
Amazing home. Big job for you Jane
So sad to watch a wife struggling to do a job with no experience and an uninvolved husband who used his job to hide from this job. I really hated this episode.
I had one just like that and left after 30 years of his nonsense
Its a tv show. She told what actually happened in the comment section here
I think they played up that part a bit for drama. But I wouldn’t have minded seeing a bit of sweat equity from the husband. Most couples have husbands who pitch in and do more work themselves. But, he might have and we just didn’t see it.
@@robertahubert7474
I’m glad you saw the light, but 30 years?! You must be a saint! 😁
Pop a weather vane on top of the octagon dome, and you're done :)
I admire the couple that they manage to be calm and in dialogue mode while communicating despite of the stress, the steep/problematic financial and physical pressures. They are able to celebrate even the smallest achievement. They attain immortal capital. God bless them
Thank you x
Have a great home sweet home in the managerie (hope I spelled it right)
This house is just beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
My husband would get a kick on the ass if he didn't help me out.
37:27 “I have a bad feeling about this.”
That kid is brilliant! Like something out of a Harry Potter movie. They should have hired him! 😆
Harry is adorable, octopus fishing ! such fun
Absolutely loved the kitchen. And it seems like they saved the building, which is so beautiful
I was very "put off" by the expensive little buckets of lime plaster, instead of having a Project Manager" who did it by buying the lime etc and horse hair, but I am so glad I came back to it and watched all the way through to the lovely ending. Well done, Jane.
Yes, I thought that too, very easy to mix .
I hope you see my comment above. I was given that lime at a ridiculously cheap price in return for the TV exposure to the lime company. Hope that makes sense to you now. :)
@@harrykeble1778 Oh! I understand now. Who would have thought!
@@bluebird5361 I know. I wish I'd not agreed to the TV, but it was a fantastic way of bringing it all in on budget, and getting some amazing freebies. However, if you ever get the choice to be televised over something like this... my advise would be, don't do it! :)
@@harrykeble1778 You did well, so rather just be grateful it all came out so well. Understandable to use their promotion stuff. Sorry if I criticized ignorantly.
Wow The place looks great!
You dont sand the floors and install a kitchen untill after the scraping and painting of the walls has been completed.
Well done, Jane! A monumental effort to get there. What a shame Richard couldn't be more supportive. Complaining about moving in when there was still a bit left to do! How about you contribute for a change? I'm surprised George didn't give him some home truths.
It is nice they want to retain the original plaster. My house is only 100 years old and I restored the plaster after removing 2-3 layers of painted wallpaper from all of the walls and ceilings. Most people tear the plaster down and put up drywall. The waviness and imperfections in the plaster add character. This is a beautiful old house. Hard to believe it was just a hunting lodge.
I absolutely love the end result. Would you kindly tell us the colors of the kitchen on the walls and cabinets. I love the colors and the view and the cabinets. The Octagon rooms are amazing.
What a mean spirited husband
What a beautiful home and the garden as a Gardner I would love to come and design I work for the parks and gardens I’m also a florist and worked in a stately home in the gardens its self Walton Hall in Cheshire xx
Hello Wendy, If you're serious please get in touch :)
cette femme est une vraie femme ; bravo madame
Feel sorry for Jane struggling when her husband seemingly is of no use at all. She's a novice & needed support.
I vote for the little kid to be a site manager, “I have a bad feeling about this.” 😉 perspicacious little dude!
Given Jane’s purported lack of experience she did an amazing job, but it might actually have been cheaper, and very likely much more efficient and timely, to hire a project manager for all of the early stages until she got to the decoration. However given the made for TV drama that Jane described in another post now I see how everything was exaggerated in terms of filming. too bad about the falling out with the joiner , Another aspect or no question given the heightened dramatic requirements of the show. He seemed like a nice chap, but having all the trades there at once looked chaotic, and once again I think this was made for TV and not the reality.
I don’t understand why her husband was pushing to move in and determined that it be finished, but so hands off. instead he seemed to relentlessly pressure his wife. Now, I understand it’s a TV show and they highlighted, or more accurately the producers concocted, the drama.
It must’ve been highly distressing for the whole family to have to play a role in order to gain the products promised by the TV company. I was wondering about using the premade lime plaster and now I understand that that was given at a huge discount. Same for the bed.
They always play up the drama with these programs. It’s ALWAYS the: “it’s going to be beautiful but I have X, Y, and Z concerns it won’t get done.” It’s tv; what can one say?
P.S., I loved that kid’s delivery of, “I have a bad feeling about this!” line too. He was brilliant! The Harry Potter Production team should have hired him to deliver that line just before the Battle of Hogwart’s Castle.
Yup. Have a "man" managing the project and tye woman decorating... Disgusting the amount of sexism here and in the episode.
Jane did a marvellous job.....and included her children on top, learning so fast ! Hope she made sure to reserve herself a decent fee for all the hours she put in as a project manager. He did not do a thing, kept pushing her to do more and talked in terms of "I" instead of 'we'. Lucky for Jane she has this video to proof it. I don't expect the relationship will last, I recognized her facial expressions, but he will keep the house for sure. Thank goodness she chose the limeplaster ! Cement would have been desastrous for the moisture regulation of the walls and causes the timber to invite woodwurm and fungus after some years. Historic brickwork always needs limeplaster to breath. Beautiful restauration, nice program !
It seems the program is the exact same show with just different people. Nothing changes except the people and project - all the drama - NO DIFFERENT.
Jane is very brave.The end result is totally worth the commitment they showed to the use of traditional building materials.I hope all goes well with the sale of their vacated property.
Thanks :)
Thank you. Loved the family and your show.
Great job Jane!
Can we agree that this lady is/was incredibly naive? To take on the role of Project Mgr & simply allow the tradesmen to come by when they feel like it only results in disaster. A good Proj Mgr is constantly on top of the builders & vendors.
I hope you read my general comment above. You're right. Its just a formulaic show....but had I known that and that I'd be made to lie....I would not have agreed to the filming.
Renovating a home is difficult for any couple. Being in essence the only person actively working on a renovation project. Jane tended to her family needs and a husband who should be providing some form of support instead of acting like a spoiled child. The lady deserves an award for not tossing her husband off a cliff.
Bless them and there home
I saw this beautiful house in air bnb
I'm of two minds: 1) Without a serious lottery win behind me, I would never take on a project like this, 2) Without people who ARE willing to give it their all, these houses would be lost forever. Some homes will be saved and some won't. Clare, Sydney
Very nice and funny on being stuck in bed slats
Love this show addicting
Jane is clearly struggling. Why isn’t her husband helping around with the managing? I know he has a job but his wife needs some help!
Jane was not struggling at all. This is a television show that desires drama above reality.
Well done Jane. Congratulations to all you've achieved. Richard, you were most disappointing, honestly, a Pratt.
He worked Full Time.. probably Overtime to pay for the project.
@@RandomHippieCreations he probably did, that is no excuse for his behaviour.
@@lorrainechircop4411 I agree, I’ve just watched this and he came across like a little spoilt brat. No encouragement or words of support for Jane. 🙄
Kind of a dick.
Judging from a snippets of edited video,he was jokingly asking for the switch and it's not true that he did not say any word of encouragement to his wife he did praise Jane,and in all fairness Jane reminds of myself as someone who has expensive taste and a bit extravagant that's all.But you cannot judge people based on snippets of taping,that is so wrong.
V lovely transformation
This most people’s dream home!
Beautiful house and lands, idyllic. Hard graft but great buy in the long run
Awesome job Jean!
Thanks.
how lovely
George Clarke is FIT!!!!
Sadly, was.
George loves his collars now doesn’t he? :)
I verym6
I very munch enjoy binging on this British version of American DIY programs (I find it educational in terms of vocabulary and practical knowledge as I've been a general contractor. The production factor is a necessity for these type of prgrams.
Jane's wife is a bit demanding.
"I won't move in until the whole house is finished"
Well I don't blame her. Number one,her husband wasn't much help. Number two,it's better to get it all done before moving in. Otherwise,it gets put off and put off
Oh my goodness, the debt these folks have taken on is so scary
George looks so young in this.
He was doing this in his school holidays that is why, HeHe
You did save the house .bravi
Quality with quantity included this plans.
8:30 -- I would put off the clearing of the grounds until after the restoration of the house was completed; along with several other desires. Also. Why always the nearly impossibly short turn around time? 5 months? This should have had a 2 year time table (at least). Additionally the husband is an a-hole.
"Capability Brown." What a perfect name.
tons of free wood to be used in the building, now that makes sense for a budget
I knew a guy that worked in local government. He had a similar sized house. Planning Officer!
A bit like Hoskins. The dodgy Planning Officer in Blott on the Landscape by Tom Sharpe.
Well this guy was a child protection social worker...for a totally different authority.
19/08 /2021 ..I'm back .... the flashing still hanging out of the walls .... tells me this had verandas most of the way around ..... yes ?
Richard needs to take some of that money and buy a personality.
spoiled rich boy????
Fantastic house, but painful to watch the project management
Yeah, i've never seen the walls finished and then call in the plumber and electrician.
@@MegaJohnson12 I hope you read my general response above. I can assure you the plumbers and electricians had their first fix completed before the lime plaster went up!
@@harrykeble1778 Wait... Isn't Harry the little kid in the family?
Richard has no appreciation for all the work Jane has done. He is a politician at heart.
I agree with you on the second part. However perhaps he did appreciate all the work Jane did. It meant he didn't have to!
@@midgie4410 I hope you are correct.
40:37 You can see in her eyes how she loathes him even talking about the decor, when she did all the work and he didn't lift a finger the entire project.
You really can! She is ticked off. The kids and grandkids might enjoy the house, but I wonder how long he will before she boots him out?
They chop and edit these programmes shamelessly. People who have been on Sarah Beeny's show say that they film you and tell you to stand and nod (sometimes you can tell people are nodding with no expression on their faces). Then Sarah comes and says things to nobody and they splice in the nods. Sometimes they show people nodding 'agreement' to some suggestion of Beeny's, and they never heard a word of it or it was suggested long after the possibility to do it. Then the narration says they refused her advice and went on with their own plan. So everyone shouting at the screen, 'Listen to Beeny!' have been totally manipulated.
They film you at different moments then splice together your expressions to fit the narrative. If you're looking worried about your mum, they film you on the phone to her and then narrate a frantic call to the bank to get needed funding.
would like to see the outside finished, it looks tired and in need of some love
Here's a hint make house water tight first, then fix the interior up, before tackling landscaping, finishings, fine furniture etc.
My self I use others cast offs found on the internet sites like Facebook market place, heaps of once expensive tiles, taps, sinks, toilets, plaster board, windows doors etc etc for free! Amazing that some turn there noses up but they are the very folks who want it all gone by the end of the week end.
Only this week a 20 Mt by 15 my shed was up for grabs before it got bulldozed next month you disassemble and take away. Roof 😁 build inside after it up. Save thousands. But here she is off getting bespoke curtains wth or shopping for stuff while over drawn it a throw away world people from isolation to drainage free or cheap as.
It needs travelling to go and get it though...and muscle power to load roofparts and complete sheds to be removed within a week....and a big remorque and a diesel van and all that....not as easy for her alone with two kids as it is within your life probably. I agree that he could have done it in the evenings and weekends. Or do it together.....
I love the 18th century. This restoration will be really nice . " La ménagerie Royale de Versailles" was a place the Royal families would keep very exotic animals. I would like to know if in the 18th century, this place was of the estate ?
There is a reason the knowledgeable wiser local gentry took a pass buying this. Without this show’s help, forget it. Plus, the maintenance and upkeep later?
Why the dead line is always on christmas?
Paola Gutiérrez the Christmas deadline drives me crazy! It’s always an unrealistic goal and crazy romantic .... ugg
I know right? Christmas time is already busy enough as it is. I sure wouldn't want to be moving on top of getting ready for the holidays.
Because it's a magical time of year
I love it’s name
These pommy tradies are like little kids acting up when no ones home. Wouldn't last in Australia
That’s why tradies from Australia never have trouble finding work there
I once employed an Antipodean plumber. He installed the toilet upside down.
Jane was paying these guys, and they have the gall to criticize her? They must not have needed the employment. If they had done a good job, the value of the advertising on nation-wide TV would have been priceless. After watching their whining, I wouldn't hire them if I lived there.
The architecture of this house is lovely, but this show gave me a migraine.
George, the 'architect', is always amping up the tension offering very little help until it's late in the game and the very nice lady is clueless when it comes to supervision & the husband is out to lunch.
I suspect the initial craftsmen/laborers gave up in frustration with her lack of focus.
The result is very ordinary when it could have been splendid without spending more .
Some day someone with a high level of taste will make it really beautiful and restore the landscape to what it should be..
@@Megan-nr7xe George is very good at adding tension - perhaps that is what he thinks will add to the ratings.
George plays the dual role of financier and inspector; the most despised (and feared) people involved in construction...except for the "meth-heads" who show up to work...
That husband is so disrespectful towards his wife. She is working day and night on their new house, selling their old house, and raising their child. He is so unappreciative of his wife's hard work. "I won't move into an unfinished house." Alright, then roll up your sleeves and help out, you spoiled brat. Sure, you got a job. So has your wife, with everything she does.
