Loved this episode. I know the area very well and this set of Oasts. How beautifully crafted the end result is! Magnificent transformation into a home and preservation of Kent architecture! ❤
Refreshing that the couple chose a cheap wooden balcony decking in order to stay on budget. The amount of these shows where the couples emotionally commit to expensive, high end, imported, difficult to install finishes on seemingly lesser important features of the home, and then wonder why their build is a year delayed and 50% over budget.
They also left the exterior brick alone and did not spend an insane amount of money putting on another exterior, painting it black, or putting in "glass floors" or windows the size of walls. Smart efficient design and it seems the man chose to stay on budget and not waste money
The totally involved and constant presence of the owners definitely helped to propel the project forward - and, bring it in on time. Also, as George pointed out - there was enough space so that the crew had room to do many jobs at once, not having to wait their turn. For once, no agonizing over money! Nice to see a successful rehab, and a continuing presence of the family on the land.
It's Wonderful The 17th century 🦇s we're accommodated in the scheme!! Wonderful!! 🦇👍🏆
beautiful job! and it's a nice change of pace to see a job where the owners are not at their wits end with budget and time issues and they have plenty of workers to get the job done. it looks like the roof was the key to whether they would make the schedule. since it was not that bad, they could stay on schedule. i wonder if they put a dumb waiter in especially since they have a second floor. they should have put an elevator in too. in 10-20 years, they would really appreciate that.
They don't live in it but rent it out for functions and corporate events!

yeah, i saw that when i research what's happened since the build. i wonder if they always meant to do that.. i guess with their kids grown, they just didnt need all of that space. it makes more sense to use it as a rental anyway.
@@persebra at the end of programme there was a sign at the end of the drive with a property company logo, that company is either owned or run by both of them.
Wonderful show, beautiful work, bravo. Thank you for the upload.
Agreed: Dramatic, beautiful and sustainable.
Brilliant and clever in managing the budget and finishing the project on time🤞🙌👏
He kept being surprised by how smoothly and quickly it all went.
Like he doesn't know the rule, "You can do anything if you throw enough money at it."😂
I found it all quite silly, really.
what a difference it is when the owners have the money
One of my favorite episodes!!!♥️
How sad he couldn't keep his original family home but at least he seems to be able to access it.
Great organisation and planning always wins and seems he still wears the trousers which is also nice but unusual.
Amazing!!!!!!!
Wow nice!
At the start when the lady told she liked to have a modern home I thought all original details and the atmosphere of the building would get lost.
Was I wrong! the end result is a warm welcoming place with enough details of the original function left, and even the very large living diner room doesn't feel like an office building restaurant.
Only the 9 bedrooms seem a bit overdone to me, but I looked it up and it's now used as a luxury group accommodation, so the couple isn't living there by themselves anymore?
So interesting. Love the history behind the restorations. Thomas NC, USA
Why would you want 9 bedrooms with on suit bathrooms unless you are going to trun it as a guest house
That's exactly what they did! This was never going to be a family home!!
As soon as I saw the ‘fire exit’ sign over the front door in the finished house I thought they weren’t going to be living in it.
National Trust in UK owns many beautiful old historic buildings used as hotels or b&bs - George mentioned the couple plans for 7 bedrooms & baths to be used for visiting family, friends, possibly business associates?
Can anyone please provide me the link of the instrumental music being played in the background. ??
Lovely historical elements, and a very enjoyable episode to watch, but after noticing the fire exit sign above the front door in the final show around, had a little google and was a bit disappointed to discover that the restoration project billed as a “family home” is in fact a holiday let that goes for £7k a week! That might explain the plain decor and finishes..no steel and glass kitchen for Lois then.. I suppose it’s nice that lots of people get to enjoy this building now, but it rather ruins the story a bit! Still, a good episode and a few nice ideas.
Even if that £7k is meant to lodge up to 42 people, not a choice for the budget conscious.
Also found it curious that it wasn’t mentioned at all that this property was apparently restored as a holiday let. Guess that having 9 bedrooms, all with baths should have been a clue. However, needs must, and this oast house was lovely. Bats and all.
Coming in on budget and time. Probably used to old money?
If the building is on private property and is not a listed building, why did they have to get Planning input about the wind mills?
Beautiful, but could do with more plants. books and art work.
Swimming pool in England?
It's a hotel not a private home!
🥶
2:38 - they were given to the national trust in lieu of what?
The family.
They said "Death Duties".
@@mattneillninasmom Thank you! What does that mean exactly?
Typical English humor "as easy as buying a tame whale"
Ha :D
What about the bat waste 😟😛
The commentator never see help them, even helping to build or help to buy some material or helping in budget, Need appreciation from local government for people that willing to restore old building but in economic better build the new one rather restored actually the appearance still old versions. Old building its hard to maintenance for keeping safe. They are aging.
Fantastic restoration, but why spend all that money and not hire a professional decorator? To me, that was a very bad decision. Sorry Lois, but you missed out on an opportunity to make it "Jaw Dropping". It's still not too late..."Hire a professional decorator"!! Trust me. It's worth every penny.
Pity the place is so neutral ! A bit like the personality of the woman ... No real style, it just looks like a first page glossy magazine.
No library, nothing. Everything so bland its amazing in fact that they even managed to blow GBP 628K on that !
Yes, I totally agree.
Why didn’t they replace the whole roof? This guy is loaded!
The massive second coincidently water because c-clamp dentsply examine barring a spotless great-grandmother. mean, maddening whale
It’s unsanitary for humans to live with bat feces in their own home! At least charge them rent?
