Grand Designs is such a great show. 95% of the time it’s just rich people pissing their fortune up the wall on vanity projects. But every once in a while you get a little gem like this one.
I would say it's more like 60/70% of the project that are over the top. And some are in the middle, a bit of vanity but they also put every bit of money they have in it.
I watch it on TH-cam and just look for the ones with people on a low budget.
This needs to happen way more. They schedule a building and then we all have to watch it crumble as hardly anybody has the cash. Imagine being able to spend what you'd spend on an average house on this absolutely beautiful home! Amazing.
This couple have worked miracles. They have actually done the hard graft.
I love this project. I cannot imagine a more perfect answer to this no win project.
Grans designs is the best of the best home building shows
I live for these..from when I moved abroad I ve been missing British programs...your uploads keep us going..cheers
Me too
It’s beautiful! They accomplished the impossible on an impossibly small budget. I would never leave ❤️
'Tiny budget renovates ruins' is what your were TRYING to do there.
I know, right! It's a sad day when channel 4 does clickbait!
NOPE it's both grammatically correct, and playful, and got most of you nosey people to click and watch.
'You nosey people'? Like you, who is also here to be 'nosey'. Content is there to be viewed. Clickbait is defined as content with a purposelessly misleading title to gain clicks- that's what this is.
@@bellareid3488 I meannnnn, clickbait is aimed at nosey peeps, that's just what it is.
Shockingly unusual but strangely wonderful at the same time. The interior looks very comfortable nevertheless 👍
Is the title of this video intentionally click-baity? I can't be the only person who thought that the renovation was going to be ruined by the tiny budget?
Absolutely did! Glad to see I was wrong, but yeah.
Funny how you're pissed off that you didn't see a ruin ruined 🙄
Says a lot about how the failure of the episode to match your interpretation of the title matters so much lol
@@Zaihanisme Funny how you assume I'm pissed off about it. I thought it was great!I was just totally confused by the usage of the noun "ruins" where it read like a verb. Seems like lots of other people had the same experience.
I think it's more of the lack of punctuation; TINY Budget: Ruins Renovation is how it should read I think since the focus is on a small budget
The picture shows a ruin so I knew it would be a ruin renovation
Stunning 😍 In the Peak District I often pass buildings like this and have that same romanticism and desire to rebuild.
Truly in awe of this place. It’s beautiful. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Wow, a beautiful home on a beautiful piece of land.
300k my arse !
This is what is achievable when you put hard work into something. Very very well done!
And 300000
Absolutely creative and respectful.
That's a brilliant idea! 😍
The best renovation i've seen on Grand Design. My idea of heaven for location too!
A fabulous renovation and very creative,this young couple are so talented.
Stunning job - well done all! Am mightily relieved that the third word in the title turned out to be a noun rather than the verb I originally thought!!!
They seem so kind and peaceful.
Brilliant build, but the furnishings look so uncomfortable. But the ruin was saved and improved so that is just amazing.
Just what I thought! The furniture doesn't encourage anyone to sit for long!
Well it wasn’t saved. They had to knock it down and rebuild it.
@@Mpayne1472 well you wouldn’t be able to live there otherwise, it’s not save. It’s better than leaving it to crumble and ruin until there’s nothing left.
@@rachelcookie321 that’s essentially what happened
@@Mpayne1472 it’s the same bricks and they rebuilt it to how it looked. It’s not perfect but it still conserves it. Better than leaving it to rot away and be forgotten.
love this project & its outcome! My one concern is how they've dealt with the possibility of the mill race flooding in winter/spring months since the house is built so close to it.
Its basically a new built house using reclaimed stone from the old buildings Its not really preserved the old building but replaced it
It’s built on practically the same footprint.
I was hoping they would restore the old structure
@@tonyhussey3610 they couldn’t
Wonderful, creative response to a ruined stone structure. Very responsive to the beautiful setting. And on such a modest budget. Inspiring.
It’s not structurally sound. You would have to take it down and rebuild it to make sure it’s safe.
Great craftsmanship! Superb!
Absolutely creative and truely amazing
Although I like the house I really didn't understand the fact they remade a fake ruin around it as if it had not been demolished, it seemed to make zero conservation sense.
Yea, I'm confused. So they did tear it down then? And then rebuilt it? And is it a monument?
@@thinking7667 Yes they basically tore it down, build a modern house then wrapped the old stone around the new house to make it look like it had always been like that. It makes absolutely no 'conservation' sense at all, it's like a Disney castle.
We owe a debt of gratitude to this young couple and their visionary project in saving this a class ruin. Its uplifting, incredible.
There's no kitchen!
@@ruthhuxter2131 Says who?
Well done you two. What you have achieved is a home of beauty. The finished product moved me to tears. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
@@ruthhuxter2131 Give them a chance!
I preferred the ruin, people with no taste destroying history
Super architecture. Old and new in one house.
Me parece una bonita reconstrucción, imaginativa y valiente. 👌 👍 🇪🇸
Beautiful! Well done.
Nice result, though the lead flashing looks dreadful
Think the title is a tad misleading
using the term renovation is stretching it a bit. well, a lot.
Superb restauration. Great Design. 👍🏾😎
Tiny budget is 300,000 hehe ok.. I guess my idea of a tiny budget is a bit different..
"disneyfied" what a nice word that I will add to my collection
What an AMAZING transformation!
They have achieved something amazing beams should have left alone no paint but it’s a personal choice
Looks like they both aged 10 years in the process. Must have been a stressful build
Amazing job, especially considering the budget. I wonder what it would be if their time was factored in.
It's beautiful and I admire their fortitude, but the FLOOD is only a matter of when.
wat a fantastic project!
This is an amazing project, very well designed in- and exterior!
From the title "TINY Budget Ruins Renovation" I thought that it was the tiny budget that ruined this renovation :) I thought that was a bit cruel.
Amazing project!
Amazing project, truly inspiring! I wonder how much it would have cost if they had done it all in stone?
absolutely stunning-i can watch these shows for days on
why not show the whole building instead of showing one room
Then it would be obvious that they demolished the ruin and just repurposed the stones.
A gorgeous build, despite the paint choices. The integration into the site is clouded, though...
What a mess, makes IKEA look good.
I just hope for them they never get a flooding with that stream a few feet away 🥴 nothing for me really, i would keet that stream as far as possible 😬😬😬😬😬
How? Ask it to meander in a different direction?
I wonder if that river floods? It'd be a shame to see the house underwater. They've created something truly beautiful.
I wish next life i would have a stone n wood home by the water body..
Title says renovation, i see no renovation
I call bullshit on their £300k budget. The glazing alone looks like 50 grand. When Kevin Mcloud says "super-cheap, impossible cheap," you can take that literally.
Just absurd that a long forgotten ruin like that needs permission from the Secy of State to renovate. Beautiful though.
All the old monuments are taken down, and then build back up with the same stones! how is this preservation? you didn't preserve anything, every sense of history and place is lost. Its like sending your favorite dog to a taxidermist to get an "renovation"
A better title would have been: TINY Budget Renovates Ruins
Ruined the entire landscape
Nice, but streams do flood occasionally, just saying.
Incredible
What a weird video title, a type of clickbait I guess - Tiny budget RUINS renovation. Actually - Tiny budget, ruin renovation.
Great result by the way.
Nice
Reminded me of a movie, forgot which one it was, it envisioned a woman getting an escape far from home to meet her lover..
From the title, I thought they messed up the renovation because of 'ruins'. So for the whole video i was expecting something to go wrong
They not only saved it, they improved it.
They didn’t save it. They had to knock it down and build something with that pile of stone
Will it flood?
I looove this but are they not worried about flood risks? Might be a dumb question but hey ho
WOW
Oh, I see. I thought that thumbnail was a bit cruel about Kevin McCloud...
The way the title is written makes it sound like the small budget “ruined” the restoration. Odd phrasing.
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes.
Klasa !!
👏👏👏
How rich are these people?
This episode is too short...
Since when is £300k a tiny budget?
For that large of a house, it is.
It's about time this ancient wreck was renovated but to be honest, I can't see any difference and he sounds just the same.
Lol
My god, they massacred this building. From old and traditional to 'trendy' and rootless.
It would've made better sense (and cheaper) to have completely restored the building as it would've appeared originally- using the exact same (exterior) materials. This would make the building fit in to it's environment a great deal more than what we have here.
What we have now however is the consequence of overcautious 'conservation' and pedantic National park bureaucracy.
Hideous.
No chance in hell it would have been cheaper.
If you watch the end of the video he's seriously impressed it only cost £1,000 a square metre.
A serious about the uber rich
does anyone realize that this is cgi?
"This is not the building I or I suspect you expected to see..."
Well not with a vid titled "Tiny budget ruins renovation", no
So they made it ugly, way to go . . . .
Makes a great change from people building ugly insensitive concrete carbuncles in the countryside. Far too big though.
Nice play on words in the title.
Really small budget spent wastefully on garbage that kills people.
((Watches video))
Wonderful couple build beautiful home.
I'm wondering why often the people seem so unhappy when they present the result.
LMAO ... tiny budget of a quarter of a million quid!!!
For that large of a house, it is.
Fantastic, but spoilt by Kevin the knob voice over
This episode had the most awkward conversations.
And I can’t believe they were so naive to think that stone could be preserved.
The end result was ok but felt a bit lack lustre. The ikea interior design was utter garbage
Kevin Mcloud is an architectural poet and a national treasure. One of the best programmes on television, thank you Channel 4.
Strange title. Not sure if I like this renovation. I have a passion for old ruins, it seems to have disappeared , taking down and putting up perfection is not conservation of a listed building. But they like it and they gave permission for them to do it. So listing it was without purpose if you think about it.
Pucàw'
Seems like listing it probably dropped the price massively when they came to buy it. So if anything, listing it probably actually doomed it even more. As ghe only people that may have bought it other than this couple would have been English heritage or similar, with no one probably committing enough to prevent it falling down further.
it was deemed unsafe to build with the original structure and so they were ordered to pull it down and build it up again
I agree. nothing of it's old beauty remains. it looks just like a new building
Qué horror
That's quite the job. It looks better than I expected
I would be worried about the river level
Absolutely gorgeous and quite ingenious
I am confused. How does demolition and a new build with the stones equal renovation? If I demolished my garden shed, but reused the door and hinges, is that renovated?
An interesting project, but unfortunately it has destroyed the character of the site. The romantic ruin has been replaced with an over-large structure that dominates the stream in a way that the original buildings never did. No doubt the timber cladding will settle down as it ages, but it will always be shouting "look at me". It looks more like a building that, to misquote Dickens, "crept into the valley as a young warehouse, and couldn't find its way out again".
I think that I would have preferred to see the structure slowly decay, eventually leaving a few piles of fern covered stone in a truly magical setting. After all, this project has not really preserved anything but the footprint of the original building, what has been lost is much greater.
Heaven on earth! Unbelievable, well done to you both
Simply beautiful
God damn what a dream home. Every time i pass a derelict building or ruin here where i live i have the same thoughts and dreams. One day.
Very ambitious and looks great but one flaw there in Cumbria one of the most wet and damp parts of the country and they've used wood oh well hope they have the money to renovate every 10-20 years
These projects are fantastic and interesting.
Stunning! As for the cost I guess a lot of people get carried away with expensive kitchen and stuff. This couple kept it simple and it seems. I love the space in this house.
