Wilbaston Cottage: Wash House Becomes Therapy Studio | Dream Home Rescue | S1 E10

Discover how transforming an empty, neglected property can unlock your dream home - and save you money in the process! Could a fixer-upper be your perfect family retreat? In this episode, we follow Martin and Angela as they explore two vacant houses brimming with potential. With a budget of £350,000, they’re searching for a characterful home in a semi-rural setting, complete with space for Angela’s holistic therapy practice. Watch as they tour a charming Wilbaston cottage with extension possibilities and an old wash house ideal for a garden studio, as well as a historic cottage in need of a total renovation. Along the way, we share expert tips on spotting hidden gems, estimating renovation costs, and working with architects to maximize both space and value. You’ll also hear inspiring real-life stories from families who turned derelict houses into unique, cherished homes - often for much less than buying new. Whether you’re dreaming of a countryside escape or looking for renovation inspiration, this video is packed with advice on buying empty properties, budgeting for improvements, and creating a home that’s truly your own. #PropertyRenovation #EmptyHomes #DreamHome #HouseHunting #HomeMakeover #FixerUpper #RenovationJourney #FamilyHome
