    The final property is a great choice it has got modern dimensions, so most things like windows etc are straight off the shelf and there's no worry from planners when it comes to kerbside aesthetics. I have no idea on what price you would be paying in the end, but to me it's the no-brainer. Also family on the doorstep is always a winner. 👊👍❤

    Hey Nicky and Harri, this is your American friend from Swansboro North Carolina again. After seeing all the problems with #1 and seeing #2 as a possibility I hope that you were bidding on #3. Loved that house and I think it is perfect for your master craftsmanship skills to turn it into something really special. Love you guys and your site and am looking forward to seeing you in 2 weeks with the final results. Have a lovely two weeks and Happy Easter.

    Can't wait to see you guys jump into another project! And you're so right about the importance of off Street parking - especially with properties in those price brackets 👍🏻 that last house needs a garden room at the end of the garden! 🍻

    Hi Nicky and Harri! Great video, love the cliffhanger! 😂 The Berkshire property is amazing; your ROI with that back garden would be fantastic once your renovations are completed. Whichever property you end up with, I know you will be up for the challenge! So looking forward to the next video, thanks for sharing the adventure!

    That white render always turns a mouldy shade of green, or even black on busier roads, after a few years. take a look at any modern block of flats built in the last 5 or 10 years for examples.
    A recent structural survey likely means someone made an offer, then pulled out after spending money on it.
    The 'do not use' tape on the toilet and sinks = signs of a repossession sale by the previous lenders.

    On the kurb appeal as an architect imo I’d say keep it in style with the property If you want to change the tiles yeah go for it but do a period style like you showed and pls don’t get rid of brick wall perhaps heighten it with metal detail fencing get some reclaimed brick and build larger wall or heighten

    I was just thinking about the rendering that you are considering.... But have you seen repointed brickwork? It can look really fresh on the right brickwork.... the rendered property has a big bit on the front. It is nice when there are a few that look the same though. I wonder which one you are having?

    • @NickyandHarri
      @NickyandHarri  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Yeah definitely something we’ll consider- the rendering was just a bit of a thought process and is just an idea up for grabs atm! 👍🏻

    Take the advice on the bulging wall issue with a pinch of salt. It’s likely historical movement and not a recent big issue, which is why the estate agent deemed it mortgageable. Any builder you ask will likely tell you it needs full rebuild as it’s more ££ for them

  • @Christopher_T_Paul
    @Christopher_T_Paul Před 2 měsíci

    I think you are overthinking that gable wall. I bet a specialist can repair that by realligning the bricks and using specialist wall ties to put the strength back in the wall. You will get a good finish, but personally I would get a nice monocouche render throughout to make it all look uniform.
    I would be more concerned about the cost of windows and the roof, not to mention the chimneys, personally I would just take them all away, they are more trouble than their worth.

    • @NickyandHarri

  • @Bumsonabudget
    @Bumsonabudget Před 2 měsíci +1

    If you render it using cement render it could mean that the house ends up getting really damp inside because it can't breathe and then the render falls off and looks shit in 20 years. Also the white one looks chavvy not quaint like the red brick one. Don't put a modern spin on this house it deserves better.
