🙋🏽♂️🙋🏼♀️ Hey guys hope you enjoy looking around this £500,000 property. Although the properties we tour are usually in a higher price bracket, we thought you may be interested to see what you can buy in this price range. We apologize in advance for the audio, we filmed this one a while ago and our microphones have improved since. There were a lot of echos in the house and we’re still trying to work out the best settings to film in. Comment below what you think of the property!
This is in a way better as is more realistic to most people budget and it shows even £500k can get a luxury property. Would definitely make people move out of London! For someone to live a over £1m property, you got to have much more especially to upkeep the property with its bills.
Yep, you would have flipped the ultility room into a snug or office, sectioned off a 3x2.66 of the "lounge" into a utility, create another snug at the back, maybe even stolen some of the garage for the utility instead.
Too big utility room and tiny lounge space. Also bathroom far too big and rooms too small considering the size of the house. Didn’t like the two tone downstairs floor. Poor interior designing and tacky! Wooden doors don’t look nice in such a modern house.
Lovely renovation but dreadful use of space on the downstairs. The garage is pointless, the utility room is huge and the lounge is tiny. The echoes in the kitchen ruin it too. Such a shame.
Great video and walkaround! My thoughts (feel free to ignore lol)....It’s a shame the two tone tile flooring is different size tiles which don’t line up. Also the brown tiles should have ended around the island not half way through. The living room is too narrow - and in the open plan kitchen you walk past the TV to get to the kitchen. Very annoying in real life use lol. The owners have tried to go for the open plan kitchen/diner/lounge with separate lounge But tbh the space is too small and laid out poorly. The utility room should have been the second lounge. And the narrow lounge wall should’ve been knocked through to the open plan Kitchen/diner.
Also only one oven - doesn’t really work for families these days. Most buyers look for 2 ovens minimum for the lifestyle that goes with open plan kitchen area etc. The owner could have fit a combination oven/microwave
The 2nd living area should be a utility which might be hard to do but just be better and more functional. The utility should definitely be a second living as it’s more private and separate from the rest of the living space.
Totally agree with you. Nice reno but really not a lot of thought put into the functionality of each room. A lot of awkward spaces which don’t serve their stated purpose effectively. Poor flow and wasted space. They should have involved an architect for more than just drawings/planning (and if they did they need a refund!)... but then again, if it has just been done for a flip, the owner probably isn’t too concerned about that.
She did say in the video that the owner chose to have a separate living area though it is meant to be an open plan kitchen/living space but having said that I do agree the space isn't utilised well.
That garage is wasted space because it's too small to park a car and will only end up as a junk room. It's a better use of space to incorporate it into the internal living space.
Theola Marshall-Bernard Yes, but then where would you put the junk? Like it or not, families have clutter- bikes, camping stuff, tools, lawn mowers etc.
Your right. Ensuite is way too big. When you put the wardrobes in any of the bedrooms there is hardly any space to move. Don't need such a big utility room, could have made more of the space downstairs as wall.
Nice house, but I’m not keen on the flooring. Renovations often feature hard, shiny tiled floors. If this house was abroad I could see why, however, in the UK they are just too cold and hard for most families to enjoy. I think an engineered wooden floor would have been better throughout.
Looks very attractive and great in a magazine. But I think it’s not well laid out for day to day living. Having said that, it’s a vast improvement compared to the original house.
The overall layout is nice, and I love the garden. I think the ground floor design would have been better with a larger garage and one large main living space, instead of two lounge areas. The utility room could be smaller, and the extra space used to reposition the ground floor bathroom, providing more space for a larger garage.
Oh my word!! If I lived around this neck of the woods still I would totally go and view this property. I moved to Wiltshire and my house was £450,000 and it is a third of this house!!! 😆 great video guys. Please do more houses around this price bracket or a bit lower 😃
Beautiful design but the master bathroom has a flaw that a woman cannot overlook. The mirror in the ensuite is too small for the size of the sink, moreover it is not centered over the sink and cannot be because of the design
Decent size porch, love the doors throughout. A great fridge/freezer at last. This is a real bug-bear of mine regarding bathrooms which are perfectly sized to hold both a bath tub and shower stall yet only contain a huge shower! Unless you enjoy getting jiggy with your partner under a shower spray, and two or three others, (I'm not judging, each to their own), then pop a bath tub in too. The utility room is bigger than my kitchen! One thing I did notice is the traffic noise. Whoever uses the front of house bedroom either won't have an issue with traffic roaring past or ear-plugs will be the order of the day. The 'formal lounge' is minute unless you all enjoy sitting side by side. The garden has potential though.
Recieving £35,550 is what I never expected, all thanks to Mr nicholas on in Instagram @nicholas__fxtrade who put smile on my face through Bitcoin investments.
It really bothers me that the island does not line up with worksurface along wall in kitchen. Also the flooring beside the right hand of island is suddenly different to kitchen are.
Really nice house in an affordable price range. The garden is well kept and the woodwork on the sides of garden really lifts the entire house up. Being a desi will never put the fridge in that nook or my parents will never forgive me. It is always nice to see a charging station in the kitchen island. I mean what else are you supposed to do while eating. Love the first-floor foyer. That master bed ceiling really is so high. All in all, a good property.
Descent 4 bedroom property 500k , only thing I would do is have internal door to garage from hallway and put some eye height kitchen cabinets.. overall nice property ❤
Such a polish video-well done guys! Thanks for putting the measurements in and Summer is getting better and better with the technical details. The house looks amazing consider that price- especially how those little detail that Matt mention with bath tub-the trim around it. Only 1 thing-does the kitchen has glass splashback? Depending how many people live, may be even better if the family room open it up with the open plan kitchen/living so can actually put a 4 seater sofa. This video ticks everything needed for a luxury property tour and if I am looking something like this, it will certainly make me put an offer!
Hi Matt & Summer, A great property tour, thank you for sharing this house with us, would also like to see some houses with 5 bedrooms and a larger rear garden so that a very good sized office or printing studio could be built, is that something you would consider showing us on your channel, Please
I never understood why bother with a garage if it can only accommodate a small car on a family sized house. It’ll never be used, just as a dumping ground, when it could have made useful space inside the house, since it’s already inter grated.
I like the facade. Its more contemporary than the usual UK designs. The floor plan, not so much. I agree with many of the comments on here regarding rooms sizes, etc. Also, the large (possibly 600mm) shiny floor tiles look really flashy and nice, BUT, from others who have had these tiles in their own homes, they are impossible to keep clean. I also know some one who slipped and fractured a hip on similar tiles. The laundry room is a huge waste of space. I understand the logic of allocating that room (plumbing already available) but it could have been much better. Maybe more surface area, cupboards, use the redundant fridge cavity as a drying cupboard? Use of a partition wall to create a WIL (walk in linen). Agreed about the waste of space in the ensuites. I have a soaker tub in my ensuite which I frequently utilise. Stick a bath in. It looks better and is a better use of the space.
@DigBick • they have a life to live.. I rather it was all me that brought my first home, I don’t live off “mummy and daddy” like some people in the world
They could have put a large enough beam that seperated the dining room and that 2 living area and made large living area and put dining room where the 1 living area is.
Its a very nice looking house , modern and clean. I don't know why houses in England don't have any cupboard space in the bedrooms though. What is the interest rate there? and are you required to put a deposit down?....greetings from Cape Town.

Would be great if you do a series “half a milli” where you go around the country showing what you can get for £500k
Matt & Summer I live near this house
Can’t believe you guys toured it
I’d love to see more tours of houses within this price bracket! X
This is in a way better as is more realistic to most people budget and it shows even £500k can get a luxury property. Would definitely make people move out of London! For someone to live a over £1m property, you got to have much more especially to upkeep the property with its bills.
This is a house for the minimalist person who likes cooking but hates watching movies, tv and sleeping.
🤣🤣
As a builder I have never seen such a badly designed and waste of space on a house. Everything is poorly designed.
Roger Levy lol
Yep, you would have flipped the ultility room into a snug or office, sectioned off a 3x2.66 of the "lounge" into a utility, create another snug at the back, maybe even stolen some of the garage for the utility instead.
Please where are you based at in 🇬🇧
The kitchen with they tiny “living room “ just floored me 🤯
I love it because I prefer a massive kitchen for entertainment
Too big utility room and tiny lounge space. Also bathroom far too big and rooms too small considering the size of the house. Didn’t like the two tone downstairs floor. Poor interior designing and tacky! Wooden doors don’t look nice in such a modern house.
I agree
Lovely renovation but dreadful use of space on the downstairs. The garage is pointless, the utility room is huge and the lounge is tiny. The echoes in the kitchen ruin it too. Such a shame.
Echo is so overpowering - it's little wonder they've put it up for sale: it would drive you mad!
living room is hilariously tiny compared to the kitchen
Rooms in the uk are generally small and the gardens too. Its so irritating and new homes are the worse
Yes odd layout
@@theriseofyousafzai8779 and imagine paying half a million pound for this too
hmo before
Your channel is basically Love Island meets Homes Under the Hammer. I like it!
Hahahahàaa, Comment of the month
Lmfaooooo thats so trueeee
😆😆🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣
the living room next the kitchen so small ,they should of used that garage as part of the kitchen and have a nice size living room to put luxury sofas

Cute on the outside. But interior and styling is awful, cold and not well developed. Not worth the price imo, especially in such a remote area
She did say in the video that the owner chose to have a separate living area though it is meant to be an open plan kitchen/living space but having said that I do agree the space isn't utilised well.
it is missing the button that mutes the echo in the whole house

Theola Marshall-Bernard Yes, but then where would you put the junk? Like it or not, families have clutter- bikes, camping stuff, tools, lawn mowers etc.
is used for motorbike storage
Love the look of the front door, only problem is that you can't hide from salesmen 😂
Why did the developer make the en suite in bedroom to sooo big? I'd prefer more bedroom space with a smaller en suite
Ifey Home It was probably a bedroom in the old house, and impractical or too expensive to start moving walls.
Your right. Ensuite is way too big. When you put the wardrobes in any of the bedrooms there is hardly any space to move. Don't need such a big utility room, could have made more of the space downstairs as wall.

The garage looks like it could not store anything bigger than a Miata.
Who else is watching without actually wanting to buy a house.
Or just for the sake of watching.
Oh my word!! If I lived around this neck of the woods still I would totally go and view this property. I moved to Wiltshire and my house was £450,000 and it is a third of this house!!! 😆 great video guys. Please do more houses around this price bracket or a bit lower 😃
A THIRD???? They rlly should lol
Renovation is not cheap , but you don’t feel like home sweet home !

This is definitely my type of house, it's not too big just perfect
Lol
Front and back outside is gorgeous but kitchen/ living area makes zero sense.
Recieving £35,550 is what I never expected, all thanks to Mr nicholas on in Instagram @nicholas__fxtrade who put smile on my face through Bitcoin investments.
I’d swap the dining area into the smaller living room next door. The get a big couch next to the kitchen.
10 second in and I want this house
Doesn’t everyone
But the road is so noisy!! And a lot of bedrooms won’t really fit a double bed
It really bothers me that the island does not line up with worksurface along wall in kitchen. Also the flooring beside the right hand of island is suddenly different to kitchen are.

All in all, a good property.
Frankly, the before pictures appeal more.
Beautiful and with natural lights and design is perfect for family
14:00 I think the garden looked better before!
Loving this house already
Such a nice house for quite a low price living it😍😍
a low price????
@@meinkatz34 yeahh that could easily cost £2 million in elmbridge, surrey
tawana mufasa no that’s ridiculous in France it would cost 250 000 that’s it! It’s not a mansion it’s just a basic house
Yeah this would be about £300k in the north... like the real north not Rugby 😂
@@katyallen921 Try even further North in Scotland. You can get near enough a castle for that
I can't even begin to say how much I love this house
Wow love this house! Keep up the quality videos 👍
Glad you liked it and thank you will do!
tasteful colour scheme, not 100% on room design but the main family room looks cool and the doors and flooring is nice also.
This house is Littttt omgg
Really like your channel, and also how you include the house plan and room sizes in the video great stuff👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Thank you!
"...makes this whole space so much brighter." As do Matt's nice white socks 8:37
my guy i was looking for homes and this was my place!!!! so lucky then i got y our channel
Great looking house! 🏠
Thank you 😊
Man, I love it😍 I personally love this house but don’t like the road as I live in dunchurch and drive down here to work. Love the video💙 keep it up!
Please how can you not love this house, the kitchen space is so good 🥰
Thank so much for all your vids! @2:41 what a jump in subs! well done!
Descent 4 bedroom property 500k , only thing I would do is have internal door to garage from hallway and put some eye height kitchen cabinets.. overall nice property ❤
I enjoyed watching the Video Tour. Looks very nice 👍 particularly the Interior design
Nice to meet all the expert architects in the comment section.
Lol
Nice property👍🏻 but busy Rd noise outside,
Good job though on showing us around 😁😁
Thanks Mark much appriciated 👍🏼

obsessed with ur channel
love this house 😍
Asian family would love this kitchen bc when family together they spend most of the time in there
Wow, I really enjoyed this video also I ❤️ the house.
Huge house from kitchen, garden....love your kitchen and the sky light.
Very nice house. Very wide kitchen. Looks nice from front.
Such an amazing property with a great affordable price to what the house has to offer...👀👀gonna take a look
You should try the north east. Half a million gets you a much much bigger house.
I think whoever renovated over did it
Bad investment but amazing outcome
I like the house very stylish and good value for money
Apart from the fridge gap, tiny living room and the tiny windows in the bedroom, its a nice place.
Best affordable beautiful house I’ve ever seen
So quiet you can can hear a pin drop... ten times with the reverb!
I am really old fashioned. I liked some of the “before” photos to the “now” photos.
Nice, I like both
Hi Matt & Summer,
A great property tour, thank you for sharing this house with us, would also like to see some houses with 5 bedrooms and a larger rear garden so that a very good sized office or printing studio could be built, is that something you would consider showing us on your channel, Please
Install a barbeque grill , gas fire pit, chairs and a TV in the patio area .This will enhance the value of the house. what do you reckon ?
Think house is at top end of value you can achieve on that road in Rugby, given it’s a noisy main road. So not sure you’d want to spend more?
uk weather won’t allow that
Excellent video as always 👍🏼
Thanks!
Fantastic house and great video again lads
Nice house, but all that reverb needs sorting out. Softer furnishings and curtains would have sorted this
My favorite one yet
I never understood why bother with a garage if it can only accommodate a small car on a family sized house. It’ll never be used, just as a dumping ground, when it could have made useful space inside the house, since it’s already inter grated.
Can we become friend
Love how this house turns out after the renovation. Could you let me know who the architect is please? Thank you.❤️
Last room with a small window gives me anxiety!
a bit too expensive for this location
What’s the location
Midlands. In my opinion this house is extremely overpriced

Probably move a few things around but amazing property in and out

I like this home so. much, im looking for a home in London 45min from London. and for now im living. in Vienna. I want to move. to London.
thank you so much for your help i really appreciate it
Love this!

Need to buy a lapel mic honestly the road nose hurts my head😂😂
Jo Braine yeah I know now because I’ve watched others but at this time they didn’t
I don’t even live in the uk but I’m heavily contemplating it now cuz of you guys 🤔
lovely flooring throughout the house.. but man the kitchen is too big lounge too small.
Great transformation !
is all the tiled floorings upgrades?
How is this 45 minutes to London ?? I live in Reading and it takes about that time ?

i always like your vedios
Should have added sliding door to formal living are to make more space behind door
Great video
Thanks!
The rooms are too small. The garden is bigger than they rooms put together.
I love this.
