    Did the husband not get his own room like a bar or snooker room, seems only fair.

    That extension is just too barn/shedlike beside the house, for me...

    I've very mixed feelings about this one.

    I think the charm has been taken away and never replaced. The life has been stripped out of it.

    I'd love a balcony for drinking cans on of a summers day. Would be my number 1 request on any build I'm involved in.

    Outside the door with a beer, sitting in a "Popes" chair and watching the waves will have to be good enough AD!!....:D

    He got two lines in this episode and he fúcked up one of them. He's lucky he's allowed live there with her I'd imagine.


    First bill was €200. It's the summer. Wait till the winter bills come in with them single glazed windows and your glass atrium.

    Thank God I don't mix in SoCoDu supper club circles. Imagine sitting beside this one for an evening boasting about her walk in wardrobe, geothermal whatever, and her posh guest bathroom

    Nope, don't like it at all. Usually.I.can find something I like but not with this. Extension is just too barn like with a glass box.
    Not very.child friendly at all.

    lol, exactly my thoughts.

    Says a lot about the woman of the house wanting the downstairs for visitors to be better than the upstairs. Unbearable. . .

    They should have brought back an old teacher or student from the school at the end.

    I think this is the first job on RtI that I'm seriously dubious about. Really think that they borderline ruined the original building, and I just can't see the attraction of the finished product.

    They have three kids.

    And to whoever said it earlier, the bedroom does have curtains!

    This one is a thumbs down from me, I'm afraid - on a lot of fronts.

    Yeah, it's totally lacking in any soul or personality.

    I think they have murdered "The Old School House".....

    It's only my opinion.....they kept little or nothing of the "atmosphere" of the house.

    It's a fancy pad to be proud of nevertheless.

    I'm still perplexed as to how the "listed" building got PP.....

    That would have been a great idea. Thanks Ankles for filling us in on where the money came from. Have to agree with other posters, I think they ripped the heart and soul out of the place. Not mad about the barn extension either.
