“Homes Under the Hammer,” the venerable BBC institution that has fueled property dreams for nearly two decades, returns this Tuesday with a trio of projects sure to inspire – and maybe even make you question your own DIY skills.
In Derbyshire, a couple takes on the challenge of integrating their cottage garden into their living space. Think open-plan living taken to the extreme, with potentially more greenery than your average botanical garden. Martel Maxwell revisits a developer in Tyneside, dispensing sage advice on creating stunning conversions. This developer is practically an oracle of insight. Over in Stoke-on-Trent, Tommy Walsh tours a house with enviable Victorian features, the kind that make even the most modern minimalist consider embracing a bit of ornate plasterwork.
So, whether you’re after practical tips or vicarious renovation thrills, “Homes Under the Hammer” delivers. Catch it on BBC One this Tuesday, 20 May at 11:15 AM GMT.
