Chester’s draughtiest Victorian semi is the battleground for Kirstie and Phil’s latest property skirmish. Homeowners Carl and Katy are locked in a classic renovation standoff: he’s desperate to list it, she’s determined to love it. Carl, understandably, is tired of throwing money at a house that seems to absorb heat like a black hole, while Katy clings to the potential of their period property.
Kirstie, armed with an £80,000 budget, attempts to perform a miracle of energy-efficient transformation, while Phil, with a £500,000 war chest, searches for a new home that satisfies both their desires. With escalating costs and clashing visions, can Kirstie pull off a renovation that makes Carl change his tune, or will Phil’s property prowess prevail?
Kirstie and Phil’s Love It or List It airs Wednesday, January 8, 2025, at 8:00 PM on Channel 4.
