When we first laid eyes on the 18th-century Dower House, we fell in love with the gorgeous English countryside, but over the years, the home itself had lost all its historic charm. Old wooden beams? Gone. Brick fireplaces? Plastered over. Stunning windows, all but forgotten. This place was begging for a rescue, especially the snug (sitting room) with its modern fireplace and crumbling walls.
We’ve always dreamed of having a cozy room to read in or relax by the fire. Join us as we transform this sadly neglected room back into a stunning English cottage sitting room! With tons of old beams, lime plaster, DIY paneling, secret doors, and months of hard work, we uncover hidden architectural gems, restore a huge brick fireplace and craft DIY furnishings that bring new life to this old home. For those who are joining us for the first time, watch our early progress on the sitting room at • CREEPIEST Discovery Ye... and • Restoring our British ... and enjoy the full transformative reveal!
Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe to join us on our DIY restoration journey!

Thankfully we didn't have birds in the chimney but we could just hear them as they were singing away at the top of the chimney pot!

Are you going to put a cowl on the chimney to stop jackdaws nesting in the chimney pot? We have had them and once the nest is built you can't remove it until they have vacated. You will then have to get the chimney swept. We have had cowls put on all of our chimneys. 😊

I can almost hear the Dower House sighing with pleasure at being so well loved. No wonder the birds are singing. I'm surprised there's no angelic choir! Beautiful room, and the candles are genius!

What a lovely room....I love the sofas. The planter turned out great, it should fill in beautifully. You are so lucky to have a greenhouse to help your plants along. I'd start another one that is similar and rotate the two between the greenhouse and house to keep them looking strong.

This is the most interesting house renovation I’ve seen in a long time. And I’ve seen many. The challenges you have. And more importantly, your design taste which is exquisite. The candle-rock (I call it) is definitely a unique design. You took a 5£ candelabra and rock from outside and made it worth at least 125-50£. Maybe more. Beautiful. ❤

The funny part about learning those annoying quirks is that our spouses ACT like they don’t know we know that they do those behaviors over and over. But they know we know they know what they’re doing…and we’re playing along. I swear it’s a form of foreplay in long term relationships. Intentionally I infuriating or being infuriated by our partner really keeps the 🔥 alive 🤣 Beautiful reno and what a cozy room!

Another beautiful room. Watching that video has got me planning a complete makeover of mine! I am debating about whether to get rid of the carpet to expose the original oak floors. We have done that in all the other downstairs rooms. I love your attention to detail. It is so satisfying to watch it all come together. Do you find yourself going into the room and just staring at it?! Or is that just me 😂
@mytinyestate
@mytinyestate 8 дней назад
You should! Although sometimes carpet is super nice for comfort we are always the ones that prefer solid floor with a large rug! Yes even after years of finishing a room sometimes we go in the room and we are omg I can’t belive we did all this work!

I eas OBSESSING over the reveal of where the glaze poured over the edge of the fire box tiles, but doesn't cover -- so, a lot of bisque?? colored ceramic?? Shows. I was thinking, I'd HAVE to cover that light, bisquee? lot up. THEN -- YOU said exactly the thing I'd been thinking since the 45° flooring "frame" went round the ... hearth? Fire floor?

Interesting I wouldn’t have thought that Borja kills indoor plants. I guess I was under the wrongful assumption that people who are good at gardening are good with all plants. I myself can kill a cactus 😆 so I clearly don’t know much. Oh my gosh I couldn’t live in the house knowing there are birds in the chimney. I’m terrified of them. That floor is gorgeous and the pop of blue from the sofa is stunning. I love watching your rooms come together!
