A couple bought an “unlivable” flat in London and have already added 20,000 pounds ($25,000) to its value by transforming it into their dream home step by step—after learning DIY on YouTube.
Rochelle Taylor-Butcher, 29, and her partner, Angus Ord, 30, a data scientist, bought their one-bedroom flat in Kingston, South London, at the end of March 2023 for 260,000 pounds ($320,000). When they first moved in, the flat was in “disarray” with peeling wallpaper, mold on the walls, and a musty carpet.
