Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer look back on two period properties that desperately needed to be adapted for modern-day living. They meet the Sarah and Ian Renard in Brixworth, Northamptonshire. With one toddler and two dogs to house, this two-bed rural semi is bursting at the seams and Ian wants out. There's only one thing stopping him: Sarah, who is determined to stay and convinced that the house still has the potential to cater for a growing family. They also meet Graham and his partner Ryan who have been fighting over their 17th-century cottage in Cranleigh for years. Charming though it may be, it does not offer the space the two of them now need.
