It was about the eighth property that Amy and fiancé Tom had seen - a two-bedroom brick end-of-terrace house in Walthamstow, east London, which was in a run-down state when the couple bought it in 2021.
‘We were looking for a home with plenty of potential, that we could put our stamp on,' recalls Amy. 'This house was super run-down, covered in pebbledash, with a conservatory at the back that was freezing. But we loved the location.'
