Grand Designs viewers were left stunned as one of the most famous properties ever seen on the series made a return - and looked almost unrecognisable.
Presenter Kevin McCloud revisited the lighthouse-inspired home in Devon, which had been under construction for more than a decade. It first appeared in a now-infamous episode of the Channel 4 show in 2019, dubbed the ‘saddest episode ever’ by viewers.
Kevin, 63, met Edward Short and his now ex-wife Hazel on the original episode as they were in the process of constructing the giant coastal home. Edward assured Kevin at the time that the project would be finished in just 18 months, at a cost of no more than £1.8 million - but the colossal task of building the property ended up leaving him £7million in debt and spelled the end of his 20-year marriage, The Mirror reports .
