Sometimes a property and a person are destined to meet and form a winning and successful partnership, both supporting the other through stressful moments; a home cocooning its owner and an owner lavishing love and care on the home.
This is the story of how Luke Thomas fell in love with a house and brought it back to life, via a complete renovation project, to be totally loved once again, and in return Luke feels like the house 'kept him alive' through a devastating stage 4 melanoma cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatment.
Luke says: "The house wasn't finished and I was getting quite poorly as well, so I wasn't sure if I'd actually live to get to see it completed. But during that time, thinking about the home, doing research and buying furniture and things like that, and the passion, it kept me alive and my mind stimulated."
