A couple who bought a run-down 'drug den' have spent millions transforming and restoring it to its former glory. Reg and Elizabeth Price say they made a 'daft' offer for a 200-year-old property which had fallen into disrepair and been taken over by squatters.
The pair bought the abandoned house for £225,000 back in 2013 and have spent the last decade renovating it, which has cost them around £2 million. The couple have since managed to turn the depilated graffiti-covered home in Cornwall back into a stately home.
The now-beautiful Regency Grade-II listed home, which boasts 29 rooms, was built between 1810 and 1815 but had been left derelict for six years and was reportedly being used by drug addicts.
