Imagine stepping inside your home, but suddenly it is transformed beyond your wildest dreams, without ever opening a can of paint or lifting a single brick. Angela Scanlon presents a property makeover series like no other. In a first for British television, cutting-edge virtual reality and visual effects enable people to see what the future of their home could look like, before building it in reality. Never have plans come to life like this: people can instantly explore a stunning transformation of their bedroom, walk around an incredible double-height kitchen or see how adding a gigantic picture window will turn a dingy lounge into a showstopping sitting room. In each episode, a family is presented with two radically different designs by two extraordinary architects. Which ambitious renovation will they choose to become their perfect home?

#1 - Luke and Mimi

Season 1 - Episode 4 - Aired 5/7/2019

Accountants Mimi and Luke have lived in their terraced house in Grantham for five years with their two-year-old daughter and Mimi’s 10-year-old son. With Luke’s two older children often there too, the house is bursting at the seams, yet the layout is entirely unpractical. They fell in love with the home because of its large garden, but the living areas are a rabbit warren of small disjointed rooms. There is barely enough space for the couple and their growing children to all be in one room together. Perhaps worse still, there is no view of the big garden from the house! With a budget of £30k, two competing architects have their work cut out to rethink the layout and improve family life.

#2 - Rob and Helen

Season 1 - Episode 6 - Aired 10/9/2019

Helen and Rob live in a Victorian terraced house in St Albans. When they bought it five years ago, it needed a lot of work. They have put all their energy into renovating the entrance and the front room, but the back of the house remains a mishmash of tiny and unpractical rooms. A narrow kitchen is uncomfortably close to the only family bathroom, and a dark, windowless utility space has Helen comparing the rear of her home to a dungeon.

#3 - Ruth and Lindsey

Season 1 - Episode 7 - Aired 10/16/2019

Ruth and Lindsey live in a 1990s developer home near Middlesbrough. Their focus in recent years has been achieving their goal of having a family. Now, with two young daughters, it is time for Lindsey and Ruth to tackle their home, which fails to meet the needs of their family. The problems begin the moment they come through the door. The tiny hallway barely allows for a buggy to be brought into the house. When inside, it has to be brought through almost every room on the ground floor before it can be put away. Meanwhile, the kitchen has almost no storage and is disconnected from the living spaces where the children play, so the family are rarely all in the same room at the same time.

Truck salesman Mike and urban designer Lisa live in a three-bedroom Victorian terrace in Shrewsbury which Mike bought 20 years ago. After getting married, they hoped to have a family and their treasured son George is now ten years old. What was a spacious home for two has now become a squeeze for a family of three, only made worse by the huge range of conflicting hobbies that compete for space. Lisa is desperate for a calm place to do her yoga, whilst Mike and George play the drums and the guitar respectively. But it is not just music Mike wants to focus on - more than anything he wants a place he can spend quality time with George, building and tinkering with bikes.

#8 - Cris and Becky

Season 1 - Episode 5 - Aired 5/14/2019

In 2015 Becky and Cris moved from a small cottage to a four-bed 1960s house in Wiltshire, hoping it would provide desperately needed space for their growing children. A family of keen musicians, they also hoped a large reception room would give them the opportunity to play their instruments together. But three years later the house is awkward and unhomely with dark and uninviting rooms. A poor layout means the four of them live quite separately, and those dreamed of musical get-togethers never happen.
