REPEAT

Tech professional Rob Hennessey fell in love with his bargain-price Victorian house on the banks of the Lee the moment he saw it. But with only the slimmest of budgets to patch up its holey floors and rotten joists, he must upskill fast and take on most of the restoration with his own two hands. Over the course of two years, he meets new partner Katie and completes the project as an astonishingly high spec family home for her and new arrival, baby Caoimhe.

Tiktok star Maryrose Simpson's Nana left her a three-bedroom corner house on the main street in Stradbally, where their family have lived for five generations. Maryrose's father died when she was 12 and she treasured every detail of his family home. But lockdown delays and spiralling prices push her to make hard choices and radical changes in the building. The end result is a thoroughly modern home and office base for her online career. And all within a lovingly restored exterior which reinvigorates the historic streetscape.

Gym manager Kelly and barber Paddy were gifted a patch of land in the small town of Dunleer, Co Louth by Paddy's parents. They plan a comfy new-build, but hidden under a ball of ivy on site, they uncover a towering mill built in the 1830s. It was missing every one of its 43 windows and most of its roof and floors, but the thirty-somethings see beyond the ruination and set about converting it.
