Worst House On The Street viewers rage ‘look at the state of it!’ as couple who ‘don’t have a clue’ fumble eye-watering £1.2million property renovation

Worst House On The Street viewers raged ‘look at the state of it’ after a ‘clueless’ couple fumbled the renovation of a £1.2million property.

The Channel 4 series sees property developers Scarlette and Stuart Douglas, who are brother and sister, help people transform their family homes without breaking the bank.

And in a recent episode, Colin and Audrey appeared on the show to renovate their £1.2million five-bed home in Balham, south west London.

The pair intended to improve the house with the intent to resell, but it soon became clear that the pair had a lot more work to do than anticipated.

The first obstacle became obvious when the pair set the renovation budget at £100,000.

Stuart revealed to the couple that the average price for a renovation of this size in London would cost more than four times this amount.

‘They have underestimated the amount of time effort and money it takes to reno a project of this size,’ he said. 

And the fans did not seem to have hope that the pair could pull it of and pleaded them to give it up and sell it the way it is. 

Flocking to social media, fans said: ‘I don’t know why they don’t just sell how it is, I feel they’re going to do such a s****y job renovating it if they ever even start!’

‘They can`t do it on their own, ffs, they don`t have a clue, look at the state it is in already. just take the 1.2m, you don’t know what you`re at.’

‘They might be better off selling the house as is. Will need a shed load to renovate to a good quality,’ and ‘100k won’t go anywhere in that house, also everything is ruined, 60 years of butchering the place.’

By the end, the hosts were forced to intervene and encourage them to speed up their project. 

They explained to the couple that they were making the home ‘worse’ and the development was not moving quick enough.  

By the end, the duo spent £150,000 on their inherited family property. But the pair were left disappointed as their final overall evaluation was quoted at £1.5million.

A previous episode that aired last year saw a horrified Channel 4 host gasp ‘I just want to leave’ and a couple break down in tears during a horror property makeover. 

Scarlette and Stuart travelled to Nottingham to visit couple Luke and Shurel in their new-yet-dilapidated house.

First-time parents Luke and Shurel were hoping to transform their property in just three months as the lease on the property they were living in with their newborn son Koa would soon expire.

But this proved to be a tall order when their house was revealed to have gaping holes in the ground, as well as a lingering smell of damp. 

Worst House On The Street airs on Channel 4 and is available to stream on 4OD.
