A CREATIVE mum has revealed how she transformed her tiny £200,000 two-bedroom bungalow to make her dream five-bedroom pad. 

Georgina Russell, from Cornwall, bought the grungy home from a hoarder and revealed the jaw-dropping “before” and “after” photos after her renovation. 

Georgina shared her project in the We Love Mrs Hinch Facebook group, and people were “mind-blown” at the results. 

The mum-of-two wrote: “We’ve taken so much inspiration from this group. I promise this is the same house to those asking. We’ve put everything into making this our family home.”

Speaking to Femail, Georgina said: “We now have a five-bedroom property with utility room, master suite, bathroom, entrance hall and open plan kitchen dining living room.”

Georgina and architect husband Tom spent £128,000 on the renovation, and revealed it is now worth £450,000, working out as the couple making £122,000.



She describes the home transformation period as one of the most “stressful” times in their lives, as the couple did it while planning their wedding last year.

The shocking “before” photos show the home with floor-to-ceiling clutter, little natural light and outdated decoration. 

However, by the end of the project, the home had immaculate walls, chic wooden floors and the garage had been converted into two double bedrooms. 



The couple even added in a gym, and remodelled the garden to fit two car parking spaces instead of one. 

Inside the property now has a minimalist Nordic theme, with items bought for bargain prices from places such as eBay. 

Unsurprisingly, people were quick to share how impressed they were at the new home. 





One wrote: “I can’t cope with your house. It’s just absolutely mind blowing.”

Another added: “OMG! What an amazing space you have created. You must be exhausted? Time to sit with your feet up and take what you have achieved.”
