Lou and Steve moved to Devon from London so their children, Maisey and Jesse, who are both deaf, could attend a specialist school. When they first saw the house, it wasn’t love at first sight, but they decided to buy it because of its beautiful location.

The problems start with the front of the house, with its imposing steps making it look like a Spanish nightclub. The family love the big garden with the swimming pool, but it’s totally cut off from the house by a high retaining wall.

Determined to unlock this property’s potential are top architects Lizzie Fraher and Damion Burrows. After investigating the problems, Lizzie has some clever ideas to make the front more attractive, while Damion has a radical solution to make the most of the sea views.

Will the couple go for Lizzie’s wildflower hill or Damion’s radical house flip? Show less
