1. Ash and Carolyn's house in Bushey Heath (Image 1 of 23)

Art teacher Ash Taylor, charity freelancer Carolyn and their six year old son Jacob live in a four bedroom detached house inherited from Ash’s parents... meaning that Carolyn is living in the shadow of her late mother-in-law’s tastes. But is Ash really ready to change the house his parents once lived in?

This week George’s challenge is to reconcile 1970s architecture with the needs of modern living. In the 1970s land was much cheaper meaning bigger homes and larger gardens. Identikit houses were dropped into newly created cul-de-sacs regardless of aspect - so some got light and air whilst others stayed dark and dingy.

My daughter and I fell in love with the pink glitzy mirror displayed in the mirror showroom on this episode of the show, however I have still not been able to locate it. Can anyone help?

Who manufactures this exact Garden Room? I've searched online and cannot find a similar one. I keep coming across log cabins etc.

Hi - I watched this episode late one night and realised I used to work with Carolyn. I wondered if you could pass on my email address to her? We worked together at AIP in the late 80's. I'd love to catch up with her...

It is great to have before and after photos. One thing that would be really helpful is to show the floor plan before and after.
