We bought a home untouched since the 1960s and changed every single room… but there is something that is STILL ruining our new look
A couple who refurbished their entire house which had not been touched since the 1960s have revealed the last thing they want to change.
The renovating Rowland couple purchased the semi-detached property in July 2022 and have documented their dramatic progress in renovating it on TikTok ever since.
When they moved in, their new home had been left unchanged for decades, with dated wallpaper, a basic kitchen and an overgrown garden.
And having stripped out and refurbished every single room, the only thing that remained was the garden.
But even after giving that a makeover, they claim there is still one eyesore 'ruining' the new aesthetic.

The Rowland couple, who go by @rowlandrenos, on TikTok were baffled when they made a myriad of strange discoveries in their first home
The garden shed is still as it was from 60 years ago, planted in the middle of the garden, but the space around it has been transformed.
It had consisted of overgrown borders, a concrete path and a tired lawn, but the couple swapped it for a stylish patio, an expanded lawn and pretty raised boxes.
Posting the transformation, they added the caption: 'Just the garage ruining our new garden aesthetic [sic].'
This followed flipping every single room since they bought the building a year and a half ago.
They previously shared some of its quirks, starting with a carpeted main bathroom.
Now spacious and packed with modern tiling, a sleek bath, coupled with a black shower-head and taps, the room is a far cry from its once dated look.
Although it may be a strange sight now, carpeted bathroom floors were all the rage in the 60s and 70s hence why the room was packed with the bold fabric flooring.
But that wasn't the only strange feature they found in their home - another unusual feature was wallpaper on the ceiling - as well as the walls.
The bathroom has been converted to a sleek and spacious after the entire room had been originally designed in a unnerving blood-red style, even with a carpet floor
The living room had a a wallpapered ceiling which the new occupants did not enjoy scraping off
It was succeeded by a gorgeous space with a lavish sofa and enormous TV
The kitchen had been originally painted an unsightly mint-green colour, but was transformed into a sleek, open space fitted with modern appliances and fixtures
According to Wallpaper From The 70s, one of the minds who inspired the trend was architect, Vernon Panton, who would often create rooms with similar hues throughout to create 'the impression of unified surroundings'.
Replacing that was a large part of their living room makeover, with the space now boasting a gorgeous sofa and a massive TV.
The new kitchen has a minimalist look, with white cabinets and a sleek induction hob, and a view out into the newly pruned garden.
The pair are continuing to share their renovation journey, as they encourage others to make to leap and flip houses of their own.
