I believe he said they couldn't find a house in East Belfast for £250k they liked.
He wouldn't have got a barn sized house but the houses in the nice areas are cheap compared to the rest of the UK.
I've no idea of the area but had a quick look on Rightmove - not much listed, maybe Rightmove isn't popular there - but £249K gets a nice looking 4 bed detached with a RangeRover on the drive.He wouldn't have got a barn sized house but the houses in the nice areas are cheap compared to the rest of the UK.

Updated again.
Staircase needs changing to 'windows don't fit', it's always the windows. That aside well done 
I always wonder what these timber clad places will look like in 20 years, the planks on this one were already stained darker at the bottom.
Wood is not a good material for external cladding, not unless you like painting or replacing it every 10 - 20 yrs or so.

Just watched it. Really like the house and the location.
It's funny, but I also tend to also enjoy the builds more when I like the people building it.
I agree with this. I think it is because if I like the people doing the build, then it kind of suggests that they are "people like me" and this is always a programme that gives me so much hope for eventually being able to build my own house. If people I like can do it, then surely so can I?!It's funny, but I also tend to also enjoy the builds more when I like the people building it.

Really liked that one.
Ideally it would be wider and didn't like the use of wood tiling in kitchen and wood in bathroom.
Aside from that really good though and liked the stone clad ground floor (which then continued inside) and then the timber first floor, really fitted the setting.

thought the small splash of colour was brilliant
"Kevin McCloud meets Chris and Kayo, who plan to build a unique, Roman-inspired home on the protected land surrounding one of Britain's most historic abbeys in Hertfordshire. The pair find themselves constrained by stringent planning conditions, and the intricate and complicated build puts both their schedule and budget under a great deal of pressure"

Why isn't the putting green on the roof? He could have an amazing crazy golf course up there.
You can't quite get a putting green smoothness to a sedum roof 
This is mental In a possibly fantastic way. I love single story properties so am hopeful, although all that wood internally could be a disaster.
