A family who has outgrown their current home has come up with a way to get their dream house for a budget. In an episode of Grand Designs: The Streets which airs tonight, couple Peter and Anita try to build their dream home. The show, which is now on episode four of the series, has followed the first ten homes to be built in Bicester on a new lot which is expected to eventually hold 1,900 houses. Peter and Anita will try to build their dream home from scratch completely by themselves with a budget of around £280,000.
Grand Designs The Street: Family build dream home
The couple, who have two teenage children, will aim to build a four-bedroom family home which will also have three bathrooms.
The family will try to build their home on the Cherwell District Council-owned land as this has relaxed planning regulations.
Already living nearby, the family are taking on the challenge as they have grown too big for their current property.
The show will follow dad, Peter, who has planned to manage the build himself with the help of his son, Sam, 18.
With a budget of £280,000 to cover
