Suzanne and Will are the homeowners featured in Sarah Beeny's Renovate Don't Relocate season 2 episode 2. They live in a modern townhouse in a vibrant London neighborhood that they love, but they're struggling to create a functional and stylish living space. The couple has several issues they need to address to make their house a home, including storage solutions, a lack of natural light, and a layout that doesn't work for their needs.
At the beginning of the episode, Sarah Beeny meets with Suzanne and Will to assess their property and understand their renovation goals. The couple explains that they want to create an open-plan living area with plenty of storage, a dining space that can accommodate guests, and a separate office area for Will to work from home.
As Sarah delves deeper into the townhouse, she identifies several key issues that are preventing Suzanne and Will from achieving their desired look and feel. The house is very tall and narrow, with a deep plan that makes it difficult to bring natural light deep into the building. There is plenty of storage, but it's inefficiently organized and doesn't maximise the available space. The office area in the front of the house is very small and cramped, with no clear separation between it and the living room. All of these issues need to be addressed to create the comfortable and stylish living space that the couple wants.
Sarah Beeny's solution is to completely rethink the layout of the townhouse, starting with the ground floor. She proposes knocking down the wall between the living room and kitchen to create a large, open-plan space that can be used for multiple purposes. She also suggests moving the office area to the back of the house, where it will be lighter and more spacious.
With the plan in place, Sarah sets about finding the best contractors for the job. She sources materials and designs bespoke solutions like built-in storage and furniture to maximize the space of the townhouse. Throughout the renovation, Sarah checks in on Suzanne and Will to make sure they're happy with the progress and to address any concerns they may have.
As the episode progresses, viewers see the renovation take shape, with the old kitchen and living room walls being knocked down and the new space emerging. Sarah Beeny designs and customises clever storage solutions to combat the lack of space and layout issues.
Finally, at the end of the episode, the big reveal takes place. Suzanne and Will are thrilled with their new, open-plan living space, with clean lines, more natural light, and clear areas for relaxation or work. Their kitchen and dining space are also now totally reorganised and functional. The cramped old office has transformed into a bright and airy space at the rear of the house. Overall, the renovation has breathed new life into the townhouse and made it a much more inviting and functional space for the couple to enjoy.
