Alan and Dora are artists. This is so far the best episode of Restoration Man during this pandemic video binge I'm currently undergoing. They were hit financially and maybe were regretting taking on the build in the middle of construction but what they created in the end is a true reflection of their artistic sensibilities. Best restoration so far.

All of these restorations are amazing but this one is special. It feels like the flint mill is still there not gyprocked over. Really really well done Alan and Dora. eta, given the market action the last two weeks, you dodged a bullet pulling your money out.

Oh My! Alan and his wife did an Amazing job in restoring the Old Mill. Loved every aspect of the job that they took on right down to the restoring of the old metal desk and the use of it. The old wooden beams, the creation of every room addition; love the round windows and the discovery of the stones. The landscape is absolutely astonishing, what a lovely place to retire to.

The guest room is used as a B&B. They run it. With no mortgage they should likely be able to plow back into their savings from their jobs and the room rental. And since 2013 my guess is the value has gone up enormously.

Going in, I guessed $450,000 US and it's $520,000. It's really lovely and I'm glad that they saved a huge part of the area's history. I'd live there in a second. They kept so much of the original character and it feels modern and comfortable while not erasing it's original features.

Other naive couples who go into this kind of restoration would have given up on the project because they wouldn't have been willing to sacrifice their retirement but these two recognised the value of this beautiful old building and threw every last penny into getting it finished to the highest standard. I'm from Stoke on Trent and know these areas well and now I'm prepared to drive to Stone just to check this place out. Hands down one of the best and most respectful restorations I've ever seen.
