In this new series, property expert Sarah Beeny and award-winning architect Damion Burrows meet the people brave enough to take on the challenge of converting their small living spaces into bigger places. Little House Big Plans reveals that no matter how small your home or how tight your budget, you can create your own grand design. In this first episode, hair salon receptionist Leah and her husband Sam, a landscaper and builder, have plans to double in size their two-bedroom cottage in Wiltshire into a home big enough for their four children, a load of musical instruments and a bunch of family pets. But the pandemic and a shortage of supplies means that things don’t go to plan. Damion visits Sam and Matt, who have transformed their traditional three-bed home with the addition of an ultra-modern cubist extension. He also meets David and Lindsay in Bristol, whose big plans were to build a sustainable, eco-house on a brownfield site.
