6 Months Later: The Final Reveal of My Own House Renovation | Before & After Transformation

For the past 6 months, I've been renovating my own home. If you've been following along, you've already seen where this project started. A dated house with heavy brickwork, dark finishes, and a layout that needed careful planning. Now it's finally time to show you the completed transformation. In this video, I take you through the entire house and explain not only what we changed, but why we made those decisions. From the exterior renovation to the interior finishes, every detail was designed around creating a warm, modern organic home that feels comfortable, timeless, and lived-in. Some of the highlights include: • Transforming the original 70s brick exterior with bagwash finishes and landscaping • A custom-made entrance featuring fluted glass and a more welcoming arrival experience • Built-in furniture and integrated seating designed specifically for the space • Curved architectural details carried throughout the home • A dark feature living area with exposed beams, fireplace, and custom lighting • A completely reworked open-plan layout connecting the kitchen, dining, and entertainment spaces • A large entertainment patio designed to maximize light while maintaining shelter • A custom outdoor braai area with built-in storage, sink, and fridge • A kitchen renovation that combines original cabinetry with modern finishes • Integrated design features including a concealed extractor fan and custom joinery Throughout the project, we focused on blending new finishes with antique finds, second-hand pieces, and natural materials to avoid the feeling of a showroom and create a home with character. This isn't a client project. This is my own house. The result is a home that reflects many of the design principles we use in our flips while giving us the freedom to experiment with ideas we love. If you haven't watched the original before video, I highly recommend watching that first so you can fully appreciate the transformation. 💬 Which part of the renovation is your favourite? 👍 Like the video if you enjoy renovation and property content 🔔 Subscribe for more house flips, renovations, and behind-the-scenes property projects We also offer a course where we teach you how to flip your first property – check it out here: 👉 https://bigpondproperty.co.za/courses Want to sell your home or renovate with us?
