When designers Robin Grundy and Eoin Murphy's search for their forever home brought them to a Victorian Schoolhouse in Wexford, they knew it was the one.
After returning from Robin’s native Toronto with their two children, the couple went sale agreed on their dream restoration project. Nothing is ever straightforward, and it took them a stressful 2 years to officially secure the keys to the schoolhouse, a small but sturdy building, and they now hope to turn it into a modern three bedroom home.
With a modest budget of €100,000, the pair have to do much of the grunt work themselves to achieve their vision. After many delays, can Robin and Eoin transform a plain, functional space which was never designed for residential use into the minimalist industrial chic family home of their dreams?
