“If I said “our big fat Greek renovation” I’m sure that will give you a clue! Watch this reel to see where exactly -We couldn’t be happier to be spending another summer together bashing down walls in one of our favourite places ever ! MILLIONS of you tuned in – thank you SO MUCH for all the love and support.”
In the video, they were excited to announce they will be jetting off to Corfu for their next project. Alan said it will be the “best summer ever.”
Fans rushed to the comments after seeing the news. One said: “It’s the best show. I love it so much”, while another wrote: “So happy for you both xx can’t wait to watch!!!!!”
Celebrities also expressed their love for the show. Dannii Minogue said: “Cannot wait – you two are hilarious!”, while Ruth Langsford wrote: “Fantastic! Can’t wait to watch. Take me with you!!!!”
A few weeks ago, it was revealed that their gorgeous Spanish townhouse had gone on the market. The final episode of the series aired on March 14 and saw Amanda and Alan go all out for their final room in the elegant home, which had been unoccupied for 35 years. Following the finals of their latest renovation journey, the beautiful three-storey house is now being marketed through Granada Village & Country and featured on Rightmove.
The restored house boasts three large bedrooms, two bathrooms, a stylish kitchen, dining room and a top floor bar/living room reminiscent of a sophisticated London club. There is also a very sheltered and private patio garden with a first floor roof terrace and the option of creating more accommodation on the ground floor of the former stable.
Found on the main square, the home is bursting with local character and features a double-fronted façade with beautifully styled interiors, reflecting Amanda and Alan’s creative vision. There is a sun-soaked, Mediterranean-style roof terrace, an in-house bar and cosy communal dining space.
