Professional property hunters Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer are on a mission; to secure the best possible property for the most competitive price, helping buyers through the murky world of agencies and viewings, in a bid to find their perfect home. Sue and James have outgrown their two-bedroom house and want space to do their artwork, and views to sooth the stress of modern day living. They end up falling in love with more than one house - including a total ruin on top of a hill.
