Selling Houses Australia – Renovation transformation

The LifeStyle Channel’s Selling Houses Australia Episode 11 aired last night, watch as the team transformed the home in Monterey.

The Story: Anna Nikolis is in a lot of debt, and her only way out is to sell her beloved home. She originally bought the home with her mother, and they had big plans to renovate and turn it into the perfect house for Anna, her husband, their children and of course her Mum. But things didn’t turn out as planned. Anna’s marriage broke up, her mother passed away and Anna was left struggling to raise 3 children on her own.

The Problem: Anna continued making renovations to the home, borrowing more and more money against the house to complete the work. Now she’s out of cash, has debts to amounting to $900,000 and the work is nowhere near finished!

The Solution: Luxaflex Duette Shades were installed by the Selling Houses Australia team to give extra privacy to the home, as it’s located on a busy road. The Duette Shades give the house a modern look, whilst also providing the ultimate in versatile light control, privacy and style.

All Luxaflex Window Coverings were supplied and installed by Luxaflex Window Fashions Gallery, Illawarra Blinds & Awnings in Bexley, New South Wales.

Selling Houses Australia airs every Wednesday, 8:30pm on The LifeStyle Channel, only on Foxtel.
