Three years ago, twenty-six-year-old Cal Hunter from Hull and twenty-four-year-old Claire Segeren from Toronto, Canada set out to buy a two-bedroom flat in Glasgow city centre at auction, but in a fateful mistake that changed everything, Cal bid on the wrong unit and they ended up accidentally purchasing Jameswood Villa - a derelict property in need of total renovation in Dunoon, situated on the Cowal peninsula within a quiet, close-knit community.
With the property having been uninhabited for over thirty years, with what remains of it being over 100 years old and having been described by builders as ‘in a state of partial collapse’ they were advised to demolish Jameswood Villa but ignoring expert advice, millennials Cal and Claire chose to sustainably bring it back to life instead.
