If you’ve ever attempted to renovate a house, you already know how much of a hassle it is. The hefty process of turning something old into something beautiful takes skill, good planning, patience, and, of course, finances. Understandably, not everyone possesses all of these things, so we can only admire those who do. One of those handy people is Jamie Barrow, who recently gathered plenty of attention for turning an old basement into a stunning apartment.

While so many people know him as Britain’s fastest snowboarder who won a Guinness World Record for the fastest speed on a snowboard while being towed by a vehicle, Barrow is also brilliant at home renovation.

The 27-year-old man has already renovated 6 properties, but his last one was the biggest project so far.

In 2017, he noticed that a beautiful Georgian townhouse, where he already owned a property at the time, had a basement and sub-basement available to buy.

Even though the basement was in rather poor condition and looked like a “creepy old dungeon,” Barrow immediately realized that he could turn it into something really luxurious. And so he did!

After a couple of long years with plenty of headaches and an investment of $137,000, the basement became unrecognizable.

The previously uninhabitable place with no water, electricity, or gas was turned into a beautiful 2-bedroom apartment that now sells for around $592,000. You can check out the listing here.

Jamie Barrow has been developing properties for nearly 8 years now. It all started as a hobby, but after he completed his first small project and successfully flipped it, Barrow realized that it could become something he does for a living. That’s how his passion for renovation began. Hopefully, we will see plenty of stunning renovation from him soon!
