Grand Designs: The Street

The production of Grand Designs: The Street has been an incredible journey over the course of the past five years. During the course of this six-episode series, which is hosted by Kevin McCloud, cameras accompany the first ten pioneering homes as they construct an entirely new street from the ground up as part of what will ultimately be the largest self-build project in the UK. This groundbreaking experiment is being carried out in a prime site near Bicester, which is only 23 kilometers (14 miles) from Oxford and a little over a half an hour by rail from London. The local council purchased the site from the MOD, but rather than selling it to a developer for a quick profit, they have pre-approved the basic planning for the land and are selling plots to the general people for approximately one hundred thousand pounds apiece. Every household has the goal of constructing their new home for a price that is lower than what it would cost them to purchase a comparable home in the neighborhood. The typical budget for each home is $250,000. Because the residents' ages range from 24 to72, their budgets range from 160 to 500 thousand pounds, and the outline planning has been pre-approved, each family is given the opportunity to freely express themselves through their choice of architectural style and building approach. Throughout the course of the series, cameras will follow these courageous self-builders as they transform a field into a street made entirely of their own creations using self-build techniques. There is a lot of potential upside, but there is also some potential downside. In the course of their endeavor, these trailblazers will sustain injuries, structural disasters, and weariness on both the physical and financial fronts. The strain of concentrating on one's own development will make it impossible to maintain friendships and will doom partnerships to dissolution. Those that stick with the projects until they are finished, on the other hand, will be rewarded with stunning homes that are perfectly suited to their requirements and will be located on a street that is unlike any other in the UK.
