Billie Faiers and Greg Shepherd haven't exactly had the best of luck renovating their new home. They had an absolute nightmare getting the planning permission sorted, honestly, we would've just popped it on Rightmove and looked for another house.
However fast forward a year and the renovations are now well underway and Billie has given her followers a little peak into her soon to be dream house.
In the video Billie and Greg can be seen alongside their children Nelly, seven, and Arthur, four, and while there's still a lot of work to do before the house can become a home, the progress so far looks super promising.
Billie wrote alongside the video, "Remember why you started ✨ For the first time in a few months we took Nelly and Arthur to see the progress of the new house (we haven't taken them for a while because it looks like a building site and they wasn't that interested 😂) but today they was soooo excited 🥺❤️.
"Building a house is not easy ... but seeing their little faces today makes it all worth while ☺️❤️ Not long now my little darlings 🤞✨❤️."

The work on the house includes a new swimming pool that's been built in the garden but it's currently full of mud at the moment... But on the plus side, the walls have been installed so it's easy to imagine it full of water on a hot sunny day.
The £1.4 million Essex home has been undergoing renovations for over a year following an alleged feud over planning permission with their neighbour and according to The Daily Mail, Billie is no longer on speaking terms with them.

Billie and Greg's Essex home
Billie and Greg's Essex family home looks traditional from the outside. The front door has been painted a neutral grey and has a silver knocker and stained glass window.
Entrance
How cute are Billie and Nelly in their matching dressing gowns? We love this sweet selfie taken in the reflection of Billie's chic French-style mirror.
Entrance
And the chic decor continues... Billie has filled her console table with minimalist framed prints, placed to a Jo Malone candle and room diffuser.
Entrance
She's off! A much younger Nelly parades through Billie and Greg's tiled hallway in this adorable snap. Cute red suitcase, too.
Hallway
Proud mum Billie couldn't resist to get a picture of Nelly on her first day of school. The Essex mum has hidden her radiators behind made-to-measure grey fittings, which she has used to display family photos in metallic frames.
Living room
Billie and Sam pose with Arthur and Rosie propped on their hips in this family pic. Nelly's toys and Arthur's high chair - designed by his auntie, Sam - can be spotted in the background.
Living room
Greg settles down with with daughter Nelly under a cosy blanket to watch some TV on what looks like the world's comfiest armchair.
Living room at Christmas
Billie and Greg's Christmas looks so plush - albeit a little chaotic! We bet Nelly was thrilled with that miniature white range rover - we know we would be.
Living room at Christmas
Billie and Nelly posed for a mummy-daughter photo in front of the tree in December 2018. Billie opted for a lavish white and gold theme for her Christmas tree.
Living room
This is the PERFECT sofa for lazy Sundays. Billie even has personalised cushions - one for her and husband, Greg and one for Nelly and Arthur.
Living room
Talking of personalised cushions, Nelly and Arthur have a whole bunch of their own. Arthur looks so cosy in the heap of cushions.
Living room
This is totally the adults-only area. Even the thought of little rascals anywhere near that lush wallpaper and cream carpet makes us feel anxious...
Living room / Play area
... But luckily with Billie and Greg's open-plan ground floor, the kids' area isn't far away. A cheeky Arthur chuckles in front of a mass of toys in the background.
Living room / Kitchen
That's a wrap! When the family are filming for ITV's The Mummy Diaries with Sam's family, things are bound to get a little hectic - it's only right that Nelly steps in as director before things get out of control in the Faiers/Shepherd household.
Nelly's tiny furniture
Here's a much younger Nelly looking angelic whilst eating a fruit yoghurt at her very own dining table in the kitchen.
Nelly's tiny furniture
Nelly has her own miniature sofa - and it's even a neutral crushed velvet to match mum and dad's. Totally adorable.
Nelly's tiny furniture
Not content with just her own sofa, Nelly has her own pink kitchen, too! The kitchen is complete with a fridge, sink, hobs oven and toaster. When can we come round for dinner?!
Arthur's tiny furniture
Why stop at just one miniature kitchen?! Arthur has his own set, too. The head chef looks busy at work in this picture... licking the whisk... he's a pro.
Kitchen
Fans of ITVBe's The Mummy Diaries will remember the hilarious episode when Billie's husband Greg was made to cook after bragging about his chef skills.
Kitchen
Viewers will also remember there was a lot of confusion with cooking dinner and a rather hectic kitchen - but luckily it all worked out in the end.
Dining table
Nelly sits at the dining table to decorate digestive biscuits. We don't know what we love more - Nelly's fluffy pom-pom hair band or the pretty Emma Bridgewater heart plate.
Dining table
Mum Billie can be seen cracking on with some admin at the dining table in this pic, with Nelly's cute mini sofa again in the background.
Dining table
This family sure do know how to pull off a good roast dinner - with a table set for three people, we're wondering if there's room for us to come along next time?
Stairs
Back to the entrance hall and we have Nelly striking her best pose whilst dressed as a LOL doll. Billie's mini-me pouts in front of the stairs.
Stairs
An adorable Arthur looks mischievous standing at the top of the stairs with striped fabric on his head. At the top of the stairs, the landing splits into two sides of the house.
Nelly's bedroom
Wow. We want Nelly's bedroom and yes, we know we're meant to be adults. But seriously, who could resist that comfy bed and grey/pink theme?
Master bedroom
But that doesn't stop her from getting into Billie and Greg's double bed. Comfy bed? Check. Pyjamas on? Check. Biscuit to snack on? Check. Nelly, we're totes jel.
Master bedroom
And the apple doesn't fall far from the tree - like Nelly, mum Billie loves to get comfy under the cover with a warm brew in hand.
Master bedroom
Billie and Arthur have a matching smile in this picture - and matching pyjamas for that matter. We need those in our life, now.
Master bedroom
Billie shows off more of the master bedroom - and her lush outfit, of course - in this mirror selfie. The mum of two has co-ordinated the silver decor throughout her bedroom.
Wardrobe
Nelly is playing in Dad Greg's wardrobe - sorry Nelly, we don't think any of those trousers are going to fit. We'd stick with the pink hoodie and leggings!
Bathroom
Nelly contemplates brushing her teeth in this cute snap. Billie's plush white sink is complete with a Jo Malone hand wash and mural mirror on the wall above.
Bathroom
Nelly plays with educational number toys whilst havin a splash in the bath. We love Billie and Greg's genius bathroom toy storage.
Bathroom
How adorable is this snap of baby Nelly sharing a bath with mum Billie?! The couple's oldest child is a total mini-me of Billie. And CHECK OUT that TV in the background. Bathroom goals!
Garden
Billie's garden is huge - and perfect for a competitive snow ball fight in this picturesque snowy scene. Not one to get covered in cold snow, Nelly wraps up warm in a faux-fur coat and pom-pom wooly hat.
Garden
Billie and Greg's garden looks just as great in Summer, too. How perfect is that decking for a good old British bbq with family?!
Billie told the same publication, "There’s only one neighbour to the side of us and he had a lot of reasons as to why he didn’t want us to go ahead, but it was getting a bit silly in the end.
"It’s been a very long journey already and it’s about to get even more pressurised once the builders start work."
While we wait for their new house to be complete why not check out the home they're currently living in.
