A couple have transformed a £85k rotting 19th century church into £1.5M luxury home.

Sean, 61, and Debs Kennedy-Tallis, 54, bought the run down St Paul’s Church in Denholme, Yorkshire, UK in 2017 for a knock-down price at auction.

The couple got to work straight away spending £420,000 converting the damaged and roof-less 161-year-old building into into a four-bed family home.

They have now listed it for sale for £1.5 million.
