Watch Grand Designs: The Street HD online free

Grand Designs: The Street has been an incredible journey for the past five years in the making. 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 eventually be the largest self-build project in the UK. This innovative study is being carried out at a prime site close to Bicester, which is only 23 kilometers (14 miles) from Oxford and less than an hour away from London by rail. The local council purchased the site from the MOD, and rather than selling it to a developer for a quick profit, they pre-approved the outline planning for the land, and then they sold plots to the general people for approximately one hundred thousand pounds apiece. Every household is aiming to build their home for less money than it would cost them to buy a comparable home in the neighborhood, as the average budget for each house 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 in their choice of architectural style and building approach. Throughout the course of the series, cameras will follow these courageous self-builders as they create their one-of-a-kind homes, transforming a field into a street made entirely of self-built houses. There is a lot of potential upside, but there is also some potential downside. In the course of this endeavor, these trailblazers will be injured, structural disasters will occur, and they will become physically and financially exhausted. The stress of concentrating on one's personal development will result in the demise of one's connections and relationships. Those who are committed to seeing the projects through to their conclusion will be rewarded with stunning homes that are uniquely suited to their requirements and will be located on a street that is unlike any other in the UK.
