British actor Kit Harington, who starred in Game of Thrones, and his wife, actress Rose Leslie, have received permission to renovate their old mansion in Suffolk. In September 2020, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child, so they plan to complete the work by his birth. Writes about this Daily Mail.
The farmhouse, worth £ 1.8 million (181.3 million rubles), dates from the 16th century. The building has a thatched roof with a huge hornet’s nest underneath, Leslie said. The spouses are obliged to make repairs very carefully, since the house is included in the list of cultural heritage. Also on the territory of 3.2 hectares there is a swimming pool, stables, tennis court, banquet hall and lawn for playing croquet.
The work will concern the new kitchen and bathroom in the master bedroom. The kitchen will be made in a theatrical style, so a podium will be installed in its center. A wood-burning stove will also appear in the room. The project cost is about 100 thousand pounds (10 million rubles).
To enjoy the Victorian bathroom, the couple plans to install a new boiler and radiators. The couple also decided to remove the floor and lay new pipes in the house. The total cost of the renovation is likely to exceed around £ 500,000 (RUB 50.4 million).
