There are choices at a time that are considered silly, but it is true that in life no one knows anything.
More than 20 years ago, mother Jane Beck (then 34 years old) was scolded for slapping for putting four young children into austerity when deciding to buy an old, shabby house for only £ 59. (equivalent to 1.7 million dong at the current exchange rate). Yet the money to buy a house is still considered expensive compared to the common ground in rural areas.

Living in a clean city, the mother’s decision to bring her children to the hometown has faced many objections from relatives and family, but Jane still insists on doing her own will.

Jane Beck spent 2 million dong to buy a shabby old house for her children to live in – Artwork.

A single mother puts four children in the back of a caravan (mobile garage) that travels nearly 300 kilometers from Berkshire county to western Wales (England) to start a new life.

However, everything was not as Jane had imagined, the house was so shabby that it made her feel discouraged.

Jane is currently the owner of a quilting business.

“It was really dark during that time, and my courage almost hit the limit,” says Jane. The first night was very cold. My mother and I sleep on a mattress on the floor in the front bedroom. In the days that followed, it felt like we were lost in the 1930s. There was no electricity or water, the roof was hole-ridden and the toilet was outside. There was even a stream of water flowing from the backyard, through the house, and straight to the main door. The inside of the house is dark. The garden was very large, with yew and laurel trees obscuring the small windows of the house.

And then mother and daughter Jane literally got through the dark days. She gradually developed a company specializing in the production of cotton and hired farms to raise sheep for fur.

When the job was fine, Jane began to renovate the house. She did not work at once, but kept doing small things. Up to now, 22 years have passed, the house has been put on a new shirt and also, its value has been raised significantly.

In February last year, the house was valued at 450,000 pounds (equivalent to 13.3 billion dong). This price is 7,627 times the initial amount that Jane spent to buy the house.

Jane said: “I paid £ 59 for the house in 1997, when people thought it was too expensive for a country house. It was valued at around £ 450,000 last February. before I create the landscape for the back garden.

The inside of the house had been refurbished by Jane.

The house is said to have been around since 1870, so Jane wants to preserve its inherent ancient features.

Now, the house has a sun terrace, a hot tub and a sauna hut in the back garden, and Jane’s favorite area is the kitchen.

“I love the light of the evening shining through my front window. In summer there are always flowers from the garden there and Binkie, my little dog, likes to sit in the sun and look out the window,” she said.

Jane runs her blanket business in a garden tin shack called Ty Zinc – she sits there and sells her products around the world.
