Renovating a 100-year-old semi-d in Co Antrim

When John and Sinead Cullen decided to buy a 100 year old house, they embarked on an Art Deco renovation journey that took over their lives. 

John and I had been living in London for a few years when John’s mum got ill,” says Sinead. “We made the quick decision to come back home so we looked for properties whilst still in London. Belfast was our preferred choice, as it still had the hustle and bustle of city life and our new jobs would be based there.”
