A woman who accepted her economic state, Nomhle, spotted and looked at an abandoned home with new eyes. She became eager to turn it into her dream home and purchased it. 

Nomhle shared the footage of the home and the rawness of its age. The home told a story of its age and the endurance of the different weather over the years by the deep cracks that peaked through the old paint.

The previous owners revealed their economic state with the interior as the walls were primarily naked and grey, the bathtub and toilet pot were turning brown, and the curtains had given up the purpose of holding on to the railing.

Nomhle started by buying building materials to support the old building's infrastructure and building a yard to secure her home. She also bought new aluminium windows and painted the house white. The lady added new doors and tiles to bring the home to life.
