Channel 4's A Place in the Sun couple thought they had found their dream home but were left shocked when they realised all was not as it seemed.The popular reality show, which was hosted by Lee Juggurnauth on Tuesday, helps house-hunters find their dream home in the sun with couple Greg and Reda searching for a foreign property with a maximum budget of £100,000.
The duo were keen on a three-bedroom Costa Blanca property that boasted sweeping Spanish countryside views and had plenty of room for a vineyard.Things were going well for the couple and they quickly fell for the third property which was a Albaida-based home with three-bedrooms and four acres of land surrounding it.Priced at £85,470, the couple bought it for £83,760 and looked forward to enjoying a sun-soaked life, the Mirror reports.However, things took a quick turn for the worse when they found out that their incredible new Spanish home was "too good to be true".
After their purchase, they consulted local authorities about adding a swimming pool which was when a shocking revelation came to light.They discovered that their dream home was located on "industrial" land meaning their perfect sun-lit life remained a distant dream.The disappointed couple explained: "So our solicitor started doing some enquiries about the pool that had been half built on the property. "In the process of speaking to the local town hall about this, it was discovered that the land on which the property sat was categorised as 'industrial' which meant that at any time the council could build a road through it, even if a few years later.
We couldn't take that risk." Choosing not to be discouraged by their property fail, the couple returned for another search after the episode was filmed.
