Wales Couple Gets A Shock Upon Finding This Under The Carpet Of Their New Home
The couple was shocked to find luxury oak parquet flooring on the entire house.

One couple in Wales discovered something quite unexpected under the carpet in their new home. The couple bought a new house and decided to renovate it before moving in. But, during the renovation, they came across something hidden under the flooring, which left them stunned.

As per The Sun, Anya Clements and her partner Calum Jones bought a new house in Cardiff, Wales in the month of August last year. It has four rooms. The couple decided to renovate them. But, the lucky homeowners discovered something unexpectedly under the rotting red carpet. As per reports, the couple discovered £12,000 (Rs 12 lakh approx) worth of flooring under their carpet.

During the renovation, Anya Clements was shocked to find luxury oak parquet flooring on the entire house. Generally such flooring costs between £20- £80 per sq (Rs 2,100- Rs 8,400 approx). In an interview with the media, she said, “I was over the moon. We saved lots of time and money by not getting new flooring and it was the floor we were going to get there anyway!”

Initially, Anya was unsure about the true value of the floor and decided to get a second opinion from her parents, who confirmed it, which left her completely speechless. She expressed that the floor was beautiful and quite similar to what they were going to opt for. Hence, they loved it. They have begun to sand it by hand and will varnish it themselves. The couple are doing the whole renovation by themselves to keep the cost down. Reportedly, the luxury flooring has not cost her a penny yet.

As per media reports, parquet flooring has been in use since the 16th century. During the 1930s these carpets were a cheap option for flooring. But gradually they began to disappear. In recent decades, they have made a comeback and are trendy due to their rustic look and because it lasts a long time.

What's your reaction?
