Wanting a project, we looked at auction listings and found an apartment in Pollokshields, Southside. It was my first time at a property auction. To make things worse, it emerged we had bought only half the building, so we spent the next six months buying up the other two derelict units. It’s a special place – if you’re going to accidentally buy a house, you couldn’t do it somewhere better. Given the chance to go back to that auction, I’d put my hand up for this house, no question.
