Inside Love Island star Lucie Donlan’s incredible Cornish cottage renovation worth thousands in before and after pics

LOVE Island beauty Lucie Donlan has revealed the stunning transformation of her cosy beach-side home.

The surfer, 25, returned to her native Cornwall following her stint on the ITV2 show in 2019.

A year later, Lucie started dating Love Island 2020 hunk Luke Mabbott, 24, and the lovebirds have been going strong ever since.

While splitting their time across the country, the model has undertaken an amazing re-vamp of a traditional Cornish cottage - and has finally taken to TikTok to share the results.

Lucie captioned her video: "When people ask 'how's the cottage renovation going?'"

The clip opened with the star make-up free and twirling around a bare-walled lounge.

The white space had been stripped fully of soft furnishings with the concrete floor - and Lucie's outfit - covered with splatters of paint.

She then captured the rest of the home - including the downstairs loo and huge staircase - all white-painted but in need of some TLC.

Bags of cement and concrete filled the floors and wires hung from the ceilings.

Yet after capturing the tradesmen hard at work, Lucie flipped to scenes showing her home fully transformed.

A fire was burning in the original brick fireplace surround and the staircase bannister had been painted in fresh white.

A snug L-shaped sofa sat pride of place in the lounge while a candle burned for an extra homely feel.

The star has chosen a perfect country kitchen with white cabinets and wooden worktops, and shelves filled with jars of goodies.

She kept the bedroom minimal and fresh, with white walls and a wooden lampshade to match the door.

Lucie's bathroom also gives a nod to Cornwall's coastal geography with a ship's wheel mounted above the bath.

Meanwhile, Lucie also shares a motor home with Luke - and the pair have travelled the world in their van.

Away from her stunning pad, the star recently wowed fans as she posed in a retro swimsuit.

She also proved she was ready for Christmas as she showed off her sizzling figure in festive seasonal lingerie.
