Love It Or List It viewers branded a mother 'miserable' and 'impossible to please' after she refused to consider moving house - despite her original home having an vast array of problems. Shaun and Sarah's £432,000 three-storey Victorian semi-detached house in Whitley Bay featured on the latest episode of the Channel 4 show - as they decided whether to stay in their current home ('love it') or move house ('list it').

Despite being just minutes from the beach and boasting an enviably designed interior, their suburban seaside abode was packed with problems that made managing family life with five children nearly impossible. The couple had spent five years battling to decide whether to keep their home, which featured a tiny two-person kitchen with no room for a dishwasher, minuscule garden the 'size of a Dairylea slice' and singular bathroom shared between seven. In addition, the property was right nice to a Kwik Fit store.

Sarah and Shaun decided to enlist the help of property experts Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer with a budget of £70,000 for renovations on their current home, or £650,000 to find a new one. Sarah, who runs a reusable cloth nappy library, was firmly on team 'love it', insisting their current home had a 'lovely family feel'.

But viewers firmly disagreed with her decision, saying they would have 'moved in a heartbeat' due to the lack of space for her large family. Meanwhile, product marketing manager Shaun was convinced the family should 'list it' since there were 'a number of things in this house that just don't work' - namely the 'non-practical' facilities.
