Candy and her family bought the huge home, to bring the \u201cold back to life\u201d.<\/p>\n

Candy is documenting the renovation project on TikTok and has revealed a shocking discovery.<\/p>\n

After thinking her husband\u2019s farts were smelling out their bedroom, Candy then found something horrifying under the carpet.<\/p>\n

Candy said: \u201cThe carpet is so tightly glued to the floor that your feet stick.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat have we found under the carpet in the house we\u2019re renovating?<\/p>\n

\u201cUh oh! There\u2019s something under the carpet.\u201d<\/p>\n

The video shows Candy’s partner lifting up the grey carpet, revealing what Candy describes as \u201ca secret man hole\u201d.<\/p>\n

Candy asks: \u201cWhat\u2019s inside? Does it smell?\u201d<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cThat smells so damp.\u201d<\/p>\n

As they open the rusted drain, Candy starts heaving at the gross smell.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s revealed will shock you – it\u2019s literally a drainage system.<\/p>\n

Yep, you read that correctly. A drainage system under her bedroom carpet.<\/p>\n

Covered in rust, cobwebs and filth, Candy was horrified at the discovery.<\/p>\n

Candy said: \u201cThat\u2019s a poo pipe in our bedroom.\u201cTo think we were going to leave the carpet in our bedroom until we could afford to change.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWho just covers this with carpet?!!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh my goodness, oh my goddess, we\u2019d of had poos just floating beneath us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Candy told her followers that the house had not been used for 10 years and was converted to offices 30 years ago, with seven toilets in the next room over.<\/p>\n

The family didn\u2019t get the house surveyed so they were not aware of this drainage system before purchasing the house.<\/p>\n

The horrifying video has racked up a whopping 1.3M views, 24.2k likes and 945 comments, with many disgusted by Candy\u2019s under-floor find.<\/p>\n

One user commented: \u201cCall Thames Water quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another added: \u201cWow! AS IF someone just covered it with carpet.\u201d<\/p>\n

A third said: \u201cVery scary to think that\u2019s been there 500 years and no one has ever noticed it when they\u2019ve lived in there before\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Candy reassured people that \u201cIt\u2019s all under control.\u201d<\/p>\n
