After moving into the rural pad on the outskirts of Glasgow, he discovered it smelled of cigarette smoke and dog and has described it as a 'hell hole'
Lewis Capaldi has revealed he can't find any builders to renovate a £1.6million farmhouse which he bought on the advice of Ed Sheeran.
Capaldi, 26, originally from Whitburn, West Lothian, said the house is now a "shell" and he is struggling to convince any workmen to take on the project. He said he will need his upcoming second album to sell well so he can pay for the renovations. "We keep on finding builders and they keep on being like 'Nah, not for us'. People are turning me down. I'm offering to pay the money and they're like 'No, not for us, that's not the one'. So Ed has still burdened my life to an incredible degree."
Last year, Capaldi was given permission to build an extension to the property which will include a swimming pool, changing rooms, a spa and sauna. The star had already been given the green light to convert old stables into an exercise room and a gym.
