The mum-of-two took daughter Nelly, seven and son Arthur, four, to explore the property for the first time in months.
In the clip, the kids were seen playing in the newly renovated swimming pool and the living area which is yet to be fitted with carpet and furniture.
The property which is still under construction, appears to be coming along nicely - with some rooms more completed that others.
Alongside the clip, Billie penned: "Remember why you started ✨

"For the first time in a few months we took Nelly and Arthur to see the progress of the new house (we haven’t taken them for a while because it’s been like a building site and they wasn’t that interested 😂) but today they was soooo excited 🥺♥️.
"Building a house is not easy … but seeing their little faces today makes it all worth while ☺️♥️ Not long now my little darlings 🤞🏼✨❤️ @homewiththesheps."
Billie's sister Sam Faiers was quick to comment, writing: "Look at the beauty coming together ❤️ a whole new chapter of life."
Last month, Billie paid a visit to the property today, but admitted they are still a long way off.
She told her fans: “House update. Everyone has been working so hard and we are getting there… we actually have a house. We still have a long way to go but I can’t tell you how good it feels to see it all coming together.”
Billie and husband Greg Shepherd, 35, bought the four-bedroom 1920s property in Brentwood, Essex, for £1.4 million in January 2020.
The couple had plans to transform the run-down space into their dream five bed home with an eye-watering renovation that included a two-storey extension, gym, games room and huge walk-in wardrobe.
But they were refused planning permission amid uproar from the neighbours who claimed the works were “excessive” and not in keeping with other properties on the street.
Billie and Greg went away and modified the plans, which were then approved but the experience has meant they longer speak to their new neighbours.
Asked if they had built bridges, Billie said: “No, actually.
“We don’t go there much, to be honest, so we’ve not seen anyone. But it’s just not a great start, is it?”
She continued: “The house is so old, whoever was going to buy it was going to have to renovate.

"There’s only one neighbour to the side of us and he had a lot of reasons as to why he didn’t want us to go ahead, but it was getting a bit silly in the end.”
The house is now starting to resemble the plans and they are hoping to move in by spring of this year.
