Our Big Build :-)

Thanks Kazz,

Another pic of the light....the doors still have a protective film over the glass and we will remove this once the floor is laid.

The stairs will be oiled (spindles) and the top rail we will wax.

It is nice having an open dining/kitchen

Oh and I will get a new silver mirror for the hallway

Dramatic and amazing transformation to both properties, I am very envious!

Wow what a fantastic job you have both done!

Love your transformation, you must be so pleased with it...did it take long?

took about 15 months but we only had my best mate doing the building work, had a plumber doing the CH (quite complicated big thermal store, underfloor heating 3 seperate heating zones, oil boiler and a log burner with a back boiler) Also had a couple of sparkies as it was a total rewire.

Just got to build an extention now which will be 3 or 4 years away as we could do with 1 more bedroom (its 3 bed now) and a seperate lounge (currently kitchen/dinner/lounge)

yep all our own design, but to be honest it wasn't difficult as the house is very narrow so lent itself to how we designed it. Upstairs there is 3 bedrooms (1 ensuite nice big walk in shower) and a large bathroom (spa bath another large walk in shower)
