It's been a while since I shared an update.
B the Builder and his team have been working in the void which is to become the new bedroom. The window went in in July, and since then, the team has begun the difficult job of putting in the ceiling and side cladding.
As with most things, the devil's in the detail, and this is no different. The new window needed a lot of attention. And a lot of cutting and pasting to transform it from this:
To this.
So most of the ceiling is in and the dormer window is looking more and more like it will become a favourite spot on sunny winter afternoons. Hopefully, the electrics this or next week and soon after, the side cladding and the bathroom reconfiguration.
And, of course, painting: white ceilings and wood work, off-white walls and a very pale beige floor. The colours are picked out.
That, however, is not all: the stairs have to be unpicked: the house plan and reality were quite different. Lessons learned, and right now, we are focusing on reimagining the void and making that functional, not to mention liveable.
Until next time
