Starting in 2006 with a few ideas but no real vision, finally engaging our architect in 2007, numerous changes to plans, procrastinating, re-baselining budgets, selecting fixtures, engaging builders and moving out in November 2010....it's great to be back.
Take a look at our November 2010 post to get a real idea of the changes.
Next project (aside from unpacking)? Spending more money (Megan) and buying new furniture. Then we'll be ready for a proper housewarming!
Light and open...awesome pendant lights
Our bedroom in the treetops - bring on the warmer weather!
Yes - we have hot water in the kitchen for the first time since early 2007...
Can you spot the pussycat door?
Way too many interesting windows, curves and angles
Downstairs bathroom - can't wait to try the freestanding tub
No more 'stairs of death' in the middle of the house to contend with!
Action shot (although Miles is sleeping on the job. Again)
Even the old upstairs living space is much lighter with a new lick of paint, new windows and dark stained floorboards...no more cream and pine!
We won't miss the stencilled concrete...
...or the sloping side yard, which has finally been levelled off!
