Landing

The landing is looking good with the beams exposed and theatre type spotlights. Again doors are needed and will change the look completely.

I cleaned up the beams and finished them with beeswax.

We decided to add a cupboard to help with the storage issues we seem to have, I was told I should have done this before we plastered everything but of course I knew better and didn't think we would need one. Anyway looking back I should have done this before we plastered everything!!

The cupboard should be getting skimmed this week and I should just need to fit shelves and doors then. Still have the balustrade to finish, so some temporary bits of wood are in place in a vain attempt to stop any tumbles over the edge. No injuries so far though!

We jazzed it up by adding a large stags head made up from pre-cut ply wood sections. Nice!

En Suite Complete

The en-suite has been completed for a while and is more of a wetroom, where the shower flows straight onto the tiled floor and drains through the specialist wetroom system.

The tiles are large 60cm square in a charcoal colour with a dark grey grout. The tiles on the back wall are glass with a pink painted backing and the same dark grey grout.

We got an illuminated mirror cabinet from ebay and a white sink and wc from Rak ceramics. The Hudson Reed Mistral shower is fantastic with large top shower head and multiple water jets.

Here is a night view of the outside of the house, one of them done with a panorama setting on my phone.

Lounge Update

We have had walls plastered, painted in fetching bright white for now, and carpets fitted for a few months now. The big red fire sits on a granite base and looks cool, and kicks out some good heat too.

We are yet to get doors and blinds and we badly need some storage to put books and things in.

The room gets loads of daylight and great views but still a lot of finishing touches to do.
