This is what it looked like on Monday...
And this is what we ended up with today - Friday.
We have a front door opening which is lovely and wide for a double door entrance:
Large full height window space in the lounge:
Double aspect windows - one to be bi fold doors in kitchen/family room:
A back door, garage door and double garage almost completed:
It's just so wonderful to be able to walk into our new house - designed by us! We're on holiday next week so Mum and Dad are in charge. Sheldon is mainly focusing on starting the walls on their plot next week so it will be all change when we return. We're also having the rest of the garden fence completed next week to give us garden privacy.
We had the log burner fitted in the cottage on Monday. We are looking forward to lighting it tomorrow evening and curling up in front of a film. By the time we move into the new house, we will hopefully be expert fire lighters, as the first time we lit it on Tuesday, Dave failed to keep it going.
Astley Kitchens came to see us and Mum and Dad last night. We are steering towards a German wood kitchen design and he recommended Prentice Kitchens, http://www.prentice.co.uk/, in Tamworth. They do some really nice modern wood ranges so we need to go and see their show room as soon as possible. The main thing is getting the kitchen layout sorted asap so that we know where the electrics need to go.
