The beginning - May 2014

Finally the proud owner of an old and slightly wrecked house, I'm going to post photos of the progress made turning it into somewhere I want to live, as I have promised friends & relations. Here goes:


Alexander House

For those who don't know, a joke between me & Chris was that we would buy a B&B when we retired, and call the house 'Alexander House'.  So, in my mind at least, this is Alexander House, though I'm not so sure about the B&B... 



Grand Entrance




Sitting Room




Dining Room




Study


This room was the bathroom, so there will be quite a bit of work needed here.



 Kitchen

And this was originally the dining room...



Utility Room




The Old Kitchen


...will disappear - I want more garden.



 Main Bedroom




Shower Room



Guest Bedroom 1




Guest Bedroom 2




Bathroom





Work is going to start on the 9th of June, I'll try and keep the progress posted.
