HONESTY BOX

-

+ What was the most exciting moment during the build? Bridget: When the bedroom carpet had been laid and we could move in. Seeing the final product come together just how we’d envisioned it was magic. + Worst experience? When the first coat of paint went on the exterior and it didn’t look right so we had to get the painters to repaint. It was pretty stressful having to choose another colour in a short time frame, but fortunatel­y we chose the perfect colour second time round (Dulux ‘Ohai’) – and a lot of people now knock on our door to ask what it is!

+ Anything you’d do differentl­y? We’d have pitched ceilings in the master bedroom and ensuite because they provide a greater sense of space.
