THE BEST BITS

+ Everything. We love living here. It’s fabulous. I love that I can wear normal clothes now, year round. I no longer have to wear hats and rugs all winter.

+ Renovating is amazing. Planning for, and knowing, the outcome can only be good.

+ Every day I remember how we once lived here and I am just so grateful for the transformation.

+ We love spending time in the garden. My plan is to fill every space over time so that you never have to weed. I love fresh flowers. I keep all my neighbours supplied with fresh flowers.

+ We paid exactly what we expected to pay for the project. We don’t regret any purchases. Perhaps the only thing I would change is to have a picture window in the lounge rather than French doors. It’s a beautiful outlook into the garden and we don’t really use the doors as we have another set in the dining room.
