This weeks progress has been massive as they have completed our brickwork. We now have only the final payment to make on handover day so it feels like we may soon be in our new house. It's funny how you imagine it and then when it becomes reality things look a little different. Also, hindsight is a wonderful thing as you realise you should in fact have spent the money on the things you chose to scrimp on.
Our kitchen bench is also in and I love how my kitchen is coming together!
When i look at the front of the house I am disappointed at the dark whole of a doorway. Perhaps it is because I cannot read plans or because I didn't look closely enough but I imagined there was a pillar between the garage and the house and not a solid wall. This now makes the entryway look so dark. I am hoping when the render is done in Surfmist and the front door is painted Surfmist also that I like how it all looks. I am so glad I didn't go with a wood stained door as it would have looked so dark. We chose the Birmingham facade which was one of the two included options and I wish now I had spent the money on an alternative. I can't change it now, but I just hope it looks ok when it is all finished.
Aside from that I just love everything I have seen so far in our house and I want it finished!
