Jos & Jo's Trip to Europe

Neglected Laundry and Cabinetry

Just a quick update - things are moving along with the house so I thought I would update everyone with a few pictures after our visit tonight.

The cabinetry has arrived and been positioned, ready for installation:



The cornices have been completed throughout the house; here you can see a finshed section, looking towards the front door:

And the laundry - not really very remarkable, except that it is quite large:

I have also forgotten the garage - which I will include in the blog next time.

Walls Up

The builders are moving fast now; they have only taken 3 days to put up the walls, ceilings and insulation.  Its amazing how quickly they do this.  I expect that the cornices and skirting will go on next.  The interior is looking more like a house.

This is the grand entrance

 Maddy's room on the ground floor with ensuite and walk-in-robe

Loungeroom:

The stairs will go here; the small doorway to the right of the photo will lead to a storage space under the stairs from the laundry

 Now we are upstairs in the family room, looking towards the spare bedroom and bathroom

The other side of the family room where the stairs will be

Ahhhh.... a lovely double shower

As you leave the master bedroom, we have more storage space - for the many jackets that Jos needed in Holland for the bitterly cold European Winters, but doesn't need in Australia
