Week 5 - Pink timber galore!

We've got a house! Well... lots of pink timber in a sort of house shape. Very EXCITING! We were just amazed at how much progress the builders had made at this point - its just flying up.

This picture is taken from the living areas, looking back at the cottage, which contains the bedrooms and bathrooms.



This is the front door! There's still a little bit to be added in, but it's starting to take shape.



Here's the side of the living pavilion - you can see the cut out in the framing for the long window that sits on top of the bench in the kitchen. The piles remaining are for the deck that goes to the front door from the street.



And here's me - enjoying the view of the backyard from the lounge. Yes, we're missing the french doors, and the roof and the floor - but still, I'm pretty happy with how its turning out.

  1. How excellent! Although I don't quite get it... is there a garage in front? (why is the door in the middle of th ehouse?)

  2. No garage in front - just a large bay window! The original entry to the house was always on the side - we've just moved it further down to "the portico", which links the new extension with the old (now new) cottage. More pictures coming which may ease your confusion!
