Week 15

Full of good intentions of keeping this blog up to date with photos, but this project is time consuming and along with family issues and the fact that I had a technical meltdown in accessing this blog, life has conspired against further updates. Apologies to family and friend followers.  So here we go with an update on the progress at Myddylton place.

The Kitchen now has a brick floor laid magnificently by Rob,  it enhances the whole room plus we have the Aga installed!!!!





Beautiful autumn weather means we have nearly finished the painting outside,  we have two new French windows plus a new utility room window so finally some symmetry is returning to the building, the Farrow's cream lifts the rear garden, so pleased with it.






So below we have the pole room in blue, this room feels much brighter, it the first room to have a colour on the walls closely followed landing room.   Several rooms are now ready for the final coat of paint including Emma's study and bedroom, the master bedroom, the family room,  the upper maltings are also nearly there.  On the ground floor we have a working cloakroom with doors plus hot water should we need it!!!  The office is next to be decorated







The office/study has now been finished as can be seen below quite a striking room should keep Tony awake when he is working in the evenings!!



The external paintwork is now finished love the colour, the patio/terrace should be started this week


The repair to the wall after the car accident is now finished externally and painted, so we are wind and water tight, all glass and leaded lights have been repaired . 

David's bathroom has been tiled and his bedroom is nearly painted. It feels so much brighter and spacious.
The wardrobe and shower have been fitted.





The flooring is being fitted this week then the other sanitary fittings can be installed.  Below is a picture of  Emma's new bathroom the units have been fitted, it is nearly tiled.  


We are hoping to move in before Christmas, seven weeks to go which should mean most of the decorating will be done. Curtains are arriving and carpet ordered.  The garden is hopefully taking shape in the middle of November and the kitchen should be installed at about the same time.  There are still lots of decisions to be made some paint colours, light fittings and various floor finishes.  However, it is starting to feel more like home and with every room that is decorated.
