House Renovation - Planning, Planning, Planning.

Hi Guys,

What do you think of the new house?

It has all started, the builders are in and the ceilings are missing! They have estimated that Phase One, the renovation of the main house will be done in 4 to 6 weeks! Once it's done we can move in while they continue with the extension.

Mr Berto has been working hard at preparing plans for the builders to work to. We will be using an architect for the extension but the main house they just needed a guide.

Here are our plans.

The wall between the existing bathroom and bedroom 1 was made of concrete block and the floor was bowing under weight of it. Due to this it had to be removed which was good because we couldn't decide wether to have the master bedroom as part of the extension or not so it made our decision for us.

Now that has been decided we are moving the bathroom to bedroom 3 and then will have an ensuite in the master bedroom.  This does mean that the house is temporarily going from a 3 bed to a 2 bed but once the extension is built we will have two additional rooms. 

I have already started planning the interior for each room of the main house. The only thing I'm struggling with is what Kitchen I want. I still have a bit of time but there are so many choices.

Its all very exciting!

I will be back soon with the next instalment.

Ciao for now

Love Mrs Berto x
