This project is for a chap I've known for a few years and he's doing most of the work himself. It's an old 19th century cottage which he bought at auction and it's situated within a nice plot of land. He could have possibly developed a few houses on the land, but his preferrence was to renovate and extend the exiting building.
So far, he's gutted the existing building and built two 2 storey extentions on the back which is now at plate height. He's also had to instal 4k's worth of steel work because the rear of the existing house apparently collapsed during the gutting out stage.
Both of the new two 2 storey extensions will have a gable roof back into the existing main roof and a small flat roof in the middle.
Here's the project to date.
It's been a long time since I last wore my old chippy's belt, but I'm looking forward to this one. It will be ongoing (here n there) with all the internal 1st & 2nd fix work, plus the staircase and other creative features - hopefully.
I've promised to make a start in a bout 3 weeks - eek!
Should be just in time for the nice weather - on with the shorts and sandals!
