A change of plan…

A slight change of plan..

Crossing out Plan A and writing Plan B on a blackboard.

After months of planning the structural work on our property the budget kept on increasing to the point where we would be spending way over what we could afford, with the risk of losing everything!

After many discussions between Tom and I, my parents, our neighbour who is a Interior designer/builder and estate agent we decided to scrap the original plan of moving the structural wall and making a sleeping area and focusing on the cosmetic side of it only.

Even doing the cosmetic work only the budget is now at its max – I’m so glad we reconsidered or we would be in a very difficult situation for sure!

So anyway, Plan B, the cosmetic work.

We are still getting new sash bay windows, new kitchen, bathroom, flooring etc. so still a pretty big job!  We have a pretty good square footage in the studio so we are planning on getting a bookcase to segregate the sleeping and lounging areas.

Something similar to the below:

The new designs for our kitchen are below! We have gone for a white gloss handless, integrated units and a Italian concrete/wooden effect worktop.

The work is scheduled to start on the 21st so will be moving very quickly from now on! I plan on documenting the progress so keep your eyes peeled for progress updates as well as items I have purchased along the way.
