Henry's room with flue removal and new bedroom visible through the window (Henry's room becomes a storage room and corridor) |
The wall through to the new part of the master bedroom has come down and the boarding is going onto the walls of the new extension. Lots of insulation panels have been delivered and those will go on next.
Below - View from master bedroom window
View through to master en-suite as boarding goes on and the rooms take shape.
Demolition of the old kitchen continues - we are keeping wood window sills and wood panels and details for re-use wherever we can. The original bench seated breakfast area has been carefully removed - we want to re-use the bench seating in the new kitchen - but look at the heating pipes we found underneath - a heated breakfast area - luxury!!!

Heating pipes revealed under the seats! |
View from what will be the location of the breakfast table through the new kitchen space. More of the old kitchen, and the big chimney breast, still to clear.
The two small bedrooms at the front of the house have been knocked together now and form one lovely light room. All th fittings from the built in wardrobes have been saved so that they can be re-used in our new dressing room.
Finally I have some more great vintage finds on Ebay too with the purchase of a walnut dressing table and stool - 1960s Gunther Hoffstead for Heals. This was from sweet-vintage.com
