Next up was converting the existing garage in order to extend the hallway to the rear of the house and provide a new location for the WC/utility/study

Doorway bricked up



dot & dab pulled off on the kitchen side (more acros on the garage side!)



steels in

roof trusses starting to go on for both house and garage









Lats and membrane going on

Looks great. Have you made any progress buying the strip of land?

No progress with buying the land unfortunately, in reality our mind has been fully on the build,

I would like to say a thanks to the PH'er who sorted out the land registry details for us (apologies I have forgotten their name)

It is owned by the council however we will look further into this once moving onto the externals
