Looks amazing - very impressive! We're just about to start our own tired old house transformation, so this thread has been really useful.
You mentioned a budget of £120k in a previous post. Did you actually manage all of that - the extension, roof, windows, render etc within that. If you did I will be mightily relieved!

It’ll be more like £160k all in (he says).
As it’s wales, I’m inventively on the side of a hill, so in order to have 5m of patio area the other side of the extension we had to remove 800-t of soil which wasn’t cheap. That in addition to the new retaining walls, steps and 100m2 patio were a significant additional cost when compared to flat ground.
There was areas would could’ve saved on, but it’ll be our family home for the foreseeable.
We just want to get back in there now!
