• Like that a lot, but the beam in your "now" pic looks original? You can't remove that if so!

    Also, thought that chair was a Rob Parry for a second, that would have really weirded me out as have one in my living room, obviously.

  • It’s actually not original and was a later addition - the house is also the same age as yours it just happens to have been built as a wooden beamed cottage originally and then extended on over the years - meaning it’s got a nice size and character but the spaces feel poorly connected and under utilised for modern living. I think for the fire I’d like to keep the carved beam and just extend it on either end or move it to somewhere else.

    Chair is Robin Day

  • OH FFS, this is getting weird.

    If the beam isn't original then no worries, I would still be tempted to keep it but also yeah, not original so who cares.

    Love the window bench seat.

    One terrazzo tile has already broken and I'm not sure how, I feel this was a mistake.
