Introducing myself and going to use this thread as a little prompt to get going with fixing up our house.
Its our 3rd fixer upper so we know whats needed. However, its our first fixer upper with 3 kids.
We moved in almost 3 years ago and have been living in it as a 3 bed due to the 4th room looking and feeling like a prison cell. Thats where i am right now getting going on being able to move a kid in there and get going. Thankfully I did pull my finger out enough to turn the garden into somewhere you could relax in as it was completely overgrown to the extent I had to hack my way in to even start. Luckilly done before COVID. All of the plastering / painting / chippy decoration work ill do myself but there is a long list of other stuff to do.
Repoint the whole front.
New roof
New / refurb windows.
Knock through Kitchen to dining room.
New Kitchen
New lean too (mrs calls it an orangarie) in a scandi ply style.
Decorate top to bottom.
Hope I can at last show a little progress.....
