Zomg. This thread needs more pictures.

Interior is almost done!!!

Painting like nuts I am (was up at 5am and painting by 6am this morning... canny sleep at the moment) as carpets going down on 31st!

This morning I have to drain a radiator as there's a leak going on there which is blooming annoying. Flipping heavy rad too so me Pa said he'd pop over and help out (whoop whoop!)

Monday I will finish off glossing (BOO HISS BOO) and then crack on with tiling kitchen walls and out back floor.

THEN!

Tuesday... get this... I'M GETTING MY SOFA! AAAAAIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!

Amazing! I've not had a sofa in over a year now! Amaaaaazing!

Hahaha!

Front room is painted a crown Isobelle colour which is gorgeous... have to finish cutting in. Linky to colour: Isobelle Colour


It's going to look stunning with the following furniture in it (yet to be delivered):




Other double is a almond whitey colour with nice oak furniture to go in and then the study/small double is a mellow sage colour.

I will get proper pictures Sunday and show you where I am at!

Looking at buying another property now... although it looks like funding maybe an issue with this one still going! If I don't get it - bum. If I do.. WEH HEY! I will be *the* excited!

Oh and exciting news too... I've currently only spent (including carpets which aren't down yet) £14k. The garden and exterior will possibly be £6k but I think more around the £5k.

I personally thought it would cost about £20k to do up... but chucked on another £15k to be sure buuut... I'm £10k under budget really

Amazing. Happy days! Only difference is it's a hard market at the moment. I have to say though, my place is starting to look like the mutts nuts and after viewing various about of similar styles it will put them to shame.

Haaaaaaappppppppppppppppppppy DAAAAAAAAAYS!

Want to give me a quote for sorting my place out?!

Nice work though given the state the place was in when you moved in.

So what is the plan? Live in it? Rent it out furnished? Sell it?
