So much to do and so little time!

 

You may have heard that we're in the midst of some more house renovations. What you probably don't know is just how big our reno project is. It's also going to be pretty fabulous once it is all finished. So here is what we have planned:

• We're tearing down the carport, shed and all the current retaining walls, fences etc. around the existing house.
• We're reroofing the existing house and adding a gabled alfresco entertaining area and a deck off the front of the house.
• We're building a detached addition which will include a massive garage and workshop, a games room, a guest room and a bathroom.
• We're putting in a small underground pool!
• And we're fencing in the entire yard so Nacho and Elliot can safely run amok!

Big plans, we know. And it will set us back a bit, but won't it be fun to visit once it's all finished?

Here are some of our early drawings (the actual plans are too complicated to post on the blog), but there are a couple of changes (like the fence will completely enclose the yard and the deck will wrap around the pool):
