While it is not entirely finished, we have moved in. We are keen to start living in the property so that we get a sense of what might need to be changed (while we still have some opportunity to change it!).
In July 2012, we thought the end date might be around March 2014. At the time, I remember adding an exclamation mark as I thought it was such a long way away (see here on the About page). Well, I guess it was at the time.
We still have the master bedroom to finished as well as the two attached ensuites, but the other bedrooms are finished and there are working bathrooms too! The ground source heat pump seems to be settling down and we have heat and hot water (most of the time). We have lights despite having a shortage of light switches. However, you can always revert to an iPhone or an iPad if you can’t find the switch (but this does get annoying rather quickly!).
The kitchen is still a bit of a challenge. The granite sinks haven’t shown up yet, so we have no worksurfaces. And this means no water (hot or cold) or hob. However, we seem to be managing for the time being although I am guessing that this will soon becoming frustrating.
Of course the outside is still to do, but there again it isn’t the summer yet!
