The House Projects Thread

[Ascender]

Looks like our planning application is going to be lodged this week, so then its a case of paying the fees and just sitting back for the next 9-12 weeks waiting for questions/objections etc.

Kitchen project is currently into its second week. Dodgy wiring and four floor coverings (Lino on top of laminate on top of two layers of vinyl tiles!) meant a few days lost to unexpected remedial work.
Because we opted for quartz worktops they can't be measured for and cut until the units are in place. Walls can't be tiled until the worktops are in, so it's looking like we won't be finished until the end of the month.

Wow

Interesting.

Is it “just” the Tower you have? Floors below are already occupied?

[Rich B]

Yeah, more details than just a teasing photo needed!

[Foz]

It’s over 5 floors,
Entry floor (top floor of the conversion from 1984)
Converted roof space accessed via a spiral stair
Shower and sauna level
Tower room

There also under the actual tower itself but that’s not a usable space.

It’s 2000 sq/ft and 3 bedrooms, will sleep 8 I think.

Looks shit

Intimidating as a project?

what are you doing with it - renting it out, refurbing it, living in it, flipping it?

[Foz]

Refurbing it then short term rentals.

well don't waste time here sharing cool details and chatting about the proposed scheme - there's work to be done!

[Mito Man]

Looos great. I wouldn’t want to walk up all those stairs a million times during a renovation though

[Foz]

Painters in tomorrow and joiners starting Saturday…
