We’re nearly ready to start. We’ve found a bank happy to lend us the money to do the house. We’ve now just got to find somewhere to live for a while and completely clear out all the stuff under the house!
We’ve rented some storage space and this afternoon we made a significant dent in the ‘pile’.
We also have to get rid of the hardwood timber battens and doors. If anyone in Brisbane might know of someone who could use them, please let me know. The timber is in very good condition and was put up in the last ten years. We’ve also got to get rid of the front and back stairs too if anyone’s interested in them.
Congratulations! Let the fun begin!
Yea!!! Take LOTS of photos. How exciting!
There is nothing better than moving forward toward a goal!
Exciting times ahead – I’m sure you’ll keep us posted with regular updates. xx
Caroline, we need to get OPJ to Instagram so she can see what were all up too 😊🏠
Put your stairs for sale on Gumtree. We had loads of calls when we listed ours.

hello from the West Coast of Ontario Canada, thanks for the kind words about our Antiques (found in a fabulous Barn!)

GREAT NEWS! Hope everything starts flowing and working out just as you need!
Did you find a home for the timber battens?
Yes!!!! A lovely man and his son are renovating their house in Leichhardt (Ipswich). The money came in handy, it covered our first weeks rent.!!!!
Perfect! We will likely do something similar under ours 🙂
